Br. G. Burton 'Wood, Oregon
State college, will speak, and
Miss Mary Jlouth, clothing spe
cialist will bring greetings from
Oregon State college.
Miss Routh joined the OSC
extension service this year after
several years as clothing special
ist with the Texas extension ser
vice. From 1940 to IMS she was
a county home demonstration
agent in Texas.
Miss Routh received her bach
elor's degree in home economics
from Texas State College for
women and her master's degree
in textiles and clothing from
Columbia University's Teachers'
college.
Miss D. Eula Wintermote,
Jackson county home demonstra
tion agent, states that while this
week is the 10th National Home
Demonstration week, the annual
festivals have a much older his
tory in Oregon. As far back as
1933 counties held a homemak
ers' day, which were program
planning days with fun, style
stones musk and spsaisirs aj&
ed. The festival idea was a result
ef World War II. Annual home
interest conferences at OSC
were drawing more than 1,000
women a year when war time
travel restrictions brought them
te an end. In their place ,the
counties instituted the Home
makers' festivals. These have
proven so popular that they are
being, held in all 30 of the coun
ties with home extension agents.
Miss Wintermote points eut
that the annual week provides
an opportunity to interpret the
work of the entire extension ser
vice.. Recognition of volunteer
local leaders who have contrib
uted to home and community
improvement is always an im
portant feature of the week.
During 1955 the program will
emphasize the importance oe
wise management decisions in
home and family living; increase
an awareness of the influence ef
the home on the character and
personality f youth; help ce
sumers develop skills and
change attitudes in the selection,
buying and using food and
fiber; assisted families ia undet
