Home Extension Report
Makes Recommendations
More interest in senior citizens, an expanded program
to promote harmonious family living and more education
in proper nutrition are among the recommendations of home
extension unit members and workers for the coming year.
These recommendations and suggestions are contained in the
annual report of Jackson county extension services, the sec
tion on home extension having been the work of Miss Mary
Pat Lucy, agent for home economics. There are 24 home
extension units already operating in the county, and more
are in the process of being formed.
Members of the family and
community living committee
recommended the program be
adjusted to provide assistance
in the family living problems
which result from mothers
working outside the home, and
added that "there is a lack of
parent education and assist
ance should be offered in a
discussion of family living."
The problems of the aged
were also discussed in this
committee, the report states
There are now 8,000 Jackson
county residents past the age
of 60. The committee recom
mended that the extension
service show more interest in
these older people, become
more "neighbor conscious1
and work towards solving
some of their problems.
Nutrition Discussed
The group also discussed
nutrition problems and noted
that some individuals do not
function well because they are
poorly nourished, and that
others suffer from obesity. It
was therefore recommended
that the program on educa
tion in proper diet be further
explained.
Long-time objectives of the
home extension service were
listed as "to teach better nu
trition practices; to help de
velop more satisfying com
munity activities; to teach the
use of time and energy sav
ing methods; to teach people
how to be better clothed with
no increase in the money
spent; to promote better fami
ly understanding and teach
how to spend money to meet
essential needs.
Miss Lucy also reported on
recommendation of the Jack
son County Alumnae commit
tee of the home extension
units. This committee has
turned its attention to the
annual homemakers festival,
and believe that it could be
expanded in some fashion
which would interest the
families of members and edu
cate the community in the
purpose and program of the
home extension service.
Festival Planning
The committee recomend
ed that the festival be held
one evening, with the theme
to be "how far we have come
in home extension. It was
suggested that exhibits, skits,
a dress revue and a food
booth be included and that it
be made a gala, family-event.
A beginning on this type
of festival event was made
in 1957 with an open house
the evening before the main
festival.
Miss Lucy reviewed demon
strations and programs given
for units the past year. These
included material on how to
have a well fed family, with
lessons on seafoods,
bread, 1

weight control, freezing of
foods; how to manage the
home on a business-like basis,
with lessons on family busi
ness and the law, consumer
credit and money manage-
ment; and how to make homes
more attractive.
In the report Miss Lucy
noted that Jackson county
has a "very effective" county
committee representative of
the 661 members in the 24
units. In March of 1957 the
committee divided the 24 units
into seven districts, and each
county committe member now
represents a particular group.
The committeeewomen visit
these groups and offer advice
from time to time and they
assist the agent with program
planning, officers' training,
the homemaker's festival and
other activities.
The agent also reported on
work with the Rogue Valley
Handweavers' guild, on tele
vision and radio shows given,
on program planning sessions,
officers' training, and the par
ticipation of the extension
service in the Great Decisions
program, training of the Red
Cross canteen corps, coopera
tion with the Jackson County
Public Health association,
Girl Scouts and participation
in the 4-H program.

How well do you know your

ernment? Medford League of Women
Voters will start Wednesday
morning on a program de
signed to acquaint members
with the problems, personnel
and functions of Jackson
courrty government, accord
ing to the league president,
Mrs. Hugh Collins.
Mrs. Dunbar Carpenter,
Mrs. John Ousterhout, and
their "Know Your County"
'committee will present the
first section of their study to
the monthly league unit meet
ing at 9:45 a.m. Wednesday,
January 15, at the home of
Mrs. C. Elwood Hedberg,
1206 East Main street. Any
one interested in the league
and its program is cordially
invited to attend, Mrs. Collins
pointed out.
The steady growth of Jack
son county and the great shift
in population from city and
farm to "fringe areas" has
created an expanding role for
county government, she
states. On the theory that un
derstanding of current prob
lems depends on some knowl
edge of what's gone before,
committee members will re
port on the history and geog
raphy of Jackson county and
on recent changes in the pop
ulation and economy.
In addition to chronicling a
hundred years of growth in
the county, the study group
will discuss the relationship
of county and state govern
ment. The evening league
unit will hear the "Know
Your County" report January
27 at the home of Mrs. Jus
tin Smith, 21 Geneva street,
Mrs. Collins said.
Later reports to unit meet
ings will cover our system
