(UPD Fu ture Homemakers of America think that the main course in a woman's life marriage should be seasoned with edu cation and a career. The FHA, a national organi zation of students studying home-making in high schools, held a convention here recent ly to discuss the value of an education, career opportuni ties in home economics, be coming better citizens, im proving human relations and broadening spiritual values. Some 450 teen-agers repre senting 475,000 members throughout the United States, Hawaii and Puerto Rico, and 150 adult advisers attended the sessions, feverishly taking notes to tell the proceedings to their home chapters. " The girls freely . expressed their views on the role of education in a career and marriage. At the end of one session, the girls concluded: "Education is the backbone for marriage or career." The delegates also decided that marriage could be con sidered a career, or full-time work, but that a wage-earning job was much different. The consensus was that a working wife should give her home responsibilities prece dence over job obligations, and the teen-agers did not ap prove of a mother going to work until her children were school age. Pat Stephens, Hot Springs, Ark., president of her state chapter, said the girls, in gen eral, wanted a "formal educa tion, then a career and finally marriage." Pat said her group rated the three most important fac tors for a successful marriage as companionship, adaptabil ity and determination that it should succeed. With the help of adult ad visers and other FHA leaders, Pat prepared a questionnaire on vocations. It advised FHA'ers to seek work suitable to their personalities; to select a job within the range of their mental abilities, yet challenge talent to the utmost; to have their talents evalu ated my an unprejudiced pro fessional if they wanted a ca reer in the arts; and to dis tinguish between their own and their parents choice of work. Mrs. Helen Mandigo, home For! u FAMOUS NAME IMPORTED -WEATER. ii service director of the Gai Service company here, said "more and more jobs ar opening up in business" for, the home economics college graduate. Salaries start at $200 or $250 per month and range up to $1,000 or higher for experienced professionals, she said. One of the greatest demands now is for home economics teachers. Other job opportunities were mentioned in the fields of product testing for food companies, research for manu facturing firms, textiles, die tetics and extension service.
