Ttinhlics vvho through-the-years.
Bjactually wjUl have an opportunI
ity to spend a ^ brief vacation
period in it. The home reprrsents
I an entirely new educational apI
proach to the problem of imI
proving rural housing.
Dedication speaker was Dis Mfcrict
Ap nt A. H. Ward of the
I South Carolina Extension SerI
vice who praised Mrs. Marian
B. Paul, State supervisor of No-i
ero home demonstration work J
her staff .and the rural women's
clubs for their part in getting
the home constructed and furn,

State' home demonstration agent ;j

demontsbation work; Mrs. Eva G.
Lawrence, home agent of Wil-j
liamsburg County where the|
home is situated; an dV. B. Tho-j
mas, fhrm agent of the same
county.
.The idea for such a home
where farm families may come<
and live and learn about, plan-1
ning, building, furnishing, and
^maintaining a .modern, rural
home was conceived by Mrs.
Paul six year? ago. She took her
idea to the Oenjeral Education
Board and was granted $7,500.
'for the prOj^A; ttOTho rlpmnnstra.
-tnm^clubsTand business firms in
j the region contributed the rest
of the fimds and,, furnishings for
t tlie model home. They gave tim|
ber, an electric pump, rugs, bedspreads,
towels, and material for
draperies. ?
Mrs. Paul says that one
young farm family in each of
the 30 counties where a home
agent is employed-will be se
lccted each year yt gp?n#i :?

fall ^nd) Ia*? sprthg. During
the summer 4-U girls will be-"
K cupy the home. A full-tim;
I > home management worker is
to be employed.
mi_r Objectives of the demonstraI
tion house, says Mrs. Paul, are:
BByH?to molivat'.' '.lis fartultes "ttr
improve their homes; (2) to train
H_Jthe women in better methods of
horn? managcmi-nt and in the
I use of labor saving devices, (3)
I to develop a model lawn, garM.
den, and poultry flock, and (4)
I to make th*? house useful for
