No special program was carried out for the entire time was given to the demonstration pro cedure by the agent. Mrs. Stallworth brought with her a collection of pictures of cur tains which were passed around among the members and many of the' girls selected a model by which they wished to make curtains for their bedroom. Mrs. Stallworth also lectured on materials and de signs for curtains. She brought a laundry bag so some of the girls could use it as a pattern if they liked but each girl has the privil ege of selecting her own type of laundry bag. Pillow cases and one laundry bag, made by the girls were exhib ited at this meeting. Then after plans were made for the girls to go to rally day, the meeting ad journed. Quite a number from our school attended Rally Day of the 4-H clubs at McCormick on last Sat urday. An intej-jesting program was given and a good time was reported by all who were there. Mr. W. H. Wooten attended an agricultural conference in Ridge Spring recently. Mrs. L. V. Mayer has returned to school after several weeks’ ab sence on account of mumps. We are indeed glad to have her back and yet we regret to give up Miss Lillie Dowtin who substituted for Mrs. Mayer. S. C.
