WHY NOT cocHlse?

Having the privilege Of the Uni
versity Extension Service why does
Cochise county fail to take advan-
tage of it? A reporter for the
Prospector Epitaph interviewed Miss
Elsie Toles. our County School Su-
perintendent, and this is what Miss
Toles said in part:
The University Extension Ser
vice has been at the disposal of the
people of Arizona for a little less
than year. Until just recently
little or no work was done in Co
chise County. especially along lines
interesting TO women. This is I'M
fortunate, because the Extension
Services provides a clearing house
for practical ideas. especially appli
cable to Arizona conditions. The
members sot only themselves work
but the problems presented TO them
but they pass On from woman to wo-
man. and county to county. the best
in the experience of other house
keepers.
Mrs. Mary p. Lockwood Is head
of the Home Economics Department.
and Miss Hazel Zimmerman. special
representative for Pima, Graham.
Pinal and Coohise Counties These
women are constantly al the service
of the Arizona women Whenever
called upon. they are prepared TO
give courses in Child Welfare. food
conservation. dietetics. millinery, re-
modelling of clothes. and every other
subject allied to efficiency in home
management. In addition. they
conduct an extensive correspond
ence with housekeepers over the
state. in regard to economical re-
cipes. conservation of food. house
keepers, time. money and energy.
They have also prepared a course
in Home Economics that can be
carried on in any woman's organiza-
ton. and especially answers the
needs of housekeepers who are anx-
ious to help the government at this
time.
Both Mrs. Lockwood and Miss
Zimmerman accompanied me on re-
cent trips. on which we urged the in
PRODUCTION Of hot lunches in the ru-
raj schools. as a step towards bet
tering the work of rural children.
From time to time / hope to bring
one or both CT them to the county
to work in conjunction with me.
IF the women of the county take
kindly to the idea. We may hope for
a woman county agent for Cochise
county alone Maricopa already has
one, and the need of this county
is certainly as great. A resident
Hcme Economics agent working in
conjunction with the superintendent
can do much TO bring about pleasant
er and better conditions in both rural
schools and rural homes
