Home Agent Is
Starting Work
In Ashe County
Miss Rose ElwOod Bryan Ag-
ent-at-Large, Is Doing Or
ganizatiOn Work Here.
All CAMP OPENS MONDAY

Miss Rose Elwood Bryan, OF
the State College Extension de-
partment, who is County Home
Demonstration Agent-at-large in
N. c. arrived this week to begin
organization work in the county.
Miss Bryan who has made an
outstanding record for her work
in this field has been with the
State College Extension division
for more than three years and
previous to that time was the
home agent in Durham county for
nine years.
She came here at the request
of the women of the county who
felt the need for home agent and
will do organization work in the
county until Sept. l. It is hoped
by that time sufficient funds will
be raised to secure a permanent
home agent. Much of the needed
funds have been raised and those
who have not made a contribu-
ton to the cause are asked to do
so.
Miss Bryan who has worked in
Buncombe and other counties in
Western North Carolina said that
she was very happy to come to
Ashe. She started meeting with
groups this week. She will meet
with a group of women at Grassy
Creek tomorrow afternoon at the
home of Mrs. Clyde Cox. All of
the women of the community are
invited to attend.
Miss Bryan and Mr.. Quessen-
berry will leave on Monday with
a group of All boys and girls to
spend a week at the Swannoa
camp. All members Of the All
clubs who are interested in 60
ing and have not made applica-
ton to Miss Bryan or Mr.. Ques-
senberry are requested to do so
at once.
The following Monday, July %,
a group including Miss Bryan,
Mr.. Quessenberry and others will
go to Raleigh for the Short
Course. At the present six peo-
pie from this county have indi-
Gated that they will attend.
The Farm and Home week will
open August 4 and continue
through August 8, Miss Bryan
said.
