Colored Club Puts
On Fine Show
At Spenceryille

A fair at Spencerville, was
judged on October End by Mrs.
Hale Sehorn and the Home Dem
onstration Agent. Miss Ethel BIZ
anchi, Home Demonstration Agent
for the Colored Clubs has a right
to feel very much pleased when
she sees the fine quality work her
club members bring to a neighbour
hd 4 fair. The large basement hall
of the school was we'll filled. The
canned products were uniformly
excellent, jellies were of fine tex
ture, color and flavor and the bak-
ed products were of top quality.
1t is interesting to see how each
year the handiwork is of better
design and finish. A fine display
of ceramics by one of the club
members showed remarkable skill
in moulding and glazing these
articles. Smart, well-made beauti-
fully pressed garments were in the
clothing exhibit. The whole exhibit
showed fine planning and arrange
ment.

The Women's Auxiliary of the
Sandy Spring Volunteer Fire De-
partment which was reorganized
in February after being inactive

pointed for the election of officers
in January.
The present officers are Mrs
Herman Ladson, president; Mrs.
j. Justus Meyer, vice president;

An outstanding social event of
the busy weekend was the tea Sat
urday afternoon at the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas C. Kelley
celebrating the 50th anniversary
of the Jamestown Woman's Club.
The Kelley home, Pleasant Hills,
is very interesting place = the
565-acre farm is a part of an origi-
nal tract belonging to the Gassa-
way family at the time Montgom-
cry County was formed in 1915.
There was no record of a house at
that time-but it has been esti-
mated that the central part of the
present structure is about 1876
years old. Wings have been add
ed-and it has been undermined
but all is in keeping with the origi-
nal style. With its lovely random
width flooring and cleaning ma
hogany furniture it is a charming
home.
During the Civil War the place
was used as headquarters for the
Union troops = it was just after
the war ended that the farm came
into possession of the Kelley fam
lily.

Travilah : Jamestown
Homemakers' Fashion
Show Is Interesting

One of the most interesting
meetings of the year was the Ira
vilah Jamestown meeting held
on October 9th, at the home of
Mrs. Norman Mills in Ounce Or
chard. After dessert served the
46 members as they came, the
Club Clothing Chairman, Mrs.
Charles Clark, gave a talk on
"What the Consumer can find on
the Market in Fall Yard Goods. 1"
Mrs. Clark had swatches of mat
erial to illustrate her talk. She
told of the trends in clothing
styles and then climaxed every
thing by having some of the Home
makers model lovely dresses and
suits loaned to her and Mrs.
Shorb, President of the Club, by a
large store in our suburban area
of Bethesda.
Each model appeared in two or
more of the lovely garments. Mrs.
Bessie West appeared in a deep
plum colored dress and smart hat
that her friends felt was all that
anyone could wish for in style,
color, fabric and fit yet few
minutes later she modelled a love-
ly deep navy blue with an even
more becoming hat.
= Mrs. Paul Merrill was very
handsome in a smart Hunters
green suit with a most becoming
hat and accessories.
Mrs. Tom Kelly appeared in a
three piece suit and later in a
dress suit and was a charming
picture in both.
When Mrs. John Fawcett APP
peared in her lovely afternoon
dress with a SASSY" gay red hat,
IL seemed that she could never find
a second costume as lovely but in
her second appearance she had an
equally beautiful dress and hat
Mrs. Charles Clark, the clothing
chairman, modelled three dresses
that were most becoming.
The next day it is reported that
even the II. A. Agent went to the
store hoping to find as lovely
dress as was displayed by the Ira
vilah Darnestown models.

Among The
Honemukers

On September 10Th, the twenty
seventh club was formed in Der
wood when sixteen neighbors and
friends of Mrs. Eugene Hankel
came to the home of Mrs. R.. T.
Schwartz to discuss the matter of
having such an organization in
their area.
Mrs. Hankel was chosen as
chairman, with Mrs. Harry Nc
Gruder as secretary. After four
monthly meetings the group will
elect officers and join the County
Council. Five more ladies have
asked to join the sixteen charter
members.
On October 18th another group
will be formed at the home of Mrs.
Valentine, 9407 Montgomery Ave
nue., North Chevy Chase. AS the
agents goal is to have thirty clubs
by January, 1949, it looks as
though it might be reached. To
date the membership is 942.
Mrs. C, S. Piepgrass, of Dale
Drive, welcomed a large number
of the Silver Spring Homemakers
Club members on September 18th
at her home to a picnic luncheon.
After the social hour, the presi-
dent, Mrs. Walter Kirby, called the
meeting to order and the Home
Agent gave her talk. After the
meeting birthday gifts for all the
members were presented by the
chairman of this project, Mrs. Ed
win Kerr.
On October LIST Mrs. Howard
Smith conducted the monthly meet
ing of the Council officers made up
OF the presidents of the twenty-six
clubs and the official board of the
Council. The reports that the presi-
dents were to give on October 7th
were checked and the final details
CT the annual meeting were COM
pleted. All but three clubs were
represented.
When Miss Helen Shelby, cloth
ing specialist, comes to the County
to give a school, the project lead
ers are always glad to have a
chance to attend. This year she
told the Home Demonstration
Agent she would direct the making
of Kit of Belts to be used in A. H
Dress Schools and Homemakers
Schools, if ten women would work
for day. Five Homemakers and
five All Club leaders were asked
if they would come to give this
help. On October 9Th they met with
Miss Shelby and the Agents. They
learned to make fifteen different
types of belts. The Kit will be a
valuable addition to the illustra-
tive material in the Agents office.

John NJ, McGill of 1923 22nd
Street, N. W., Washington, D. c.,
has recently published a record of
over 400 years of the MacGill-
McGill family - beginning 1897
ending 1913. The book is primarily
a genealogical record-but in or
der to add to its interest and value
a few human interest stories and
as much historical data as possible
have been included. 1t is nice
history of a fine old Scottish fam
lily. Many Arundel, Howard and
Montgomery County names are
found in it. The Rev. James Mac
Gill was the founder of the family
in America,
From the book we learned the
location of Queen Caroline Parish:
"The mother church of ST. Johns,
Ellicott City, was Christ Church
located at Guilford, Howard Coun-
ty (then Anne ArundeD. This
church known as Queen Caroline
Parish was established by an Act
of Assembly in 1925" The bricl;
building which replaced the first
one still stands, and is one of the
historical markers of the county.

interesting.

Last week THE SENTINEL ran a
letter from a resident of East
Rockville who stated hiatt she did
not like to have her neighborhood
referred to as "Janetta." Perhaps
those who live in that section
would treasure the name if they
knew the story back of it and the
correct spelling and pronunciation.
We had this story years ago from
Mrs. Lee Offutt, and checked it
with her again this week.
"Janeta" was subdivided from a
farm which was the property of
Jane Harding Maddox, the second
wife of DR.. C. ]. Maddox, who sold
the first lot 70 Charlie Corrick, a
painter, previous to 1890. CorricE;
built the first house-just beyond
the wooden bridge. Later DR.. Mad
dox decided upon the subdivision
which he named in honor of his
wife. Mrs. Offutt says she recalls
how annoyed the old doctor was
when people started miscalling the
place "Jan-Etta" instead of the
correct pronunciation "Janeta"

HIGH

For very selfish reason we are just as
interested as you are in bringing prices
down. When you can't buy, we can't sell.
So your problem with the high cost of
living is our problem too. May we point
out some of the ways we can help?
By cutting out expensive "frills" we make
many savings. These savings allow us to
price everything low, every day.
But that's not all. Our advertising can help
you too. It tells about the foods which are
in season. those which are the best buys
right now.
On meats too. You get more value in every
pound when you buy our trimmed before
weighing kind. Because we price fruits and
vegetables by the pound, you can buy ex-
actly the amounts you need. You cut waste
and save again. A oney-back guarantee
on everything we sell protects you against
loss on any purchase.
We believe shopping regularly at Safeway
will help reduce your cost of eating. Win
