Maria Whitaker and Mrs. Susie
Poole led the girls. Mrs. Pool, hav-
ing raised sheep and being a fine
seamstress, lectured on wool and its
merits and how to judge garment
as to best material for best wear
ing qualities. She stressed looking
at your labels for kind of wool in
garments, such as virgin, reproc-
essed, ETC., she showed swatches of
some of the newer ones, including a
summer one, since wool will absorb
as much as one-third its weight in
moisture, therefore being much
cooler.
Miss LEM served toll house cook
les which she had made, also potato
chips, candy and punch. These girls
will be better homemakers for hav-
ing been active All workers. This
group is fortunate in having these
fine ladies as leaders and they well
come any girl who is willing to
study hard to achieve.
