The four TwinbroOk Home

this month at the County Home
Demonstration Office. Mrs. Cath.
crime Rhoads, the Home Demon
stration Agent conducted the pro
gram entitled, "Rearranging
Equipment and Supplies in Your
Kitchen"
Mrs. Jane Wilson of Home
makers II, chairman of the re-
freshment committee, was assist
ed in her hostessing by Home
makers Korb and Cheslosky ID,
Erwin CID, Gregory and Collins
Gid, and Miller and Karshner
QV). The ladies found the in
struction valuable as well as in
teresting, but how much equip
ment actually will be moved, and
how far, will have to be reported
after a poll of their husbands can
be made.
The Bernard Place Sewing
Circle went all the way to Balti-
more for their meeting last week.
Very little sewing was accomp-
lished but the girls report that
ex-member Mary Schmidt is en-
joying her new house and baby.
Half a dozen families began
their holiday celebrations together
last night at the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Malcolm Morse. The lighting
of the first candle for Chanukah
was followed by group singing
and presents for the children.
Traditional dishes, potato pan
cakes with sour cream and
applesauce, fish and honeycake,
were served for supper.
Alice Wyckoff (of Rockcrest)
gave us a most pleasant surprise
last Saturday with her Musical
Play" = Little Red Riding Hood.
We hadn't read the fine print on
the tickets which we bought for
our 3-year-old who still takes
RRH as straight drama, so the
Junior Women's presentation of
Alice's Red Riding Hood and
Lynn Preston's Three Bears was
an unexpected pleasure for us as
well as the children.
A city sponsored ballroom
dance class will meet on Sunday
nights at the Rockcrest Field
House. The course is $3.50 per
couple for 10 weeks, and another
will be undertaken if this group
is oversubscribed.
Don't miss the showing of the
new print collection at the Lib
rary this Sunday between and
6 pm. The prints, which are
framed will be available just as
the books are to be enjoyed at
home. While we're on the subject
