Newspaper Page TextEMC's Woman's Day Event Was Highly Entertaining By Mrs. Alma Redman Butts County WTF Publicity Chairman All hearts were young and gay at Central Georgia EMC Woman’s Day held on May 11. 1976. From the heart warming devotional given by Mrs. Adeal Maddox entitled “Make Somebody Happy,” the gist of which was “take a little honey,” to the special recognition of Mrs. T. D. Weems for meritorious ser vice, to the delightful program, it was a gala occasion. The piece’ de resistance’ was a demonstration of “Getting The Most From Your Microwave Oven” presented by Mrs. Karen Witzleben, home economist, W. D. Alexander Company. With a magician’s skill, scrambled eggs appeared before our eyes in 45 seconds. Crisp bacon cooked between sheets of paper toweling materialized at the rate of one slice per minute. Mrs. Witzleben made the point that when cooking quantity, add time. Nutritious vegetables, cas seroles and a roast were things of beauty as well as delicious, and were prepared before our eyes in a matter of minutes. Then presto! A cake appeared in four minutes. The demonstration was an Epicurean’s dream and a homemaker’s delight. One could almost believe that Mrs. Witzleben had rubbed Aladdin’s lamp, so marve lous were the results. Now a panorama greeted our eyes. Mrs. Sara Jean Ponder, consumer relations specialist, West Point Pep perell, presented a unique history lesson in the form of a fashion show depicting two hundred years of American fashion. Did you know that the Pilgrims, though usually subdued in their dress, sometimes wore brown or orange? Moving swiftly from the dress of wealthy colonial women with their elegance enhanced by panniers, the display revealed the authen tic dress of the woman who moved westward wearing her sunbonnet to protect her skin from the sun since there were no moisturizers in that day. The pioneer woman, dressed in apron and cap and barefoot, was suitably garb ed for working on the frontier. The 1800’s witnessed the Empire gown reminiscent of the high waist. In 1849, denim was introduced on the American scene. There were two types the wishy-washy and the All American denim. The antebellum skirts got fuller and fuller. Steel cage crinoline supported hoops added to the fullness of the "This is the set with everything" <t3£& ROBYII IfTsaxOl CB MOBIL TRANSCEIVER with BUILT-IN HOME INTERCOM I39 95 Communication outside and inside your home! 3-position switch permits monitoring through inter com or PA. 23 channel lighted dial, noise limiter switch. Includes CB radio, antenna, PA speaker.WV23P skirt. However, during the Civil War the hoops had to be slimmed down. The bicycle built for two promoted the Bloomer Girl look which was really the first pants suit. 1870 saw the advent of the bustel remini scent of the illustrations of Little W'omen. The Gay 90’s produced leg of mutton sleeves and the small waist. The Gibson Girl was an idealization of the American girl of the 1890’s as portrayed by Clarke Dana Gibson. The waist line dropped and the bosom bulged during the 1900’s. With the passage of the nineteenth amendment, fashion taboos went out the window and the flat-chested, Charleston swinging Flapper emerged. So did the one piece bathing suit. In 1930 the Jean Harlow look with platinum blond hair was reincarnated. During this period, movie stars were imitated and women achieved a natural shape. The 1940’s with its mascu line look has been America’s least interesting fashion period. The padded bra and return of the crinoline were highlights of the 1950’5. In the 1960’5, known as the Space Age, designers forgot that anyone but teenagers existe MADDOX CLAN MET SUNDAY FOR REUNION On Sunday, May 16th, the Masonic Lodge at Worthville was the meeting place for the children, grandchildren and greatgrandchildren of the late Mr. and Mrs. Glen Maddox for their annual reunion. Fifty-five were present to enjoy the day together. The adults did a lot of reminis cing of things that had happened since last year; their children engaged in ball games with a few grown ups joining in. At the noon hour a sumptuous and delicious dinner was enjoyed by everyone. Those present were: Mr. and Mrs. Law rence Maddox, Mr. and Mrs. Curry Cawthon, Mr. Cecil Maddox and Mike, Miss Renee Maddox, of Forest Park; Mr. and Mrs. Frank O’Neal, Mr. and Mrs. Jim Braley and Joseph, Mr. Glen Maddox, of Atlanta. Mr. and Mrs. Randall Maddox of Morrow, Mr. and Mrs. Mike Maddox- of LaGrange, Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Maddox, Miss Cindy Maddox, Trent, Bill and Jim, of Warner Robins; Mr. and Mrs. Wayne Stowe, Matt and Marc of Covington, Miss June Maddox of Milledge ville. Mrs. Madge Pickett, Mrs. THE JACKSON PROGRESS-ARCUS, JACKSON, CEORCIA THURSDAY. MAY 20, 1976 ed. Typical of this period were hot pants. With the advent of the midi-skirt, which women rejected, the reign of the Paris couturier came to an end. During this time the caftan, sheath and the oriental look became popular. Such fabrics as duck and knits came into vogue. Mrs. Ponder spoke of garments made from sheets, quilted bedspreads and blan kets. Dr. Joyce Brothers says that the sexiest woman today is the home sewer. Models in the fashion show were Ellen Boyd, Patsy Cook, Carol Ham, Betty Lewis, Rita Mangham, Grace Meredith, Livia O’Hara, Ann O’Neal, Marilyn Poole. Carol Potter, Carol Weaver, Janice Cronic, Joan Gilbert, and Blanche Wilson. Mrs. Ponder narrated the show in a humorous, know ledgable and animated man ner. So entertaining was the exhibit that the time fairly flew. Door prizes were awarded to Plina Mays, Martha Weaver, Nadine Menz, Elena Carter, Ruby Thomas, Eliza beth Finley, and Johnsie Smith. An appetizing luncheon was served the guests at the close of the meeting. Mozelle Jones, Mr. and Mrs. Bill Maddox, Mr. and Mrs. Doug Brooks and Betsy, Mr. Rebon Maddox, Mrs. Ed Pickel, Marty and Wendy, Mr. and Mrs. Tommy Presley, Kim and Tonya, Mr. and Mrs. Levie Maddox, Mr. and Mrs. Stanley Maddox, Stan and Andy, Mr. and Mrs. Neil Earnhart, Dean and Dale, and visitors, Mrs. Lena Mason and Mrs. Callie Lunsford, all of Jackson. The highlight of the day was Miss Renee Maddox opening graduation and wedding gifts. She will be graduating from high school and then getting married on the 29th of May. county forestry units.
