HOME DEMONSTRATION
ITEMS
(Elsie Bowman)
DISTRICT CONFERENCE
Ten officers of the County Home
Demonstration Council attended n
district conference on leadership in
Athens on Monday, February 17th,
to receive more definite information
concerning their particular job as a
council officer. Jackson County
made a fine showing at the meeting.
The ones representing the County
here were: Mrs. H. C. Baird, Presi
dent of the County Council, Miss
Geraldine Cash, Secretary and Treas
urer, Mrs. E. L. Howard, Poultry
Chairman, Mrs. J. B. Williamson.
Dairying Chairman, Mrs. Broad us
Cash, acted as nutrition chairman in
the absence of Mrs. June Wages;
Mi-s. Jewell Williamson represented
the County Home Improvement
Work, Mrs. Ben Martin represented
marketing, Mrs. Colquitt, Child De
velopment representative; Mrs. J. C.
Head, Home Industries representa
tive, Mrs. F. B. Spencer as 4-H Club
Leader, or sponsor. The meeting
was very profitable and encouraging
to the Home Agent and county lead
ers. These leaders came back with
a fuller realization and a deeper ap
preciation of the opportunities we
have in Extension work.
The following is a narrative of
kitchen improvement carried out by
Mrs. George Shackelford of Attica
Home Demonstration Club as she
gave it. on the county radio program
last week.
“I wonder if most farm women !
like myself do not spend some time
day dreaming of things we’d like to
have and do, things that would make
our homes more attractive and moTe
convenient, our work lighter and i
more enjoyable, who seldom do any I
more than dream of these things.
“I have been longing for a more
convenient kitchen, a place where I
could enjoy working, a concentrated
unit instead of walking all over the
kitchen continuously while preparing
a meal. I decided to do something
about it. My kitchen is a large
square room. It had one large win
dow on the outside wall and a small
one opening on the porch on the op
posite side. First I had the largo
window removed and made casement
windows of the two sashes—the win
dows are now directly over the sink
which was, beforehand, rather dark.
The easement windows furnish as
mudf~t>r more light for the entire
loom. Around the windows, I plan
ned my working unit.
I found an old counter in our old
store house whose top made an ex
cellent table top. I removed all
sides measured the desired length
, and height for the best working
j spaces. This I placed under the
windows up to the sink with enough
| space extending beyond the windows
on one side for a wall cabinet. Again
I saved by using an old safe. I re
moved the legs from this old safe
which, by the way, has a drawer be
neath the cabinet part where I keep
silver, it being divided into three
sections. I have kept an old dresser
drawer 15 years. This I inserted in
the center front of the cabinet. I
needed another smaller drawer for
dish towels so I attempted to make
one. The first one would not fit so
well, so by profiting by that mistake,
I was able t*do a good one the next
time which slides in and out very
nicely. For the doors I used beaver
board, framed with three inch strips,
using mitered corners. There are
two double doors and one single
door, one large drawer and one
smaller drawer at the front of the
base cabinet. I ceiled and floored
all the base cabinets to make them
mouse proof. I needed another
cabinet; a tall one on the other side
of the sink to balance with the other
end of cabinets but I didn’t feel
equal to the task.
“I waited to get someone tv) make
the other cabinet for me but as no
one seemed available on account of
flu, I decided to make another ven
ture. I was very successful. I made
this cabinet 6 feet by 3% feet and 1
foot deep. There are four shelves
in the top part and space enough in
the bottom to hang pans. After
giving the whole thing a good sand
papering and filling old nail holes
with putty (for I used old lumber
for the whole unit) I gave it four
coats of white enamel which makes
a good varnish. I used a touch of red
on the knobs and pulls to match the
red and white curtains over the
windows. I covered the top of the
cabinets with white oil cloth, placed
the refrigerator against a side wall
at the end of the cabinets. It, of
course, is white and so is my stove.
I forgot to say T will build a cabi
net under the sink for dish pans and
to hang dish cloths. All this is not
only a great labor saving device, but
makes my kitchen more attractive.
TALMADGE NAMES S. C. UPSON

I gives me a better spirit to work,
and makes me happier.
“To make the single window into
casement windows cost $4.00, the
cost of the cabinets and paint came
to S2.GO; nails and hinges were
$0.40, and oil cloth was $0.60, so
the total cost of my cabinets which
line one whole length of my kitchen
amounts to $7.60.
“Many people have asked about
my grill and I would like to tell you
something concerning it, too. Some
few years ago my hopes were built
on an outdoor oven, a place under
the trees where I might cook,a meal
Indian style when I became tired of
the kitchen, but it seemed I was
never able to get anyone to make it
for me. I hired a man to haul na
tive rock, make morter and do the.
lifting and in less than a day the
job was completed. It looks as well
as a professional job and the chim
ney draws better than a lot I have
seen. I enjoy cooking out there,
smelling the oak smoke, sitting under
the trees enjoying the things nature
has so lovingly provided for us.
“The cost of the oven including
the hired man came to only $1.50.
Besides, I got a lot of good exercise
I needed and which to me, was profit
also.”

Who Must File Income Tax
Returns
Washington. Some 15,000,000
persons—B,ooo,ooo of them for the
first time—are expected to file fed
eral income tax returns thia year.
The vast increase in the number
of folks reporting their income to
Uncle Sam ik the result of changes,
made by Congress in the basis of
liability for making a return. Those
required to file returns on or before
March 15 include:
1. Every single person having a
gross income of SBOO or more.
2. Every married person, not liv
ing with wife or husband, having a
gross income of SBOO or more.
3. Every married person, living
with wife or husband, having an ag
gregate gross income of $2,000 or
more.
Some 9,000,000 who make returns,
it is figured, will escape paying a tax
because allowable exemptions and
deductions will leave them without a
taxable income.
Take the case of a man living with
his wife and one dependent child
and having a net earned income of
$2,500. He has an exemption of
$2,000 for being the head of a fami
ly, S4OO exemption for a dependent
and $250 deduction as a 10 per cent
credit on earned income. Since
these exemptions and deductions,
total $2,650, or $l5O more than his
net income, he pays no federal tax.
On the other hand, a single man
with no dependents and a net earn
ed income of $1,400 pays a $20.24
tax. It’s figured this way: He gets
SBOO exemption plus $l4O earned in
come credit. After a total deduc
tion of $940, his taxable income is
$460. At 4 per cent his normal tax
is $18.40. The new defense tax is
10 per cent of the $18.40, or $1.84.
making a total tax of $20.24.

James Allen Garrard, Sr., 80, re

Atlanta for 32 years, died Monday

rard, in Atlanta.
Other survivors include two other
sons, J. A. Garrard, Jr., of Nash

Hapeville; three daughters, Mrs.

UNEMPLOYED WORKERS GET
$944.42
Job insurance in the amount of
$944.42 was paid to unemployed
workers in Jackson County by the
Bureau of Unemployment Compen
sation in January, Commissioner of
Labor Ben T. Huiet has announced.
Number of benefit checks was re
ported at 157.
For the state as a whole, Mr.
Huiet reported that total payment 1 *
dropped to $244,666, the lowest level
since November of 1939. Thirty-six
thousand six hundred eighty-one
checks issued during the month was
likewise the smallest number since
that time.
Decrease in benefit payments was
attributed largely to increased em
ployment opportunities due to the
National Defense program. The
Georgia State Employment Service
was reported to have filled 8,216
jobs, anew January record and arv
increase of 20 per cent over Decem
ber. Analysis of placements made
by the 32 local offices showed 7,422
were in private employment and 794
on Public Works jobs.
