Mrs. Charlie Steed is home
and running around as usual
after having a spell in hospital
for minor surgery. She had a
birthday there—a wonderful one,
with so many flowers and candy
that it made her illness seem
almost worthwhile.
The lady visiting at the home
of Mrs. J. H. Brooks recently was
Mrs. Brooks’s sister, Mrs. Grady
Dean of Valdosta, Ga.
Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Crea of S.
Parkwood Dr. were hosts at a
dinner party on Saturday night
at their charming home. Guests
of honor were Mr. and Mrs. John
Chaknes of Atlanta. Several
other guests were present, and
a musical evening of classical
records followed.
Mr. and Mrs. Parker Brown
and Mr. and Mrs. Elton Bar
nette enjoyed a few days last
week-end in Florida. They vis
ited Homosassa Springs and Vero
Beach, fishing and resting. Com
ing home byway of Jackson
ville Beach, they were lucky to
visit the Aircraft Carrier Sara
toga, a thrill they will long re
member.
Sincere sympathy goes at this
time to Mrs. Mamie Smith, on
the death of her younger
brother, W. T. Cann of Rocking
ham, N.C. Mr. Cann suffered a
heart attack from which he did
not recover.
Your prayers are asked for
Mr. and Mrs. Johnny McGinnis
and their daughter Dianne.
Dianne is at Crawford W. Long
Hospital and is desperately ill.
Rev. and Mrs. Roland Perdue
are happy to report that their
baby son Mark is home after two
days in the hospital for minor
surgery and is doing just fine.

4-H PROJECTS
CAN BE GIANT
MONEY SAVERS
By BETTY CLARA GREER
Jonesboro Senior Club
A giant money-saver—that’s
what my 4-H Club clothing proj
ect has been! In this project, I
have saved my family many,
many dollars by making clothes
for myself, my family and other
people. I also helped by making
interior decorations for our
home.
You might ask, “How do you
get started sewing?” That is a
very easy process. You might go

to a sewing center and take a
course in sewing or you might
have a friend or 4-H Club leader
who sews that would show you
how. For sewing well, you need
to practice and practice. Don’t
feel bad if your first garment
doesn’t turn out like you wanted
it to—the next one might!
When I was very young, I
watched my mother sew all the
time. Sometimes she got mad at
me for bothering her so much,
but I don’t think she really
meant it. Once in a while she
would let me stitch a seam or
two, but they weren’t so straight
anytime. She usually ended up
doing them over again. Some
times when she went off and I
was left at home, I would get a
scrap of material and just make
a mess of it with the machine.
She usually knew I had played
with the machine, but she very
seldom said anything about it.
I suppose she was rather pleased
that I was interested in sewing.
Later she helped me make
clothes for my doll, then myself
and then other people. Now she
sews very seldom, and I do most
of the sewing for myself and my
family.
You ask, “Is there a real secret
t6' successful sewing?” Really,

there isn’t but you must be pa
tient, follow directions and do
not give up. If you happen to do
something wrong, don’t worry—
you can probably take it out and
do it again.
I have had sewing as my proj
ect for six years. Each year I try
to improve my sewing ability. I
think I have really improved it
in the past year. I have saved
my family more than $250 on
my clothes. So, 4-H has really
helped me!
