Rising Fawn HD Club
Has Christmas Party
With Many Events
The Rising Fawn Home Dem¬
onstration Club met Tuesday
flight, December 19, at the home
of Mrs. H P. Dean with Twenty
members and one visitor pre¬
sent.
The house was decorated with
all Christmas fixtures and a
tree with lights, the mantle was
lined with pine, an angel in the
center and bubble lights, low
coffee table with snow scene,
radio cabinet with tree of color¬
ed balls, while the other mantle
was snow covered with Santa
Claus and sleigh on it. It was
all very pretty.
The group was called to order
by the President, Mrs. Dewey
Bradford. Mrs. L. M. Allison
read the Christmas Story which
was taken from St. Luke, and
then we had the Lord’s Prayer
by the group. The group sang
“Silent Night.” After which
they had a short business session
and each member gave ideas
on Christmas decorations and
had the party.
The Club had one game with
group no. 2 winning the prize, a
big stick of peppermint candy.
The Club gave Miss Vestel, the
home demonstration agent, Mrs.
H. P Dean, and Mrs. L. M. Alli¬
son, both former presidents, a
gift. Then the gifts which had
been placed under the Christ¬
mas tree were exchanged by the
members, each being blindfold¬
ed and picking up one. Miss
Vestel remembered the club with
pretty corsages which she must
have spent hours making We
appreciate them. We were all
very sorry MLss Vestel couldn’t
be with us at our Christmas
Party. The program was turned
over to the hostess and we all
marched around the table which
was decorated with a small
gum drop tree, candle light in
dinning room with red candles
in snowman holders, and served
ourselves. The cakes, which were
homemade, were delicious. The
hostess Mrs. Dean, and Mrs. M.
R. Wilson made the cakes.
We welcome new members and
visitors and urge all members
to attend each meeting.
The next meeting will be at
the home of Mrs. A. A. McMa¬
han.
Effective Erosion Control
Goal of Forestry Program
(Brown Co.—AFPI photo)
Rapid run-off from rain and melting snow will cause t;o
serious osion problems here. Trees are soil protectors.
f
Erosion control begins at the tree roots. That is why three
industry-sponsored movements, now breathing new life into
America’s forest future, mean much to soil conservationists
everywhere.
Keep America Green, the
American Treg Farm System
and More Trees for America, all
sponsored nationally by Ameri¬
can Forest Products Industries,
Inc., of Washington, D. C. are
dedicated to the principle of pro¬
tecting and producing trees for
use. Together these programs
spell better erosion control.
The dictionary defines erosion
as the wearing away of soil by
water. Erosion’s effects are evi¬
dent everywhere—muddy rivers
swelling up over their banks, hill¬
sides etched deep with ditches,
busy dredges sucking silt from
harbor bottoms. Erosion’s in¬
roads in the topsoil of the United
States, on which 150 million
Americans rely for food and
fabric, have been severe. »
Nature’s chief instruments in
erosion control are trees and
grasses. Their network of
spreading, tangled roots binds
loose topsoil, holding it firm
against tearing onslaughts of
water. Overhead, tree boughs
provide shade that regulates the

Modern man faces the difficult
task of maintaining nature’s
effective bulwark against erosion
while he harvests the trees end
■cultivates the grasslands to pro¬
vide food, clothing and shelter
necessary for existence. The
task, while delicate, is by no
means hopeless. Science,
through developments in land
and timber management, is prov¬
ing that man can use the prod¬
ucts of forest and prairie and at
the same time control erosion.
The solution, from a forestry
standpoint, lies in scientific log¬
ging, planned reforestation, ade¬
quate fire prevention and the
planting of lands that once pro¬
duced stands of timber. Thes >
are activities now being carried
out nationally under the banners
of Keep America Green, the
American Tree Farm System,
and More Trees for America.
Together these programs con¬
stitute the wood using indus¬
tries’ formula for ccntimu.I
