The third meeting the FHA attended was the annual sub-district meeting at Marianna. Three girls were in competition at this meeting. Of those three, Carla Phipps was selected to compete in the State FHA meeting in Little Flock during the month of March. In October, the FHA once again sponsored the annual T-Bird Beauty Revue. This activity teaches the members I organization, responsibility, and it prepares them to be good leaders. , In March, the girls began to use their 'f knowledge-learned as they put on the FHA Banquet, for their mothers. The FHA members bring salads and dessens while the Chapter supplies the rest.
