In the year 1917 the Congress of the United States enacted a program of aid to vocational instruction whereby the Department of Agriculture established in schools across the country both the Future Farmers of America and the feminine counter-part of this organization-The Future Homemakers of America. The Millcreek chapter of the latter, sponsored by the active Miss Parini had a busy season with many activities such as miniature footballs for the annual Save-An-Eye-Game and maintaining a candy, packing Christmas baskets and dressing dolls for needy families as a Christmas project, and entering a kitchen planning contest. On a state wide level, fifteen girls represented our F.H.A. at a Region A meeting held at Indiana State Teachers College, and later on in the year four more gained the privilege to attend another at Pittsburgh through diligent work and outstanding progress. I In its purpose to teach the young women of today the basic fundamentals of home- -making like baby care, sewing, family management, and meal planning the Millcreek F.H.A. has succeeded admirably thanks to a great extent, of course, to its sponsor Miss Parini. 85
