FUTURE HCMEMAKERS CDF AMERICA I 0 The F. H, A, chapter set forth many worth- JW while goals to be carried out this year. Some of the goals are as follows: To encourage members J to attend all chapter and federation meetings, to , encourage the development of civil defense, to remember the aged in the community with gifts 'les'-i, ' X and cards, for chapter members to adopt little sisters in the ninth grade and explain F, H, A. to them, tohelpa needy family in the community. Chapter programs were planned to help carry out some of these goals. On December 9, the new members were in- X itiated into the club. After the initiation cere- l mony and the business session, the entire group went to the District Home in Chatham. Refresh- ments were served bythe group to the elderly people and e v e ryone joined in group singing, Everyone enjoyed the visit and felt a great satis- faction in knowing that they had brought a bit of joy to the aged. At Christmas time, the group fixed a box for a needy family in the community and presented it to them. The entire group is making plans and look- ing forward to the Mother and Daughter Banquet which will be held in March. This banque t is one of the highlights of the year for the chapter, 34

Ni '4 remember this senior class , was the remark at gf the beginning of the year--and thus it began. All le? 2 those jaunts in search of ads, sleepless nights for S95 . . li some responsible one s , and worn thin nerves ,1 Q A' proved not in vain. The dog-eared dummy was at last sent in near the deadline. The annual was entered in the S,I,P.A. and the Virginia High School League, This annual which was better than ever must come back with an award from some of these contests. The members attending the S.I.P.A, Conven- tion in Lexington had awonderful time, taking in everything, We know that we could not have accomplished A J' Y this had it not been for the guidance of our ever- faithful sponsor, Mr. Carter, whose cheerfulness at fir, and patience has kept us pulling through. The co- operation of the staff was necessary to complete this annual. It is our hope that we have responded adequately to the high calling of our task- -to cap- ture the highlights and the spirit of this school year and to preserve them forever on these pages . 36
