Homemaking education consists not only of sew- ing and cooking but family relations, housing a fam- ily, health, home care of the sick, first aid, and child development. It is a preparation of youth and adults for the occupation of homemaking. Home and family life affects the workers in all fields and oc- cupations. Homemaking education enables the in- dividual to asstune the responsibilities of homemaking. The main events during the year were the Date with Dad, Mother and Daughter Tea, Family Together, The girls in homemaking served at sev- eral banquets, among other activities.
