The members are referred to as Future Homemakers of America and the letters F. H. A. are used to designate the club. The club ban- ner with red letters on a white felt background was received this year. The aim of home economics is to help prepare young people to work intelli- gently for the improvement of the homes and of the society of which they are a part. Home economics should help pupils to realize that homemaking is an impor- tant and dignified vocation in which its members should take great pride and sat- isfaction. Today home economics trained people are called into many fields such as business, art, advertising, and journalism. The club was represented in Topeka at the District I Convention by Jeanne Knox, Margaret Russell, Elsie Marquis, and Ellen Milton. A poster of pictures taken at the convention was displayed in the drug store window. The state conven- tion was held April lO. Some of the girls are planning to attend the national convention which will be held in Kansas City in July. During the year the girls enjoyed parties for different occasions in their club and also a picnic for which each girl invited a guest. On May 5 the girls en- tertained their mothers and friends at a Fashion Review displaying their work. FMMIY F000 BUYER lnvmmsms-lzuvs nsrs Gm MMM OPINION Qgb J igai 4,593 H I j -5 t X -U? .
