TO PARTICIPATE IN
EDUCATIONAL EVENTS
Most of us have more
meetings than we can
possible attend; however, we
continue to urge local folks to
accept educational
workshops and meetings
when they cover particular
interests or enterprises.
Many business concerns, as
well as those working in the
educational field, hold
meetings and seminars for
producers and local citizens.
Most of these are very useful
and considerable practical
information is given. The
practices connected with
agriculture, home grounds,
and gardening are con
stantly changing; new
methods and materials are
being developed. Many of
these can be accepted by a

TO USE
CORRESPONDENCE
COURSES
Pennsylvanians have a
real easy opportunity to
leam more about a number
of subjects by way of Penn
State’s correspondence
courses; they are offered in
many subject matter areas
such as agriculture, family
living, and community
development. These are
lessons that are sent by mail
from Penn State at a
nominal charge. Thousands
of Pennsylvanians have
already benefited from this
type of informal education;
the lessons, can be studied
and answered
during leisure time, when
the student goes about his or
her daily work respon
sibilities. A circular ex
plaining these courses is
available from any Ex
tension office.
