Pm giving a sweet sixteen luncheon party for my best friend, Marge. I want to enjoy the luncheon — I don’t think hostesses should be kitchen-kept during their own parties. Any suggestions for organizing? A, You're quite right — no one enjoys a party when the hostess is huffing and puffing between kitchen and table. So be the hostess-with-the-mostess. Prepare foods that require little or no work the day of the party. This way you can greet guests at the door instead of putting frantic last-minute touches on your food. A relish tray, for in- stance, and cold hors-d’oeuvres makes more sense than fancy hot canapes. Have fun with the luncheon. Try informal, gaily colored paper plates with match- ing or contrasting Kleenex din-~ ner napkins — in avocado green, Persian blue, or antique gold. And ask a couple of the girls fo pitch in and help — they'll .be flattered that you asked. Q. Is there any help for a Skinny Minnie? If Twiggy’s fashionable, I'm even more so! ‘The worst part is my storklike ‘Begs. What can I do? A. Stop worrying! Remember the old saying, “Fat people are Jolly”? Well it’s true. Fat peo- ple aren't burning calories through nervousness or worry. If you can’t eat at mealtime or ff you're stuffed. after one bite, try eating more often.

Pre- scription for those legs: Exer- cise! Stand straight, weight dis- tributed evenly over both feet. Raise yourself on the balls of your feet, then back down. Re- peat this 50 times each day. Good for muscle tone! Q. My hands are so red and calloused I'm ashamed to let them show. I encase them in gloves; or sit on them, or hold them behind my back. Mom says I must do my share of the housework and this includes doing dishes. Speed advice — please! A. Your hands will be creamy smooth for dreamy dances if you remember to use hand lo- tion whenever you do dishes, before bed, and first thing in the morning. Thin-skinned hands receive more wear and tear than any other part of our bodies — because they're washed more often. To make life easier for hands, use Hand- gard disposable gloves while you're doing the dishes or giv- ing nylons. their nightly wash- ing. An extra dollop of lotion before you put on the gloves makes for smoothness too!

THE PAST month has been agreeable weather from the human standpoint but has: been a bit open and dry from the standpoint of trees and vegetation. The hard freezes on open ground plus drying winds could have done some damage; the ground is quie dry and this means that the trees and shrubs may dry out much faster. Those that are mulched have more pro- tection. There may have been some damage to winter grains but it is too early to evaluate this item. Many of our fruit growers report the fear of heavy damage to peach trees and buds due to the extreme cold weather a- round the Holiday Season. The weather is still the un- certain factor in modern ag- riculture. AT MANY of our educational meetings for farmers the word ‘“management’ is men- tioned as a very important factor in successful agricul- ture. Operations with good management will succeed while those with poor man- agement will have many problems. Management has been defined as the handling of land, labor, ma- terials, and capital. The co- ordination of these items in- to a profitable business re- quires time and effort. We urge farmers to make special effort to do farm planning and to organize their opera- tions. The ability to get things done on time is very important, There will be some educational meetings on management in the future; we hope that many farmers will recognize .its importance and try to be better manag- ers. AT A RECENT educational meeting of pleasure horse owners held by our Extension Service the problem of in- ternal parasites was discus- sed by one of our Extension Specialists. He pointed out that the problem was one that could include nearly 100% of our horse and pony population; there are several types of equine internal para- sites that will reduce the growth of horses and ponies. With the horse population on the increase it is possible that this worm infestation could get worse. It is urged that equine owners give some attention to this prob- lem and perhaps submit a mals to their local veterin- arian. Nearly all species of farm animals are susceptible to internal parasite infection, but we have: net given en- ough attention to this‘matter in horses and poni€s. t= Manheim School ‘Arts’ Program “The Arts,” a program about art and music appre- ciation in the elementary schools, will complete a ser- ies of Stiegel-Burgard P.T.A. presentations attempting to give a total picture of the child’s education.

Program for ’67-68 will be a variety show presented by the par- ents and teachers on Tues- day, April 16, 1968. SCHOOL LUNCH PROGRAM During the year about 16 million hot lunches will be eaten on an average school day. If your child attends a participating school, he can get a bargain in good eating. The program is administered by the U. S. Department of Agriculture in cooperation with the state education agen- cies. Some schools, however, are currently unable to par- ticipate because they lack the necessary kitchen and serving facilities. Groups interested in community improvment projects might find out what their schools need for parti- cipation, and help them se- cure it. No one does a full day's werk anymore. No one else, that is.
