Show Former Deltan Is Honored By National Body An article in the Salt Lake Tribune Trib-une Wednesday tells that Mrs. Susie Sanford Cook has received national recognition for her work as county home demonstration a- gent. There was only one flaw in the news story from our point of view, and that was that failed to add that Mrs. Cook was a former Deltan. She is now liing at Evan-ston, Evan-ston, Wyoming. Mrs. Cook received the distinguished, distingu-ished, service award in Chicago Nov. 30, at the special recognition dinner of the National Home Demonstration De-monstration Agents Assn. Federal Director of Extension M. L. Wilson made the award. She was one of the 48 home dem onsration agents from 31 states and Puerto Rico, and one of five western division agents so honored She was selected by a state recognition re-cognition committee for the balance bal-ance and variety of her program, quality of work, and increase in club membership. To qualify, she had completed 10 years of work in the field. She' is the second Wyoming home denmonstration a-gent a-gent to be so honored and has served as president of the Wyoming Wyo-ming home demonstration agents for two years. t Mrs. Cook is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. H. B Sanford, early settlers sett-lers at Sutherland After completing complet-ing her college course, she headed the Home Economics department at Delta high school for 6 years, from 1928 to 1934.
