One hundred twelve men and wo- men leaders from 24 counties of the state worked and played together at the state college while attending the short course that was replete with valuable and timely information concerning con-cerning important problems regarding regard-ing Utah's farm family welfare. While the women were engaged in discussing home furnishings, consumers' con-sumers' problems, foods and nutri-tion nutri-tion and clothing, the men were engaged en-gaged in studying and learning of plant and! animal diseases, and identifying seeds of grains, grasses, weeds, and truck crop seeds, to be able to identify pure and adulterated adulter-ated seed samples and to make the most out of the farm family income through improved home management manage-ment practices. Special lectures and demonstrators appeared before the general as-sOmblies as-sOmblies which were held each morning morn-ing at 8:10, and further emphasized the need for leadership in many lines among the rural communities of this' state and helped the delegates dele-gates to assume their positions as leaders. Evenings were devoted to study, recreation, entertainment such as dramas, musicals, and lectures, or left open for the short-course stu- dents to choose their own pastimes. "We expect you as leaders to return to your homes and pass on to the people of your county the information informa-tion and inspiration you have received re-ceived during this school," Director Direct-or Peterson counseled in one of his talks before the group. "Each one of you is a marked person now and we expect you to take your proper place in looking after the agricultural agricul-tural and home economics interests of your particular section of the state." o . |
