Homemakers Hear Of
Communist Threat
Buying an ELECTRIC CLOTHES DRYER NOW
is like getting 300 loads DRIED FREE!
li”::. ~M Lu-
|.
The Threat of Commu-
nism’"'was the topic discuss-
ed by Wynn Robinson for
the Young Homemakers Glut*
Monday evening. Robinson,
a CHS senior, recently at-
tended the Farm Bureau
Seminar on Communism in
Waco where he was one of
250 students.
Four main speakers who
are considered expert on the
subject gave talks to these
young people disclosing fac-
tors to watch for and giving
a general alert to commu-
nism. Robinson said there
are seven main reasons
listed as to why the com-
munists are gaining more
and more strength in this
country.
He said nearly every A-
merican would fit into one
of those categories. Some of
the seven were people who
are not Informed enough a-
bout what to look for, people
don’t care, some people care
but simply sit and wait for
it to take over, ect. He added
that the’ purpose for the
lecturers was to at least a-
waken Americans to the
point of becoming aware
of what is taking place and
what can take place unless
Americans learn to watch
for it and fight together for
the peace and freedom they
are accustomed to having.
Flan Stylo Show
Following the program
there was a short discussion
of the coming style show.

Photography Program
At a meeting March 13
Larry Yowell presented a
program on his photography
hobby for Young Homema-
kers of America members.
He presented several dif-
ferent types of camera,
demonstrating the mechani-
sms of the individual cam-
eras. He stated that to take
good pictures “you have to
know your camera and how
It works **
His motto is “Think be-
fore you shoot" and always
fill the frame.
The hostess, Mrs. Larry
Ogle, served strawberry
shortcake and punch to Mrs.
Junior Long, Mrs. Wayne
Bishop, Mrs. Lynn Lovell,
Mrs. Jackie Pinkston and a
guest, Mrs. Carolyn Collier.
Next year he will want his own read-
ing lamp. Next year he will need an
extra waffle at breakfast too, and
there will be school clothes to be’
ironed. All of this will require more
,electricity whifcn is why demand in
rural areas doubles every eight years.
In 1948, the average family served by
LIGHTHOUSE ELECTRIC COOPER-
ATIVE Used 160 kilowatt hours per
month. Today, this same family re-’
quires 450 kilowatt hours. This con-
stantly increasing demand calls for a
constantly upgraded electric service
requiring more money for improve-
ments. LIGHTHOUSE ELECTRIC
COOPERATIVE is planning ahead
now to provide this additional supply
that is Helping Texas Grow.
