It points out that summer is a good time for younger girls to begin sew­ ing for themselves, if they have facilities at home. While there is no sewing cen­ tre here, two or more girls could get together with a sewing mother once a week for pointers and go ahead on a simple gar­ ment of their own manufacture at home. They’ll find lots of fun and excellent experience when it comes to chosing styles and fab­ rics.t * * * New Status There's a new bill being con­ sidered which, if passed, will give West German women a new legal status in the home. Con­ troversy over the bill seems to be between two religious factors rathers than between husband and wife. A letter from the Fulda Bis­ hop’s Conference condemns the bill, while a protestant women’s league is all for the idea.* * * * New Economist Well known in Huron and Bruce W.I. circles, Miss Jean Scott, Home Economist, has left the local scene to devote her time in field training of County Home Economists. In her place will be Miss Jean Steckle, B.F.Sc., a member of the first group to graduate from Macdonald Institute with the University degree. Her job is primarily to assist with super­ vision of Homemaking Clubs and Junior Institute work.
