II I a ■ -w 111 Decatur Girl Writes Story Os State Fair Visit For Purdue

(Editor’s note —Miss Mary Smith is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. T. C. Smith, 61lf Nuttman avenue. A junior at Purdue University, Miss Smith does newspaper writing and radio work. She has broadcast programs from Purdue. The following story was printed in the Purdue Agriculturist Magazine, and relates her experiences at the Indiana State Fair last September.) BY MARY SMITH To some one wno nas never been to the Indiana State Fair, the first trip is a memorable one. I found it so, and I decided tc send my information along to you via the Agriculturist. I am told by people who have gone to the Fair for many years, that this year’s was the grandest of all, and although this was my first trip, I’m inclined to agree, for the 1947 Indiana State Fair was the finest I had seen since the Century of Progress Exposition in 1933 in Chicago. One could spend a week; and not see all there is to see of interest. 4-H The 4-H Building was my first stop, and I spent considerable time marveling at the displays which included every type of fruit and vegetable which could be canned, cakes and cookies of all descriptions, rolls and golden crusted of bread, not to mention the coats, suits, and dresses exhibited by these energetic 4-H girls. There Were dressmaker suits, sport suits, tailored coats, non-washable sports dresses, dresses made of wash material, party dresses, and even formals —all of which were skillfully made. I could not help but wish that I could sew as well as the girls who made those garments, for they had that “professional look” for which we all strive when sewing. Another interesting exhibit in the 4-H writing units, reading units, and dressing units. Seeing these, made me decide that the 4-H girls are interior decorators, as well as cooks and seamstresses. The dressing unit which caught my eye was made by Susan Matehett from Grant County. The dressing table had a very full white organdy skirt, with a powder blue scalloped edge. The dressing stool was covered similarly, the lamps on the table had shades which resembled the dressing skirt, and a •powder blue bow of velvet ribbon was tied around the top edge of tha/shade—all going to make up a ■tfiflt which any girl would like tb have for her own. From the 4-H Building, I next visited the Agriculture and Horticulture Building. Here, I found all the garden products exhibited by 4-H boys and girls and also those being displayed by anyone in open class. Judging by the garden products, I could see why the 4-H people are called the “future farmers of America.” Two very .interesting and educational exhibits, which I viewed in this building were the first and second premium winners in the Indiana Clubs Exhibit competition. One, with the theme—Gold from the Soil, depicted the uses of the soy bean for food and for industrial uses. The organization responsible for this informative display, was the Hamilton County Home Economics Club. The ladies had gathered together various soya products manufactured throughout the United States# and had them arranged attractively according to their use. Actual cookies and cakes, which had been baked with the addition of soya flour, were on display, too. The Hamilton County Home Economics Club ladies were out to prove that the soybean is really "Gold from the Soil” and their exhibit certainly was proof as to the truth in this phrase. The other display — “Light in Relation to Colors.” was shown by the Horae Economics Club of Marion County. This was the first premium winner. In individual boxes, the women had placed identical sheets of wall paper, a different color and effect. In addition, there were placards with headings— "Understand the Facts About Fluorescent Lighting” and “When Using Fluorescent Lights.” Both of these exhibits were drawing considerable attention. From these two displays. I walked over and saw the floral exhibit. Gladiolas seemed to predominate. and how lovely they were. I have never seen more beautifuly colored flowers or such gorgeous glads. I’d like to have gladiolas such as I saw at the Fair for my own garden, and I’m sure that you would want them, too, for they are a pretty flower for bouquets, and lend themselves well to striking arrangements. The American Livestock and Meat BdSrd had an exhibit which was of interest to me. Under refrigeration. every cut of meat was to be had from beef, veal, lamb, and ZIONISTS HAIL <<'oii.tinued from I’age I) sue.” The commission would send the security council progress repouts at least monthly. After listing these seven points, the United States and Russia add-

pork. I noticed many homemakers studying this display cerefully, for I think the homemaker can shop more wisely when she is aware of all of the different cuts, and those looking at the exhibit were taikug advantage of the information made available to them through tjila display. * By the time I had seen all there was to see in the Agriculture and Horticulture Building, I had o*ly five minutes to get to the Women’s Building for the L. S. Ayrea style show. These were presented twice daily during the Fair, and each show found more in attendance than at the previous showing. The narrator started by giving a brief history of L. S. Ayres, and by showing costumes dating from 1392 to the present time, brought the well known Indianapolis department store through the years. There was a contrast in the costumes of years gone by, to those of this year, but as great a contrast could be noted in the 1946 and 1947 fashions, because as we all know, clothes are being worn so much longer this year, and dresses of last year were sooo short. The 1947 model looked very striking in her suit of simple lines —and four inches below her knees. I noticed, too, that all hats covered the head. They weren’t necessarily large hats, but they did fit well down on the head. There were quite a few suits modeled, many jackets of which were peplum styled and double breasted. Skirts were straight with very little fullness to them. The coats were all full backed and many had hoods attached to them. The one color which seemed to be worn more often than any others was gray—all shades. The newest, charcoal, was worn with accessories of a lighter gray. Charcoal is a blued gray, in case you hadn't seen it yet. And speaking of accessories, there’s an earring on every ear this year, and small pocket books seem to be the mode. And here is an item of interest for the gray haired lady whs never thought she could wear brown. Every gray haired model came down the runway at least once, in' brown attire, and it was very flattering to them. I was surprised about this, because we have come to believe that brown is one of the poorest colors for those with gray hair. So, if you like brown, and have never felt that you could wear it, do try it the next time you shop for apparel. One point that the narrator tried to bring out in relation to the new long skirts was this—choose a hemline which is appropriate for your own height. Just as a person has a type of hat she can wear best, so does she have a hemline which suits her best. Everyone cannot wear their clothes the standard 4 inches from the knees, so said the Ayres representative. After the style show, I decided to see the remainder of the Women's Building, and the exhibits. Here, I found beautiful quilts, crocket work, hooked rugs, embroidery. rare button collections, and even stuffed animals—these things contributed by Indiana homemakers. There were all types of baked goods here. too. And most surprising of all were the model airplanes on display and made by women. My next stop was the Purdue Building. Purdue’s building was mainly devoted to agricultural exhibits and informational displays! dealing with problems confronting the fanner. One exhibit which was appealing to me, was the Safety in the Home display. Another along the same line was the exhibit with the theme—Safeguard Health in Your Kitchen. Dress Revue From the Purdue Building I went back to the 4-H Building for the State 4-H Dress Revue. It was like seeing a second style show, for the dresses which these 4-H girls had made, and modeled, were the latest in smartness and style. The girls selected for the “honor group” were chosen on the following basis: X 1. The girl herself. 2. Good grooming and accessories. 3. Suitability for the occasion and the girl. The winner and alternate, chosen from the honor group, were from Howard and Benton counties, respectively. The winner will] represent Indiana at the National 4-H Congress, aijd will model her costume in the National bress Revue. I’d like to mention Uiat the little girl who won highest nonors, had designed her outfit, as well. At the end of the day. I was ready to leave the State Fair until another year rolls around, and brings a bigger and better fair. Although I came away tired, I didn’t regret my trip. It’s a day I’ll always remember. - ed a footnote that the general assembly would be asked to request Great Britain to maintain law’ and order, and all essential services In Palestine until the British mandate ends. 4) — Trade tn a Good Tonn •— Decatur
