that Mi** Jexete Rich of the exten-
sion department e* the University
ef Tex** wilt shortly be ta Grayson
county, and at Tom Bean on March
t and 2, and In doing *o writes the
following interesting letter, which
should cause much Interest by Mi»s
Rich’* appearance In the county:
Sherman. Tex., Jan, 23, 1915.
Miss' Adeline Cook, ,
Tom Bean. Texas,
Dear Miss Cook: -
1 have a letter from Miss Mary
B. Gearing, dated January 2£th, ad-
vising that Miss Jessie F. nieh, lec-
turer domestic economy, can be with
ns in Grayson county on March l*t
and 2nd, and if necessary can stay
over a third day. *“>
The question naturally comes
up: Wha* plans shall we make for
utilizing the service* of Miss Rich
while she Is here. We, of course,
do not want to plan too much for
her, hut i would suggest that
Monday afternoon March 1st, we
have Miss Rich to meet the mother.!
and daddies 4 if we cam-get them
out) at the school immediately af-
ter the close of the school in the af-
ternoon.
That night. Monday, arrange for
a public lecture by Miss Rich to
which special invitations will be
sent to all the school teachers and
school trustees in the vicinity of
Tom Bean
On Tuesday’ Miss Rich can spend
dome time especially observing
demonstration of your work, and of
course. wiH offer such helpful sug-
gestions as may occur to her.
It may be that as the result of
Miss Rich's talk seme of the outly-
ing country *—.nets will want to
take up the work, which you have
Marled. If such should be the ca*?
it would rrobably be well for Site
Rich to visit that community and
talk to the teachers and patrons Of
rhe school Tuesday afternoon and
Tuesday night.
1 expect that Miss Rich’s plans
will be to come to Sherman cn the
precedVg Saturlay or Sunday and
Monday morning we will come
down in the car if the weather per-
mits. If, the roads are not passable
we will come on the Cotton Belt
motor car.
Mind you. I am just making sug-
gestions. I have no reason to be-
lieve that the suggestions that I am
making will suit cither you or .Miss
Rich. I am geing to send her a
copy of this letter and ! guess she
will write back to suggest what will
be the best plan. For the sake of
publicity, however, it might be well
to announce the mothers’ meeting
and this Monday night lecture and
the fret that Miss Rich will prob-
ably spend Tuesday supervising the
lunch service in the Tom Bean
school.
Superintendent Giles is very
much gratified to know that Miss
Rich is coining up and will be on
hand and in the party white shells
here, and will give all aid that is
possible in helning -ray-son county
schools to get the most cut of Miss
Rich's visit,
