rectors of the Texas Home Dem
onstration Association this morn
ing, (August 4). I found the mem
bers of this Board to be very sin
cere and keenly interested in home
demonstraiton work in Texas. In
addition to this, they had all
worked long and effectively.
“We did not agree about Miss
Hearn, the Board being of the opin
ion that Miss Hearn could not suc
cessfully carry out the duties to
which she had been assigned, and
it was my sincere belief that she
was wholly competent *to do so
and would be entirely successful.
I think the women of the Associa
tion will be fair about it.

the State to have been very profit-
able. ,,
Gilchrist reaffirmed his earlier
statement Monday in saying, “I
consider Miss Hearn very capable
and I am sure that things will
work out all right in the end.”
Mrs. Leon Sullivan of Red Oak,
president of the Women’s Asso
ciation reported that the meeting
was profitable to both parties but
continued: “We did not agree about
Miss Hearn, however, President
Gilchrist being of the opinion that
it was the duty of the women to
accept appointment of Miss
•Hearn.”
May 13th the Board of Directors
of Texas A. & M. appointed Miss
Hearn to succeed Mildred Horton
as state home demonstration agent.
Miss Hearn was graduated from
Mary Hardin Baylor located in
Belton with a B.S. degree in Home
Economics and entered the Exten
sion Service in March of 1930 as
home demonstration agent of Bell
County. In 1934 she came to the
headquarters staff at A. & M. as
a specialist in home industries.
She was promoted to the posi
tion of District Agent of District
7, comprising 21 Central West
Texas counties, in the fall of 1935
a position which she held until her
appointment as Vice Director of
the Extension Service and State
Home Demonstration Agent.

The Texas Home Demonstration
Association is made up of women
from all over the state of Texas
but its membership does not include
any professional home demonstra
tion agents. This group also earlier
recommended that the board for
A. & M. be made up of members
from each of the Texas Senatorial
Districts and further that the board
include women.

and individual training in these
fields at all levels, was explained.
This proposal is part of an agenda
of objectives of the Texas A. & M.
College which he is setting down
on paper for the first time and
which will be presented for con
sideration to the board of directors.
These proposals will embrace the
correlation of the agricultural
agencies of the A. & M. system in
the interest of efficiency and elim
ination of duplication of expendi
ture and effort.
The Brazos County A. & M. Club
served watermelons to around 150
of its members which had been
secured through the efforts of P. L.
Downs, Jr., club good Samaritan,
and Luke Patranella and George
McCullough, College Station bus
iness men. Surplus melons were
auctioned off under what was
claimed to be the Chinese system
and sold from five cents to over
$6.00 each.
At the business meeting of the
club following the watermelon sup
per, E. G. Smith was elected as
sistant secretary to. serve during
any absences of Secretary Fred
Hale. There was some discussion
of adopting a standard design for
pins to be presented to presidents
of A. & M. clubs over the State,
and President Roberts appointed
Fred Hale, W. R. Carmichael, club
vice president, and Chas. W. Craw-
for£, who acted as secretary at the
Monday night meeting, to serve as
a committee to investigate the pos
sibilities of the proposal.
