Mrs. Barbara Gentry’s authentic colonial costume carried out the theme, “Our Heritage—Our Future”, of the National Extension Homemakers' Council meeting which she attended August 11-14 in Blacksburg. Delegates from Virginia along with those from the other 49 states and Puerto Rico were present for the council meeting and total attendance was nearly 5,000. All Virginia delegates were requested to wear a colonial costume. They gave tote bags to all other representatives present. These bags were made by Virginia Homemaker Clubs early this year. Mrs. Gentry, who is from Flint Hill, was accompanied by Miss Judy Burtner, Home Agent.
