Family Advice for Coping with Change and Change Management

Fannie Gannon of Town State College offers a family plan to meet national emergency change. She lists six steps: remember past crises, accept change as constant, actively manage tasks, limit plans due to taxes or shortages yet keep end goals, build ground money by cutting debt, and guard against future indebtedness for consumer goods. A planned family program yields security amid abrupt national emergency and cycles of family life.

Be Careful In All House Cleaning Tasks Avoid Falls

Miss Amy Kelly, state extension agent, warns falls dominate home accidents. She urges homemakers to use sturdy step-stools for indoor tasks like window washing and cupboard cleaning, and to avoid chairs or makeshift ladders. For outside chores, use proper ladders and follow safe climbing tips.

Amy Kelly National Safety Council

Dress for Safety While Working on Ladders

Wear clothes that allow freedom of movement and won’t snag while climbing. Jeans or slacks are safer than skirts. Inspect ladders for cracks, loose or rotted rungs, and loose nuts. Set the ladder firmly on a solid surface and extend bags four feet from the wall to prevent tipping. Use a ladder long enough to extend above the work level.

Fragmented OCR prompts a safety focused summary

A garbled OCR fragment mentions security measures and handling of heavy or bulky tools. It suggests a caution about ladders and cable fees. The text is incomplete and lacks clear event or identifiable involved entities.
