But at least 45 com munities this year had extra help from teenagers of the Future Farmers of America. Through the FFA’s national Building Our American Communities (BOAC) program, state FFA members have carried out projects ranging from park restoration to picnic area construction. Nationally, BOAC projects are being carried out in more than 1,500 communities this year. Sponsored by R. J. Reynolds Industries, Inc., BOAC is designed to help improve small and rural communities while building youth leadership. In Troutman, N.

On the contrary, it is the key to the free enterprise system - the most successful system ever devised to build a strong and prosperous way of life. Profit is what is left over after the bills are paid. For a company to earn a profit, it must take in more revenues than it spends in costs. These costs include raw materials, salaries, sales expense, interest, rents, utilities, taxes, and other expenses. Subtract Hardy Completes Training Airman Jacqueline A. Hardy, daughter of Frank J.
