Leader Tells Of Experiences By Mrs. A. G. Qui nn I had the opportunity of ac companying a group of girls to Raleigh for die State 4-H Club Week. This was a delight ful experience for me. 1 attended the assembly mornings and evening, which 1 enjoyed very much. Gover nor Hodges gave a talk on "Accept Responsibility." 1 also attended programs and demonstrations on sew ing. tractor operations, bee keeping, and a dress revue, and they were very Interest ing. Sorry I couldn't attend more of the programs and demonstrations. There were several going on at the same time and I had to pick one. I am looking forward someday to the opportunity to go back. The luncheon for the adult leaders was given In the Col lege Union building. Mrs. Ernest Hostettler gave an In spirational talk on the needs and joy of serving as adult 4-H Club leader. The special leadership class was held for the adult leaders. The purpose was to share experience and think together. All of the above mentioned activities were thoroughly en joyed by me, and I gained many benefits from them which help me personally in everyday living. However, the most Important thing of all to me is the pleasure I had in realizing the Interest, integrity, and ambitions of our youth In better qualifying themselves for a most pros perous living and to better serve their country and fellow man. Truly, they demon strated their ability and eagerness to "Learn-Llve Serve Through 4-H." Fun In 4-H Byjerry Hen son We don't Just work In the 4-H Club. We have fun, too.

A Tribute To 4-HerS Mrs. Howard Martin, President Cherokee County Home Demonstration Council One of the nicest things accorded me as county coun cil president, has been watch ing and working with our 4-H'ers of Cherokee County. It Is a pleasure to see these young people demonstrate the many things they are learn ing under the sponsorship of the extension program of work. Being interested In all of our young people and their activities, and also In my county's progress, I've jot ted down a few of the things which I feel our 4-H'ers have gained from their participat ion in their program of work. First, of course, would be discipline, an all inclusive word, but let's break It down and say they learn through their projects how to budget their time, their money and their talents - and most of them have many talents. What better place to start than In the home with parents to help them? The second thing I would like to point out Is this - they are learning to stand alone. Usually their first trip to camp is their first vacation away from home and family. This is good for the child and the parents. The third and most Important thing of all is this - they are prepar ing themselves for better leadership in their church, school and community acti vities. Our communities are getting larger all the time, and much help is needed in all phases of community life. To sum up the program, I am going to borrow a quote from a famous baseball play er. It goes somethinglike this: "It is giving the youth of our community a proper set of values and then teaching them how to live up to them." 4-H Club Work Has Helped My Children By Mrs. J . V. Henson Through the many projects my children have carried out In the 4-Hclubwork, they have learned much about the right and best methods of caring and feeding of livestock and how to Judge good livestock. The live stock project gives them a feeling of ownership - of hav ing and caring for something of their own. It has helped to develop thrift, by learning how to spend their money wisely, that they have made from their pro jects. In forestry projects, they have learned the different kinds of trees and how to Identify them, the use of the wood or tree. This could prove very helpful later In their school work, or perhaps in the occupation they might choose for their life's work, along with the deeper ap preciation of minerals from the soli. Four-H club program has given my children many camp experiences that has proven very helpful id them. At camp they learn to work and play together, fhey have gotten experience through their record keeping that will be a help In book keeping. After several years of record keeping, maybe they will continue this good habit. By Mrs. T.t. Anderson Four-H means much to me, since, I have two daughters so enthusiastic about4-HClub work. Deborah, the oldest daugh ter, likes to keep busy, so she has found many activities in 4-H that has helped her fin ancially as well as gaining experience. With the assist ance of 4-H leaders, she has learned to sew well and there fore she has more clothes at low cost. Her livestock pro jects has provided her with money which has helped with her clothing and given her a start toward college expense. The activities which 4-H pro vides has helped her grow toward an adult with a sense of responsibility. She likes home economics very much and has learned through 4-H the many careers i offers and I think this has helped her make a decision In this field. The younger child, an ad mirer of her older sister, has been anxious to take her pi ace in 4-H along side her sister. Poultry was her first pro ject. She won prizes and re cognition on her pountry pro jects. There are many pro jects in which 4-H boys and girls can taki that helps to give them some income for future education, as well ?s experience, which helps build character and prepare them for adulthood. Four-H'ers need the support of their parents, adult leaders and sponsors. I think it will mean much to the parents and child ren as it has meant much to us. 4-H Club members here and sverywhere are now observing National 4-H Club Week, March 4-11.
