the only officer of his battalion who
advanced bejiond the town and by
clearing machine gun and sniping
posts, contributed largely to the aid
of his battalion In holding their ob

In boys' and girls' club work preju

on lack of knowledge or misrepresenta

agents and demonstrators meet every
day. To surmount them is not the
easiest task; to convert opposition
Into hearty support Is nn achievement
cniling for unusual patience and tact.
That both of these virtues nre pos
sessed in large measure by a majority
of the extension workers may be ad
duced from the reports constantly com
ing to that bureau.
A farmer In Maryland hod no use
for "book farming." He upbraided his
son, a member of a boys' club, for fol
lowing the agent's Instructions In seed
corn selection. He called the test for
100 per cent germination "foolishness,"
and walked off in utter disgust. The
boy, encouraged by his Instructor, kept
at It, demonstrated the proposition,
grew the selected seed, and got a typi
cal high-grade crop, a decided contrast
to dad's. That settled it. The "fool
ishness" turned out to be "n good
Idea." The farmer has become an
enthusiast.
At the very outset a woman demon

village girl, anxious to become a mem

Today that little girl is the leading

that she will have a bigger one this
