Com« Set For Yourself PSON'S COMMUNITY BUILDING BEFORE PAINTING SAME BUILDING AFTER PAINTING Jr. 4-H'ers Get Their Building Painted During the year, the main attention of the junior 4-H'ers of the Cool Spring Community has been focused on getting their community building painted, G. W. Koonce, Agricultural Extension Agent, said yesterday. Their first step, he said, In accomplishing this was raising enough money to cover the expenses. To do this they worked on a series of fund raising drives. In their drives the junior 4-H'ers sold a stainless steel kitchen utensil that could be used as a turner, chopper and serving spoon. They also sold blue antique oil lamps. Both of these sales ended with much success. To stimulate more interest In their project, the junior 4-H'ers decided to have a health queen contest—the girl raising the most money for the painting of the building would be crowned queen. From these three projects the 4-H'ers were able to obtain more than enough Farmers Asked To Keep Records Account Farmers doing conservation cost-sharing work under the Agricultural Conservation Program (ACP) are asked to keep careful track of the date they are to report the completed work. T. E. Watson, County Executive Director for the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service, said it is important that the ASC Committee have a report on hand by the time the work is to be completed. "The funds allocated for the Job are not supposed to be tied up past that date unless they have been earned. "We always have more applications than we have cost-share funds for ACP practices, and it's not right for us to keep funds set aside for a practice Mrs. Clayton Named To National Committee Mrs. Eva Clayton was recently appointed to the National Committee on the Self Development ot People of the Presbyterian Church U. S. A. by the Moderator of the National Church. The 1970 General Assembly committed the entire church to the Self Development of People as a major part of Its ministry overseas and In the U. S. A. B further directed the Council of Church Support to design a plan for raising funds equal to or surpassing those raised in the Fifty Million campaign to be used In depressed areas and among deprived people. The National Committee oo the Self Development of People, which Mrs. Clayton now serves, has the responsibility ot validation of projects and the administration of the Fifty Million Dollar Fund. The Committee had its Initial meeting in New York, Sept. 29-Oct. 1. 1 Is composed of 30 persons, at least 75% at whom are United Pnsbyterians. Two ton\m countries are also represented. TIM committee was given a complete review of the church work In Development in the United States as well as overseas. when we don't know whether the farmer completed It or not," he said. If a farmer Is not able to complete his conservation work before the completion date, he may ask for a time extension by phoning, writing or visiting the County ASCS Office. Time extensions should be requested before the practice completion date, Watson said. "Sometimes a person misplaces the form which he is supposed to sign and send or bring to the County ASCS Office when his ACP work is done," Watson said, "in that case, he should phone or write to say the work has been completed and then drop by at his convenience to sign a duplicate form kept on file at the County Office. "If he has misplaced the form and doesn't remember his completion date, all he has to do is get in touch with the County ASCS Office —someone will look it up for him," Watson added. Occasionally circumstances prevent a farmer from completing his approved ACP conservation practice. "We're always sorry to hear it, but we appreciate tearing in time to re-allocate the funds," Watson said. "It's a good-neighbor deed to let the Cowty ASCS Office know as soon as possible, because it might mean giving another farmer a chance to put in a needed conservation practice this year."

For this, they retained the Rev. Mr. Burnette of Warrenton, an experienced p&inler. Now that the job is completed, the 4-H'ers as well as others of the community are very proud of their community building, Koonce said. From the above picture you can see that their pride is Justified.
