This Week With Macon County Agents By By Mi*. Barbara B. Hunnicutt 4-H neighborhood leaders are beginning to realize more than ever their importance In help ing to train rural youth to live by their motto, "to make the best better". Mrs. Woodrow Franklin, of the Holly Springs community, is an example of an active 4-H leader. She was elected to serve i as a neighborhood leader for the first time this year, and has already held one meeting with the 4-H girls in that neighborhood. This meeting was a follow-up of the dairy foods training school she attended that was held by Miss Virginia Wilson, extension nutritionist. At this train. ng school, the leaders were shown techniques in giving a demonstration and trained to he.p 4-H club girls who plan to give a dairy foods demonstration in June. For her demonst ation, Mrs. Franklin made "Velvety Soft Custards Used In Desserts" in which she brought out the food value of milk, food \ alu:s lacking in m.lk, the amount of milk needed in the daily diet, the care of milk and m..k products in the home, and the cooking of milk. For her final display, she used three di ferent arrangements of aitracuve desserts, using the soft custard as a base. For re freshments, Mrs. Franklin serv ed the girls the desserts she had just prepared in her dem onstration. Tins is just one example of the work neighborhood leaders are do.ng to help train and de velop 4-H club members in pub lic speaking, teamwork, and sportsmanship. They are taught that poise, personality, and per sonal grooming are necessary to attain success in any phase of life. This is one form of work being carried on by the women of this county in helping to de velop the future citizens in our communities. Metal beds are coming back into vogue.
