There' are many ! different
types,' , of-, demonstrations (hat
4-H. boys and girls, cqn give. , It
helps, to give one in which you
are interested 'and one of inter
est to Dthers. Some of these are

ing and giving . a food demon
stration. The limit for a dem
onstration is 15 minutes! ' The
first step , is to select a recipe
that the demonstration likes and
enjoys preparing. 'f It should be
a new dish, unusual, practical
arid hot too difficult to prepare.
The nutritional content of the
food should show how it' fits
into the basic food groups.
... Posters should be made show
ing the. various steps in ; the
demonstration. The introduction
includes name, club, ; county,
title and purpose of demonstra
tion. The body, includes ingre
dients .used, and the steps in
the preparation of the recipe.
Next the demonstration shows
the different ways of serving
the dish and a display of menus
that could be planned . around
the dish. Suggestions for gar
nishing and serving attractively
may be given. . Summarizing
the information given in the
demonstration is :. very: import
ant. This should point out the
versatility of the dish and oth
er important tips stressed
throughout the demonstration.
Demonstrations will , surely
put to work the pledge of the
4-H Club. . Using head, hands
and heart resulting in better
health for better living.
A demonstration has to win
county before given at district
elimination day. To become a
county and district winner is an
honor, being' a delegate ,to State
4-H Club Week at State College
in Raleigh is a highlight in tEe
4-H experience. It - is ' a means
for helping to make 4:H more
meaningful for everyone.
Besides making friends of club
members- from other ' counties,
you learn good sportsmanship.
The morje a 4-H Club member
does toward actual preparation
of his demonstration, the more
benefit he derives from it, for
we learn by doing.
By Sandra Jenningi
; A , community 4-H Club is
helpful to the community, coun
ty, family and home. It gives
young people a chance to-be
leaders; it makes better citi
zens and it develops a better
personality. The members have
a chance to take an active part
in all 4-H work and activities.
A community 4-H Club helps
the community by carrying out
projects such as cleaning up
trash dumps, places where flies
and mosquitoes breed and places
where disease starts.
In December a community
4-H Club was organized for the
Woodville and Chapanoke com
mcnities. The group decided to
call it the Wood-Chap Club. Of
ficers were elected as follows:
President, Sandra Jennings; sec
retary, Irene Elliott; treasurer,
Cherry Jo Creamer; program
chaiman, Joarv Green; reporter,
Kay s Wood; recreation, Inez
Boyce; song leader, Pauline
Colson.
The adult leaders are Mr. and
Mrs. E. L. Jennings and Mr. and
Mrs1. L. B. Elliott.
When the club was organized
it imet in the homes. The club
was so large the leaders talked
j Of dividing the group. In Jan-
I uary Mrs. Wallace , Wood -.of
i Woodville donated an old two
room apartment to be used as a
club house. The club is grate
ful to her. At present the club
j is 'trying to secure furnishings
for the building. They are busy
making plans for painting and
fixing up the rooms, -y
By Ann Benton
p One of the projects that the
4-H Club offers is the electric
project; In Perquimans County
4-H'ers and parents are becom
ing interested in the electric
project more ' than ever before.
There are several programs that
have been started to create "more
interest in the electric program.
Electric workshops have been
started, especially f or the be
ginners in the electric project.
Electric demonstrations given to
the 4-H explaining the terms
bt electricity and its purposes
help to create interest. Dem
onstrations that are prepared
and given by 4-H'ers help to
teach others . about electricity.
Demonstrations given to the
Home Demonstration Clubs of
the county has aroused interest
in electricity among the parents.
Are the homes efficiently wired
for the use of the many electric
appliances now on the market?
This is an ' important question
created by the demonstrations
.given by the agricultural and
home agents.
The electric project is an in
teresting and educational pro
ject. It is hoped that more
people will take an interest in
the electric program that is be
ing offered in Perquimans
County.
