Next week and the few to fol
low will mean many things to
many people. For some it means
tiieir first year in high school. It
moans growing up some more.
Some will find that next week
marks the end of a wonderful sum
mer vacation, making far-away
places and exciting adventures
otily a memory.
Some will simply resume studies
at a familiar site. Some will miss
riding around and meeting friends
at the Parkway. Some may be de-
iwessed because the Saturday
mght crowd at the beach has gone
home.
.Many will only see the teen club
oei weekends, being confined most
ly to home during the week. Most
Will be reunited with friends. A
few will be important, and ali will
be busy.
For several this decisive period
means leaving family, friends, and
the familiar to assume a whole
new way of life. For these, this
is a critical period and the out
come will determine any future
success. I
There are some who will only
resume the same routine followed
all summer. Some will notice no
change. They will continue the
course in life that they have al
ready resolved to settle down and
follow.
We are all tailors, working with
the pattern of life.
As soon as people arc old enough
to know better, they don’t know
anything at all.

Route 7, Dunn, Family Has
Added Many Honors to 4-H
%
fe-
By TOM WOOD
N. C. State College
The tapping of Gene Jackson
into the State 4-H Honor club last
week is another milestone in a
47-year love affair of the Jasper
D, Jackson family with 4-H.
Gene, 18, is the sixth member
of the Dunn, route 1, family to be
tapped into the Honor dub.
There’s his mother, who was a
member of one of the early to
mato clubs in 1915-20; his eldest
brother, James Wright Jackson,
31, a topnotch hog producer; his
second brother, Bobby, 29, mana
ger of the hog market at Scotland
Neck (Bobby’s wife, Dale, was in
the Honor club, too); his sister,
Marjorie Jackson Wiggins, 27,
now living at Kinston and the
wife of Soil Conservationist Tal-
madge Wiggins; and his brother,
Jackie, 25, a sophomore at State
college after a stint in the Air
Force.
The only one left is nine-year-
old Blake, who’s just about ready
to get into 4-H.
Membership in the Honor club
is the finest award that can come
to a 4-H’er. It’s recognition of
superior achievements.
Outstanding accomplishment is
a habit with the Jackson family.
They’ve been topping records ever
since Tom Cornwell, Sampson
county assistant county agent, got
them interested in 4-H ’way back
when. Marjorie thanks former
Home Agent Eleanor Southerland
and her assistant, Maxine Pleasant,
for spurring her along to become
the national winner in frozen foods
in 1952.
Marjorie was “defeated miser
ably” for president of the State
4-H Council in 1953. But six years
later the nucleus of the group that
helped defeat her asked her to
be president of the Honor club.
She held that office in 1959-60.
James was vice president of the
State council in 1949. James at
tributes his record as a producer
of hogs and tobacco (with father-
in-law D. C. Baggett, a couple of
miles from the Jackson home
farm) to his 4-H training. That rec
ord led the Dunn Jaycees to name
James “Young Farmer of the
Year” in 1960.
Jackie won many 4-H district
awards and took a host of honors
in dairy shows. He once had the
grand champion uuernsey at the
State Fair.
Three years ago, Gene was state
winner in corn production. “Gene
is the quietest but the deepest of
the family,” says Marjorie. “He
has been outstanding in county
and district events, and he has
helped other 4-H’ers a great deal.”
Something Gene said to Blake
sums up the Jackson family’s
whole philosophy of 4-H.
