News About Clubs I In Chowan County By MRS. IMOGEN!! COCHRANE Horae Demonstration Agent Take Time'To Be A Good Citisen Home Demonstration Club members realize that learning to be better citi zens in their homes, communities, counties, state and nation is just as important as any phase of homemak ing. For this reason a Citizenship Program is incorporated in Home Demonstration Work as an essential .part of the program. Although citi zenship is something we all must practice day by day in all phases of our work,, a definite program is set up each year, in order to keep us aware of our responsibilities and rights as individuals and help us be come better citizens. September 17 was Constitution Day so we might | think of September as Month. Some of the clubs have had their members answer roll call. this month by telling what constitutes a good citizen in their opinion. In ob servance of Constitution Day, a skit entitled “Our American kheritance” was presented by the Enterprise Club at a County Council meeting. Members wore asked to write es says or skits this month pertaining to Citizenshin. Below is an essav written by M~s. H. T. Hollowell, of the Center Hill Club: “Be A Better Citizen” “September is Citizenship Month.. The demand for loyal, courageous citizens is greater now than we have ever known. Let us, you and I, agree that none of us are so good a cit’Von that we can’t be better. We must be well informed about our countv gov emmeat and know what is expected of a good citizen, our duties, our respon sibilities and our privileges. We must enjoy our political rights. Let us do this. Knowing the qualities of a good citizen is a duty. “The home is the basic foundation for good citizenship. The first les son should be taught at the Mother’s Knee. Each individual in the home should uphold good standards of con duct, have respect for rights and property of others, loyalty to each other, tolerance of others, cooperation, and self-reliance. “The public school is to help all chil dren and young people to grow as healthy, happy and useful citizens. It is here that the child is trained for living and intelligent thinking and for the kind of good citizenship that is based on strength and character. “The church is important because of its task in the spiritual development of a citizen. Every citizen has a re sponsibility towards making the church the center of spiritual life. “We must have love for the com munity in which we live. Every in dividual and every family should help their community be a better communi ty. “A good citizen tries to gain and keep perfect health, does his duty, tries to do the right thing in the right way, is kind, cooperates with his fel low workers, is loyal, has self-control, plays fair, is reliable, and is self-re liant. “Our citizens need more praise and appreciation and less corrections. More praise and appreciation and less criticism. A good citizen is happy. Let’s try to remember three words, acceptance, affection and apprecia tion. Let’s aceept each person on his own merits. Let’s pour on affection like sunlight and fresh air. Let’s praise and appreciate others. Let’s not feel sorry for ourselves and think our task is bigger than our neigh bors’. We must be better citizens and have faith that the citizens of the United States will work, save, vote, and pray to keep the four freedoms: The freedom of speech, the freedom of worship, the freedom from want — - **^***^^^^^^^^**^^* * 'fflfnK' A JMa Sr& o , ’^HH^Hsijp ff I Fun H Pm^^rn ***■?
