Oine 4-H Club Hears Report On Bottle Drive B> .lOWW HARRISON The Oine 4-H Ciub met September 26 at 7 ;io p. m. at the Oine Community Center with Arvella Downey presiding The devotion consisted of song, prayer, and pledge. Old business included a report of the number of bottles that had been collected for sale. New business: Plans were made from 4-11 Church Sunday on October 23 A costume party was planned for Halloween. Members were given an opportunity to report on their summer tnps and tours Project b Miks were discussed. Percell Downey gave a very interesting report on the Forestry W orkshop and tree identification hike he attended in the Wise-Paschall Community The Educational topic was about great persons who failed and succeeded in life It w as given by Peggy Downey I he meeting adjourned with the 4-H Motto. Refreshments were served. You might take a good look at all practices and determine why your crop was not so hot. Land is always an important factor. If you have good tobacco land, you should give land top priority as this is the money crop in Warren County or certainly the dependable one year in and out The Warren County Fair is over I would certainly like to thank the Fair Association, the exhibitors aiki oiners v.ho went to the trouble to make the fair a success. Now is the time to sow small grains, and is not too late to sow permanent pasture, this needs to be sown right away for best results. Mr. Johnson and Mr. Scott of the Phillip Morris Company, Richmond, Va.; asked if I would try to get a group of the top tobacco farmers to tour their plant in Richmond this fall. Wonder if any of you are interested? If so please call or let me know. Husbands and wives will be invited if there is enough interest. This is something to see. The Forestry Club visited this plant in the summer. Working At 4-H Camp Is Said Good Experience By OITA K. CHESTON Working at 4-H Camp was a rewarding experience, especially working at the most modern camp in North Carolina Betsy-Jeff Penn 4-H Camp in Reidsville. My working day began at 7:30 in the morning and wasn't over until every camper was in bed. The days were tiring, but I wouldn't have traded them for anything else in the world. My summer was extremely brightened when Warren County came for the week of July 11-16. Mr. Koonce and Mr. Woolard did an excellent job in keeping up the spirit of the group and getting total co-operation but I doubt if they told anyone about the outcome of the staff versus agents and leaders in a volleyball game. Our staff defeated them three times and didn't allow them to get any points. I learned a lot about myself this summer, and I would like to thank the Warren County Extension Service for supporting me and giving me the opportunity to work at camp. It shall be a summer that I will remember all my life. I would like to encourage every boy and girl who is not a part of the 4-H experience to join up. 4-H offers young people many opportunities for growth and development in its program of training in the art of better living. But it is also necessary that we, as 4-H'ers, learn to make the most of what we have, to pass on to future generations some of the knowledge gained and to make the land where we stand more valuable for those who follow us. I would also like to encourage all 4-H members to attend 4-H Camp at least once. The camp program provides many opportunities, new experiences, recreational advantages, and the privilege of making new friends and coming in contact with people. Adult Improvement Club Participates In Service ByS. \1. CHESTON Adult 4-11 Leader The Norlina Youth Improvement 4-H Club started National 4-H Week with its 4-H Sunday Program. The program was held at the Norlina Baptist Church with about 55 people participating and was very spiritual and enjoyable. Walter Price, agricultural teacher at Hawkins Junior High School, was the keynote speaker. Price was chosen teacher of year by the Warren County Public Schools and has received many other outstanding awards. Price emphasized ways to "Make The Best Better." He also suggested ways to use the 4-H pledge for God and all mankind. Everyone listened as he spoke. During the whole program we knew God was in our midst. We were also delighted to have the Wise-Paschall 4-H Club with its leader, Mrs. Eva Holtzman. They sang the old time favorites "The Old Rugged Cross" and "Amazing Grace." One could almost see the world being made as Miss Lisa Reavis gave her recitation on "The Creation." Miss Reavis is in the Embro 4-H Club. The Community Echoes from Oine 4-H Club did a very beautiful job with "I've Been Running For A Mighty Long Time and I'm Not Tired Yet" and other soul stirring songs. Each member of our club took a part in the program and did an outstanding job. We thank all the 4-H'ers, leaders, parents, and friends for coming and participating in this 4-H Sunday Program. Temperatures have reached 134 degrees in Death Valley. L. C.
