KOONCE Extension Agent, 4-H How to use the Project Planning Guide and Plan-Do-Review Project Record Form, How Do New Projects or Programs Get Started?, Creative 4-H Club Programming and Totally Terrific MeYoungsters and Selfesteem were but a small portion of the 14 workshops, show and tell fair, displays and evening extravaganza participated in by 40 Warren County 4-H volunteer leaders and supporters attending their state convention in Raleigh last Saturday. The statewide training convention sponsored by the Association of N. C. Volunteer 4-H Leaders was held at McKimmon Center on the N. C. State University campus. The workshops were very well planned and conducted. "AD news about the convention is good news," said George W. Koonce, Extension Agent, 4-H. "I have never witnessed such large amounts of good positive feedback from any of our training sessions before" the agent said. "It is a definite plus for us at the county level and we're going to get long mileage out of our attendance and participation." Eighteen of 23 organized 4-H units in the county either had full volunteer leader attendance or part attendance at the convention. "It was our largest number yet, but by no means our goal," said the agent. "We want every community club volunteer, project club volunteer and special interest volunteer to plan for this occasion each year. The county and area training for 4-H volunteers held here and that at district and state levels each year are paramount to the vital programming effort we see carried out in local clubs. There is a parallel between training, productivity and the fruit of achievement in our local clubs." Following the daylong convention a treat was in store for the county volunteers, as they ate dinner at North Hills Shopping Center and emerged to browse and shop during a 7 p. m. Moonlight ^tidnrirn Sale that turned everyone on to the holiday Bin.

Recognition was extended to the many former 4-H leaders present and visiting leaders and club members from other areas of the county. The Rev. Timothy Edwards, pastor of the church, praised the 4-H'ers for their work and their motto and exhorted them to continue on through life making "The Best Better" with God. The morning message from the pastor was taken from Matthew 22:42; his text was "A Question for Every Heart." There is a great question universal everyone should ask themselves. The question is "What do they give Christ in return for his love, his death on the cross?" The pastor's exhortation was to everyone to examine themselves and ask the question, "Have I done what the Lord would have me to do? Have I been faithful as the Lord would have me to be?" The Rev. Mr. Edwards ended his message with an altar call and the singing of Amazing Grace. BUFFALO ARE PLENTIFUL...At South Dakota'! Custer State Park, home of the largest buffalo tcrd in the nation.
