Congress in Chicago Will Live
Long in Hearts of N. C. 4-H’ers
By Tom Wood
N. C. Stats College
Thirty-six- Tor Heel 4-OTers came
back from Chicago recently with
sweet, strong memories that will
live long in their hearts.
There are memories of thous
ands of smiles . . . from the 1,500
4-H’ers at the national congress
. . . from hard-bitten Chicago na
tives . . . from top industrialists
who help support 4-H-. . . from
the harried minions of the great
hotels.
They remember the magnificent
horse show at the International
livestock Exposition, die* steeple
chase with its hdfalutin riders . . .
the proud champion cows and
sheep and hogs.
They recall the warmness of
their hosts, at magnificent lunch
eons and bamquetS in the famed
Palmer House, the Conrad Hilton,
the Sheraton-Blacfestone . . . peo
ple like Mrs. Charles R. Walgreen,
energetic Sl-year-old widow of the
drug chain founder. She was there
for almost every main event, prov
ing her personal as well as finan
cial interest in 4-H.
' They think of Police Sergeant
Pefferfeom, a slim man with a
friendly face who saw that the
delegates got around the metro
polis with ease, and still kept the
interminable flow of traffic mov
ing. The sergeant seemed to be at
every intersection, and always
smiling.
They remember the spirit of
Christmas that was permeating the
city already, the bare-lknbed trees
diamonded with white lights, the
marvelous scenes in the store
windows, the jangle of Salvation
Army bells amid the road of the
“el’ in the “Loop”.
Chicago is a city of all peoples,
where the youngsters from the
farm mingle with the wealthy
Strolling from a $250-a-plate bene- j
fit . . j where a dollar doesn’t buy
much, hut a 4-if gr gets a thousand
dollars worth of entertainment
free . . . where a top executive
of a huge industry chats at a ban
quet with a delegate from Afetea.
The 4-H’ens recall vividly their
meetings, and how they presided
before audiences, of two thousand
.. where the spirit of 4-H achieve
the sparkling girl singers, one of
them so vibrant and talented that
a middle-aged 4-H leader pre
dicted she’d be another Sophie
Tucker.
One of the lessons of 4-H Out
inf
curity
the memo!* that this whole
week is a tremendous tribute to
4-H deeds will bolster the dele
gates,' their parents, their lead
ers and the'' 4-H’ers who follow
them in living tip to the 4-H mot
to: “To Make the Best Better.”
For this is why the congress has
been held for 39 years, and each
one seems better than the last.
It’s , a contest of achievement be
tween 4-H and Chicago.
■ To a great many of the dele
gates, the finest memory of all is
of the final banquet. There the
whole .Congress, two thousand
strong, forms a mighty chorus to
sing the “Star Spangled Banner.”
And all of 4-H effort is distilled
into a single goal: To live uj> to
the spirit of the National /Anthem.
