" throcgh the. early 1900'g. when the country -x iy, yath vr& ry, the time was right for 'great ifcsurge of rural power. Simultaneously, in vsMoub : Darts l the eouAtry. corn clubs and canning clubs appeared, as county superintendents of schools sought to make education a more vital factor in the. everyday Hving of the "boys and girls. Then the col leges found a way to let their new dis coveries be known through youth eager; Inspired, energetic youth, who planted the experimental com, who used the new ideas, who came to gether in , groups for discussions id better methods and for comparing re sults. . lit' 1911 the four-leaf clover with H's signifying-head, heart, hands, and health' appeared, and by 1918 the term "4-H Clubs" was being generally used. ' With the passage of the Smith- Lever Act in 1914, the Cooperative Extension Service was established, and a national program was on he way. In 1919 a group of public-spirited citi zens foresaw a role for industry in building a stronger 4-H, in strengthen ing our youth, in-participating in the development of rural areas to which industry owed so much. From these beginnings came the National Com mittee on Boys and Girls Club Work, National Awards programs, National 4-H Club Congress, and other ser vices to 4-H Club Work. In 1927, National 4-H Camp came into being to honor 4-H boys and girls with outstanding abilities in leadership and citizenships At' this first National 4-H Camp, the 4-H pledge and motto were officially adopted. All this and much more are in "The 4-H Story" with countless epi sodes of early vision, youth's respon siveness, the strength and devotion, of local volunteer 4-H leaders, the cap able direction of federal state, and county extension workers. The hope of our country lies in our youth, and todav 2.000,000 boys and girls, ac tive members of 4-H Clubs, are living by the 4-H s of head, heart, hands, and health to build riches "Into their lfvesr into their farms and homes, and into this wonderful country of ours.

Soi:::l Cus IVrccIis An upward trend in school bus ac- cidenv. .has officials of ithe State Highway Safety (Division worried. Since the first of the year, they said, three children have been killed in accidents involving school buses. In a majority of cases the young sters themselves were morally at fault the safety experts "pointed out. Most of the fatalities ocounng recently have been traced to children stepping from in front of tie bus into the roadway. State law,' of course, requires that traffic from both directions stop when approaching a standing school bus. ' However, the law is violated occasionally and when it is the child becomes a target. The Safety Division is appealing to parents of school age young people fog help. They especially want to emphasize that the school , bus does not provide 100 per cent protection as many children and parents think. Safety equipment is adequate, the di vision feels. Every bus is painted brilliant orange, it carries stop lights at the front and rear 'And is equip ped with a stop sign showing both ways when the vehicle is halted. ' "Parents must continually impress on their youngsters the dangers of the onen road," the safety men said. "Teach them to look carefully before crossing the highway." : : ONE MINUTE SPORTS QUIZ , 1.
