Club Winners to Chicago. !
Forty-six winners of Nebraska
boys and girls club work this year
will be going to the sixth annual
club congress at Chicago this week
end. All of thein will have a part
of their expenses paid by various
business concerns and organizations
interested in what the young people
are doing. At Chicago the Nebraska
party will join over 1,00 Oothers who
have won similar honor in other
states of the union. A few contests
will be held, but for the most part
the coming week will be spent in
seeing the International Livestock
show and the city of Chicago. Offi
cials there have arranged a program
filled with more attractions than the
average visitor there would get to
see in many weeks. From the visit
and the contact with the best club
boys and girls in other states, the
Nebraska folks should get a greater
inspiration to go on with the club
work in the state. Most of the party
are nearing the age when they will
be thru with active membership 1e
clubs and ready to be local leaders
and the trip will mean much to
them. L. R. Snipes, Co. Extenrfoc
