4-H Chub Week
(Continued from i-age 1)
heritage, contour farming, opportun
ities of the pioneers of today, trees
and conservation were held. A na
tional 4-H club song hook was given
to each one and sor.gs were most
capably led by Mrs. Tullis through
out the music periods of this week.
Dr. C. A. Fulmer gave a very in
teresting address on "Possibilities of
Rural Vocations." He told of the
many farm-connected occupations for
young men and women which bring
the joys and satisfaction of doing a
good job, and serving well.
Each day from 9:35 to 10:40
Ralph Copenhaver directed the re
creation for club members. Games
were played on the college campus.
For convocation Mrs. Nettie Sims
talked on the subject "Youth of
the World." Mrs. Sims is famous for
her world travels. She described 'the
youth situations of Italy, Germany,
France and England. The motto for
Italy is "All for One" and training
for war is begun at the age of 4.
German children are taught to hate
everyone that is not German. Hitler
could go far on the waste of America.
His motto is "Strength, the Real Joy
for Germany." England and Scotland
are offering a more general educa
tion than they have before. French
youth is determined not to have
war. A trip to Europe makes one
appreciate America.
After dinner a tour through the
city was made by the entire group.
A visit to the capitol, a picnic supper
served at Antelope Park by Univer
sity 4-H club, a vesper service, games
and a sing finished the day.
On Wednesday group discussion
was on "Possibilities of Rural Voca
tions." Mrs. Alvin Card spoke on
the subject "Rural Home, a Place to
Live." Mrs. Card told of the home as
being material, personal and spir
itual; a place to provide meals,
leisures and inspire hope, character,
fair play, cooperation, clean fun, ap
preciation and faith.
At the convocation period Chan
cellor Boucher spoke upon "Import
ant Decisions." Mr. Boucher talked
cn how one can spend time, the
value of free time, 4-H club work and
Boy Scouts. The music for this period
was by Whittier Junior high school's
splendid orchestra under the direc
tion of Mrs. White.
Following an afternoon tour of
the city campus, a visit to the fire J Week annual banquet took place at
. . i !
department ana a swim at. univer
sity coliseum, the day closed with a
very fine banquet at the Lincoln
Chamber of Commerce. Governor
Cochran was present and Ray Ramsey
acted as master of ceremonies. The
program was most interesting with
the Everett Junior high school boys'
glee club, Harlon Easton's imper
sonations, Irvin Kuklin's tap dancing
and magic by A. A. Ashworth.
Thursday's discussion was "Rural
Heme, a Place to Live." It was
agreed that cooperation is the most
important factor. Dr. A. B. Grahm,
the founder of 4-H club work, spoke
on "As Happy as the Happiest,"
pointing out the beauty, color and
wonders of this swift world. He
urged youth to seize and enjoy to
the full evry opportunity of today.
Dr. Grahm also-told of 4-H work
in 1902. He told how 4-H work and
sxtension work have developed rural
life standards until "the sticks" no
longer exist. Dr. Grahm spoke to
::liib leaders on "Why We Have 4-H
Clubs," "Qualities of Leadership,"
and "Developing Leaders." These
topics were of great benefit to the
leaders of 4-H clubs in Nebraska.
In the afternoon Agricultural Col
lege campus activities were observed
md in the evening the 24th Club
the Activities building, with S. W.
Alford as toastmaster. Dean W. W.
Burr gave the address of welcome.
The program included acrobatic
dances, an unusual roller skating
exhibition and marimba music. Dur-
r
ing this program one boy and one
girl from each group of A, B, and C
were recognized by the vote of their
fellow club members as outstanding
in the activities of the week.
Friday morning a spec ial train took
the entire group to Omaha. In South
Omaha all visited the Swift packing
plant. At noon a luncheon was given
at the Livestock Exchange building.
Lyle DeMoss and the Sophisticated
Rangers supplied plenty of fun. In
the afternoon the group visited the
Burlington and Union stations, then
walked to the Orpheum theater. At
5:30 the 4-H'ers were entertained at
a banquet given by the Omaha Cham
ber of Commerce. A fine program
consisting of rope stunts, chalk talk
and songs was enjoyed by all. At 8
o'clock the happy group left Omaha
for Lincoln.
Saturday morning after breakfast
all departed for their homes with
happy memories and thoughts of
"thank you" to all those who helped
to make it a wonderful time for
everyone.
NO DROWNING FATALITIES
In the report of the two fatalities
listed for the year, a report that
was given at the recent meeting of
the Cass county Red Cross by Mrs.
Raj- Norris of Weeping Water, it
was particularly noted that these
fatalities occurred in the first aid list
and not in the life saving and swim
ming departments. Of the hundreds
of children and young people that
partook in the swimming and life
saving enjoyment, not one was re
ported drowned or otherwise injured,
a record that should not keep any
one from partaking of this popular
sport this summer. Because of the
excellent care and management that
is taken in this department, it is
hoped that a large number will be
out taking the opportunity of learn
ing to swim as well as taking life
guard lessons.

WHAT THE NEIGHBORS SAY
Such neighbors they are, Just
over in the flat;
They watch where I go, and
watch me come back;
They know all that I do, for what
they don't see,
They ask the next neighbor,
what they know about me.
So you ran just rest assured, any
move that you make,
Is seen by your neighbor, and
seen as a mistake;
They are ready to tell you,
what to do and to say.
And give you advice, from
day to day.
Sure they can tell you, how to
win and not lose.
And give good advice, as to
company you choose;
For one thing I ask them, if In
sound of my voice.
Do you really believe that you
made a good choice?
If so, I am thankful, that such
things can be.
But don't listen to neighbors,
don't listen to me;
You must choose for yourself,
friends and your wife;
For nobody living, can live
another one's life.
But there's one thing I find,
while living alone,
You must use your own judg
ment, make your own home;
And as to my. near neighbor,
before It's too late.
Just check your own life,
don't watch my mistake.
M. G. Churchill.
