- MANY IDEAS EXCHANGED
i Many Young Men and
Women Are Active in |
This Program,
Savannah, Ga.—lt is hoped tiht
the early date of the Georgia State
- Fair—namely, Sept. 27-Oct. 2—will
afford opportunity for a larger at
tendance of boys' and girls’ clubs,
a feature that gained the manage
' ment so ‘much praise at lass yests
- Fair. Miss Katherine Lanter, di
. trlet home demonstration agent,
sdys: “Club work at the Georgia
State Fair means more thah Jjust
~ the winning ot a prize by the club
members, It is simply a part of a
year’s program where hundreds of
_young men and women are doing
_practical and constructive work
~ over the state. The contest feature
of the Fair activities is merely a
means tovdn ‘end, rathér than any
~ direct end in itself.”
~ Club exhibits show the value of
~ the methods employed, offer an op
portunity for ome member to see
‘ what otfers are doing and train
members to know and to select
. ‘good products. Any member, for
example, who can seleci a good .
*exhibit 6f;tofty will be equally able
| ‘to.select good. seed corns
Y. A judgd, ¥ üb:z completing “his
work last year, made the following
qtfitqfi!ent relative to the exhibitors
Jearning the lessons jnvolved In 'ge
lecting good products: “The young
people (referring to club members)
have learned these lessons bettefy’
than their elders.” 7
Contests between demonstgcfion
teams or between stock-}adglng
. teams likewise have th? value.
The teams are merély a?- utgrowth
of a program where g‘large num
ber of members reo;ived practical
training before a team was select
ed. The cantest t}dture simply adds
zest and spirit. P
The practices advocated by the
demonstratiofl teams also have a
public val;x&. “I learned more than
| at any meeting on the same sub
ject that’ I ever atfended,” was
the statément of a man upon leav
ing at the clode of a demonstration
givén by a club team.
Club members also gather much
practical information at a fair. The
opportunity to mingle with and to
_ meet the adult exhibitors and to
" study the general exhibits is worth
much in enabling the club members
to carry useful ideas back to their
home comfhunities.
“Fairs and expositions are the
‘time keepers of progress, recording
the -‘warld’s achievements and open
ing mighty storehouses of infor
mation to all the people,” is a state
' ment once made by President Mc-
Kinley. Club members make up a
part of “ell the people” and their
work wilt again be a feature at the
Georgia State Fair at Savannah,
- Sept, 27-Oct. 2. :

ders That Drifters Will Get
Warm Reception. |

‘tion in vhét event, he predicted,
Governcr Smith, of New York, was
termed by Mr. Cox “a good chap
anywhere you put him,” but said
Ohio’s support of Smith for . the
democratic ‘presidential nomination
hinged on whether former Senator

candidate, P . ‘
“As for prohibition, I doubt very;
much whether~prohibition will be u:
