My Trip To National 4-H Club Congress
By THOMAS FREEMAN
On Saturday morning at 9:45
[o’clock a group of 30 leaders and
[state winners left Atlanta for Chi
cago. At first everybody was a lit
j tie timid but after a few hours of
riding we all knew each other and
everybody was having a grand time.
We arrived in Chicago at 8 o’clock
Sunday morning and went immedi
ately to the Morrison Hotel where
we were to stay while in Chicago.
After a few hours of rest we went
on a 45-mile tour of Chicago. Dur
i
ing the tour we saw the Fountain
of Time in Grant Park. We also
visited the Rockefeller Memorial
Chapel at Chicago University. Dur
ing the tour we went to Chicago’s
Chinatown. We went to the Sun
day Evening Club Sunday night.
On Monday most of my day was
filled with health examinations.
Monday afternoon and night we
were entertained by Thomas E.
Wilson. After the entertainment
by Thomas E. Wilson we went to
the National Livestock Show where
1,700 4-H Club members took part
in a parade in the ampitheatcr in
the stockyards.
Tuesday morning the boys went
to Armour and Company where we
had breakfast. After breakfast we
went on a 3 hour tour of Armour
and Swift packing plants. Here we
saw 450 hogs slaughtered in 1 hour,
500 sheep, and 150 cattle. After
the tour we had complimentary lun
cheon and entertainment at the Pan
ther Room of the Sherman Hotel
given by the National Livestock
Marketing Association.
Wednesday our program included
a tour of the International Harves
ter Company. We also had compli
mentary luncheon as guests of In
ternational Harvester. Wednesday
night we went to our Annual
Achievement banquet where the win
ners in the different contests were
announced. Annie Lois made a talk
on 4-H Club work before 1,700 4-H
Club members; she did a grand job
of it too!
Thursday the boys went to the.
Museum of Natural History and
Shedd Aquarium. After this tour
we were entertained at luncheon by
Sears, Roebuck and Cos. at the Grand
Ballroom of the Stevens Hotel.
We left for Detroit Thursday
night and arrived early Friday morn-

THE JACKSON PROGRESS-ARGUS. JACKSON, GEORGIA
; ing. We made a short trip into
Canada. During our tour of De
troit we went to Dearborn and vis
ited the Ford plant. Friday after
noon we went to Greenfield village
which is a hobby of Henry' Ford.
Here there are many famous build
ings, one of which was Thomas A.
Edison’s laboratory. In this lab
oratory everything is just like Edi
son left it. There are two memorial
fires burning in this building. We
also saw the courthouse in which
Lincoln won some of his first cases.
The chair in which Lincoln was as
sasinated was there.
We left Detroit Friday afternoon
and went back to Chicago. From
Chicago we went to St. Louis where
we visited the St. Louis Zoo and
saw Lindbergh’s trophies.
Saturday afternoon we pulled out
of St. Louis bound for home. We
arrived in Atlanta about 10 o’clock
Sunday morning and I think every
body was glad to get back to good
old Georgia!
This trip has been the climax of
my 4-H Club career and I feel sure
this would not have been possible
had it not been for the untiring ef
forts of Mr. Powell and Miss Mc-
Googan.
