COLORED PEOPLES 4-H CLUB
NEWS
First, I will say a few words a
bout what Prof. T. M. Campbell,
Field Agent U. S. Department of
Agriculture, said about home demon
stration work among the Negroes of
the South. I feel sure that; every
one who is familiar with existing
conditions in the South can not dis
pute the assertion that since his
emancipation, the rural Negro has
made more progress in other things
than he has in his home life. Prof.
Campbell said, “He has accumulated
vast holdings of land, live stock, built
creditable churches, supplemented
county and state agents for the de
velopment of schools for his chil
dren, but lagged pitifully behind in
acquiring and maintenance a well
ordered farm home to live in.
He said in studying the rural Ne
groes, it is revealed that many are
"land poor,” due to the fact that
past Negro leaders emphasized the
importance of buying land and mini
mized the necessity of building com
fortable homes. Asa result, Ne
groes are found all over the South
with large land holdings, and living
in shacks equal to those where they
house the live stock.
The introduction of home demon
stration work into the Negroes’ life
is bringing a wonderful change. This
phase of work, supplemented by fed
eral and state government, is per
haps the most far reaching of any
thing that has come to him since ho
received his freedom.
Those of us who are engaged in
this work realize that there will be
no permanent progress among rural
Negroes until imbued with the idea
of a well ordered home in which to
live. All other farm activities hinge
around this one important factor.
The farm women seem to have in
nate ability to take a little and make
it go farther than most of the men.
TJie need of better and more com
fortable homes for rural Negro fami
lies is of a serious concern to the
Negro home demonstration agents.
We find that the Negro homes are
over crowded, and sanitation poor.
It is gratifying to know that the Na
tional Homo Owners Act has includ
ed the repairing and construction of
rural homes in its progrnm, which
should be a boon to rural masses.
Despite the fact they have very lit
tle to spend for dire necessities, the
rural women, with the help of the
home agents, have made wonderful
improvement. With a few boards
and dyed sacks, they have made
clothes closets; orange crates,
have been converted into dressing
tables, book cases, etc. Durable rugs,
)>ed spreads, curtains, have been
made from sacks of all descriptions.
The more aggressive women have
made money by selling berries, straw
brooms, garden surplus, poultry and
dairy products. Money from these
petty sales has been used to carry
the family while the crops are being
made, to pay school entrance fees,
and to even pay taxes at the court
house.
There are no social centers in the
communities, especially among Ne
groes. Life to them has little vari
ation from working, eating, sleep
ing, except a few months of school
for the young, but with the coming
of the home demonstration agent,
there have been organized, for old
and young, community play groups,
which . teaches games, folk dances,
songs, and other activities that bring
diversion, amusement and entertain
ment into the lives of rural Ne
groes.”
Wills Academy 4-H club met at
the school house January 28th, with
16 members present, with the presi
dent presiding. Demonstration in

THE OLD HOME TOWN
I went back to the old home town
Through Memory Lane tonight—
I saw the things I ujed to know—
To me it was such a good sight.
I walked along the same old streets
Seeing some of the people—
I saw the village as it was
The church with its tall steeple.
I listened once again
To the songs w'e used to sing—
The jokes and prattle we used to
hear.
O! the mem’ries they did bring.
But my home town has grown up
some
Though the people are much the
same
This thing called "Life" has brought
them out
The folks are playin’ the game.
O! for time to reverse its trend.
And make me a child once more
And take me backward on my jour
ney
To those days so long ago.
But know I cannot now go back
Except through Memory Lane,
It helps to know that here and now
The real things have not changed.
