(By H. Y. COOK. Farm Agent)
The requirement for membership
in 4-H clubs is *. at the bey or girl
joining the club shall conduct a
piece of work or put on a demon
stration under guidance, showing the
better way of growing an acre of
com or cotton, raising a flock of
poultry, a calf or a pig. or doing
other things of like character on the
farm which has a meaning for the
farm family ana rural community,
as well as for the boy or girl.
The symbol of the 4-H club is
the Four Leaf Clover, with the let
ter "H” on each leaf. The H’s stand
For Head, Heart Hand and Health.
Explanation 0! their meaning is
found in the club pledge which runs
: follows:
I pledge:
My head to dearer thinking; my
heart to greater loyalty: my hands
to larger service; and my health tc
better living for my club, my com
munity and my country.
The main objective is to bring the
boys and girls in contact with the
progressive things in agriculture and
rural life, make them feel that agri
culture and home making are a real
part of science and art and worthy
of c«ur best efforts and support—let
them see the interesting side of
agriculture as interpreted by those
who love it.
Now what does club work mean
for the boy or girl?
First they learn to do some worth
while thing in the best way. Their
interest is aroused in the work be
cause it is of importance
family or the community. Their
minds arc interested. Here
semething not out of books, but
part of life. There is competition
and contest in it. It is a game, not
vork.
Second, young folks at an impres
sionable age are brought in contact
with the outstanding farm men and
women, with the County Agent.
Club agent. Extension Specialist,
men and women with college train
ing, with bankers, business men, fair
officials, people who have achieved
and whose success warrants emula
tion.
Third, through the club meetings
they early learn something of p&rli-
mentary law, how to preside at
meetings, how to appoint committees,
how to make a report, how to work
together to carry out a program.
Here they get the beginning of
operation, one of the greatest needs
J of rural people.
Fourth, their outlook is broadened
through their attendance at county,
state and regional club camps, the
visit of many tc the State College of
Agriculture where they spend a
week in instruction, sight seeing,
listening to inspirational talks, their
attendance at County. Slate apd Na
tional fairs where many make ex-
jhibits. This all stimulates ambition
and interest and helps lift the vision.
Fifth, the work reaches both boys
and girls in school and boys and by any means you may**
girls out of school. It teaches them allowance ct! five cent*
that it is the trained men and wo-
who succeed these days. It en
courages them to go back to school
if they have left it and complete the
high school work or go on to col
lege or take vocational course. 4-H
Club Work is a strong supplement
to school work and makes wide
of native leadership found in every
community if looked for and given
a job.

Mr. Rogers says:
"The Central of Georgia Railway
has just put into effect pick-up and
delivery service’ for less-than-car-
load freight shipments inbound or
outbound over our line. Inaugura
tion of this added convenience by
my company and other railroads con
necting with it, all ever the South
east and in other sections, is one of
the most important changes ever
made in railroad service.
“Briefly the new plan is this: We
send for your less-than-carload
shipments and at no charge to you
haul these to our warehouse. We
likewise deliver inbound less-than-
carload shipments without any
charge for such delivery service. If

Oie of the points stressed bjl
