Club If the boys have been absenting themselves from our meetings realized how much they were missing, we are sure they would nol let such an opportunity for development pass unheeded. Not only are the boys in school invited to come and hear some of the most experienced men of our state lecture on agriculture and relative subjects, but the invitation is extended to the citizens of the community, as well. We know that there is valuable information of practical worth to be had by anyone who is willing to spend the hour once a week in our club room. Men who have faced the battle of life and won, tell us how they did it so that we may profit by their experience, and avoid the dangers which they encountered. Our club is making practical not who theoretical farmers. The speakers in our recent meetings have been Charles W. Seegmiller, Arthur K. llafeii and W. C. Winder. Mr. Seegmiller of his spoke early experiences in Dixie and of the great need of efficiency by those who would be Mr. Hafen successful in life. spoke on the Federal Farm Loan Act and how it is to help the farmer. 1M. Winder spoke on the dairy problem. Our last meeting was spent in making sample tests of milk which will aid us in better acquainting ourselves with 'the relative merits of our own cows. H. E. Club Although not much appears in print from our club we are still going on and making good, but our mission is to become good housekeepers rather than writers. Two Tuesday evenings in each month a jolly crowd of girls meet together to chat, sew, listen to lectures, read, or whatever else may come our way in the line of instruction or amusement. There are old girls, young girls, big girls and little girls, all busy together, tatting, crocheting and embroidering, some working toward marry chests and some toward hope chests. We have had some jolly parties and sociais with our neighbors, the Aggs, who hold their meetings in the room just below us, and they sometimes discontinue their club to join us in our fun. And we certainly do have fun, the boys are dandy hosts and seem to think we are good hostesses. Our activities are not at the highest pitch just at present, due to extra school work, but in a short as spring comes and with it new ambition and life, you will be sure io hear from the If. E. and Aggs club if it is only a game of hike and seek, or it may be a supper, or a chicken roast, but whatever it if, it will be something worth while and something lively. Club Reporter.
