Our Farm Bureau women know that we are no longer bound by the four walls of our kitchen or the four fences of our farm or ranch. We are aware and alert to the fact that we are a citizen of, not only our immediate community, but of our country and of the world. Whatever happened in any part of the world will have a bearing on the life within our home and our community and our family. A April, 1973 FARM BUREAU NEWS thermometer doesnt do anything about the temperature, it just sits there and records. A thermostat, however, is very different. A thermostat does something about the room temperature. It goes into action. It gets the message to heat or cool and the furnace responds to comply. The big question is leadership! We are beginning to realize that a great many of our problems are our concern and responsibility. We cant leave them to someone else. There are people all around us who can see whats wrong with society, but only leaders do something about it. Every leader worthy of the name has a certain something inside that prompts her to get involved to better her community. The challenge is to know when to stop being a thermometer and become a thermostat. Our workshop sharpened up our leadership abilities and made us aware of how to be more effective the moral environment, strengthening fiber, planning estates and personal finances and leadership techniques. We in Farm Bureau have a moral commitment to preserve healthful environment and to meet the challenges- of pornography, drug abuse and other crimes, rnembering our first responsibilities in , our own families and then extending our concern beyond our walls into the community where we live. - Now this reminder that the second annual national defensive A driver week will by April safer America demands that every driver learn defensive driving 7-1- 4. techniques.

Disposing of moveable stolen property at prices requires stolen property several times the value of drug habit. The characteristics of an effective leader were disclosed by C. Booth Wallentine at the dinner session. Getting people to do things that you want done so they want to do them and enjoy the activity is indicative of leadership ability.

A will is important because it is a method of distributing the deceaseds property and because many situations require unequal distribution, Jardine pointed out. A trust can be a very good way to take ownership and alleviate tax problems and distribution of property at death of family heads. John Young, CLU, gave some example of estate situations that could be adequately resolved by using insurance to provide liquid assets at the time of death to keep estate in tact and operating as well as distribute estate holdings at minimal costs to parties involved. Highlighting the conference was Elder Loren C. Dunn, First Council of Seventy, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-da- y Saints.
