4-H JUNIOR LEADERS Prepared by Ruth Ann Nine, North Webster.) Junior leaders are an important part of any 4-H club. It is their duties to assist the adult leader tn any way posisble.-Junior leadership provides an opportunity for the personal development of leadership ability. With leadership comes work. As one Junior leader said, “I have found that if you want the honor of being a Junior leader you have to do some extra work.” This extra work might be small but it all means something. A Junior leader helps in re-organization of the club and enrollment of the members. He or she assists in the planning of the club program for the year. Some Junior Leaders are assigned a certain group of club members and he or she must see that these members complete. Junior leaders have many duties at club camp, county fair, and local county Termites DO NOT LET TERMITES EAT AWAY YOUR HOME.

achievement programs. Lastly they attend all possible Junior Leader meetings and participate in these meetings. A Junior Leader not only has work to do but he or she has many things that can be learned each year that he or she is working with new 4-H club members. Here are a few examples of some things that they say they have learned: “The first thing I learned was that the smaller members of ydur club look up to you and expect help and leadership. I went to 4H camp and found that the smaller ones depend on you more than I ever knew. Sometimes they get homesick and ybu have to cheer them up or they may feel they are slighted in some way and you have to show them that everyone at camp is their friend.” During my first year as a Junior leader I learned that I was not too young to be an officer in the county organization. Thus 4H! began to develop my sense of responsibility. “I wanted to be a Junior leader .... I learned that you had set an example for the younger members.” A Junior leader not only has much work to do and carries many responsibilities but he or she has to be a friend to all. Kosciusko County has a well organized group of Junior leaders and assistants. They have their own officers. These officers are persons who have learned what responsibility means and are doing much to help with the advencement of 4-H club work in this county.

ABOVE THE HULLA9ALOO By LYTLE HULL KjOT ONE MAN, of all those who I ’ are filling the air with platlItudes and bromides about sending ’or not sending troops to Europe, but realizes, that if the Russian hordes attack, these troops will be destroyed unless they can retreat into an armed Spain! Why hasn’t I a single one of them the political I guts to get up on his hind legs and tell the country the truth? What if they do lose the votes of those whom Red propaganda has fooled? The Spaniards know what win happen if Russia decides to take Europe—and these orators and legislators of ours know it also. They know that Russia win probably drop thousands of paratroopers in the vital parts of an unarmed Spain and, within a few days, could bring in half a million more fighters by air—and we haven’t the air-power to stop them. Where then do these young men of ours go? Right straight into the water off the coasts of France? Instead of which—if our politicians had the bravery to disregard a few group votes—an armed Spain could save the lives of these men; could control the mouth of the Mediterranean; could enfilade the North African coast, and the Atlantic coast to the north and south; and could hold the only beachhead available in western Europe. If Spain were armed Russia would not dare attack western Europe! Why don’t these politicians say so? Why doesn’t just one of them say so? Hoover, Dewey, Taft, even Eisenhower, I mention the need of Spain’s help ; with bated breath or in small print And the administration apparently never heard of the Iberian Peninsula! 1 .JWb believe that*iF one brave man i —disregarding the ignorant oppo- | sition of the Anti-Spanish groups— I explained the situation to the American people, and to the world, he could have any office he wanted when Western civilization finally realized what it owed him. "I RIMEMBER" BY THE OLD TIMERS - From Mrs. W. C. Blaine, Tuscola, Hlu I remember when the whole family gathered in the parlor on cold winter nights. Mother would play the organ and the family would sing JUST BECAUSE YOJ> MADE THEM GOO-GOO EYE& V PUT YOUR ARMS AROUND ME HONEY, HOLD ME TIGHT, RED WING. We would wind up the evening singing Stephen Foster songs and hymns. From Mrs. Bessie K. Hubbell, Ada, Ohio: I remember when women at 40 stopped wearing hats and wore straw, silk or velvet bonnets with ribbon ties to make a bow under the chin. They wore somber clothes and never all white. From Mrs. M. E. Stanley, Milton. yt.: I remember, when a girl, father making butter, packing it in tubs, then in early morning when cool, driving 14 miles to sell it for 15 cents a pound. Also when women and girls had high button shoes, flour sold for 75 cents for a 25-Ib. sack. Eggs were only 10 and 12 cents a dozen. t From Edna Marsh, Blairsville, Pa.: I reAember when women wore shirtwaists with high neck and stiff collars up against their jaws. Some collars were ribbon wound around their necks. Hair was pinned on top of their heads with a puff all around their heads, kept out by hair “rats.” From Mrs. Ella M. Conant, Plymouth, Mich.: I remember when we slept on "ticks” filled with dried corn husks. When housecleaning time came, mother would empty the husks on a clean sheet in the yard. It was my job to pick the husks up one at a time, shake out dust and put them in a clean “tick." We called them “ticks” because they were made of ticking. When washing, all white clothes were boiled in a large copper boiler placed on a wood range.

Jobless Claims Decrease Past Week A 2,300 decrease in job insurance claims during the week of Feb. 24 was reported today by John W. Crise, director of the Indiana Employment Security Division. He said 15,967 claims were received, 13 per cent fewer than during the previous week and 64 per cent less than the volume of the same week a year ago. Mr. Crise explained that better weather permitted a gradual reemployment of quarry and con--struction workers. He said that the number of claims may have been reduced also by the closing of Division offices on Feb. 22. The crude rubber shortage resulted in two small layoffs in the

rubber industry last week, and the uncertainty of supplies for manfacture of plastics was bringing about production problems in that industry. Mr. Crise pointed out, however, that, despite these incidents, employment remained high throughout the state. The number of job openings reported to 'Division offices in the week ending Feb. 2'4 was 85 per cent above the total for the same week in 1950. More people were placed on jobs during the week before, and placements were nearly 60 per cent higher than at this time a year ago. Mr. and Mrs. J. B.

Impostors Pose As Termite Inspectors LAFAYETTE, Ind., March 5— Reports are being received at Purdue University of persons who claim to be termite inspectors for the U. S. Department of Agriculture or for Indiana. According to Prof. J. J. Davis, head of the department of entomology, these persons are making house to house calls and offer to inspect premises free of charge. However, Prof. Davis says neither the federal or state governments have termite inspectors and such persons are impostors who should be reported to police authorities. The department of entomology is also interested in knowing the names of such persons or companies so represented. The Purdue man says that termite infestations can be controlled and that there are reliable and capable termite operators in most areas of the state. A list of qualified operators in Indiana is avail-

able from the department of entoomology. Reliable operators have a permanent address and can produce evidence from their Chamber of Commerce or Better Business Bureau. Bank or other financial recommendations give no evidence of reliability as termite operators. Persons who insist that treatment must not be delayed may be questionable. Delay in treatment for a few weeks or even months will make little difference. There is ample time to inquire of Purdue as to the dependability of any operator once the presence of termites is known. Some operators who are questionable refer to their chemical products as private formula or an imported product. To the knowledge of the Purdue entomologists there is no chemical effective for termite control that is not known to entomologists. Success in termite control is a thorough knowledge of termites and how to apply controls.
