By Youth Agem JERRI WIllfAMB

Last week, I attended two interesting 4-H meetings. On Thursday, the Franklin Twp. Farm Bureau sponsored a supper for the 4-H members of the Roachdale area. There was a large number of people present which shows the support of the local community. The Roachdale clubs had a good completion this year, as they had two good leaders in Byron Gough and Mrs. Francis Asher. The parents and members were very appreciative of their leadership. Ted Britton, a former 4-H member of Roachdale. gave the program. Ted gave several interesting accounts of what 4-H had done for him. He gave several examples which had a touch of humor. Mrs. Asher has retired as a 4-H leader, due to other responsibilities. We hate to lose her because she has done good work in her three years as a leader. The other meeting was a hayride and wiener roast that the Jr. Leaders held on Finday night. The temperature was a little brisk, but the truck was full enough with members that they didn’t seem to notice the temperature too much. After the wiener roast at the Fairgrounds, they went on a hayride, which included a stop at the local miniature golf course. This wae probably one of the first invasions by a hayride that the golf course has had. The next 4-H Jr. Leader Activities arc the planning of a Barn Dance and a trip to a college football game. The barn dance will not be what is normally thought of. but modern dancing in a barn. This Saturday marks the beginning of National 4-H Club Week. Some two and a quarter million 4-H members across th# United States will be observing this in some way. This mark* the beginning of another year for many members and clubs.

The grime of winter will have collected, so use paper towels, or old cloths that may be discarded. I have done this for three years and our gym frames are just like new. Mrs. E. S. K.

A few Wests led the single* ton diamond; others felt it wa* best to attack clubs. Our story concerns Itself with a table where the bidding went aa shown and West led a trump. Here the declarer had to struggle to make six, not having th*

advantage of a heart lead.

« After drawing three rounds of trumps, declarer led the A-K of diamonds and discovered that the diamonds were blocked bo that he could not run the suit to discard one of his club losers on

dummy’s fifth diamond.

The prospect of losing two club tricks and going down in the slam did not appeal to thi* particular declarer any mor* than it would to anyone else. But instead of spending his time bemoaning the failure of the diamonds to break 2-2, which

Final contracts ranged from a game to a grand slam in spades or diamonds with the North-South cards, and from five to seven hearts doubled with the East-West cards. West’s opening lead also varied considerably. In most cases a heart was led in response to East’s overcall. De-

very easy to make, South de« voted all his thoughts to overcoming the diamond block. In line with this, he led the jack of hearts from dummy and discarded a diamond when East followed low. West took tha heart with the queen, but th* diamonds having become unblocked. South had no difficulty making the rest of the tricka since he was now able to park

Pest of the Week Horticultural

Tips

Tall Fescue “Tic - Tac - Toe” i Tall fescue is a clumpy, dark green, coarse-leaved, fast-grow-mg, bunch gr ass. It is most obvious in early spring and late fall. If your lawn has an abun- ' dance of this pesky grass, now is the time to take care of it. Play tic-tac-toe with a knife, machete or spade on each clump. Repeat this treatment in two weeks. This will weaken the tall fescue clumps and allow bluegrass to take over. To make bluegrass competitive, to crowd out weakened tall fescue, it should be well fed (with at

least a spring and fall application of fertilizer). Don’t allow tall fescue clumps to ruin tho uniformity of your lawn. Tic-tac-toe will put TALL FESCUE on the GO!!!
