Kent, the SOUTH HILL CHAPTER OF THE FUTURE FARMERS OF AMERICA has pro ved very suc- cessful. The chapter takes great pleasure in thanking each and every one who has taken part in makingits success. The chapter is built around co-operation and it hopes to continue its growth and success in the coming years. In 1938, the SOUTH HILL CHAPTER, under the leadership of Mr. E. Y. Noblin, was given the recognition at the National FFA Convention in Kansas City, Missouri, as being the most out- standing FFA Chapter in the Nation. It is with great pride that this, the SOUTH HILL CHAPTER OF FUTURE FARMERS OF AMERICA, fades out of the growth of progress to re-appear under the new name in the advanced consolidated high school which we hope to have next year.

McCall. The Junior Library Club was organized in 1951 for freshmen only. The club for the upper clas smen was then call- ed the Senior Library Club. When Mrs. Virginia Boswell was librarian, a constitution and by-laws for the club was written and adopted. Also the custom of taking a trip to a place of historical interest where a large library is located was begun. Through the years the club has been one of the most active in the school. A meeting, which includes business and a program, is held each month. Members of the club help with the routine work of the library and stimulate interest for reading among the students. Book week is observed each year in many different ways. Bookmarks are sold and the proceeds are used to send a CARE package of books to some foreign country. The club strives to help the school in every possible way.
