There were also musical numbers, a song by Dorothy Steen and Theona Jacobson, and a selection by the Mixed Octet. 4-H CLUB The Clinton chapter of the 4-H club is called the Junior Home Makers Club. We have an enrollment of thirty-one members. Regular meetings are held on the first Wednesday of every month. Upon agreeing to carry out one or more projects and with the consent of his parents, anyone between the ages of ten and twenty-one may join. The 4-H club organization offers to its members much more than its main object of learning through experience how to conduct approved practices in agriculture and home economics. It provides opportunities for making new friends, earning or saving money, enjoying wholesome social contactsg en- joying nature, books, art, good health, improving personalityg developing a sense of comradeship and cooperation, and learning early to exercise good judgements in making life decisions. 4-H clubs, deeply rooted in the nation, prepare youth for life. It is a great organization.
