Preparing For A Better Tomorrow Future Farmers of America is an or- ganization of vocational agricultural a- gribusiness education. Topics of study range from small engine repair, weld- ing, woodworking, fisfi and wildlife to the world of agribusiness. FFA members sold over 700 boxes of fruit at their annual Christmas sale. An educational trip to the state fair was made in the fall. In the spring members competed in dairy, land, livestocl , and forestry judging. In the forestry division of the competition, the team placed second. Community projects were performed by the FFA ' ers. After the bad storm many tree limbs were broken. Mem- bers went out to various houses in the local area and pruned the trees in or- der for them to grow back correctly.

Everyone lives some- where and needs to know how to make that home the best place to be. Members planned and gave a Christmas party for the children at the Child Development Day Care Center. They brightened up the children ' s Christmas by serving them delicious refreshments and providing small gifts for each child. In the past, National FHA week was observed by serving milk and cookies to the school. This year, however, an assembly was scheduled for the high school. An Academy Award nominat- ed f ilm was shown about a severely handicapped man named Leo Beur- men. The film touched the hearts of many students and made them realize that no matter how bad off you think you are there is always someone who is not as fortunate as you. SHARON RAGSDALE HAS learned that to be able to sew means that one can have many new clothes.
