BIRTH OF A NEW DEPARTMENT On J'uly 1, 1948, a new department was added to the Bristow School. Although it is new here, Vocational Agriculture Departments have been known for many years throughout the nation, It has long been felt that agriculture is necessary to the well being of farm people and the nation. Within the United States, there are more than 9,000 schools that offer a four year course in vocational agriculture. We, of the school, are proud of such a department and hope that the community is just as proud Since agriculture is the basic industry of our great nation, funds have been set aside by the Federal Government to aid in this Vocational Agriculture program. The Future Farmers of America, an organization of Vocational Agriculture boys, has become an integral part of the vocational education in agriculture in the public school systems of America, and has become well known in recent years. These organizations date back to 1928 and since that time have served to motivate and vitalize the systematic instruction offered to students of Vocational Agriculture, and to provide further training in farmer-citizenship. The F.F.A. is a non-profit, non-political, farm youth organization of voluntary membership, designed to take its place along with other agencies striving for the development of leadership, the building of a more permanent agriculture, and the improvement of country life. A few of the activities we are attempting in our first year of F.F.A. are: Setting up our chapter room with necessary paraphernalia. Buying certified seed corn co-operatively for boys and dads. Selling certified, root-rot resistant varieties of tobacco seed. Adding to our library within our chapter room. Subscribing to two good farm magazines for our chapter. Holding a father and son banquet for purpose of establishing a closer association be- tween dads and boys and between farmers. Accepting as our responsibilities the care of the school grounds. Encouraging better farming methods in community. Sponsoring F.F.A. softball and basketball teams for development of health and fair play. Our Motto is: Learning to do Doing to learn Earning to live Living to serve. We hope that the F.F.A. will be of service to the school and the community. We want to make it a better place to live. Let's learn together. 42
