Future Farmers Have Busy Year The farmers are the founders of civilization. -Webster. Twelve green hands were initiated into the Firelands Chapter of the Future Farmers of America which is under the guidance of Mr. Miller, instructor of vocational agri- culture. To make money the F. F. A. sponsored a scrap drive after Christmas and sold screw driver sets in the spring. During the year the boys parked cars for athletic events, banquets, and other activities which were held at Firelands. They also had a coat check service for the Dairyman's Ban- quet. The boys sponsored a trip to the Sportsman's Show in Cleveland, had a one day trip to Farmer's Week in Colum- bus, and went to Detroit to visit the Ford Tractor Plant and Greenfield Museum. Receives De Kalb Award The DeKalb award to the outstanding senior went to Dale McQueen during the Parents' Night program. Silver awards were presented to Jim Morgan and Lewis for their efforts in the District F. F. A. Public Speaking Contest. Receiving F. F. A.

Commercial Club Gains Experience Diligence is the mother ofgood fortune.-Cervantes. The Commercial Club, under the advisership of Mrs. Ruth Wallace, is to help students to gain a better understanding of the business world and to learn to meet real situations. During the year students helped by typing and duplicating materials for teachers, and several worked as receptionists and helped in the school office. During the athletic season the girls made and sold football and basketball programs. To see others at work, members toured the offices of the Lorain Journal and Thew Shovel in Lorain and Halley's Depart- ment Store in Cleveland. The club is limited to students taking one or more commercial subjects.
