EUTURE HGUMEMAKERS OE AMERTCA The Future Homemakers Club is composed of girls enrolled in the homemak- ing course in our school. Girls in senior, junior, and sophomore classes are eligible for membership. We have twenty-one members, each of whom is enthusiastic about making the club a success. At our first meeting, October 14, 1947, we elected the following officers: Presi- dent, Marion Horstg Vice President, Dorothy Robinsong Secretary, Gladys Smithg Treasurer, Mary Ellen Faubel, and Historian, Doris Zeigler. A Hallowe'en Party was held at Arlene Haldeman's home on November 3 and at Christmas time we drew names and exchanged gifts. We all had a grand time at our parties but after that we decided it was about time to get down to business. We held a food sale on February 14 and planned to be in charge of the sale of con- cessions at the Circus by the Gym Team, May 7 and 8. These- are projects for mak- ing money to be put toward a fund we are building up for an educational trip which we hope will climax this year's club activities. EUTURE EARMERS OE AMERICA The F. F. A. is an organization consisting of Vocational Agriculture boys only. We have meetings monthly at our school and each member is required to pay dues. At the end of the school year, the F. F. A. has a party or a Wiener roast. The F. F. A. boys attended the Farm Show for one day this year and will spend at least two days at Penn State College next summer. Another successful year is drawing to a close for the Greencastle Chapter. One of our most successful activities was the tomato project, sponsored by the Green- castle Packing Co. Our Treasurer, Harold Young, won a twenty-five dollar cash prize, and a free three-day trip to Washington, D. C. Last year he won the same prize with a trip to New York City. The Citizens National Bank sponsored a hog project for the club. Our presi- dent, Glenn Hykes, won second prize, for the second consecutive year, with the club entry in the brood sow division at the Fulton County Fair. Our Secretary and Treasurer, Nathan Myers and Harold Young, are delegates to the Franklin-Adams Area Farmer, which is an organization of all Franklin and Adams chapters. Page Twenty-Six

Our first meeting was devoted to the election of odficers. At the second meeting we initiated our new members. Our initiates were required to wear a weird attire of vari-colored socks, hair ribbons, and reversed skirts. The thing that really made them the center of attention was the dolls which they carried. We soon put aside this frivolity and set to work on the more serious side of our year's activity. This included quiz programs, musicals, and programs of a drama- jiUNioR Hi-Y The Junior Hi-Y produced programs in keeping with the seasons. We en- joyed predicting college football results during the autumn months. At the same time we had several quiz programs. Our Christ-mas program consisted of the read- ing of the Christmas story and the singing of familiar carols. An additional project :nt this season was the sending of a basket of fruit to John Buchanan. John, who would have been one of our members this year was injured in an accident last sum- mer and was unable to attend school this season. A high light of the second semes- ter was a program of folk ballads presented by a member, Vernon Stockslager. Ad- ditional programs are planned for the spring season.
