In the summer of 1928 .1 temporary constitution, purposes, and vfr. Iavornilr supervises two of his vocational agriculture students as thev are welding 1 ceremonies, patterned after that of the Future Farmers of Virginia was drafted by the staff of the Agriculture Educa- tion Service of the Federal Board for Vocational Education. The first national convention was held in November, 1908. Since that time the growth of the F.F.A. has ex- tended to Hawaii and Puerto Rico. The primary aim of the F.F.A. is the development of agricultural lead- ership, cooperation, and citizenship. Some of the specific purposes for which the organization was formed are as follows: fat To encourage im- provement in scholarship, thy To en- courage and practice thrift, td To participate in cooperative efforts, and Qdj To create and nurture a love for country life. The Pine Township chapter of the F.F.A. was organized in 1950. Since that time the group has gone on many interesting field trips. In October, 1951, the sophomore class attended a swine castration demonstration given hy Mr. Isaac Slippy at farm. In january and Fehruary the F.F.A. haslcethall team played the teams of Elders Ridge, Commodore, Ehenshurg, and the Pine Twp. faculty. In .lanuary we had the Chapter Farmer Initiation hy the Ehenshurg F.F.A. Chapter. On Feb- ruary li five boys attended the F.F.A. Berkshire sale at Indiana.

The liuture Homemakers of' Amer- ita Club began its 1951-1952 year under the direction of our new adviser, Miss Hall, home economics teacher. We began our year with a project to help finance club expenses. For this we chose selling french-fries and pea- nuts at football games. The lf.H.A. Regional Convention was held on October 3, 1951 at In- diana, Pennsylvania. A few of the members from our organization at- tended this meeting. We were proud to have Evelyn Lingenfelter and Sally l.unn lead discussions as part of the meeting. To raise more funds for our club, we decided to sponsor several dances, the first of which was held on Sep- tember 28, 1951. All of the profit was put into our treasury. We held two more dances after this. The first one was on October 26, 1951, and the second on December 21, 1951, both proving to he successful and adding more funds to our treasury. Each month our club receives a Teen-Times magazine which tells of the activities of F.H.A. Chapters in other high schools. To make our meetings more interest- ing, Miss Ball decided to show films that would he educational and enter- taining to the club. Since our club was in need of money for sending delegates to the State l7.H.A. Convention in Pittsburgh, a bake sale was held on January 25, 1952. Two delegates were elected to attend this convention at the club's expense. They were Norma Joiner and Irene Oros, both seniors. Three mothers were selected to act as chaperones on the trip to Pittsburgh. They were Mrs. Slanoc and Mrs. Ratay, along with Mrs. Della Valle. Thus ended another F.H.A. Club year. I Junior FHA.
