AGRICULTURE CLUB J BIEMBERS Balsbaugh, Clair Aungst, Norman Bishop, Booser Eshenaur, Roy Yeager, George Laudenslager, Glen Hocker, Blaine Erb, Hoffman Ebersole, Wilbiir Stazewski, John Ebersole, Christian Hadley, Harry The'Agricultural class was organized in the fall of 1919, under the super- vision of Mr. B. H. Engle. The class meets for an eighty-minute period once a Week. The class is given instruction along the various phases of agricultural work. During the preceeding years the class studied a more generalized course, but this year the course is narrowed down to one specific subject, Poultry. Our class has turned out boys who have judged on the champion Pennsyl- vania teams. One of our boys went to St. Louis a.nd another to Chicago with the Pennsylvania Livestock Judging Teams. 'The class has not met regularly since the middle of January, owing to the resignation of Mr. Engle as Vocational Agriculture Supervisor. VVe believe that the class has done niueh good in the community. The aim of the class is to better the materials and methods now used in agriculture. -27-
