"CITIZ ENSHIP" IN ACTION

From the National 4-H Club Foundation in Washington, D. C. comes theinstructor of Group V, Dorothy Emerson. ”Different" is a word which describesthis class; Mrs. Emerson helps to make it enjoyable, interesting and educationalthrough her own unique way which everyone likes. To begin with, she says to findrecreation in the joy of learning.

Mrs. Emerson points out that in giving a demonstration we should M Y O B(mind your own business); in other words, keep on the subject, use timing - seewhat you say when you say it, and K I S S (Keep it simple, stupid).

Most of us have trouble in getting things done. Well, Mrs. Emerson says toremember these ten Z-letter words — "If it is to be, it is up to me. " When you areasked to do something, don't say, "Who, me?" but, ”I'll be glad to!" Always bean AMER - I - CAN! Lastly, our teacher says to be a K O P (keep on the positiveside). After finishing a task, say, ”I ain't what I want to be. I ain't what I oughtto be, but I ain't what Iwas !!”
