BOYS and
GIRLS CLUBS
ORGANIZE
Will Be Found All Over the
State.
Idea is to Have At Least One in Each
County to Stimulate Interest in
Their Home Work and Take Part
Part in Contests.

Atlanta, Ga, January 6.-Reports
from different parts of the state show
a great interest in the organization OF
boys and girls industrial clubs.
Prof. ]. P. Campbell, professor Of
school extension, located at Athens,
who was in Atlanta day or so ago,
says that already thirty clubs have
been organized in different parts OF
the state and others will be formed in
the near future.
Club work among men and women
of all classes has been found a pO-
tent factor in the development of civil
ization and is proving no less effect
i've, according to Mr. Campbell in pro.
noting agricultural and industrial ed
ucation of the youth.
The clubs are organized at each
school by the teachers and these into
a county club by the county school
commissioner, with a president, vice
president and secretary of each. 1t is
thought best to have all boys and
girls who intend to enter any contest
for prizes enroll in either the boys
corn club, or girls home life club not
later than April of each year and
indicate which contest they are to en-
ter.
Beside the practical knowledge of
Industrial problems gained by the stu
dent says Prof Campbell, teachers
end commissioners will find the club
work an effective means of securing
the cooperation of patrons and bust
ness men of the community, as they are
always ready to respond. with prizes,
and other sources of aid.
