STRIVE FOR GREATER TEXAS
Boys and GIris' Ctubs Formed for Pur.
pose Of Interesting Youths In
Agricultural Work.

(By H. FL. WILLIAMS, Assistant State
Agent in Charge Of Club Work.
The purpose of the boys and girls
club, work Of Texas, which embraces
what is sometimes known locally as
boys corn, cotton, milo and girls can
ming clubs, ETC., Is to interest and as
sist boys and girls In the study OF
live stock raising, agriculture. home
economics, etc, and thus beneflt them
In their preparation for life's work.
The work 10 strictly educational, and
the purpose Of an educational work
should be to teach the boys and girls
to be home builders No nation has
ever achieved permanent greatness an
less its greatness was based upon the
substantial citizen. Club work among
men and women OF all classes has
been a potential factor in the develop
ment of civilization and Ia proving no
less effective in promoting the agricul-
tural and intellectual education Of the
youth. The short history Of club work
in this state r. suffcient demonstra-
ton to show what can be accom-
plished IN Increasing the productive
ness OF Texas One Of the purposes
Is to teach the boys ana girls to pro-
duce a greater crop at less expense,
and at the same time maintain or in
crease the fertility of the soil.
This work Of our Texas youths has
beneficial influence on the social life
Of the farm. The great men and
women Of our nation are constantly
discussing why boys and girls leave
the farm and are agitating thsr back
to the farm movement. 1t is the con-
sensas OF, opinion that there will be
continued preference OF farm boys
and girls for the city until rural eau-
cation and social life on the farm are
revolutienized. How may this be &C
cOmpiished. There are many methods
by which great results can be attained
to this end. Perhaps the greatest re-
suits can be accomplished through the
cooperative work OF the boyG and
girls. The boys and girls club work
teaches the fundamental principles of
better farming by bringing them I'm
direct contact with the process Of pro-
ductiOR. The watch word is learn to
do by doing. OF no less Importance
is the fact that It gives them inspIra-
ton and love for the soil and farm
life and tends to dignity labor by the
demonstration That there is honor as
we'll as profit in properly applied
labor.

NEW YORK WORLD
Practically Daily at the Price of a
Weekly,
No other Newspaper in the world gives
80 much at so low price.

This is time of great events and you
will want the news accurately and
promptly. The Democrats, for the
first time in sixteen years, will have the
Presidency and they will also control
both branches of Congress. The politi-
cal news is sure to be of the most alb
sOrbing interest.
There is great war in the Old World,
and you may read of the extinction of
the vast Turkish Empire in Europe, just
as a few years ago you read how Spain
lost her last foot of soil in America, after
having ruled the empire of half the
New World.
The World long since established
record for impartiality, and any body can
afford its Thrice-a-W Week edition, which
comes every other day in the week, ex-
cept Sunday. 1t will be of particular
value to you now. The Thrice Week

One of the most remarkable money
campaigns ever conducted in the United
States was the two weeks search for
81, 900, 000 in New York, with which to
erect buildings for the Y. M. C. A. and
the Y, w. c. A. throughout the metro
poitan district. Such task would
seem impossible of accomplishment
probably in every other city of the
country, even those which have had the
reputation of being more open-hearted
and less calloused to the cries of need
than New York has been; and for a
time it seemed impossible of accom-
phshment in that great center of
wealth. However, the energy which
the sponsors for the movement put into
their work was so appealing and the
purchases for which the money was be-
ing raised so meritorious that the sym
pathies of wealthy people were stirred
as were the sympathies of the persons
able to give not more than a dollar;
and, with the allowance of an extra day
for campaigning, the desired amount
was subscribed and considerably over.
No other city in the country has ever
tried to raise so much money for Y. M.
C. A. and Y. w. c. A. work, and so the
efforts stands out as tremendous and
record-breaking success. But aside
from the qualification over the accom-
plishment of task to which one has de-
terminedly set oneself, there is the far
greater pleasure over the anticipation
of what the four million of dollars will
do toward assisting in the upbuilding of
the city by furnishing centers for the
moral and physical development of the
young men and young women of the
city. That benefit can scarcely be meas
ured in dollars and cents; it is expected
to be incalculable. The four millions of
dollars will bear fruit in a better
equipped people, and therein New York
is very fortunate. Barre Times.
