The following call to activity has

name on that list If you wish to keep
In the game. hope you will stick
with us. If you do, l feel that we
can be very helpful to each other.
1T may have occurred to you that
the only interest l have in you is that
connected with the growing of your
acre of corn. This, however, is not
true. | am interested in seeing every
corn club boy grow up to be strong.
intelligent and honest. Working with
your acre Of corn will help you TO
grow strong and intelligent; it will
help you TO become useful And as
you grow older you will begin to ap-
preciate the fact that an education is
the most useful thing a young man
can have, and when you feel that
way your acre can help you and
can help you. I am helping boys
ev0rr year and will help you Just
believe that you can get an education,
and as q matter of fact, you can. If
you nave money you can. If you havi
no money, still you can. Learn to be-
lieve in yourself. l believe in you.
eve corn club people stand for
good farming; if we are to make other
people believe we do we must begin
early, prepare our soil well, get good
seed and then cultivate properly. We
should have planted some winter crop
last fall; but, in case that was not
done, we should get everything ready
as early as possible. This must be
our best year. If you happen to five
near one of the boys who planted
, crimson clover last fall, watch his
acre and see what happens.
Enclosed is a postal card, which
wish you would fill out and return
just as soon as you get it. Don't keep
it single day Those boys who get
started early will have the advantage,
and I hope you will be one of the
first to send in the enrolment card.
When we get this card we will know
by that that you mean business and
that you are not "quitter."
