ena Labor.

Greensburg, La, April 26-
After working for years to i'm.
prove agriculture in st. Helena
parish, agent O. G. Price did not
propose to see his efforts count
for naught just because farm

nent. In devising means to cope
with the situation, Mr.. Price was
guided by very thorough know
ledge of the manner and custom
of the colored folk, who constitute
a large part of the laboring class.
With the help Of others, he has
been successful in establishing q
"colored teachers training indus.

support to the project, the success
of which is now assured.
"Have a big church and an in.
dustrial school for the colored

Importance of Boys and Girls
Clubs.

The most important organiza-
tions in the country are the boys
and girls clubs. The hope and
advancement Of agriculture lies
in their hands and beyond this
they are to become the most i'm
portant factor in guiding the des.
TIMES of our nation. The object
of these boys and girls clubs is
to develop efficient men and wo-
men to interest them in the work
of the farm and home and the in.
dustries upon which the nation
depends.
It seems at times that too much
emphasis is placed upon the
growing Of the pig or calf or the
GINNING of fruit aud the like, but
the boy who can grow q good
calf or a girl who can can a good
jar of fruit have received training
that is greater than simply the
knowledge necessary to do these
things. A boy cannot develop a
prize winning calf without de.
veloping himself. If he is the
right kind Of a boy he will have a
larger interest when he is a man
than simply being able to raise a
good calf. He will desire the best
planned farmstead; the best
equipped farm buildings; his
field will be we'll cultivated; and
his soil will be we'll nourished.
He will have an interest in secur.
ing the best schools in his COM
munity, and will take an active
part in public affairs. The girl
will become a home builder and
with a broader and deeper sym
pathy for the things that are
worth while. Her household at.
fairs will be we'll managed and
she will also have time and a
desire to help improve the life of
her community.
If these boys and girls clubs
do not mean more than simply
raising prize animal Or canning
q jar of fruit they are failing in
their purpose. But they are more
than this. Through their efforts
will be taught that true success
is not the accumulation of large
fortune, but rather rendering a
useful service, contributing to thu
advancement of others, working
to make the world a better place
in which to live. 1t is not posi-
