tions on the completion of another year
/ of successful club work. You have
achieved something worth while for
yourselves and for the communities in
which you live and for the county as a
whole
| am writing this letter, not only to
tell you that we are proud of the splendid
work you have already done, but to pay
! you the compliment of holding up still
higher mark for you to aim at this COM
! ing year.
About 200 boys and girls were enrolled
I In club work in Waldo county this year.
II club work has been a good thing for
2O0 boys and girls, why wouldn't it be a
not make the "best better" by doubling
your membership this coming year2
feel sure you will accept the chal-
lenge and therefore take the liberty Of
offering three suggestions which may be
of assistance:
First: The county contest is the crown
ing club event of the year. 1t marks
The close of the years work. Make it
also the opening rally for next years
work, the biggest and most successful
year in club work Waldo county has ever
seen.
Second Enroll early Why not en-
roll now, before you leave the contest,
or pledge yourself to enroll on or before
Jan. list.
| Third: Each member act as a recruit
ing officer for the club and secure at least
one new member for 1922
Do these things and you will double
your membership for 1922 Think what
that will mean to you and to those 200
other boys and girls in Waldo county
who have not had the advantages, the
profits and pleasures of club work which
you have had; and think also of the in
centive this work will offer to the boys
and girls of other counties to do better
work and to increase their club member
ship.
Make the best better. Double your
membership. This is the challenge the
high mark for you to aim at, the goal
for 1922 Will you accept it2
In closing, per NIT me to express the
hope that this will prove to be the best,
the most helpful and the most inspiring
club contest ever held in Waldo county.
With the assurance of an ever increas-
ing interest and confidence in club work
and determination on the part of the
Extension Service to aid you in achiev-
ing your membership goal for 1922, am
Sincerely and cordially yours,
LEON S. MERRILL,
Director, Extension Service.
