offered by the Delaware College Extension
Service for Organizing boys and girls

possible, according TO their stage of
development in extension work
Before the club is organized, local
community advisory committee of the
Farm Bureau, or an interested citizen or
two,a former local club leader, teacher or
experienced club member, should meet
in conference. From this conference the
following steps may be developed:
0) In cooperation with the County
Farm Bureau a local leader should tenta-
lively be secured for each proposed club
group, such M for pig, corn, canning, etc,
for other home projects that fit into the
economic and social program of work IN
the community
(2) A public meeting should he held
for explaining the aims, purposes, re-
olliremeuts aud benefits of club work to
the community. The Farm Bureau agents
or state club leader may be able TO assist
in this program
81 Enrolment cards should he signed
by club members with the approval Of
their parents Cards can he secured from
the County Farm Bureau office, or from
the state club office at Delaware College
Newark
"a \ definite time and place should
bc 1T for the club organization meeting.
The local leader or teacher, and ifC
possible the county club agent, should
meet with the new club members, az tn
time and place previously agreed upon,
and carry out the Organization plans.
