X. WI. Helm Activities
The following will be a brief ac-
count as to what our r. w. Helm
Chapter activities are during a
school year and the summer months.
We have included in this write-up
facts of the following: Our elections,
4 limitations, projects, program of
work, soccer and basketball teams,
parties (Hallowe'en, New Years and
evening of games), entertaining
other chapters, music groups, horse
shoe pitching teams, regular meet
ings, Community Fair, and a lot of
miscellaneous happenings.
The r. w. Helm Chapter of FII-
ture Farmers Of America have been
quite active this year. We believe
our successful program this year is
due in part to the fact that our
group is ready to work when they
enter school in the fall. Our cleo
tions are in April, and we feel this
has many advantages.
We initiated six boys who are
promising good agriculture students.
They have taken active part with
the activities to put our program
across so far this year.
The projects with few exceptions
were completed in fine style, and the
greatest worth. we feel, was not
gained in dollars and cents. Our
records and summary are self-evi-
dent of worthy projects. Our chap
ter made a program of work this
year which was a load. We are
striving to fulfill it. Among our
work we decided on a soccer team.
a basketball team, parties, etc.
Some of our program we will be un-
able to fill, and we will do other
things that were not planned.
Our soccer team played two games
and lost one. Our basketball team
is just in the raw but is promising.
The Halloween party was a huge
success, with about so present, all
those enjoying fine entertainment,
games and refreshments. Our next
party is at one of the boys homes,
and it is to be New Years party.
Our boys wish to become better ac-
quainted with the boys in other
chapters. To do this we have enter
tanned and been entertained by the
chapter in Harrington. Our next big
event of this nature is our trip to
the chapter at Lewes on Tuesday,
December Is. Here we anticipate
games. such as ffuoits, basketball. !
and the like. At Harrington We
played soccer, were entertained for
dinner and also for the Community
Fair program in the evening. At our
Community Fair we returned the ia
vor to the Harrington boys.
In our chapter we have little
musical talent. Two of our boys.
Donald Clendaniel and Ray Dodd,
have organized the Musical Jag,
gars," a group of five boys, playing
harmonicas and guitars. We also
have what we call an F. +. A. or
consisting of two trumpets,
piano, three violins. clarinet, and
trap drums.-This orchestra furnish
ed music at the Community Fair.
At the next State Convention,
which will be held April 1, at Milton,
we have challenged the State chap
iers to horseshoe pitching contests.
We believe we have the winners for
such contests. Each day some sort
are run off, and by
April our best will be hard to beat.
In our meetings we try to carry
)ut certain regulations. We always :
