Bay Twp. Leader
Tells Of Al Work

This week we asked Mrs. Agnes
Brough of Bay Township to tell us
what All has done for her. She has
been an advisor of the Bay Town
ship jolly Stitchers for 6 years. In
this time she has taught many
girls and each girl has achieved
very good products in their pro-
jects. Many county winners have
come from her club and the girls
are very proud of and grateful to
Mrs. Brough for her good leader
ship.
"Why am l interested in All?
My interest started about twenty
five years ago when Rosalyn
Wright (Tewers) and I won a free
three-days trip to the Ohio State
Fair and were housed at the dor
mitory at Ohio State University.
In depression days this was a
great honor and reward for a few
weeks work and lot of fun in All.
To-day there are so many pro-
jects and contests available in All
that everyone has an opportunity
to gain recognition. There is a
reason to complete what you start.
Completion of anything started is
one step to success in whatever
you attempt all through life.
I'm All you learn to have fun
while you work. That always
makes any work more enjoyable
Perhaps that is why l enjoy being
an advisor. Being an advisor is a
lot of work but it is fun and it is
so gratifying to see members of
your club achieve success.
"To me All offers an opportu-
nifty to every boy and girl to do
something they like. 1t gives them
a chance to be a member of one
big happy family. This could be a
step in making the world one big
happy family Wouldn't you like to
be a member?"

ways felt a little wafy about small
stones since an incident with girl
Scout troop once. The kids were
each to bring an article, which the
rest was to identify by using the
five senses. Everything was easy
except one youngsters offering, a
bottle with some stones in it. They
were stumped, SO the leader tried
to identify the objects. Sight
proved useless, smell produced no
results; touching 'em didn't solve
the mystery; neither did hearing
help out. She was just ready to
put them in her mouth to try a
taste, test when the Scout who
brought 'em let out a shrek:
Don't! They're my grandmoth-

'fMix one half cup cream corn
starch and one fourth cup of salt
with just enough warm water to
make a stiff dough or clay. Add
few drops of poster paints, water
colors, food coloring or household
blueing for desired colors. A cou-
pie drops of cologne give nice
odor. Ashtrays, etc., may be fired
by baking in a slow oven for two
hours. Wrap unused clay in a
damp cloth"
