Dear Sir: I have the honor of submitting to you herewith the report 

 for the Dfipartment of Boys and Girls' Club Work for the fiscal year end- 

 ing June 30, 1920. 



ORGANIZATION. 



The progress in organization has been through the channels already 

 in operation in this department. The administration of this organiza- 

 tion has been in the hands of state, county and local club leaders, to- 

 gether with the advisory boards of the several local clubs. Emphasis 

 has been placed upon the formation or organization of local clubs 

 through which the agricultural, educational and social program of the 

 Division of Extension might be carried on. 



The policy of increasing the number of full time, twelve months, coun- 

 ty club leaders, has been adoj)ted. These year around club leaders are 

 placed in the several counties through the cooperation of the county 

 farm bureaus. The program of work of the county club leaders is such 

 as to harmonize with the program of work of the farm bureau in that 

 county. 



Cooperating in the promotion of this organization are the many de- 

 partments of the Division of Extension together with many outside 

 groups. Among the last named might be mentioned : The Michigan 

 Crop Improvement Association, The State Bankers' Association, The 

 Michigan Potato Growers' Association, The Michigan State Fair, The 

 Department of Public Instruction, The Michigan State Federation of 

 Women's Clubs, Boards of Supervisors in the several counties, Boards 

 of Education in the several counties. Upper Peninsula Development 

 Bureau, The Michigan State Teachers' Association, together with a 

 large number of commercial concerns.
