Relation to Class Work. — This club work is easily corre- 
lated with the regular class work in agriculture and domestic 
science and art, and also in language, writing, spelling, and 
arithmetic. In many places school credit is given for good 
club work and the completion of a project is sometimes even 
required for eighth grade graduation. 
Results. — Government agents in charge of this move- 
ment ‘say, ‘‘ Experience shows that the activity of the club 
members reénforces the work of the school and dignifies the 
work of the home, the farm, and the garden. Through the 
club there is cultivated community spirit, codperation, team 
work, social life, and an appreciation of neighbors so es- 
sential to the success of any community.” 
How to Begin. — If there is no Boys’ and Girls’ Club in 
your neighborhood write to your County Superintendent or 
County Agricultural Agent for information, and failing to 
receive it write to your state Agricultural College. Whenever 
five or more boys and girls between the ages of 10 and 19 
years wish to take up some lines of club work the county 
and state leaders will assist them in organizing; but any one 
not able to join a local club may fill out an enrollment blank 
and receive assistance whether he belongs to a local club: or 
not. The Extension Division of your Agricultural College 
will furnish you complete and helpful directions for the state 
projects.
