Business Address Good Record of Polk Industrial Clubs Fourteen of the 37 students at tending the Oregon Agricultural college from Polk county were achievement members of boys' and girls' clubs,!and according to Itheir own.statement, first became inter ested in coming to college through club work. Six of the fourteen have had the privilege of attending one or more junior summer schools at the college the prize given to state winners in the different pro jects. , ; . Polk county, until the last two years, led the counties of the state in club work, both in quality of work and number of winners, ac cording to H. C. Seymour, state leader at the college. In 1914, the first year for this work in Oregon, Polk county produced four of tEe ten state winners or 40 per cent of the total number Franchelle Haw- ley, May McDonald, Lucile Keyt and Kenneth Bursell", who won re spectively in the baking, sewing, canning, and pork production pro jects. The prize was a trip with all expenses paid to the Panama- Pacific , International Exposition at' San Francisco. Two of these, Fran- celle Hawley and May McDonald are now students at the college. Eight of the 20 who'attended the first Junior summer school at O.A.C. in June of 1916 as a result of the 1915 club contests were from Polk county. Those who attended this summer school were, Harold Rey nolds, Hazel Bursell, Earl Cooley, May McDonald, Alfred Loy, Lindley Bayles Teddy McGowen, and Homer Bursell, the first five cf whom are now 0. A. C. students. The Mistle toe Industrial club was one of the five clubs in the state to receive the certification of achievement given to clubs finishing with 85 per cent of their original membership. Polk ciounty again came but in the lead in the 1916 contests with five of the 20 state winners to their credit. The state winnprs Harold Reynolds, Earl Cooley, Beth Os trom, Bertha Zielesch, and John Stqmp, together with one county winner and two others were her representatives at the 1917 junior summer school at the college. John Stump also won out in the stock judgment, contest at the state fair and won a number of big prizes in open competition in the men's class es. The Mistletoe club again was one of the few club3 in the state to win a certificate of achievement. In 1917 Polk county produced four of the state winners Hazel Bursell in canning, Russell Alsip in turkey raising, Raleigh Middle ton in duck raising, and Harold Reynolds in poultry raising. Two of these, Hazel Bursell and Harold Reynolds are 0. A. p. students,; In 1918 and 1919 when the county had no club leader (it has never had a full time leader) the work suffer ed a decided slump. There were no state winners during these two years although many smaller prizes were won at the state fairs. The largest and most active club" in the county is the Falls City Pig club, The 300 members who completed their work in 1919 produced pro ducts valued at something over $700. That club work is a big factor in developing leadership is shown by the things that ex-club members are doing. France'le Hawley, sen ior in home economics at the college is, vice-president of the Home Eco nomics club and active supporter of all campus activities, and a member of the Pi Beta Phi sorority. Harold Reynolds, was given full charge of the fifty or more boys who made up the stock judging teams at the Pacific International livestock exposition in Portland'last fall. This was a large responsibil ity as very few of the boys had ever been in Portland before, Hazel Bursell, sophomore in home economics, is a department editor of the Oregon Countryman, a monthly paper published by the departments of agriculture' and home economics, and the regular club correspondent to the Oreaon Teachers Monthly.
