BOYS AND GIRLS WANTED
FOR FARM HOME TRAINING
"Wanted, Boys and Girls-" Sounds
like a juvenile employment agency,
but it is really H. C. Seymour, state
club leader, expressing a desire to in
crease the scope of his hobby.
Already Mr. Seymour has "under
his wing" 10,000 Oregon farm boys
and girls. For each he is trying to
"make the best better" as the club
motto goes.
There is hardly a farm boy or girl
in Oregon who does not know him, or
at least of him. Everyone of them
who has come into contact with him
will tell you that Mr. Seymour is his
personal friend.
"Mr. Seymour has been largely re
sponsible for the enormous growth of
club work in this state," say club
leaders. "He believes boys and girls
are the best crop raised in Oregon,
and while his work is not personally
raising boys and girls, he does give
invaluable service in raiBing their
ideals and their respect for farm
life."
