South 40" Club
Pioneers Among
Youth Movements
Oregon is among the few states
in the Union in which the agricul
tural extension service is carrying
on definite pioneer organization work
among rural young people between
the ages of 16 and 25. F. L. Ballard,
vice-director of extension in Ore
gon, served for several years on a
national committee of the land grant
colleges which made an extensive
study of the needs of this age group.
Since that time the activities in
this field in Oregon have been as
signed to J. R. Beck, rural service
specialist in the extension service,
whose report of a survey of rural
youth conditions in this state was
the subject of previous articles in
this series.
His report showed that there are
approximately 35,000 to 40,000 un
married rural young men and wo
men in Oregon between the ages of
16 and 25. Most of these have passed
the active period of 4-H club par
ticipation and have yet to find their
place in established adult rural or-ganizatiins.
The first organized enort to meet
this situation in Oregon was started
in Union county about two years ago
bv County Agent Harry Avery. Un
der his sponsorship there was form
ed a group which adopted the name
of "The South Forty club." The
group consists of about 25 active
members between the ages of 18 and
30 years. It is restricted to boys, al
though a sort of "women's auxiliary,"
composed of girls of corresponding
ages, frequently joins the boys in
social affairs. This particular club
does not bar married young people.
Semi-monthly meetings are held,
about three consisting of discussion
programs to one of a social nature.
In the discussion meetings costs of
production, marketing, transporta
tion farm finance and various angles
of crop production have been includ
ed regularly.
Organizations having a similar
purpose but with an entirely differ
ent setup have been formed in sev
eral other counties.
Miss Ruth Harlan, daughter of the
late L. K. Harlan, founder of the
Heppner Herald, visited here Satur
day in the role of "Dentine" girl
with the American Chicle Co. She
accompanied a company salesman
and his wife.
Clinton L. Heniger was able to
leave Heppner hospital the first of
the week and return to work at the
Rhea Creek Lumber Co. mill, hav
ing been treated for injuries re
ceived some time before.
