Chats With Your Home Agent 4-H Youth Meet Challenge Unknown in Grandad's Day By ESTHER KIRMIS Great-grandfather's commun ity was limited to the few square miles he could cover with horse and wagon. Roads were improv ed in grandfather's time, stretch ing his community to nearby counties. Automobiles and air planes broadened father's com munity to the entire state and then the nation. Today the whole world is our community. Our new horizons challenge us with new dimen sions of citizenship responsibil ity. As we are brought closer to other people over the world, one of our most pressing prob lems is better international un derstanding and world peace. Four-H club members have a unique opportunity to help meet this challenge. Our growing fam ily of 4-H type programs now includes 5,000,000 members in some 70 countries. By studying and working with our 4-H friends in other lands we may contribute to the growth and suc cess of their programs, and work with them toward mutual under standing and peace among men. Here are some ideas for Four-H clubs to try to promote Inter national activities: ESTHER KIRMIS Get Acquainted with 4-H type programs in other lands (Make a scrapbook oi 4-H ma terials from other countries) Country Study (Select a coun- SPRING Is Just Around The Corner!

International Exchanges (In crease the effectiveness of the International Faim Youth Ex change (IFYE) program by serv ing as a host family. Help pro vide financial support). Sister Clubs and Pen Pals (Arrange for a Sister Club or Pen Pal through your 4-H lead ers, IFYE's, Peace Corps volun teers, Americans living abroad, etc.) Hospitality (Serve as a host-for-a-day or for a week-end to foreign visitors attending our American Colleges). International Service Projects (Support the 4-H CARE project, the Heifer project, UNICEF and other worth-while projects.) The "Heart-H" of the 4-H in troduces club members to new horizons in citizenship. Yet it is with the "Head" and the "Hands" that we show our concern for others. Four-H type programs around the world provide hope for a better life in the years ahead. Let us encourage and cnnnnrt thpsp 4-H movements over the world and with their members build understanding for a better world for all.
