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:

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.

Hard Work
Rewards
4-H Members
There is no substitute for
hard work.
But four Oregon youths
can tell you that hard work
brings rewards. All four
deserving 4-H Club mem
bers earned special honors
in 1962.
Kay Elliott, 16, of Dallas,
earned top spot in the bread
demonstration program spon
sored by Standard Brands In
corporated. Her "Conversational
Pieces with Sweet Dough" told
how to make Old Vienna Holi
day Whirl and Date Braided
Cake. She was a delegate to the
National 4-H Club Congress in
Chicago.
Miss Elliott is the daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Elliott
who operate a 650-acre Polk
County farm. The young 4-H'er
has been a club member seven
years and has served as secre
tary of her county council.
Susan Hochspeier, 17, of Jef
ferson, won a $50 U.S. savings
bond for her bread demonstra
tion program. It was called the
"Twist." She told how to make
sweet bread dough into a twist.
She is the daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Henry Hochspeier and has
been a 4-H'er for eight years.
James Hansen, 17, of Dallas,
took top position in the state
poultry program sponsored by
Heisdorf & Nelson Farms, Inc.
He was a delegate to the
National 4-H Club Congress in
Chicago.
Hansen has devoted six of his

Hansen
eight years in 4-H work to the
poultry project, It has earned
for him six state championships
and four state reserve cham
pionships in addition to 31 blue
ribbons. He is the son of Mr.
and Mrs. N. John Hansen, Polk
County farm owners.
Kenneth Beck, 20, of New
port, was cited as Oregon 4-H
achievement winner. Everything
he did in his 10 years of club
membership counted in the pro
gram sponsored by the Ford
Motor Company Fund. Beck was
awarded a certificate of merit.
His ability to apply 4-H Club
principles to his family and
community life brought him
honors. Beck is the son of Mr.
and Mrs. Gordon W. Beck and
is a sophomore at Oregon State
University.
The 4-H Club award programs
are backed by the donations of
more than half a hundred
United States business enter
prises and foundations. They
have consistently supported the
4-H Club program, several of
them for 40 years or more.
