Home demonstration work is threefold in its activities. The channels through which it works are the girl's anning club, the girl's bread club, ind the woman's hom^ emonstration lub. The girl's canning club, or the tomato canning club as it was formerly called, is the oldest of the hrep organizations and was first ?-s . Ill ablished in 1910 in Aiken county, jy Mis- .Marie Cromer. This was lu he first organization in the United ^ States, the only other state being Virginia. j From that time the work ha? crown and grown until it has reached ts present wonderful stage of devel pment with a wide and far-reachinsr nfluence. The 4-H brand which Is found on ill labels for cans put up in this .vork. has become famous all over e country and is wrf-atly in decianJ lot only in the south, but in the large lorthern markets. This label is in .v tself a guarantee of the highest qualtv of fruit found in the can. The symbol 4-II stands for equal raining of the heart, the head, the ands. and the heajth. The heart is rained to be true, to be kind, and to >e sympathetic. The head is trained ,o think, to plan, to reason. The lands are trained to be helpful, to jo skillful, and to be useful. Thru jood health, the girls are taught to ,]| esist disease, to enjoy life, and to nake for efficiency. A four year's course is arranged in f?t his work at the end of which the fir] receives a diploma signed by Mr. Bradford Knapp, by I)r. D. B. John- (1 on. by the state agent and her assisants. and by the county agent. This at iiploma entitles the gitl to a cer- ,n a in number of credits in the enranee requirements of Winthrop 'ollege or any other normal and inlustrlal college in America. Over 5,000 girls were enrolled in his work in South Carolina least rear. This year the number has :reatly increased since 1 counties ,l lave now taken up the work. There i.. ire 116 girls in I/ancaster county enoiled in the canning club. The purpose of the bread club to tain the future home-makers of tli? ountry, the establishment of an ideal! lorae for every family, is the goalj oward which the demonstration i cork is striving. It is through the! :irls that the first steps are made.j Hie making of bread is not the only hing ths' is taught, but alj sorts of ookery, foods and food values, and I he balanced ration. To place the object of food on a practical; scion ific and economical basis helps to it err health, prosperity and happlle-'s to the home.
