skilful. The health to resist diseases,
to make for efficiency and to enjoy
life.
These boys and girls all have pro
jects carried on under their local com
munity club leader and the county
agent. The work consists of the fol
lowing projects:
Cotton, corn, bees, poultry, toma
toes, pig, peanut, sweet and Irish po
tatoes, home orchard, etc.
There are about 140 boys and girls
who are members of the club work.
They all keep a record of their pro
jects and turn their record books over
to Hie county agent at the end of the
year.
A few record books are being com
pleted and turned into the office now.
In reading over some of the records,
I have decided to copy two stories
written by a boy and a girl club mem-
esteemed and worthy citizens. Mr,
Craig was 72 years of age and un
married. He was a large land owner
and farmer, and waa considered one
of the most successful business men
of the county.
Mr. Craig was a resident of Clinton
for number of years and headed the
First National Bank as president when
it was organized in 1906. He resigned
several years ago and returned to
his farm, the old Craig home. He con
tinued as one of the directors of the
hank and held the office of one of its
vice-presidents. He eras also vice-
president of two banks in Laurens, the
Palmeto bank and the Peoples’
National bank, and was identified
with various other industries in the'
county. • He was a member Of the
Bethany Presbyterian church, a man
of Chrirtian character and influence.
Mr. Craig is survived by two bro-
ber, just as they are in the record! thers, Niles C. Craig of Greenwood

that I am using their stories.
I feel that there is something worth
while to be learned from the determi
nation shown by these clubsters. The
stories are as follows, on home ojr-.
chard and muskmelon projects:
“My Fruit Crop; Mr. Cannon came
to Prospect school in January and
asked all to jo ; n the club. Twenty-one
boys and girls joined the club.
“My club work was to can and dry
fruit. I dried a bushel of peaches and
a peck of apples. I canned some ap
ples, peaches, cherries, plums, pump
kins, peppers and other fruits. 1 pre
served, canned and pickled some pears.
I canned and made jam out of black
berries. 1 canned and dried some
peaches. I canned 15 cans of peaches
and dried one bushel of peaches, can
ned 6 cans of apples.
“Not long ago I canned and pre
served some pumpkins. My crop was
a medium crop. All the fruit 1 dried,
canned, pickled, preserved, and made
jam. I did the work myself. I would
help Mama dry her fruit and can What
I got Mama said that 1 had to do my
self so mv crop was done hy my&elf.
“Miss Laura Bryson is my club
trader and she is a very good leader.
She has started us to make an out
line stitch, which makes a very nice
thing out of anything that is not neat
or pretty. She has offered us a prize.
“Mr. Cannon, I am sure f is the best
club agent in S. C. He sent the boys
to Clemson free, and gave the girls a
very nice picnic.
“Miss Laura Bryson went to Win-
throp and has begun to teach us what
she learned. We did not go and I
know’ that we missed a lot in the
spring. Not a boy went to Clemson.
They missed a lot too.
“I am going to Winthrop next time
if I can. I mean to help in club work
all I can.’’
The other story is as follows:
“How I Raised My Melons: Daddy
would not give me land that was
cleared up, so I went to work cutting
dow’n trees and dragging them.out.
When I did that I burned it off. Then
I broke it up twice and harrowed it
off. I laid off my rows and hauled
five one-horse ‘loads of manure, put
ting some in the drill; then I ridged
:t up. Then I put some manure in the
hills and dug them up good. Next
Saturady I went to town and got my
seed.
“Then next week I planted some and
later on I finished them. I did not
get much rain so when they did come
up I plowed, hoed.and thinned out
what was up and replanted them.
“I had q better stand this time so
I plowed them and worked them. Fi
nally I had some blooms. It was not
long until I had some little melons.
I did not make many, but I kept ac
count of everything I did. So I plant
ed some corn in the middies, because
1 did not make many mu=kmelons.
I plowed the middles and Pcddy gave
me seme vom seed.
“I Worked it hard but did not make
much corn. I gave Daddy what corn
I did make for the rent and cost of
corn seed. I gathered and sold some
of my melons. I got five cents (5c)
each for nearly all 1 sold. We ate
some too. I cleared about five dollars
($5.00) and I expect to join the club
next year and try to keep my record
better for I had such a good time at
Ciemson that I want to finish school
there.
“I did not plant a winter cover crop,
because I am not going to work it any
more.
“I want to take myprofit and buy
me some school clothes.’’ * _ ,
