LYKE8 8. HENDERSON, 4c-ArlA Hobby Competitions Hobby competitions are excel lent for keeping groups of young sters busy during the summer months. My town’s Youth Recre ation Board put me in charge of a hobby competition project last year and I don’t think I’ve ever had so much fun. I assigned various arts and crafts hob by kits to a number of the K youngsters. One of the girls put together a mosaic table top. Another made leather wal lets and purses with material that had come in kits which she obtained from one of the local stores. OneNlittle boy told me he wanted to be e lepidopterist. He explained that a lepidopterist is someone who studies butterflies. Getting him started on a hobby was easy enough. I obtained a kit for him which contains butterfly specimens and equipment for papturing and preserving more of these creatures. The boy spent Most of hio summer out in the woods, and by the time school began again he had an enormous ooueetkm mounted and ready to present to his science teacher. Some of the older boys built Model airplanes powerod by rain- tetare gasoline engtaos. Tbost pianos art controlled by guide 2: who eould do the most “atunt fly. taf".
