These groups make up the New berry County 4-H Council. Serving as officers of the Coun ty 4-H Council last year were the following: Carolyn Crooks of Po maria, President; Larry Connelly, of Prosperity, Vice-President; Paul Richardson of Pomaria, Secretary and Mary Dove Boozer of Pros perity, Treasurer. The council’s outstanding ac complishment was the raising of the $1000 Camp Improvement quota. This was done by the boys and girls themselves, cooperating together and with other organiza tions such as the Chamber of Commerce, Post Office, The Jer sey Cattle Assoc, and the County Council of Farm Women. In cooperation with the Cham ber of Commerce, the Post Office and rural carriers the boys and girls conducted a mailbox improve ment campaign. Three hundred seventy-five name plates were sold in the couhty. While sell ing and delivering these, members encouraged those buying to erect boxes according to the require ments of the post offices—forty- Jwo inches from the ground and on the right hand side of the road. They also, encouraged folks to make these boxes a place of beauty rather than having them an eye sore to the community. Around 25 bought new boxes and 50 erected old boxes according to requirements and also painted them. Cooperating with the Newberry County Council of Farm Women and local business concerns they compiled a Birthday Calendar which proved both exciting and helpful. This campaign has meant much to the boys and girls because it has taught them much.
