I wonder why it is growing so ]
increasingly difficult to interest |
our children in any definite long |
term program of club work? It
was very noticeable last year in
the falling away of 4H Club work
and the impossibility of creating a
Junior Red Cross Club. We hear
continually the cry that there is
"nothing to do”. We encouraged a
skating rink and are considering
a swimming pool and play ground
and any other form of recreation
for the young people to be sug
gested. Yet, the most entertaining,
informative and profitable program
for young people ever to be of
fered, that of 4H Clubs, sponsored
by the Dept, of Agriculture Exten
sion Service, offering cash prizes
of $;30 and $100, not to mention the
all expense vacation trip to Chi
cago which is open to boys and
girls of Alaska every year, goes
begging in Seward.
It may be that mothers do not
realize the value of the 411 Club
work, that they are not aware of
the possibilities of prize winning
with a little attention to details
for their children, consequently
have not urged their ten year olds
and teen agers to look into this
interesting program.
In tne past two years, children
of Seward have been awarded
cash prizes amounting to over $500
and two town children have won
the trip to Chicago.
No one knows any better than I
how hard it is to keep school chil
dren interested in extra curricular
activities, such as music lessons
and practice, scouting and club
work, but the worthwhile prizes
aside from the benefit gained from
4H work should interest the par
ents to urge the children to par
ticipate.
Public Health Nurse Mrs. LaPreal
Die announced that the Immuni
zation Clinic for children will be
open Thursday afternoon from 2:00
to 4:00. The work of the Public
Health Nurse is particularly heavy
at this time of year because school
children must have a health exam
ination for which records must be
kept.
Do you know your house number?
