All the lesson mat', orig is being altered in an fort to make instruction easier and also to make the meetings more interesting, pullen said it was hoped the new lessons would be available for this year. He said the new approach would promote question and answer type discusaion at meetings and he said he hoped it would cut down on the amount of preparation time required on behalf of the leaders. In an effort to update their .instruction methods, the leaders voted to have a leaders' school near the end of March. Methods of 0444 on information to club members will be detailed at that time. RECEIVE PRAISE Members of the 4-H Club Lead- ers' Association were highly praised at the meeting by mem- bers of the department of agri- culture extension branch at Clin- ton. "You receive poor pay in terms of money," Pullen stated, "but added it must be gratifying for the leaders to realize they are helping turn these young people into good citizens and helping them learn more about agri- culture. Agriculture representative Doug Miles urged the leaders to stress the importance of positive thinking among the young people. He said more people would be better off if they spent their time in thinking positively rather than in negative-type thinking and complaining. He said in any successful oper- ation, "attitude is a pretty im- portant factor". Miles noted that an attempt to start a feeder calf club in Blyth had failed because enough young people couldn't be found who were willing to keep the required re- cords for the project. He said records were import- ant so farmers could tell where they've been and where they were going, and asked the leaders to do everything they could to im- press upon young farmers the need for keeping records. "The individual will need even more records in the future," he predicted. At the meeting, Miles handed out plaques to each leader signi- fying that he had been a 4-H club leader during centennial year. Prior to lunch, the leaders Bean board re-elect Allan Robert Allan, of Brucefield, has been re-elected chairman of the Ontario Bean Producers' Marketing Board.

McDonald; Mid- dlesex - Thys Bruinsma; Perth - Oliver McIntosh; Elgin - Lloyd Taylor; Lambton - Roy Downie. The board estimates this year's white bean crop will yield about 875,000 bags (100 pounds each). At Dec. 31, about 623,000 bags had been sold by producers to dealers leaving about 252,000 bags in storage. "About 250,000 bags were ex- ported during the fall shipping period so there Would not ap- pear to be an oversupply of beans, especially if there are a few exports when the seaway opens," the board said.
