Sixteen year old Jenny Lucas amazed her brother by lighting a campfire with only one match. Thirteen year old Randy Scott amazed himself by speaking for ten minutes in front of the whole school. Serventeen year old Susan Kowalski im- pressed her friends with photographs of her trip to Western Canada. And twenty year old -Guy Bouchard whipped up some terrific taZros for a group of friends. Ontario 4-11 members and leaders see miracles like these every day. In facts they've been a common occurrence in 4-H for 75 years, 4-H'ers have a wealth of opportunities available to them. Many have been reci- pients of scholarships, trip exchanges from across Canada, the United States and to the United Kingdom. National con- ferences, camps and workshops give members the chance to make friends and continually "learn by doing". Federal Minister of Agriculture, John Wise has declared November 16 to 22 as National 4-H Week, bringing to public at- tention the extensive and exceptional work of the 4-11 program across Canada today. It has been 75 years since the first 4-H members gathered together to begin, what has been for over three million young rural men and women, an enriching and educa- tional experience. During this week, two national pro- grams co-ordinated by the Canadian 4-H Council will take place in Tororito. The of- ficial 75th, Annib°ersary of 4-H in Canada will be lanched at this time. From the establishment of the first club in Roland, Manitoba in 1913, 441 has become an important stepping stone in the personal development of young rural Canadians in every province acros the country. 441 members are measured by a high standard of excellence applied to the lear- ning process and encompassing citizen- ship, leadership, community involvement and initiative. The continuing participa- tion of thousands of youth in 4-H is one in- dication of the success of the program. Yet the benefits of 4-H extend well beyond the personal fulfillment experienced. 4-H youth make substantial contributions to the economy and to society. Each year, 4-H members carry out thousands ® life - skill related projects while the strong em- phisis 441 places on good citizenship directly benefits their communities. 4-11 stands as a prime example of cooperative planning and mutual support from private and public sources. More than 14,000 volunteer leaders lead 4-H pro- grams and help members develop and complete their projects. From farms, cor- porate suites, banks, schools and factories come the volunteer leaders who are the backbone of 4-11. Many have been involved in 4-H since their youth. For many, 4-H is a family tradition and a way of life. 4-11 is anchored firmly in the principles of human worth and individual ac- complishment. These ideals enhance and advance our society's basic values of establishing strong democratic institu- tions, ecouraging private enterprise and improving social opportunities. 4-H has been and remains one of this country's great success stories, forging the best of partnerships between the public and private sectors to stimulate and fulfill the potential of youth. With decades of experience, 4-H is now primed to meet the needs .of new genera- tions who will lead Canada into its future, as it celebrates 75 years of living the motto "learn to do by doing". This- week, 4we salute the -leaders, members . and organizors of the local and regional 4-141 programs.
