Next, Barb led members out to the bush behind her farm, where they played a cou- ple of games. First was a game with a blind- folded person being led by a person not blindfolded. The blindfolded person would touch and smell four things and then iden- tify them. Members played a silent game where they had to find 10 different silent things and then write them in their books. After coming back from the bush, members made hot dogs and smores. After sampling the cooking they went inside and did their books. The meeting closed with the 4-H pledge. Press reporter for this meeting was Laura Mulder. OUTSIDERS MEET "The Outsiders" held their fifth meeting at Brueefield United Church on Tuesday, April 19. The Kippen III club has 15 members led by .
