The new officers were inducted pound with a description of their respon- sibilities to the club. The club decided to set up a dis- play in the school lobby for 4-H Week and make arrangements to visit class this month to promote 4- H and share the projects the mem- bers have completed.

Ms. Hartford looked at each photo and commented on the composition. Just got a whole lot bigger! The members thought photography was an exciting workshop. That’s right.
