Colorful Window Display Depicts
Work Of Local 4-H Club Members
A colorful exhibit depicting
the many project accomplished
by local boys and girls in the
4-H Club organization is on
display in the window at 22
Hast Main St., as a feature of
National 4-H Week, September
24 to October 1.
Included are examples of
sewing, cooking, raising flow­ers
and vegetables, child care,
raising animals, a miniature
farm, and other projects, all in
artistic and colorful arrange­ments.
The exhibit, which re­presents
the work of all types
of 4-H clubs in this area, was
arranged by the 4-H “What’s
Cooking” club, of which Mrs.
Willis Bucher is leader. The
girls who took part in the pro­ject
were Reba Shelly, Ann
Bomberger, Sharon Kreider,
Barbara Stephan, Robin Beck­er,
Eva Murry, Joanne Spahr,
Joyanne Cropf, Denise Jurell
and Carol Murry.
The aims of 4-H week are
to encourage boys and girls
ages nine to 19 to join the
4-H Clubs; influence capable
men and women to become
volunteer leaders, recognize
substantial contributions of the
parents to the 4-H program
and solicit their continued co­operation;
and to acquaint the
public with the changing and
expanding educational program
which fits the needs of all
modern youth.
Statistics reveal that there
are 1640 boys and girls enroll­ed
in the County 4-H program
who are instructed by 247
adult and 60 junior leaders. A
total of 1839 projects have
been completed by these
youngsters.
The 4-H organization is part
of the national education sys­tem

Free Toll Calls
Start Oct. 16
Free telephone toll call to
Lancaster and other communi­ties
will go into effect on
October 16, although the. rates
of subscribers of the Denver
and Ephrata Telephone Com­pany
will be raised on a scale
increase, from about 25 cents
up. However, for Lancaster ub-scribers
of the Bell Telephone
Company, there will be no in­crease
for calling five county
areas. One of these is Lititz,
and the others are Mount Joy,
New Holland, Quarryville and
Rawlinsville.
Feeling is mixed in Lititz
about the new service. Some
people, who call Lancaster a
lot, are happy about the
change, while others, who
hardly ever call Lancaster, are
miffed about it because their
rates will go up.
State Land Grant Universities
and counties share. Profession­al
extension agents aided by
local advisory committees and
resources of Penn State Uni­versity,
conduct programs upon
local need. Youth from families
of all economic backgrounds
and from all races and creeds
are welcome in 4-H.

To Give To United Fund
For the second consecutive
year the Farmer’s National
Bank of Lititz became the
first bank in Lancaster City
and County to complete solici­tation
in this year’s Lancaster
County United Campaign.
In reporting the final results
to United Campaign headquar­ters,
Jack S. Watson, vice pres­ident
of the Farmer’s National
Bank, expressed his apprecia­tion
for the employee’s co­operation.
Asked why he thinks the to­tal
firm and employee giving
had increased 14.8 per cent
over last year, Watson attrib­uted
it to several factors.
“Most of the employees had
an opportunity to see this
year’s campaign film ‘For Sale’
which explained ‘Fair Share’
giving in detail while show­ing
the increased need for
services in rather affluent
times. Also, more employees
are making their contributions
