She took first place in the National Grange sponsored Highway Es- saj Contest from among-contest ants from all parts of the coun try. young Miss Potter, besides a 950 U. S. Savings Bond, will get an all-expense trip to Cali fornia next month to attend the 83rd Annual Sessions, for herself and one parent. We hope you are paying atten tion, because these handsome awards (we had a state winner last week * in the Conservation Essay Contest) are being picked off right under the eyes of many v’h o / have not thought them worthwhile. We hope that tmire of our boys and girls will train their sights bn next year’s con tests, by which Grange is not only providing a worthy service, bui rewarding winners io a sub stantial manner. JOBS as Farm Placement Re presentative are up for competi tive exams, according to a civil service announcement, and we thought some young men with a farm backkground might be in terested. The work requires some experience as a practical farmer and contact with farm organ izations. Duties are mainly to help place farm labor, under su pervision, in designated areas. Starting salary is attractive, with annual increases up to f(ye years. Write the N. Y. S. Depart ment of Civil Service at Albany for details. You will have to act quickly, since applications must fie filed by November 4th. FUTURE FARMERS of America came in for a well-deserved word of praise in a recent radio address by National Grange Mas ter Albert .S. Goss. In pointing out. that the Grange has devoted some of its best efforts to pro moting vocational agriculture and supporting FFA, Mr. Goss said that “probably no other calling requires more self-reli ance, more ingenuity, more energy and more of those qual ities .that build character, than farming, if one is to make a suc cess of it. Boys who are able to take agricultural courses an.d get FFA training are fortunate in- 'deed, and it would be a great thing for America if their num ber could be doubled. One of the finest things about FFA is that it trains young men in leader ship and the field of cooperation, so that they are better equipped to take a place in their commun ity life and their farm organiza tions. These are Some of the fin- i est rewards of rural living”.
