4-H CLUBS SHOW

YOUTH WAYS TO

BECOME LEADERS

Ii) 4-H there is a leadership program that last year attracted a record enrollment: 206,000 boys and girls.

These young people are the citizens of tomorrow, and hundreds have already assumed leadership roles in school, church and community, observes Miss Emmie Nelson, a field representative of the National 4-H Service Committee. The next steps will lead to leadership in their chosen careers, she predicts.

At the present time nearly 140,000 junior leaders are working with volunteer adult leaders in 4-H Clubs throughout the nation.

“Leadership consists of numerous components, and is a term not easily defined," explains Miss Nelson, a former assistant state 4-H Club leader, and who in recent years has conducted leadership workshops in many states.

“Becoming a leader is largely up to you,” she observes. “You must be ready to assume responsibilities and be a selfstarter. Success in small undertakings will prepare you for larger responsibilities.”

Among the ingredients for leadership, she notes, are enthusiasm, friendliness, tact, patience and a sense of humor.
