The Junior Food Project Programs aim to accomplish the ,` ’ '  
following: , . · 
1. To give girls a knowledge of wholesome foods, their pre- _ 1 . 
paration and combination, thus aiding them in selecting ‘ 
an adequate diet. T  , 
2. To teach correct table-setting and service. V  ;
3. To improve health habits.  ?
4. To promote a more varied and well-balanced diet. »  
5. To provide a more enjoyable life thru the maintenance 1 _ *  
of positive health.  
ENROLLMENT ‘ 1 T , Qi
Any girl between the ages of 10 and 18 years may enroll ig-*3
.  
for food work, by filling out a club enrollment card and return- T  
ing it to the local leader or home demonstration agent. In _  
case there is no home demonstration agent in the county, ap-  
Dlication for membership may be made to the State Club Office, 1 J  
Experiment Station, Lexington, Kentucky. N  
ORGANIZATION  
Since tl1e girls enrolled for this work constitute a project  
§El`0ll]) they are entitled to membership in a junior community  
club. Definite instructions in the organization of such a club  
Hrc given in Club Circular 117 and also in the Club Secretary ’s

  book, both of which may be obtained from the Heine Demon-
  stration Agent or from the State Club Office.
  In order to stimulate interest and develop leadership U
  among the girls carrying on a project, it is advisable for them 3
  to select a name for their project group, elect officers and plan v
  a program of work. The secretary of the project group will V
  report the progress of her group at the regular meetings of the . i]
  junior community club. A good meeting of the project group P
  consists of a snappy business session conducted by the group I
  chairman, a discussion by a club girl on some subject pertain- 1,
  ing to the project, the work of the day, an assignment for home H
 i   work and some recreation consisting of games and songs with L
 gl club girls in charge. Discussion topics should be assigned and E
  y leaders for games and songs appointed when the program is H
  made. Q

_ There should be a local leader in charge of each group of A  
hir girls in the food project. The local leader, with the assist— A  
mm ance of the Home Demonstration Agent and club specialist, , ’  
mm A will see that each girl has the instructions essential to good A'  
Nm work. The leader should be a local woman who is interested , i  
the ‘ in girls and one to whom the girls may go with their problems. , __ A ,  
wp Former club girls who have initiative make excellent leaders. A A " . A  
Dllp ln order for a club to be most successful it should have two A, _  
lm' leaders to share the responsibility of instruction, recreation j  
mw and other club activities. Arrangements can be made with the , A _  
'lth College of Agriculture for a specialist to hold a training school A A . » ·  
wld for leaders, provided at least four communities in a county — _ i , A 
1 IS are sufficiently interested to secure two leaders for each project . A  
group. Application should be made tln·u the home demonstra- · ` A  
tion agent or to the State Club office, Experiment Station, Lex- , A·  
tive ington, Kentucky.  i
l  
_ RECORDS A  
Each member is required to keep an accurate and up-to- A  
mk date record of the time spent in working and the cost of the .  { 
products. A record book is supplied each girl enrolled. At , _ -.  
the end of the food program this record book properly filled  
out, story included, is to be returned to the local leader or · ' l A  
home demonstration agent. When a complete record has been i ,  
tiled with the home demonstration agent. an achievement card  
will be awarded.

ACHIEVEMENT DAY  
legis. At the close of the work the girls will want to hold a . V  
community achievement day, the chief purpose of which is to .  
_ Show the community the results of their work. This can best A‘

of this exhibit is to be determined by the girls in consultation r  
Witli their leaders and home demonstration agent. They may

  DEMONSTRATION TEAMS
  Demonstration is one of the best educational methods em- il
  ployed in presenting information. Two or more girls working V
  together in presenting information compose a demonstration il
  team. Demonstrating creates in the team members poise, the h
  ability to think quickly, to express themselves before an audi- H
  ence, and makes for those qualities of leadership which are so e.
 it often undeveloped. In addition the team demonstration is a o
  graphic and very effective way of acquainting people with the l<
 " benefits of club work and of passing on to them a knowledge P
 ;i of home practices which have been learned and adopted by club li
  gms  
  A demonstration team is composed of girls who have sue.
  cessfully carried on a piece of club work and who have been
  i trained during their club work to demonstrate publicly some
  phase of the knowledge they have gained. A good demon- {I
  . stration presents one idea and carries this to a successful con-  
  elusion; for instance, preparation of a breakfast, cooking d
  eggs, wholesome beverages, serving a breakfast, are good sub- 1*
  ` jects for demonstration. Various types of demonstrations are i
  outlined in Team Demonstration Circulars. These, however, are _
  only suggestions and it is hoped that club girls, with the help of E
  their leaders, will organize and outline their own demonstra- I
  tions. In planning and outlining a demonstration one should
  21lv\’HyS keep in lnind that the primary aim is to show the audience
  how to perform some home practice. This practice must be pre-
  sented very elearly and simply if the hearers are to adopt it with-
  D out further instruction. Club girls must repeat a. (l€lHOllSt1`2lilU}i Y
  many times before they become skilled in presenting it publicly. ` C
  A team or individual demonstration can be used profitably asa
  part of each project meeting. These demonstrations should he Q
  very simple and present only one idea. Participation in a team 1
  demonstration makes the work more educational and vitally ih- {
  izeresting to the club girl. `

It is well to have all foods prepared scored by the girls V _  
(im` in their group meetings. This knowledge of scoring is very V I T V  
king valuable and later forms the basis of selecting girls to compete . VT `  
men in judging contests. This can best be done by the leader or T  
.’fh€ home demonstration agent explaining to the club girls the 4 A  
iudi- ‘ meaning of the various points in the score card, and taking up . V _ . _ T    
re so each point to be sure it is thoroly understood. One good way a V T v V  
is 3 of knowing that the girls understand the score card is for the V . V  
h the leader to give the group a demonstration in scoring some I  
edge product. After this demonstration the girls will want to take o V ( · V . I  
Club part in scoring which can be made a very interesting and in- V · `V  
structive game by organizing the group into judging teams. · . V ,

Some Training in judging can well be a part of any club pro-

con- group of articles is best and why it is best. This knowledge  
oking develops appreciation of a well-canned product, an excellent  é 
Sub loaf of bread or a beautifully made garment. These apprecia- VT
