.   PURPOSE OF A DEDIOXSTRATION
. iii 1. To present to the community improved practices in ho111e
    making and farming. as learned in —l—H club work, and to create
    in otl1ers a desire to follow these practices.
__.   if 2. To 1nore permanently impress these better methods on
  Q the club members themselves thru actual use.
. * _! 3. To develop in the club member skill, poise, self-reliance.
  J { initiative. good sportsmanship and cooperation.
  4. To have boys and girls experience the joy of doing a
  ,4 V; thing well, thereby motivating their interest in club work.
‘   TYPES OF DERIONSTRATIOXS
  {  . Two types of demonstrations are generally used in —l—H club
\  ; work; individual, Z].ll(l team. Each should be developed. They
‘ z
    may be defined as follows:
  An i11<{iz1id11<1/ demonstration is one that is given by one club
_   1llC1lll)€1` and treats of only one phase of a larger subject. Gen- I
    €l€\ll)' lll(llVl(lLl[tl demonstrations are used at local club meetings
l tl to teach a part of the project. For example, i11 sewing, “Cutting
. and _lt)l1llllg` a liias" could easily be demonstrated by one girl.

l PLACE OF DEMONSTRATIONS IN THE CLUB PROGRAM.
  Demonstrations may provide interesting and {worth-while
  features of CO1DmU1li'Ey meetings or local and county achieve-
  ment day programs. They offer to others an opportunity to
  learn from the club members new methods as taught in -l-H club
  work and give the members an incentive to greater effort.
  Early in the season, plans should be made to include both
  individual and team demonstrations in the program of work of
 f l every local club. It is advisable that each club member demon-
  strate at the club meetings at least once during the year; oftener
  is desirable. This experience in local meetings prepares the way
  for representation in county and state team demonstration con-
  tests. If this idea is followed in program planning, the result
    should be an active, wide-awake group who enjoy a fine club
na   spirit and who enthusiastically pass on their knowledge to others.

    DEVELOPING A TEADI DEDIONSTRATION.
’ LL`.
N if Two club members working together in the presentation of
` i a demonstration may derive real fun and satisfaction from their
 * work as well as learning cooperation. At first, the work may
  seem laborious to them, but as soon as a fair degree of skill is
 * .l‘`·i acquired they will welcome an opportunity to demonstrate.
  ln developing a Team Demonstration, consider the follow-
` ing:
...   l. The Subject.
A ‘ a. Members should be guided in their choice of subjects, ·
‘_i,;—_ in order that they may not attempt work that is too difficult for
  4 them. as the satisfaction resulting from demonstrating will deter-
  »` mine the club member’s desire to continue.
Y ’ `·~” . l>. The subject should be the outgrowth of the member’s
_` club training and should be related to the project.
C. The subject should be one which shows an approved
www practice taught in 4-I-I club work.
fl. lf a home economics subject is chosen, it should be prac-
tical and of interest to the women and girls of the community.
lu a similar way, an agricultural subject should be practical and

A demonstration of methods and value of testing (arm seeds for purity
and germination.
Give each me1nber of the team a deiinite part but draw ‘
no strict lines in the early development of any topic.
5. The Presentation. The test of a successful de1no11st1·ati011
should be that every member of the audience could go home and
repeat the process. Merely holding the attention of a group is
not sufficient. The demonstration should create interest and
present process or method clearly.
Skill is shown b ease in rocedure efficienc r and workniau-
y
ship, neatness, speed, ability to meet unforseen situations, and ·
, ability to talk while working. Skill i11 presenting the denionstrzi-
tions inspires conhdence both in the audience a11d in the dem-
onstrators.
Keep in mind the following 1)Oil1t5Z
a. The latform should be arran<>‘ed with the working space
b
free from an r ob ects that mi<>‘ht obstruct the view of the audrencc.
b
Tl1e stage should be arranged and cleared by the team lli€lill)€i`?
themselves. Care should be taken to leave the place orderly alter
a demonstration.

give the information in their own words. They should tell how
the practice being demonstrated has been helpful to them.
e, Team members should look at the audience while speak-
ing and take pleasure in their work. By observing the audience.
demonstrators can (l€l1€l'lllll`l€ whether or not they are making
the methods clear.
f. Each member should take the lead in the demonstration
at regularly speeihed intervals, depending on the work to be
done. \\’hen one member has the major part speaking and dem-
onstrating. the other member should quietly assist. The transi-
tions from one memberis lead to the other’s should be made
naturally. This shows good team work. The member who has
the helping part should be very careful not to attract the atten-
tion of the audience from the member who is taking the lead.
\\'here possible, the team member who is demonstrating a process
should explain it also. The work should be planned so that the
helper does not stand or sit idle.
