C, Bj: David Donlingor The annual 4-H Leadership School which had previously been held at Penn State Uni versity was conducted this year •at the National 4-H Center in suburban Washington, D. C. Pennsylvania's delegation traveled to Washington to par ticipate in a Citizenship Short Course, a, course which is of fered at the Center each week throughout the summer mo uths Along with Pennsylvania the states of Georgia. Illinois, and lowa were represented during the .week o£ July 8. Judy Warfel and I were the delegates from Lancaster Co. As the name of the course implies. Its purpose is to train flf-H’ers to be good citizens and leaders. This goal was reached hy means of lectures, small group discussions, and field trips Oour tours took us to the many historic shrines and points of interest located in the capital city. The 4-H group visited many of the governent buildings, various memorials, the White House, and Mt. Vernon. Following our tour of the Capital w£ had an opportunity to speak with our Congressman. You may wondei why it is important to study citizenship. First, I should define the term "Citizenship is a relationship between oneself and others, in which each person acts with intelligent concern for the good of all ” Probably citiz enship is most frequently thought of only on the na tional level, but actually there are many other levels. The home, 4-H Club, the commu nity, the state, and the world are other important horizons of citizenship. Each individual is import ant m a democracy The rights of every person, not only my rights, are important for the fullest development of free dom For this reason it is necessary for everyone t’o be come a good citizen The Citi zenship short Course is an ideal means of implanting the prin ciples of good citizenship in a club member’s mind. “Am government that is big enough to gue vou evei>- thmk you want is big enough to take ev erytlung >ou’ve got ” -Gen Features Corp, By: Judy Warfel First, what is citizenship’ Citizenship is a relationship between one’s self and others, in which each person acts with intelligent concern for the good of all. Thus citizenship is a two-way relationship. You have rights which you can expect from others; but you also have a duty to preserve other’s rights. Citizenship starts in the home. Democratic citizenship is learned and' practiced flist here. 4-H Clubs are important in helping to develop citizenship as boys and girls grow from childhood to maturity. Other face-to-face groups such as Sunday School, day school, give us opportunities to learn to be good citizens. Citizenship in the com munity and county includes people we see occasionally. Many community service acti vities ot 4 -H give opportuni ties tor developing citizenship in the community circle. As citizens of the state, we haie -common problems and interests with many people we do not see. As citizens of the nation, we have many common con cerns and interests What hap pens in another part of the country, may affect us just as much as it affects the people on the scene.

Citizenship in the world of nations is becoming increas ingly crucial. Tins is a new horizon of American citizen ship. We are realizing our citizenship responsibilities in the world. Each day a different phase of citizenship was brought to our attention in the theme for the day and was discussed m the assemblies. A 4-H Club might want to pick out one segment of citi zenship for special emphasis during the year. This club might work at the political aspects ot community and state citizenship by helping get out the vote tor local elections The family aspects of world citizenship can be learned through people-to-people pro jects In either case, they would use the underlying prin ciples of science, values, and making the best better. If a person acts with intel ligent concern for the good of all, he must use his entire self —head, heart, hands, and health Does this sound like the 4-H Club Pledge’ Ot cour se it does' Wheie could you find a bettei statement of good citizenship 9 I pledge my HEAD to cleaiei thinking, my HEART to gi eater loyalty, my HANDS to laiger ser vice, and my HEALTH to better P*t*nl«d 1-polnl Heavy Duty—tor alios IV to 3V WRIT!
