CHICAGO--"No deposit, no return! If a person doesn't give of himself he won't re­ ceive or achieve anything in his lifetime," says Gregory Hartman of Pueblo, Colo. One of last year's Henry Ford II scholarship winners in the national 4-H achievement program, Hartman adopted a war orphan and corresponded with him for many years. He sent money so the youngster could stay in an orphanage and off the streets. Now the adopted boy is old enough to work and help support him­ self and his ailing mother. ' Thus, one of Hartman's many "deposits" in life has pro­ duced a "return." Learoing and sharing The 4-H achievement pro­ gram is sponsored by Ford Motor Company Fund through the National 4-H Service Committee. Under the supervision of the Coop­ erative Fxtension Service, young persons from 9 to 19 give their time and talents to a variety of individual and group service activities. The young achievers may1 work with low-income adults and children in expanded -food-nutrition programs. Or volunteer their after-school and weekend hours as candy stripers in local hospitals. Or provide companionship to the aged and assistance to the mentally retarded. Whatever activity 4-H'ers choose, their dedication to serving others is an outgrowth of the learn-by-doing situa­ tions they encounter in the 4-H program. 4-H projects stress practical skills that con­ tribute to personal growth and development and ulti­ mately benefit the commun­ ity and the nation. Top 4-H'ers recognized 4-H'ers who excel in achievement may share in awards offered by Ford Motor Company Fund. Awards include medals of honor to four members per county, an expense-paid trip to the 54th National 4-H Congress (Nov. 30-Dec. 4 in Chicago) to one winner from each state, and $800 college scholarships to nine national- winners. The high-ranking boy and girl among the national win­ ners receive silver trays pre­ sented by the President of the United States. All winners are selected by the Fxtension Service on the basis of achievements and leadership in 4-H and their community service.
