In the last few years, 4-H has been adapted to more than seventy-five countries around the globe. International membership has passed the fivemillion mark. The International Farm Youtl\ Exchange (IFYE) program has helped to spread the 4-H story to Denmark, Argentina, Ecuador, Germany, Honduras, Iraiy Italy, Thailand, Turkey, Chile, Brazil, Vietnam and other countries. Since 1948, more than 1,700 U.S. young people have spent six months to a year in Africa, Asia, Europe, South America, the Middle East and Pacific areas. In exchange, more than 2,000 young farm people from 70 foreign nations have lived here with more than 25,000 farm families in the United States. About 700 Illinois families have hosted 175 of these foreign exchanges. This year McHenry county has hosted two IFYE's. Esther Lynch of Ireland stayed with the Maynard McCullough family, in Harvard, earlier this summer, and Stuart Collie from New Zealand has lived with the William Davidson family, of Harvard also, this past week. The McHenry County 4-H federation helped to sponsor these two young people during their stay. People who carry responsibilities on their shoulders seldom have room for chips. Four-H members are widely known as "doers". As a matter of fact, 4-H pioneered' the "learn-by-doing" method of informal teaching. Today, an estimated 3 million boys and girls between 9 and 19 years oa ge are engaged in some fifty different projects. These projects have been developed over the years by the Cooperative Extension Service which supervises all 4-H work. Hie majority of the projects -or programs- are suitable for urban as well as rural 4-H®ers. For example, agricultural projects, such as livestock, crops and marketing are designed for farm youngsters who make up about 39 percent of the national enrollment. Projects and activities in science, consumer education, home and money management, home economics, health, safety, leadership and mechanics are suitable for all 4-H members. The projects are set up so the 4-H*er can advance in an orderly fashion under the guidance of volunteer adult leaders and esqjerienced 4-H junior leaders. When projects are completed, 4-H'ers are encouragedto evaluate their own achievements. Not only is it possible to compete with other 4-H'ers engaged in like projects, but there is a special program called "achievement" which considers progress in their total 4-H efforts. It is the national 4-H Achievement program sponsored by the Ford Motor Company fund. Annual awards are offered for the best overall records submitted in county, state and national competition. Last year, for example, nearly 9,000 members in fifty states qualified for county medal awards. The top state award is a trip to the National 4-H Congress held in Chicago the week after Thanksgiving. From the 1968 twelve will be < al $500 scl cial award of ver serving tray, , the name of the President of the United States, will be given to the highest ranking girl and boy from among the national winners.
