Our chapter consisting of thirty-four members, was very active in the F. F. A. this year. The membership consists of boy’s representing all classes in the high school. We have sponsored many worthwhile projects. Our regular meetings were held on the first Monday of each month. We had election of officers the first meeting of the year. They are as follows:

STOCK SHOWS AND FAIRS

At the Davenport Fair John Schultz had the Grand Champion steer. John Humprey won a blue and a red ribbon on his lambs. Shop projects were exhibited by Ronald Walther, Ronald Ahlf, Rodger Hein, Neil Schmitt and Harold Cox.

We exhibited at the Davenport Preview this spring. Again Tom Schultz won honors by exhibiting an Angus steer which won champion honors. He also won the showmanship. Charles Meye exhibited the second place Hereford and placed fourth in the grooming and showing contest. Walter Clouse exhibited a Shorthorn which was reserve champion of the show. Jerry Schultz had the second place Angus.

Boys from Reardan who exhibited steers at the Spokane Junior Livestock Show were Tom Schultz, Jerry Schultz, Bill Hein, Rodger Hein, Walter Clouse, and Charles Meye. John Humphrey exhibited two hogs.
