Ten Golden labrador pup-
pies were in this program
which has ther 4-H member
and his or her family raise
the puppy to just over one-
year of age. During this
critical time of the dog's
development, the 4-H'er must
observe and make note of
such things as how the dogs
react to thunder, lightning,
children, strangers, cats and
other dogs. There are strict
requirements for being ac-
cepted into the final phase of
training. The dogs must pass
respond in the same way so
that a buyer may immediate-
ly begin to work the dogs
without a great deal of “trial
and error.”
Dogs continue to be a
special kind of project for 4-H
members throughout the
state.
Educational programs con-
ducted by the Texas
Agricultural Extension Ser-
vice serve people of all ages

levels, race, color, sex,

How about the 4-H mem-
bers who had to give up their
dogs? Well, this is never an
easy part of the program but,
for the most part, they handl-
ed it well. Yes, there were
some tears, but there was
also much joy in knowing that
"their dog” would be of in-
valuable service to a blind
person.

Rosanky 4-H Club in Bastrop

More and more 4-H’ers are
going to the dogs - dog pro-
jects, that is.
With events such as the
State 4-H Dog Show recently
held in Conroe and two
special training projects on
dogs, Texas 4-H’ers have
been especially busy with
man’s best friend.
Dogs are an excellent pro-
ject for 4-H members and in-
terest continues to grow.
From simply learning to
feed, groom and exercise the
family pet to complicated
specialty training, 4-H
members are using the dog as.
a 4-H project. A dog can teach
many things to a 4-H’er, one
of the most significant being
responsibility - responsibili-
ty for a living thing which
takes daily care and atten-
tion.
Grayson County 4-H
members recently had a most
rewarding experience with
their dog projects. They were
the first Texas 4-H members
to raise guide dogs for the
blind, a project popular
throughout the Midwest and
East for many years.
Rice paper is not made
from rice, but from the pit of
a Formosan plant, ‘‘Fatsia
papyrifers.”
The village of Tadoussac, Quebec, at the mouth of the Saguenay River, claims to be
Canada's oldest settlement since a fur-trading post was built there in 1599.

Where has all the romance gone?
I’m talking about the bits of poetry that were whispered in
your ear. The subtle brush of a curl from your forehead. The
strains of a melody that captured the moment.
I figured out the other day the last time my husband had his
arm around me at the dinner table was in 1969. I had a
chicken bone caught in my throat.
When did sentimentality begin to crumble? Was it the first
time men peeked under the long skirts and discovered we had
legs and not pedestals? Was it the first time we looked over a
man’s shoulder and said, “You don’t have to take the mower
in for service, Ralph. All you’ve got is a clogged carburetor.
Give me the wrench.” Or was it the first time we slammed
our own car door on his outstretched hand?
Romanticism has become so ... so practical. Remember
when a woman used to wear a gold heart around her neck et-
ched in French, “Je t’aime lus que hier, moins que demain.”
(“I love you more than yesterday, less than tomorrow.”)
Now she wears a door key or a toothbrush, which is about as
subtle as a pickup truck running over your foot!
I saw an ad awhile back for Cosmopolitan in which a girl
with tousled hair was saying, “For my birthday, he brought
me six boxes of blueberries and a Spanish shawl. On his bir-
thday, he sent me Dog Perignon and his birth certificate with
the message, ’I was born to be yours’.
“On the first anniversary of our meeting we went to Ber-
muda, enjoyed the pink sand, the underwater caves and each
other for five straight days (and nights). My favorite
magazine says there’s no thrill on earth like having a man in
love with you."
Where did she find this man? In one of the underwater
caves?
I tell you we’ve lost it. We’ve gone from the prose of
Elizabeth Barrett Browning to Burma Shave to quotes from
Peanuts and Paul Harvey.
Our sentiments are mass produced by Hallmark. Our in-
nermost secrets are transferred to bumper stickers. Our pet
names for one another are shared with the world on license
plates.
A friend said the other day, "Cheer up. Traditions are
returning. Brides are no longer being married in a free-fall
parachute jump or in a forest witnessed by chipmunks.
They're returning to antique satin and veils of illusion tulle.
The music has gone from Days of Wine and Roses’ to ’We’ve
Only Just Begun.' There are traditional receptions for the
family, honeymoons and the throwing of bird seed.”
“Bird seed!” I said. “What happened to rice?”
“It was impractical!”
See what I mean? ___
