Despite the fact that the country was going through a period of recession and inflation, which affected every corner of the nation, the local economy held up relatively well. Its stability is indicated by its income and spending figures. National 4-H week is being observed America's Bicentennial period, which begins this year and extends into the 1980's, is an appropriate point in time to pause and reflect on our history, assess where we stand today, and look ahead to new horizons. More than seven million young people across the country are doing just that during National 4-H Week, October 5-11, and throughout the coming year. In special observances keyed to the theme, "4-H-76... Spirit of Tomorrow;' they'll be taking a close look at 4-H past, present, and future. The 4-H'ers have a proud heritage. The movement that became 4-H began around the turn of the century and grew out of a need to make education more practical and interesting to farm youth. The first 4-H projects - corn clubs for boys and canning clubs for girls - offered enriching, real-life learning experiences not provided by rural schools of the era. Projects have changed through the years as the faces of 4-H'ers have changed. But the basic "learn by doing" concept still holds and has wide appeal. Today's 4-H'ers take part in activities that range from animal care to environmental improvement to photography and bicycle care and safety. Although 4-H continues to serve the needs of rural youth, it has also proved viable in the cities: 17 percent of 4-H members live in large urban and suburban areas. And 4-H'ers come from all racial, ethnic and socio-economic backgrounds. By encouraging high standards and the setting of meaningful goals, 4-H lays a broad and firm base for a lifetime of personal growth. As today's youth grow to adulthood, they will face a world unlike the one most of us grew up in. There will be more people and fewer resources. And there will be vital issues in government that call for wise decision-making. In challenging young people To Make the Best Better, the head-heart-hands-health program prepares them to assume the responsibilities of adulthood in a changing society. We salute 4-H members, their parents, volunteer leaders, and the Cooperative Extension Service professionals who conduct the 4-H program. Their efforts, combined with the endorsement and support of private business; make 4-H a dynamic organization that promises to be as responsive to the needs of youth tomorrow as it is today. HAPPY HEARTBEATS "DIG THAT BEATI" Dr.J.M. Gordon kids Cecilia Sutton, as she listens to the heartbeat of her unborn baby on a fetal monitoring machine. She was a diabetic patient at the Univer- sity of Louisville Medical Center's high-risk obstetrical clinic, set up with the help of the March of Dimes for the prevention of birth defects. The details are contained in the new, copyrighted "Survey of Buying Power," compiled by Sales Management, the marketing publication. For the Mason County population as a whole, it shows, income was at a high level in the year. The total amount that was available to local residents for discretionary spending, after payment of personal taxes, was $107,370,000, as against the previous year's $94,780,000. Just what this boiled down to, in terms of the individual family, is indicated by the median income per household, which is the midpoint on the local income scale. It amounted to a net of $12,659. It compares with $11,890 in the United States and with $12,423 in the Pacific States. Although local residents were more restrained in their spending than normally, many of them having difficulty in making both ends meet, the majority were better situated financially and were in the marketplace in sufficient strength to produce a fairly good year for retail merchants. As a result, stores in the area chalked up gross sales of $47,140,000, up from the previous $40,044,000. The survey gives each community a rating, based upon the amount of retail business actually done as compared with its estimated full capacity. This it does via an index of buying power, a weighted figure involving income, population and sales. Mason County's index rating is .0101, which means that it is believed capable of producing that percentage of the nation's retail business. Because it accounted for less than that in the year, .0084 percent, it is concluded that a considerable amount of local buying potential has not yet been realized.
