Mason County proved to be a
stronger market than most during
the past year, according to a
nationwide survey of business
activity, just released.
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.
