- Farmville's choice: In this lesson, students will learn about rural life in North Carolina at the turn of the century. Home demonstration and 4H clubs implemented many programs to help people learn better farming techniques, ways of preserving food, and taking care of the home. Several North Carolina leaders went to great lengths to ensure the success of these programs. In part of this activity, students help the town of Farmville dedicate a monument to one of those people.

This black and white photograph shows 4-H club members attending a club meeting in Millingport, Stanly County, North Carolina. The girls and boys are sitting in rows of wooden chairs on a playground next to a brick school building. A make-shift basketball goal can be seen behind them. A large desk has been placed in front of the group and a girl is sitting behind it in a cane-bottom chair facing the students. A boy is standing behind the desk speaking to the group. His chair is pushed back behind him. All the students are wearing cloth caps with white bands around them and a 4-H emblem sewn on the side. A few adult men and women are sitting on the back row. The year of the photograph is 1927.
