4-H Emblem Gets Star Treatment in Real Simple Magazine

The 4-H Emblem gets the star treatment on Page 58 of the March 2007 issue of Real Simple magazine. Check out the feature, “four-leaf clover 101”:

“In 1907 a three-leaf clover became the symbol of rural youth clubs across the United States, with each leaf representing one H—for head, heart, and hands. Two years later, the emblem was upgraded to four leaves and H’s, the last representing health. By 1924 these clubs had united and became widely known as 4-H, an organization devoted to teaching leadership, citizenship, and life skills to youth in urban, suburban, and rural areas.”
