Abstract
Seaman A. Knapp is recognized as the father of the County Demonstration Agent System and is known for his innovative way of helping people help themselves. The author, unhappy with current attempts in programming in 4-H in the inner cities, quotes from one of Knapp's speeches: "Your mission is to solve the problems of poverty, to increase the measure of happiness, and to harness the forces of all learning to the useful and needful in human society." Westwood raises the question of what Knapp would do were he alive today and faced the crises and dilemma we find in the inner cities.
