The Laurens county unit of the
American Cancer Society has
been awared a Certificate of
Merit for having done “so much
with so little,” according to an
nouncement by Mrs. Paul H.
Leonard, executive director
the state division.
The Laurens county unit is
under the direction of Mrs. Sarah
D. De Loach, commander. Dr.
Charles Bernes of Laurens, was
director of the annual crusade.
“It is most gratifying to see s
county do such a fine piece of
work as Laurens has done,” Mrs.
Leonard said. “Perhaps no coun
ty in the state has been able to
help more indigent cancer cases.”
“Special mention must be
made," she said, “of the large and
well-equipped loan closet Mrs.
DeLoach has on hand with which
to lend needed articles to cancer
patients. She has been able to
supply furniture, a cook stove,
radio*, and other articles as well
as sheets, dressings, clothing, etc.,
to indigent cancer cases. Her
loan closet may well be a de
monstration one for all coupties
of the state."
“For having done so much for
so many with so little,” the South
Carolina division has bestowed
upon the Laurens County Cancer
unit a Certificate of Merit- This
certificate is for every volunteer
who has given service to this
program — and Mrs. DeLoach
numbers them by the hundreds.
She has had excellent leaders
The Laurens county unit made
an “outstanding contribution this
year to the 1954 Crusade,” ac
cording to Julian H. Scarborough
state president. The county rank
ed among the four highest in the
of state for contributions in propor
tion to its per capita income and
first in proportiorv.to the number
of donors in the county, he sakL
The amount raised in the cru
