Won Lone Play-Off
The Rehoboth people right hur
riedly decided last Sunday to cele
brate the second Sunday in August
the first day of our series of meet
ings, as home coming day. After
Sunday the meeting will be morn
ing and evening service. We are
hoping that this, our first home
coming day, will be a success from
every standpoint, realizing it is an
undertaking with so few members;
still we are going to try to make
it a success and hope no one wil
go away hungry. The home peo
ple understand it means that a
huge basket from each family must
be brought. A special invitation
is extended to all former members
and residents of this church, and
also to the former pastors. We
surely wish Rev. Littlejohn, who
was our pastor for 20 years, could
be with us; and an invitation is al
so extended across the ocean to
Rev. Jackson, a former pastor, as
well as all other former pastors
There are quite a few of them
scattered about. We also wish it
were possible for our eldest mem
ber and wife, Mr. Robert Broad
water and his brother, Mr. Nick
Broadwater, to be with us. Mem
bers are scattered from Florida to
North Carolina and other places.
We are looking forward to a pleas
ant day. To each, a welcome.
The Rehoboth people are to meet
on Wednesday before second Sun
day for a house and yard clean
ing, so both ladies and gentlemen
are requested to come early on
Wednesday, and should it be rainy
so cannot come, Thursday is the
day.

The appetite appeal of attractive
dishes cannot be over-emphasized
at any time, but in the summer,
when the weather cakes the edge
off our desire for food, it is es
pecially important to prepare and
serve good looking as well as good
tasting meals.
Inez S. Willson, home economist,
suggests these meat dishes as be
ing ideal for the summer dinner:
2 cups minced boiled ham
1 1-2 tablespoons gelatine
4 tablespoons cold water
1 3-4 cups boiling stock
4 tablespoons chopped green
pepper
1-4 cup chopped beet pickles
1-4 teaspoon white pepper
1-4 teaspoon celery salt
1 tablespoon onion juice
2 hard-cooked eggs.
Soak gelatine in col,d water for
five minutes. Dissolve in boiling
stock. Add seasonings. Combine
the ham, pickles, and gelatine mix
ture. Decorate a ring mold with
slices of hard-cooked egg. Turn
in the ham and chill. Unmold and
fill center with mixed vegetable
salad.
Molded Lamb Tongues
Cook lamb tongues until tender
in hot water to which salt, a few
celery seeds, and 1 small onion
have been added as seasonings.
When done, cool, remove skin and
slice and reserve the liquid in
which cooked. Strain this liquid
and for each pint add 1 table
spoon gelatine. Chill a mold and
pour in a little of the stock, add a
layer of the sliced tongue, then
more stock, and repeat until the
meat is all used. The meat should
be covered with stock. Allow sev
eral hours for the jelly to set. Un
mold.
Lamb in Mint Jelly
Cut fine one bunch of mint, cov
er with vinegar, and add sugar to
taste. Let stand over night. Rub
through a fine sieve and add 2
cups of white stock. Tint green
with vegetable coloring. Add 1-? !

GRANGE PICNIC SPEAKERS EN
COURAGE FARM FOLKS
TO UNITE
CLEMSON COLLEGE, July 25.—
Organized community life such as
is accomplished in the Grange is
the great hope of agriculture and
its next important step,” said Dr.
W. W. Long, director of the exten
sion Service, who believes that the
Grange, involving the whole family
and the welfare of all phases of
farm and home, offers the best
agency to bring about such organ
ization. Dr. Long was speaking at
the annual picnic of the State
Grange held at Clemson College,
July 21, and concluded his remarks
with the statement: “Clcmsoi:
College is committed to the sup
port of the Grange.”
Ex-Congressman A. F. Lever,
principal speaker at the Grange
meeting, reviewing the economic
and agricultural status, said that
agriculture rests upon a oripod, the
"hree legs of which are production
finance, and distribution. He traced
the history of agricultural legisla
tion resulting in the establishment
of agricultural colleges for teaching
experiment stations for fact find
ing, and extension services for
oractical distribution of informa
tion. He discussed also the im
portant work of the Government in
supporting co-operative marketing,
the Federal Farm Board, the land
banks and other matters tending to
improve the financial status of the
farmer and the economic distribu
tion of his products. He called on
farmers to unite for taking ad-
