family—not the saving of money
spent for those supplies. Medical
authorities and food specialists say
that to be healthy and strong and ac
tive one should eat plenty of fruit
and vegetables.
Now is the time to do definite plan
ning. Two methods are suggested.
One is to aim for a definite food bud
get for the family, based on the
nourishment needed for the family
according to food specialists. The
second method, which is more gener
ally used, is to list the crops the
family likes and to determine how
much should be planted.
A little more planning would en
able most South Carolina gardeners
to have fresh vegetables direct from
the garden during at least eight
months of the year, sometimes even
twelve.
After farm boys and girls have
helped their parents plan a good
gardening program, then it is the
job of the youth to do and enjoy do
ing lots of the garden work. A farm
family will find the time they spend
together working in their garden
the happiest time they can spend in
working, singing, and enjoying life
together as a family.

April 7.
The rooms were decorated with
green plumoras, fern and vases of
white gladioli. An improvised altar
of banked ferns and gladioli with
white tapers in the background was
in the living room. The stairway
was a mass of spirea thumbergi and
fern, with soft light of tapers on
high candleabra, casting a glow.
Little Miss Martha Jane Ligrett
sang “Liebestraum”, accompanied by
Mrs. Maggie Grisham, before the
ceremony. The wedding party came
down the graceful stairway, to the
strains of Mendelssohn’s “Wedding
March’’, played by Miss Virginia

by Dwight Springer of Humboldt,
Tenn., who was best man. Mrs.
Wells wore a print frock in gray and
white, a leghorn bait and white ac
cessories with touches of red. Her
corsage was red rosebuds.
The bride entered on the arm of
her father, and was met at the al

The bride was gowned in a suit in
