THE NEWBERRY SUN
FRIDAY, MAY 2, 1952
Yearly Report Made Of
County Council Activities
Club members are very proud
to have an Agricultural Building
as the hub of activities, so to
speak. In the order that the
meeting facilities might be more
ideal, club members through the
council of farm women worked to
gether to purchase a piano.
This was only one of the main
projects in 1951-52. Believeing
that children are the most im
portant crops, they donated
$396.24 toward their $1000 quota
for the State 4-H Club Camp Im
provement Fund.
Home Demonstration clubs co
operate with worthwhile drives,
such as Red Cross, T. B. f etc.
in their local communities. One
of the most outstanding is the
work with the Cancer Drive. Last
Spring over $500.00 was raised
by the clubs.
Realizing that . Education is
most important, the council con
tributed $50.00 to the Opportunity
School in West Columbia.
Through penny contributions,
around $60.00 was collected to
send to aid to rural folks in
foreign lands.
Each month a club showered
the hospital with home grown
produce. They also visited the
County Home.
24 members participated in
reading 6 books from a prepared
list from the Rural Library.
A great deal of work was done
with club members in regard to
Beautification of home grounds.
An extensive study was made of
special flowers and shurbs, such
as roses, azaleas, camellias and
lilies. As a result of this 476
roses, 186 camellias, 550 azalaes
and 22,000 glad bulbs were plant
ed and 48 lawns started. Right
along with this work goes re
modeling and renovating old
homes. Seventy five reported re
finishing floors, 26 homes under
pinned, 40 bathrooms added, and
45 homes remodeled.
Several months were spent
studying the best methods for
freezing meats, vegetables, fruits
and cooked foods. Ninety-five re
ported purchasing new home
freezers.
, During the past few months,
club members have been study
ing the selection of dinnerware,
eating appliances, glassware, table
linens and table setting.
The next few months will be
devoted to the decorating of the
interior of homes, studying the
selection of curtains and draper
ies, floor coverings and floor
finishes, color schemes and finish
es of wall and woodwork.
There are 17 clubs in the coun
ty with a total enrollment of over
400. Serving as presidents of
I these groups are the following:
Jalapa, Mrs. C. C. Wallace; Tran-

BOYS ARE
THAT WAY
By J. M. ELEAZER
With us in the stone hills it
was always three meals ^ a day,
full meals.
We knew nothing of this thing
they call “lunch” now. We had
lunches sometimes, but they came
between meals, day or night. And
we didn’t always call even that
lunch. We usually called it “a
nick-nack to eat.”
We started off with breakfast
by the ight of a lamp. It was
not fruit juice and ceral. It was
a full-fledged meal, always grits
and gravy and country ham or
other meat and eggs, with plenty
of hot biscuits, butter, and pre
serves or jelly.
As noon approached, we listen
ed for the bell that carried the
welcome news across the rolling
hills. Then we unhitched the
mule, or laid down what we were
doing, and made our way to the
house. We drew a fresh bucket
of water, took a deep drink of it,
carried the rest to the back
porch, washed up, and were ready
to realty eat. The table was
laden with varied vegetables,
meat, and sweets. That was din
ner. We ate so much then that
all were drowsy, and we took a
brief nap on the floor of the
front porch before the hour of
one struck and the bell rang
again, calling everyone to his
task.
Those who had the chores to
do, left at sunset. The others
worked on a while until you
couldn’t see good. Supper was
ready at dark. And that’s the
meal we enjoyed most. Not that
it was any more elaborate than
the rest. But that was the end of
day, we were not in a hurry,
and we sat and talked until the

From Newt Hatter, Pinecastle,
Fla.: My mother about Septem
ber would get ready to weave cloth
First she would card and spin the
yarn on a big spinning wheel, then
gather walnut hulls and sage grass,
etc., to dye the yarn. Then she
would weave out a hundred yard:
of linsey cloth from which she made
blankets. Then she would put in
another warp of a hundred yardi
for jeans.
From Mrs. David McMullen, Bor-

three round cylinders, turned by
a long pole, propelled by a mule
and the juice would come out of s

put in a long vat to cook. It cookec
a long time, and sometimes I’d gc
down to the vat after some mo
lasses for taffy.
From George H. Briggs, Los An

around the harness shop of an
uncle much admired. Each autumn
he would bring in great rolls
buffalo hides. The farm people
would buy these for use in the
winter as robes, rugs or materia!
for coats.
