It is one of the oldest organizations of its kind in America and is in fact as well as in name a farmers’ society. Its organization dates back to 1815. On its membership rolls are the names of John C. Calhoun and Thomas G. Clemson. In a paper read by Mr. Clemson in 1867 the advantages of the establishment of a college such as Clemson College were strongly set forth and ulti- Newberry Federal Who works yet never pays himself, A tragic Lesson teaches, How foolish these— iWho grow the trees— But waste the Ripened peaches.

One of the oldest members was not far wrong when he remarked that, “the Pendleton Farmers So ciety is the mother of Clemson Agricultural College”. This Society owns its own handsome colonial hall in the center of Pendleton., erected in the early part of the last century. BY DOROTHY MADDOX CARDINES, hot or cold, are always a welcome addition to any meal and make wonderful between-meal snacks. Sandwiches made with Norway sardines combined with lettuce, tomatoes and cucumbers on white, rye or pumpernickel bread, and served at your afternoon or evening Canasta party are refresh ing these warm days. Here’s the way we make them at our house: NORWEGIAN SNACK-TIME SANDWICHES (18 party-size sandwiches) Six slices white bread, 6 slices black pumpernickel, 6 slices rye bread, 3 (3%-ounc^ cans Norway sardines, butter, mayonnaise, 1 cucumber, 2 tomatoes, 1 small head lettuce. Butter bread and place lettuce leaves on three slices of each kind of bread. Completely cover lettuce with sardines. Add thinly sliced tomatoes to five halves and thinly sliced cucumbers to other four halves. Spread the remaining nine slices of bread with mayon naise. Press tops on firmly and cut sandwiches diagonally. Potato salad, always a favorite, takes on a tangy new slant when sardines are added. The Norwegians do it this way. It’s different and delicious. NORSE POTATO SALAD (8 servings) One (3%-ounce) tin Norway sardkies, 8 medium-sized potatoes, 2 hard-cooked eggs, 3 celery stalks, small head Romaine lettuce, 1 cucumber, 3 large sprigs parsley, chives, dry mustard, 4 table spoons olive oil, 2 tablespoons vinegar, salt, pepper. Cook potatoes and set to cool. Cut the cooled potatoes in slices about Vi-inch thick. Finely chop the celery stalks, 1 hard-cooked egg, fresh parsley sprigs and fresh chives. Mix ingredients in bowl. Drain olive oil from sardines into a second bowl and add additional olive oil, and 2 tablespoons vinegar. Season with pinch of dry mustard and salt and pepper to taste. Pour oyer salad and mix thoroughly. Finally, line the salad bowl Prompt Service on NOTARIAL SEALS AARON L- ROTLEDGE t. •. Mantd tod SooUl Hygl.n. Soolaty Runwo 0alT«r»lt> Offlo.« OrcenTin*. South Carolina HANDICAPPED CHILDREN Willie and I were buddies, and together we admired his toy jeep each morning as I entered the hos pital ward. He could speak only a few words and what he could comprehend was limited, but he enjoyed little kindnesses and at tention. He should not have been in the State Hospital because he added to the overcrowding and called for attention which the specialized staff , should have been giving to mental patients. And too,' he could not receive there the kind of care indicated for the “Mongolian” type of mental de ficiency. This misleading label is not a racial designation, but has been applied because of the physical appearance of a person afflicted with a little understood type of glandular disfunction. Many such cases became Institutional pro blems almost from the beginning, characterized b yemotional dis turbances an obstinacy, with some unable to learn to speak and most unable to control processes of elimination. Willie’s parents were loving and persistent in training him to do simple things, including dressing himself, going to the bath room, and feeding himself. They pro vided neat clothing and he took a certain pride in his appearance, and in the appearance of the house, sweeping and picking up things even in the hospital. In spite of this splendid train ing and his usually placid nature, he did become upset occasionally, and was increasingly difficult for his invalid mother to handle. Al so, he became sexually excited, and, with limited mentality, could not see the importance of exercis ing control. Usually he did noth ing more than exhibit himself, but the neighbors were worried and something had to be done. Institutionalized Private facilities were not avail able and the State Training School was the logical answer, but they were told by officials of the over crowded institution of a “three or four year waiting list.” In despera tion, upon suggestion of the judge and family physician, they com mitted him to the State Mental Hospital, continuing to take him out for short visits, which he anticipated' with joy. For years it has been common belief that the “mongol” mental development stops at about two years of age, and that they live only a short time. This has been disproved in many cases with mod ern glandular therapy and train ing methods. Not all of them can be trained to the extent of Willie, but early consistent efforts pro duce worthwhile results. Self-Sufficient A few can become relatively self-sufficient. I know of one who made his living and contri buted to his mother’s support sell ing papers. Another exceptional case became a musician in an orchestra, although. he could neither read nor write. The “Mon gol” love of music and movement should be utilized in equipping them for a fuller and happier life, satisfying their need for emotion al outlet. Whatever m&y be the true pic ture, parents need to know and accept It. On the other hand, con sistent training must go on to avoid sliding back in development. It is not intended here to say keep this child in the home, nor to say institutionalize him; but it is important that he be led in to the greatest development possi ble to him, which can be a chal lenge to a parent or teacher if they are not too easily discourag ed. A Dilemma What else could Willie’s par ents have done rather than com mit him to the State Hospital? There is no way of preventing their being born, although there are only about one to each three thousand babies born, and at some time or other most of these will become institutionalized. If for no other reason than that homes break up and no one is left to care for them. The only answer in the home is to begin very early and stick to a habit training program, assisting the child in developing his own potentialities. The same should be undertaken in institutions, and would save tremendous # amounts of time in care for the re»t of their lives, as well as enabling them to enjoy a measure of plea sure in life.

Norwegian snack-time sandwiches are ideal for hot weather parties. with lettuce leaves and transfer salad from the mixing bowl. Arrange whole sardines in a pyramid in the center of the salad over quartered sections of hard-cooked egg. Decorate salad with slices of fresh cucumbers with rinds. , Note: The small rich sardines from Norway come packed in either olive oil or natural slid oil. To keep any leftovers in perfect con dition for the next serving, store in a tightly covered glass or plastic container, in their own oil. Keep them in refrigerator.
