Sherrard’s cranberry-pineapple salad, which she concocts on special club occasions. When we heard about the colorful, delicious salad' we hied to the Sherrard home on Sanford Heights to learn about how it was made. The visit was a delightful one fo r in addition to obtaining the desired recipe from our charming hostess we enjoyed to the fu ll the beautiful garden and the gra cious home, which the Sherrard’s have b uilt over a period o f twen ty years of married life. The flowers which the Sher rard’s grow are lovely and we arcT-' mired many unusual varieties. Indoors an ivy geranium, which we are told is very hard to Start, caught our eye, also a beautiful gloxinia which was flowering pro fusely. The gloxinia was grown from a leaf, Mrs. Sherrard told us. A delicately tinted pitcure of the McKenzie rive r hangs in the Sherrard living room. We learned It was the last picture colored by the late George W. Taylor, Sr., before his eyesight became im paired. The fru it salad which was the inspiration for our visit is made as follows: F R U IT SALAD 1 t-os. can pineapple chunks 1 pkg. raspberry gelatine 2 caps liquid (syrup drained from pineapple plus water) t , teaspoon salt U cup surar 2 tablsp. sherry if desired L, lb. raw cranberries ground Drain pineapple, dissolve gela tine in 1 cup hot liquid, add re maining liquid, salt and sugar.

SCHROEDER Countv Extension Agent, (4-H) The new club year w ill soon be here so here is'a suggestion as far as record books go. I was on the committee scoring record books at thd State Fair and the books re ceiving the highest scores were those that were up-to-date and ac curate up to the end of the month preceding the check. A story w ritten month by month when, .the work, .of the, jnontb. Jj s till fresh in your mind, is the proper way to w rite your story. Pictures taken at regular intervals and clippings that te ll about you and your club count a great deal. It is not necessary to be restricted to the one or tw o pages in your book. A ll extra pages should be the same, size as the originals to write a more complete story. • I want to take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you fo r the wonderful work you have done this past year in 4-H club work. As you read this I w ill be on my way to duty w ith the United States army, so w ill not be here to thank each of you in person. I have certainly enjoyed working w ith you because you are such a wonderful group to work w ith and really cooperated with me in every way. I would like to ask a few favors of each and every one. of you. The firs t is finish your work fo r this year in good shape and help our county to have a very high per centage o f completions: and the second is to enroll in 4-H club work this coming year and give the present agents and the new 4-H agent the same fine support you have given me. That would be, I believe, the finest going away g ift that any person could receive. I t w ill help you too as you w ill find out in a few years. • I hope that this mess can be cleaned up very soon so that all of you can lead normal and peace ful lives. • A note to leaders—4-H club work needs you. Please lead clubs again this coming year and make your best efforts better this year The boys and g irls you help w ill. remember you fo r a long time. Let’s make the best better this coming year.
