having one of its Scouts select-
ed to go to Asheville. Miss
Dodson is likewise to be con-
gratulated upon having this
honor bestowed upon her. Mary
says that about the only draw-
back to this trip is the fact
she will have to speak before
approximately 900 people when
she goes to Asheville.

On September 21, Miss Ca-
mille Cleveland, Field Director
of the Girl Scouts in Greenville
County, accompanied the two
Greenville girls to Asheville
where plans were made for the
November meeting in Ashe-
ville. At this preliminary meet-
ing, which was held at the Bat-
tery Park Hotel, representa-
tives were present from Ashe-
ville and Gastonia in North
Carolina and from Spartan-
burg, South Carolina. These
representatives met with the
Greenville group. The Scouts
and thier leaders visited the
auditorium where the meeting
is to be held. Afterwards, the
group had dinner at the George
Vanderbilt Hotel.

Plans are now being made
here at Slater for Scout officials
of the local troop to attend all,
or at least a part, of the Ashe-
ville meeting.

Scout leaders for the Senior
Troop here at Slater are Miss
Eloise Loftis and Mrs. L. H.
Buchanan.

Enriched Grits
(Con't. from page 1, col. 4)

it will mean that corn bread,
grits, hush puppies, and hoe-
cakes will be just as good food
as whole wheat flour. Hereto-
fore, it hasn't been as good in
food value - though any dyed-
in-the-wool southerner would
give you a good arguement as
to the taste value in compari-
son with any other bread.

tary and treasurer; Patricia
Ann Summey, reporter; Inez
McGrew, program chairman;

been for the past few years.

Patricia Ann Summer,
Reporter

Watch the grits you buy and
be sure they are the best you
can buy - if the degerminated
grits on the market are not en-
riched, don't buy them. Peo-
ple should learn to eat home-
ground grits if the law isn't en-
forced to make these out-of-
state corn millers enrich their
degerminated grits. If you as
consumers demand they be en-
riched, these companies will
know there's more to it than a
fancy dream dreamt up by
long-haired college professors.
Don't say ''Grandpa grew up
on grits and lived to be 90''
unless you are sure what kind
of grits he ate. Two to one
they were home ground grits
with all the good left in. Two
to one the pretty white grits of
today would have made Grand-
pa laugh and say, ''sissy grits
I call 'em.''
