Sponsored by Congressman Jack Brinkley, the organization will work closely with him in promoting the "Youth in Government” idea. Steve Dugan, the Club’s Dis trict Chairman, visited Perry this week and at that time said Congressman B-’inkley was very interested in gaining the advice and counsel of young people through their participation in a Congress Club.

He said he felt the exchange of ideas between young people and their Representatives in Con gress would be beneficial “to the Congress, the young people, the District and the Nation.” Mi ss Rider stated the club would begin to form a hoard of directors in the next week and after that membership would be increased to include all young people interested in participat ing in their government.

Mrs. Aurelia Evans called me to join her staff to meet Miss Chira Sakornpan, a Medical Social Worker from Thailand. Miss Sakornpan was here to observe the program on family planning. Miss Charlon Seegar, Family Planning Consultant from the Georgia State Office in Atlanta brought Miss Sakornpan to ob serve here as this county has started this program and is more advanced than some others. It was interesting to learn a bit about the diet of Miss Sakorn pan’s country. In Thailand rice is the main food, raw food is also eaten, fish and fruit. (Bananas especially; she told me how a Banana Dessert might be prepared with coconut milk.) All children must have rice; it may be prepared with chicken broth; rice noodles and egg noodles are also served. I asked what might be served for break fast, lunch and dinner and this is the menu she gave me: For breakfast: Rice, (not much salt) possibly a fish sauce. In her family they serve bread for breakfast and she says they like coffee os we do. For lunch: Rice again, noodle soup, sometimes Chow Mein. (It seems that their food is similar to Chinese food, sweet and sour dishes.) For the evening meal: Rice, curry or soup. One vegetable dish, fish or meat. (Possibly fried fish or chicken prepared in several ways.) Tnere are usually three dishes for the evening meal. One interesting thing to me was the fact that iced tea is served free of charge at the hotels. We noted too that they dress as wo do, wearing their native Thailand dress for ceremonies I A NEW DAY For Impatient Savers: I I INVESTMENT SAVINGS ACCOUNTS I I Perry's First National Bank offers a I I Passbook Account at 5% per annum.

It’s nice to learn a bit about the customs of other countries, especially since our world is getting small er and smaller with air travel ns it is. We also have two recipes from our country for today’s Nook. One is for Crunchy Cucumber Sticks, this one from Ruth Mc- Kinley Walton and it is marve lous! Ruth brought me a sample to taste, that’s how 1 know. Since cucumbers are so plentiful 1 thought this would be a goodie. The other is a cooling dessert 1 found in my Gourmet and 1 couldn’t resist it for this sum mertime weather. This is “lem ony”, served with melon balls, cool and easy, a good combina tion. Banana Dessert (Thailand) Cook bananas (not too ripe) in a little water, drop a little sugar and salt in water. Boil a little bit. Add coconut milk and bring to a boil.
