Entertainment, enjoyment, and relaxation are provided by formal social club banouets. During the colonial period, the found· ing fathers often lived in stockaded villages for protection. As the frontier ·receded, the settlers continued to live in communities to enjoy the association of their fellow man. The town meeting became the center of . activity in each village and many New England towns still have regular town meetings. One of the outstanding features of Harding is the opportunity it affords young people to associate with fellow stu· dents from all parts of this country and sev· eral foreign countries. In order to facilitate a wholesome social life, a number of social clubs have been organized. Planning for banquets, outings and other club activities in these small groups helps the student de· velop cooperative attitudes . and leadership abili ties. Such associations aid in develop' ing well·adjusted personalities. 9
