HWkLD. DILLON, BOOTH CABOLIN i Auk llewHNw for Double Sessions. i To the Editor of the Dillon Herald: < Please sir, allow me space in your i columns to make an inquiry. I want to ask the public in general 1 of the Dillon Graded School District if there is one single good reason s why we should have the two session I per day system here. 1 have talked i about this thing to different people fot the past two years and 1 have ' never found but one tnan in the town ' of Dillon who favored the two ses- 1 siou system. He was a man who had 1 grown children in the High School grades. Possibly there is some reason 1 in favor of the system for the High ' School grades. ,1 But what is the rhyme or reason 1 for children in the second grade to go 1 to the school house and cross the Coast Line death trap four times a ' day? For that matter what is the 1 rhyme or reason for any children un- r der the 6th grade to cross the railroad four times a day? I have never heard a teacher favor the plan, and I have never heard of any parents of the children under the z sixth grade who favored it. s I taught school myself four years f and I know that any teacher is ab- c solutely exhausted by 2:30 o'clock, \ and work they do after that can I oe no good. , a If we need more teachers, we should h get them. The fact that we keep o teachers at the school house an un- (S reasonable number of hours does not ti means that they can do the work; no d one can work at anything if they * are exhausted. ' One dozen children under the charge of any business man of the town of Dillon after two hours would utterly unnerve and exhaust him.'j Why then expect a teacher to be sn- i perhuntan? The mind cannot work f but a certain length of time and ti when exhausted cannot go any fur- i ther. I a But as for the small children un- i der the sixth grade as aforesaid their r studies are not such as that it is nec- t essary for them to stay there the a lengh of time required. |t The idea of my little girl seven ? years old or any other little girl sev-' pn years old crossing that railroad! tour times a day is absurd, and is' foi^absolutely no purpose except toj maintain the two session day princi-;^ pie. For children of that age to come) home for 30 minutes and to ro back to spend one more hour at the school house is unreasonable. I But the main thing in my mind is, s no one defends the system, no one [ wants it, no mother especially wants i ii niui i Know 01; and wny snouin i the system be maintained? As afore- ? said, I want someone who does favor 1 it to tell me why. f Very trulv, JOE P. LANE. I s o ; j Revival Meeting. 1 Rev. E. D. Reeves of Roanoke, Va., c assistant general superintendent of r the Pentaoostal Holiness church, God willing, will begin a revival meeting r at Lake View, October 20th, 1921.

Warm colors! should be used with warm colors, cooli with cool, (Warm colors are yellow, yellow-orange, orange, red-orange, red, red-violet, and violet. Cool col-! ors are green, blue green, blue, blue-! violet.) 0<vl/\vn ii nit n 11 if in t r\ m Aat vuiui o unuan; i/cvuniiuft iw luwOL people are: Black, dark blue, dark; blue green, dull violet, dark green' burgundy, and brown. In fact most colors are becommlng to most people provided the colors are low enough in value and intensity, that is dark enough and grey enough. Colon which are often difficult to wear are: Violet, except in low values, orange, bright blue, and tan. Sallow people should avoid unrelieved black, using black only in combination with Borne color or with v hlte. The following colors are likely to prove becoming: dull blue, old blue, yellowish pink, warm grey with a touch of bright color, and red if sufficiently greyed and Ark enough. Blond people with golden hair fair skin, and blue eyes should avoid crude; colors. Very dark or-very light colors, I though not at all greyed, may be sat-| isfactory. Black, blue with gold (a greyed orange which is the comple-j nient of blue), and a warm grey with j dull rose are good combinations for> people of this type. I People with sandy hair and lighe brown eye lashes should wear colors as navy blue, brown, or black for the sake of contrast. Red-haired people can wear tan. I ecru and brown. If the skin is very white, they can wear warm grey,1 olive, sage, and apple green some-, what greyed. Blues, except for the very dark red haired person should be avoided unless the hair is auburn and can stand having the color Intensifies its complement, orange. Colors may be used in hats, occasionally, which would be unbecoming in dresses, as the hair between the face and hat makes a decided difference in the becomingness of a color. Usually, a pleasing effect is obtained when there is a contrast in value between the color of the hair and the hat. Suggestions for Becoming Shapes?' Millinery.?People with large fea-i tures should wear large, not small ' hats. If one has a large nose, the mass of the trimming should be at the front j of the hat. People with square faces should wear hats having broken lines, not' brims with straight, hard lines. The silhouette should always be considered. Hats which are beoomlng &, THURSDAY >IOUMX<i, KKPTKX to the face are not always good when the relation to the entire figure is considered. For example, a small hot on a very large person or a very large hat on a very small person destroys the balance of the entire figure. People with turned up noses should pivoid narrow hats which droop over the fuce. Those which have slightly rolling brims are usually becoming. Thin faces look longer and thinner f the hats have high pointed tritnning. Those which tilt slightly forward and have wide brims are usually >eeoining. Trimming is usually placed at the eft side. Style may vary this and i< s not an arbitrary rule as the hat nay be more becoming if it is tritnned on the righT side or at some other >laee on the hat Hound hats are not becoming to ound faces. Round faces may folow the rules for square ones in most aspects. o Dog Pioves Hero. Dunn, X.
