The public will please take notice
that Herald employees are not allow-'
ed to sell, lend or give away copies
of The Herald until Thursday morn-'
ing of each week. The Herald is print- ,
ed Wednesday nights and the papers
do not reach the subscribers until
Thursday morning when the mail is
distributed. It would be manifestly,
unfair to regular subscribers to per-1
mit persons to get copies of the paper |
before they are delivered to regular!
subscribers and all employees in Thej
Herald office are warned against let-!
ting the papers out before they are
placed in the postoffice. Many applications
for papers are received on
Wednesday nights and some of the'
applicants think hard of an employee |
Decause be will not break the bffice
rule for his especial benefit. But
the employee has strict orders against
nermitting papers to leave the office
n<l we trust the public will not embarrass
him by insisting that he violate
the office rule.

had found 'that all the boll weevils In
this section are females, and he was
on his way to Georgia to catch and

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,

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. A ,
church should consider itself fortunate
indeed to have a man like Bro.
Reeves conduct n meeting for them.

him. Everybody invited to come and,

Color Suggestions. 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

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.
