EASE IS THE DOMINANT STYLE NOTE r w. H. Dies Near Laurens v There has never been a time f-when men’s clothes were more ’Sensible than they are for spring ^ind summer 1924; or better looking. These facts are worth telling tind they’re worth reading. The new styles fit easily and hang informally. They’re not c hoose or baggy; they haye a little • more room than clothes of pre vious seasons. * The whole idea is relaxation; the coats look relaxed—not snug or stiff; they feel relaxed; the trousers are wider and more comfortable. 1 Men look better in such clothes because they seem to be so completely at ease and so un conscious of their clothes. . The clothes wear better be cause there isn’t so much strain on them—they drape over the figure; they don’t hug it as pre vious styles have. At the left is shown an easy- fitting three-button type which is the- correct thing anywhere. At the right is the more ex treme straight hanging style that is a favorite with the men in the more exclusive colleges. P MISSOURIANS I THINK OF REED «(From the Asheville Citizen) ■ Mr. C. L. Edwards of Neosho, Mo., sends The Citizen an editorial frota the Joplin Globe which asks Sehator Reed some embarrassing questions—or they should embarrass him. Mr. Edwards believes that there may be Deipocrats in this part of the country who will be interested in what his Missouri newspaper says about the senator, now that he has * " » sorted his campaign for the Demo cratic nomination. There are few R^ed supporters in these parts, but the Reed record as here set forth is good reading for all Democrats while they are considering qualifications ^id past performances in men who seek the presidency. The Globe’s Questions are, in part, as follows: “Was your activity in 1920, when you took the stump against the Lea gue of Nations, helpful to the Demo cratic party which was espousing the Ifeegue? “Is it true that you hated Woodrow Wilson and fought him to the utmost of your ability until he would not willingly ever again have any asso ciation with you? “Is it true that you attacked Wood- row Wilson so viciously in a speech before the Missouri legislature on March 1£, 1919, that on tlg^ow- ing day fifty of the sixty-seven Dem ocrats in that body met and adopted a resolution calling upon you to re sign and deploring the fact that Mis souri should have in the senate ‘a man who consistently and persistent ly for the past two years attempted to thwart and defeat the purpose of President Wilson, not only in mat ters of peace but in matters of war ? ’ “Is it true that on January 14, 1920, the woman’s Democratic state committee of Missouri adopted a res olution condemning you? “Is it true that Democratic county convention after convention through out the state that year condemned you as a traitor to your party? “Is it true that you were con demned by the state Democratic con vention at Joplin? “Is it true that you, a United States senator, were denied a delegateship to the national Democratic conven tion at San Francisco?” The Globe also inquires of the senator if it is not true, “as the Mis- Telling: Your Fortune Man strains eyesockets trying to look into the future. Man is self- centered and selfish, hoping that his glimpse of things to be will give him advantage over his fellowmen. “Eyes but cannot .see” was truly written. All existence has been a living example of how to kno^r the future. Still the multitudes follow will-o’- wisp ideas and waste life in an ef fort to know in advance of things to When man finally learns that Su preme Power is not earthly; that it cannot and will not be swayed by human wish or thought, then man will quit striving for selfish advan tage—and find happiness, health, success, peace and plenty. “Christianity,” you say. Then we ask: “What is Christianity?” But your interpretations are narrow, big oted and selfish. * ' Christianity is expressed in your every thought, word and act of your life every day and night. If every thought, word and act expresses LOVE for your fellowman—then you are a Christian. Otherwise you can not make claim. It is the story of the ages. Men inspired, men with vision, men with courage, have risen above the hordes throughout existence by partially living to this rule of life. They could look into the future—and they saw that they need not expect more from life than they put into it. The short cut to peace, happiness, health and success is not in know ing the future but in starting today to make every thought, act and word unselfish and LOVELY. By so living, no matter who or what you are, the reward is assur ed and positive. God is no respecter of persons. Live in that confidence— and your future will unfold bigge? and better than any human seer could foretell. Laurens, March 11.—Wade H.

And the right way to get the greatest amount of Accessary information is to read the newspaper advertisements. Newspaper advertisements tell you what is new and good iu merchandise. They reveal improvements and inventions that make your home life easier, more comfortable and more convenient. They give yo uinformation about a thousand and one things that are useful and interesting. Every manager of a household—every member of the house hold who shares the responsibility for the family’s welfare— should make a practice of reading the newspaper advertisements. They are daily lessons in economy. * w 'I'/oii HeedTlot^taL »u-..:x-V# . . ... , ■ iiBy WHIT HAP1LE This is the story of Rose W. Smith and her husband, George, who arrived at that point in life when something radical had to be done to provide a living for three children and their dependent aged mothers. They oWned a small farm near Lexington, Mass., but taxes were high and the farm so un developed that it was a burden rather than an asset. George was employed as a clerk in a Boston broker’s office at small _ pay, and his wife, Rose, was in failing health. Sitting on the* back porch one afternoon, Mrs. Smith noticed scores of golden butterflies flitting over a garden patch. An idea came to her that butterfly wings when arranged artistically under glass in the form of watch pen dants, trays, glass covers to toilet articles and the like would be novel and beautiful, and straightway she set forth to capture butterflies. Be fore sundown she had fifty of them, of all colors and hues. The bodies she cast away, substituting ones of pasteboard. The following day an abandoned room had been turned into a studio.' < A trip to manufacturers in Bos ton, Taunton and Brattleboro con vinced her that jobbers would “take on” butterfly novelties as a side line. She learned, too, that a great variety of exquisite butter flies could be purchased from New York collectors at small cost which saved her the daily hunt in the fields. All that was ten years ago. The abandoned room has giwn way to a $7,000 modern studio. They own and operate two huge stores; one in Lexington and an other in Arlington. They employ two score clerks. They own their farm and numerous cottages, main tain two expensive automobiles and employ trained nurses to attend their aged parents. A simple beginning but a great nn/iino- . V* «.* M V?
