There was only one thing to do—pull the skirts down—and they did it as fast as they could. That’s the real story of the long skirt.” American women, said the Baron, are wearing their clothes these days with as much dash ancf distinction as any women in the world. ' Is the new silhouette tending to ward the hobble skirt?" "No," he said, “women, with the active life they lead today, couldn’t tolerate it, and the dressmakers aren’t foolish enough to try to foist it on them." Baron de Meyer described the well dressed woman as one who spends hours assembling her costumes and then tosses them on in a way to achieve an effect so careless that it looks as though she hadn’t spent any time on her clothes at all. Hi^h School Boys , Lose Two Gaines BIRTHDAY DINNER AT GOLDVILLE On last Sunday, Mrs. E. L. Thomas of Goldville, celebrated her birthday by inviting her children and a few friends to dinner.

Mebane of Ashe ville, have returned to their home af ter a visit to Miss Florrie Burdette. WHY SKIRTS ARE LONG SL'l FRONTIS Jewelry Store Clinton, S. C. New York, April 17.—Wojnen’s legs are responsible for the long skirts they’re trailing around today, in the opinion of Baron de Meyer, interna tional style expert and widely known fashion writer. ‘‘Women have advanced a great many reasons for those long skirts, but the real reason lies in their own legs," said Baron de Meyer, who has just returned to America after mak ing a visit to the leading dress-mak ing salons of Paris. ‘‘When the couturiers saw what hor rible sights were revealed in bony kneesland that ugly line at 'the top Beaten In Court Heflin To Carry Fight To Voters Washington, April 18. — Deprived of a place on the Elemocratic ticket be cause of his failure to support Alfred E. Smith’s presidential candidacy. Senator Heflin of Alabama, is going on the stump next week in Alabama to appeal to the voters for renomina tion as a Democrat. The decision yesterday of the state supreme court upholding the ruling of the Democratic ^ state committee barring candidates from the party pri mary who failed to support the Smith ticket Smaller Portions To he sure, cream soups are served occasionally as the first course at din ner. But they are delicately made and they are served in small portions. A small bouillon cup not more than two- thirds full of cream mushroom soup iV^ indeed a tempting dinner dish—a dish that makes the appetite crave more food instead of satisfying it. Cream celery soup, cream chicken soup, cream tomato soup—never very thick, never served in abundance, clev erly flavored, served hot; these are all delicious soups for dinner. A big dish of cream celery soup with croutons, served with celery and olives, follow ed by a meal including fricasee chick en, bominy, sweet potatoes and cot tage pudding would be impossible. But a small cup of cream celery soup, fol lowed by a meal including roast chick en with hominy and green beans, and a gelatine or fruit dessert is jquite an other matter. Last Fnday the Clinton boys lost to Laurens high hasc-oall team by a score of 12 to 4, in a rathen loosely played game, both teams making sev eral errocB. The entire game was played in tl^e rain.

They consti tutes the supreme court of the Demo cratic party in Alabama, and I shall take the case to them confident of success.” Two other candidates have an nounced already for the Democratic senatorial nomination at the Alabama primary to be held early next month and Heflin’s determination to get it in the face of the refusal to place his name on the ticket assumes a bitter contest. % Heflin said he would go to Alabama within a few days but he added that prior to his departure he intended to have something to say on his case in the Af( . , A 1 = Phillips in Race =1 In Ward Six For Children’s Parties A large freezer full of plaia home made vanilla ice cream and good plain sponge cake constitutes the moat gen erally acceptable"" refrCTlmreiTrs ttimt you could offer to the little guests at your children’s party. ’ Summer is a far better time than winter to give a children’s party if you live 'in the country or suburbs, because you can give^t outdoors. Few houses are large enough for a dozen or so eager, exuberant children at a party. It is far better to give children too simple refreshments than too elabor ate. And better to have them go home wishing they had had more than with .api^ite impaired for a day or so. ‘ For some reason or other lemonade ii| the usual summer beverage and ice cream the usual summer refreshm —yet the two are not very icompa ible. Of course, children become thirs ty, so be ready with cold water and glasses not ice water nor your best tumblers. In sending out invitations to a chil dren’s party or giving telephoned in vitations be explicit as to the time for the party. Half past three or half past five are good hours, because that does not interfere with nap time or with supper. A really sensible idea is to have a chldren’s party including sypper. Th^ | it may extend to six or half ^asl. 'Tbl serve refreshments at five is, of | course, to rob a child of any desire for i his milk supper when he goes home. I !

There are two good ways to scallop potatoes. One is to slice them raw and put them in a buttered baking dish with a little flour sprinkled between the layers. Then season them with salt and pep per and butter, and cover them with milk. Cook them rather slowly for an hour in the oven—or until the po tatoes are done. The other way of scalloping them is to boil them and let them cool, then chop them or cut them into small dice, put in a buttered dish, cover with milk, season well and bake slowly un til they are rich and creamy and brown on ttop. Creamed potatoes are also good made of old ones. Again there are sev eral ways of‘cooking them. One is to make a good cream sauce and heat the diced or sliced potatoes in the sauce. Another is to dice the potatoes, roll them in flour, and then heat in a dou ble boiler in milk to cover them. The flour thickens the milk% Both sorts should be well seasoned.
