But Clinton ‘is not worried about Abbot or the girls either for that matter, for after seeing the rehearsal at Florida Street school where Lake and the girls are practicing a sailor song and dance number, we have agreed that they are all quite enjoying what first appeared to be a local tragedy. Be sure to come out to the Fire men’s big musical comedy, - “The World’s All Right,” and see Lake as Skipper Ericson and his girl assist ants as immaculately-attired Jack Tars.

Printers - Stationers HERE’S a lot more to Easter than displaying' flnery. Take Scotland, (or Instance. Lads and lassies there cavort in an Easter spirit alleged to be typical of their country—at expense to none. They get hard-boiled, dyed eggs (once .fresh, It is hoped) and playfully roll or throw them at each other. And when they are through with their roll ing and throwing, they eat the by- that-tlme-battered remains. But the old-timers In Lancashire, Cheshire, SUflfordshlre and Warwlck- ahira. were different They played s lifting and heaving game. On Easter Monday the men lifted or heaved the women. How far or for what history falls to record. On Faster Tuesday the women, having the last word, lifted or hearisd the meiT AhcT altthis way a very serious matter. To explain the lifting and heaving, the maneuver was performed by two lusty men or women Joining their hands across each other’s wrists. Then, making the person to be heaved sit down on their* arms, they lifted or heaved him aloft two or three times and often carried him several yards In the street, the distance, of course, depending on the avoirdupois X)f the victim, London Tlt-BIts records. \ Even clergymen were unable to escape the heaving or lifting. It so happened a very austere minister was passing through a town In I.ancashlre on an Easter Tuesday. It was all he could do to uphold bis professional dig nity when three or four husky women ran Into bis room, exclaiming they had come “to lift him.” « “To lift me,” repeated the amazed divine. “What can you mean? Is there any such custom here?” "To be sure,” they chorused. “AH us women was lifted yesterday and us lifts the men today In turn.” The reverend traveler. It Is recorded, saved his positRin by bribing them with a half crown and scurrying off on his mission. In Durham bn Easter Monday his tory says the men claimed the privilege of taking off the women’s shoes, and the nezt day > the women came right back In a turn-about*e-falr-play manner.

One of the curioua-customs of the day was that which centered In the distribution of what was known as the Pax or Peace cake. Until very recent times persons who bad quarreled were Ihflted to share such i cake, say “peace and good will” and “make_up.” Priests In England a few generations ago used to make small jeroswa of palms which they gave .to their con gregations. At the shrine of Our Udy, NantswelL Cornwall, the people devel oped s ceremony of dropping thew symbols Into tlm holy well to test their luck—^If the crosses floated, ^ood for tune might be expected; ff they"sank, death and disaster would be forthcom ing. - British sclKwlboys, It Is recorded, long made It a practice to carry blos soming willow branches through towns and villages on Palm Sunday, and even slnc<j the World w'ar ic has been ■ custoiff for liondon residents to visit the country and bring back flowertng boughs on the day of palms. ■ w; ITU EASTER at hand all sorts of alluring gltt suggestions burst forth in early springtime splen dor. This Is the season of the year for surprise presents chosen from the charming array of gift Ideas the beaut/ field offers, says a fashion writer In the New York-Uerald-Tribune. Perfume Is always s delightfully ap propriate present, particularly at this time of tlie year. Resides, the atmos phere of early spring spells enchant ment—a certain new romance lu living, especially Identified with perfumes and spring fragrances. Some alert' perfumers, to' meet, the various holiday requirements, are pre senting bright and decorative Easter, eggs. Cayly colored papier mache “eggs” of red, grcH'n, blue, white and yellow contain one or more attractively decorated bottles. ’ Other firms whose perfumes snUgest “Evening and Springtime In Paris” (certainly quite In kwplng with this April season), also offer Easter egg packages. Tlie.se French perfumes are presented*In egg-shaped containers of SOME LIQUOR BILL COMMENTS Just why should the legislature be allowed to fasten any kind of a liquor dispensing system on any county or municipality by law without giving the county or municipality the right to say whether or not they want a liquor joint? Certain it is that the ^neral assembly should not be al lowed to force liquor joints into coun ties that voted against repeal. > Oh, yes, we’ll live through it.

Dr. J. McD. Richards, president of Columbia 'Dieological seminary, Deca,- tur, Ga., addressed the faculty and student body at the chapel period Fri day morning, giving a short but in spirational treatment of the subject, “The Transforming Power of Jesus Christ.” ' — Dr. Richards tnok his. text from John 1:42, ^phasizing the words of Jesus, “Thou art . . . but thou shall be.” He reminded the hearers how young people dream of and hope for the time when they will change to grown-ups, to independent, intellec tual beings; and of how those who have passed this 8tage__of life look back Knowing that they are then weak when they were once strong, that their golden dreams have already been ful filled, leaving only the end of life to look forward to. j Then the speaker poioted" out tbree. j important facts he drew from his text: 1(1) That Je.sus has the, ability, as shown in the text, to place his fjnger on the weak point in any one’s life 4^* he did in Peter’s. He knew Peter had no dependability about him and he pointed it out. (2) That at the same time Jesus Joseph Morgan Stokes, assistant.^ professor of English at the University of South Carolina and^^Presbyterian College alumnus, has been appointed assistant* professor of English at Wesleyan University in Middletown,. Conn. - Mr. Stokes graduated as valedicto- ‘ riaj)_pf his class at P. (?. in 1926. While here he was editor-in-chief of the Pac- Sac, a member of the Blue Stocking staff and one of the organizers of Chi Tau, the-frateriiity that later be came the present chapter of' Beta Kappa. He was one of the most ver- .satile men that this school has ever .seen. - In, 1926 he returned to P. C. and for one year served as an instructor in mathematics. He then attended Princeton for a year and -went to England from there as a Rhodes Slcholar. He has since returned to England where for a year he diet ad ditional study at Oxford. For the past few years he has been assistant^ro- fe.ssor of Englikh at the Uni>k^ity of South Carolina. We.sleyan is one of the finest schools in the E{^t and Mr. Stokes is to be congratulated on his appointment.
