Pitts St. Telephone 833-1028 Today, on many a meticulous Bride’s table, we find a daintily tashioned “ slipper’ made of china or glass. It is usually filled with party mints. Lovely, charming, innocent symbol! Once, however, a common ordinary shoe had the most powerful meaning in the affairs of men. Opinion differs among scho lars, however, the greater num ber assure us that the “casting of a shoe* represented a change of authority in past time. This could relate to persons or pro perty, and was true among the ancient Assyrians, Egyptians and Hebrews. “Upon the land of Edom do I cast my shoe*. (Ninth Psaim) In the folk customs applying to ’Brides’, it has meant exactly this. In the marriage ceremony itself, the father gives his daugh ter to be wed to the groom. Lit erally, he transfershis responsi bility for her life and well being to her husband. In old Wales, it was the custom for the father to give his new son-in-law a shoe. The future groom delivered his Bride a “tap or blow on the head with the given shoe*. He was her master now! If you wish your Wedding to have authority -- then Dillard Bolafld Jewelers are here to as sist you. We enjoy all of the “fotmalities’ which make your Wedding a ceremony!

Dear Sally About People You Know BY SALLY SHAW DEAR SALLY: A certain good- looking boy I had been dating re gularly has stopped calling me because a certain loose-Upped, evil-minded girl told him some terrible things about me that were absolutely untrue. Three other girls I loiow have told me that “loose-lip* did the same thing to them. So, is there anything I can do about her, or about get ting back into this boy’s good graces 0 FALSELY ACCUSED. DEAR FALSELY ACCUSED; Do you REALLY want to get back into the “good graces’ of a boy who was so quick to believe a malicious tale about you, who showed so little faith in you 0 I think you’re lucky to be rid of him. But if you still want to set things right with him, confront him in the company of one or two of those other maligned victims, and PROVE to him how hasty he was in his judgment. DEAR SALLY: I’m a young married woman of 27. Recently my husband, who is a junior exe cutive in his company, acquired a new boss -- a fat, bald, 50- , year-old guy who fancies him-’ self a lady-killer, and seems constantly to direct his “talents’ at me. At company dinners, pic nics, parties, and other social events, he hovers around me and annoys and embarrasses me no end with his leers and wolfish tactis. My good husband of course is aware of this, but neither he nor I can come up with a good solution -- a solu tion, that is, that won’t jeopard ize my husband’s career. Have you any advice to offer me? TARGET. DEAR TARGET: About all I can suggest, under the circum stances, is that you make extra efforts to avoid ever being cor nered alone with the fresh old goat. An amused and pleasantly formal politeness, mixed with an occasional *Oh, get along with you,* is often a big help, too, in dampening the ardor of a would-be Casanova. DEAR SALLY; My wife (we’ve Ijeen married only five months) keeps complaining that I don’t shave often enough, and that my beard grates her skin when I kiss her and makes it raw and sensitive. I’ll admit that I have one of those heavy, dark beards on which the customary morning shave lasts only until about three or four in the afternoon, but don’t you think it’s asking too much of any man to shave TWICE a day? TOM. DEAR TOM: Depends on how considerate that man is, how much he thinks of the wife who has registered the complaint, We Appreciate :* Your making us the number one dealer in ; .this area. We sell more ’cause we sell for -' leas, and because we feel a satisfied cus- : tomer is the most important friend we could ;Lhave. » ’'T; If You Can't Trade With Cooper —You Just Can’t Trade LYNN COOPER, Inc 302 E. Main St. 833-1741 “Your Volume Dealer” and also how much he thinks of his own personal appearance. Really now, one extra little ses sion with your razor isn’t all that trouble, is it? DEAR SALLY: I’m a girl of 16, and very much burned-up tonight! A certain boy I thought I liked had the nerve to stop me on the street today and say, “You’re not a bad looking girl, but you’d look a lot better if you quit coloring your hair and using all that gooey stuff around your eyes." Don’t you think this was exceedingly tactless and ill- mannered on this boy’s part 0 TEEN’S. DEAR TEEN’S: Well, maybe the boy WAS tactless and ill- mannered -- but on the other hand, are you SURE you wouldn’t look better if you stopped color ing your hair and making up your eyes so heavily 0 Just could be the boy was doing you a big favor.
