The Torn Sheet *
Where it the fortunate individual
who has not known the "tearer" by
nitfht cj< a sheet? If there are any
Much Ittcky ones this ia not written
for them, J>ut for those who have
suffered.
We have gone to bed weary in mind
-and body, hoping for a restful and
refreshing sleep, when lo! a toe
comes in contact with a tiny r?nt,
wife has overlooked.
So small the hole, just big enough
for the said toe to get through which
jt promptly does. We give a twist
which causes the foot to be entrapped.
Then with a pull, a kick, a tear, a
swear, the hole is now big enough
for" your whole self to go through.
After hours of wrestling, you succeed
in finding one half around your
neck?the other half cannot be located
until dawn of day., A wiley
devil a torn is. Even on a cold
winter's night a torn sheet makes one
quite hot, though in the neck.
But my fellow sufferers, the nights
of your anguish Is a thing of the
past for now when that tiny tear
comes wifd not "rights" it but "Rita"
it into many and gay colors and
"hooks"- it into a beautiful rug to
adorn the colonial bed room. Irs a
fad now, and the best en<f of a Bheet.
The torn sheet has come into its own
after much abuse.
Moral: Be patient when you are ill
treated and evil is said about you
and your day to be glorified will
come. ?A.B.W.

p|Cupid l^Te-Dat*.
L In spite of the warring elements a
full house greeted the local talent
that prevented the musical comedy,
"Cupid Up-To-Date", given under the
auspice* of the American . Legion
Auxiliary. It was perhaps the best,
most pleasing and delightful entertainment
that has been presented on
the Camdea stage for a long time.
The costumes were pew, the idea original,
the songs and dancing bright and
catchy.
Miss Katie Shannon was adorable
a? Dah Cupid and the opening scene
with the Charleston Babies was alone
worth the price of admissiou. They
were: Betty W'hitaker, Anne Whitaker,
Lois Rhame, Faye Williamson,
Marjorie DeLoach, Jeanne Van Landingham,
Margaret Osborne, Francis
Baruch.
The Fairies that came from .Mars
lent their presence to brighten a
neighboring planet. They were: Caroline
Nicholson, Catherine , Boyd,
Jeanne Van Landingham, Margaret
Osborne.
The Bed Time Children, Sarah Bissell^
Mary M(/ooten, Caroline Rowan,
Dorothy Van Landingham, were charming
in their naturalness. ;
The Stars, Lenora Rhame, Olive
Nettles, Marie Hatie,.and Genevieve
Moseley twinkled brightly.
The Catrf, Charlotte Brown, Francis
McLeod, Elizabeth Haynesworth,
Rosa Lee Moor$ gave an unusual
amount of fun to the atjhAlgn^e. .
The chorus girls, always a popular
addition to a show, were extremely so
on tnis occasion. They were: Misses
Elizabeth . Lewis, Francis Bissell,
Dorothy Zemp, Jess L. Campbell,
Laurie Campbell, ^Louise Watts, Ellene
Lewis and Yvonne Page, the last
two traveling with the directress.
Mr. Ira Dixon as usual brought
down the house with a feminine im?
personation, song and dance.
In the cast were Mr. Bennie Smith,
Miss Margaret Chewning, Miss Katie
Shannon, Mr. Clarkson Rhame, Miss
Virginia King, Mrs. Hobsort Milton.
Mr. Joe McKain, Mrs. Bennie Smith,
Mrs. Wylie Sheorn, Mr. Basil Bruce,
Miss Sara Myers, Mr. - Christopher
Vaughn. All acquitted themselves
with credit and we regret that we
haven't time to mention several of
them in a.more personal way.
Mrs. James Candy and Miss Sara
Campbell presided at the piano' and
George Coleman with his "Saucy
Seven" furnished good music. Altogether
it was a pleasing, charming
and delightful entertainmeut and Mrs.
Robert Chewning, president of the
Auxiliary is to be congratulated upon
its "Ytll round success. She is a wide
awake president and the auxiliary
seems to be going forward by leaps
and bounds. All who are eligible
should esteem it a privilege to Join.
Now is the time to preserve the records
and history of the World war.
We wish for the American Legion
auxiliary Continued success.
