There were covers placed for twenty-four rgueBts. 1 Mr. and Mrs. Ravage have left on a trip to Northern cities and they will be at home in Camden after the first of September. The Anderson-Savage engagement was announced last May and since then, because of the social prominence and popularity of the bride and bridegroom, plans for the wedding ha^e been awaited with interest. I Mrs. Savage has been one of the most admired girls in the state, and her beauty and vivacity have made her a favorite at Converse college, ( where she was voted the most beautiful girl in 1928, and in Columbia, where she has attended the dances, and other affairs. The bride is a graduate of Converse, class of 1928, and while there she took a prominent part in all college activities, became a member of the B. A. T. club and of the Alpha Sigma honorary sorority.

Mrs. Simon's son, Manning, is taking a post graduate course at the University this year. , WANTS PUPILS TO KISG1STKK On Thursday and Friday Preceding Opening Dute of School. In order to have more time to aid Pupils in the selection of their courses mi to avoid the tiresome waiting for registration caused- by the congestion when all pupils register on the first day of school, it has been decided to have the high school pupils report for registration on Thursday and Friday of the week preceding tinof school, according to an announcement issued Thursday by J. Ci. Hichards, superintendent, and L. W. McFadden, principal, of the Camden City schools. The schedule for registration will' be as follows: Thursday, September 6, 9 a.m.? Registration of eighth grade pupils. Thursday, September 5, 11:00 a.m. Registration of ninth grade pupils. Thursday, September 5, 2:30 p.m.? Registration of tenth grade pupil.).' Fiiday, September 6, 9:00 a.m.?All pupils who live outside the city and who have not found it convenient to register on Thursday will report at this hour for registration. This provision is made primarily for the con- j venicnce of the pupils who come to school on buses. Other pupils who live outside the city, but who have private means of getting to school should, if possible, report at the reg ular time fpr the registration of their classes. _ Friday, September 6, 12:00 noon? Registration of 11th grade pupils. I All pupils should plan to register at the scheduled hour, for there may be serious disadvantages in late registration. For instance, many of our1 courses are elective and these classes ] ! may be filled to capacity before the first day of school, thereby depriving the ones who register late of a wide range of selection. Further, we plan to place in operation on the first day , of school our permanent schedule for classes and the pupil registering late is likely to have difficulty in getting his desired subjects fitted into this schedule, whereas if we know his desires in time there is a greater possibility of arranging the schedule to accommodate his selected subjects. (Pupils will be excused from school ; immediately after registration. I Mrs. Hay Was Hostess 1 The Wednesday afternoon bridge club was charmingly entertained this week by Mrs. Thomwell Hay at her hdme at Boykin. Besides the regular club members Mrs. Boykin also had as her guests Mrs. Withers Trotter and Mrs. Hubert Wilson. The prize was won by Mrs. Trotter.
