THAT COAT TAIL POCKET
Fond Recollections Arise When It Is
Discovered For Moderns
A Missouri editor says another
thing: we oldtimers miss is the coat
I tail pocket.
Elderly men used to wear ooats, it
should be understood, which extended
almost to their knees. There was a
slit about eight inches long in the
rear, into the lining of which a pocket
was fashioned. Back there is where
the wearer carried his handkerchief,
which utually was one of those red
bandanas nbout the size of a pillow
-lip.
"*r i* 11. r.ii. j * u ~ A
X ounger ioik were imeu wiui uumration
at the grace with which that
xrticle was extracted and thrilled at
he bugle notes that were blown into
t from time to time. A man whose
;norts could not be heard a block was
lot considered much of a man.
Putting the handkerchief back in
dace required even more skill than
retting it out. Lt was done, however,
iy a single backward swing of the
iand, a feat that would e our
oodern magicians turn Screen with
nvy.
If Hollywood could locate an old
timer ayi have him reproduce this
feat?enort and all?for the films it
would fill modern man with amazement.
Ix)ve At a Price
Putinar sn intense love scene in the
rr.-vies. when the hero was doinff his
s'uff, wifie nudged hubby and an id:
"Why is it that y<>u never make
love to me like that?"
"Say." he replied, 'Mo you know the
salary that guy frets for doing that?"
.11 ST I'KOPFK
IT the Franklin I>. Itooscvolts are
anything, they arc just plain people
like the rest of us. One can understand
why they would be plain people
here among' us plain people, but the
significant thing is that they were
just plain people when the celeibnities
of Europe visited them recently. The
Charlotte Observer tells how they
acted as follows:
Noticed the "informality" established
at the White House by the
Roosevelte ? It is of a nature that is
becoming the talk of the country, having
been in particular evidence on the
occasrion of the visit of Minister MacDonaJd
and his daughter, and but
little less so in the case of the visit of
the distinguished Frenchman. It was
the 'presence of the daughter that
gave the Mistress of the White House
her opportunity. It was the presence
of Mr. Herriot that gave the President
his chance, for he essayed to
play his French against that of the
native statesman. The newspaper
boys gathered around the room in
which the talk was going on, asked
the President to get from Mr. Herriotanswer
to their questions as to
whether he would make a certain
statement. The President parley/oued
for a moment with the visitor
and then informed the press people, j
with his usual smile, that Herriot had
said "no."
Then we come to the domestic incidents.
The Prime Minister of England,
with Ihis daughter, sat down to
the table for "supper"?not "dinner,",
mark you?at the White nouse, Sunday
night. .For this supper, Mrs.
Franklin D. Roosevelt, wife of the
President of the* United States,
scrambled the eggs. It has been the J
custom of the Roosevelts for the pastj
20 years to have scrambled eggs for i
supper on Sunday nights, and they I
were not at all abashed at the presence
of guests so distinguished as the
Prime Minister of England and his j
daughter. And who can doubt that;
these distinguished guests enjoyed it j
all the more? Old customs at the j
White House have been entirely altered
under the Roosevelts, to establish,
for a fact, of a more thoroughly f
democratic atmosphere. Mrs. Roo.se- i
velt, for instance, not only showed the,
Prime Minister's daughter how to j
cook, but how to knit. That is White* i
House entertainment after the American
heart.?The Marshville Home.
Scarecrow's Suits
Difficult To Keep
Mount Pleasant, May 7.?These are
hard times for the scarecrows.
A farmer on route 40, near here,
started his scarecrow off for the
season with a full suit of clothes and
hat. Then a man living nearby got
permission to "swap" with the figure
in the field.
A second man came along, looked
over his garments, and traded again
with the scarecrow. The farmer
hasn't objected so far, because the
figure is weirder than it used to be, Jbut
he will not permit it to end the
season in a barrel.
Meeting of Missionary Society
Mrs. Carroll DesOhamps was hostess
on Tuesday afternoon to the
Sophie Zemp Circle of the Lyttleton
Street Methodrist church's missionary
society. The program was in charge
of Mrs. Avery Reasonover with Mrs.
,S. C. Zemp and Mr9. B. W. Marshall,
circle leader assisting. Dr. C.^ P.
Wimberly was a guesrt of the circle.
An interesting feature of the afternoon
was a plant sale in which all
present participated and quite a neat
sum was realised from the sal^ of
ferns, begonias, cactus and other
garden and pot plants.
Afiter the business hour was over
the two attractive little daughters of
the hostess served delicious refreshments
to the fifteen members of the
circle who were present. The June
meeting will be held at the home of
Mrs. N. C. Amett, with Miss Minnie
Clyburn as assistant hostess. At *
that time a White Elephant Sale will
be conducted.
A Chicago lumber company last
Tuesday announced an inoreaise in
the price of maple Ijxmber of $3 per
thousand. The company reports
sales 28 per cent ahead of those of a
year ago.
The nation's public debt hAs increased
$3,000,000,000 in the last
year. On April 1 it stood at $21,4414300,176,
compared with $18,606,095/430
