On Your Next Paint Job TRY Atheys R. M. LOMINACK Hardware It’s “back-to-schoql” for many young girls of the city of college age. Trunks are being re-packed, books gathered, and everything made ready for the new session. Most of the girls are leaving the city this week. Mary Elizabeth Moore and Jean Wood have returned to the A. R. P. college, Erskine, at Due West. Both are dignified seniors. Virginia Anderson leaver soon for Lander at Greenwood where she will be a se cond year student. Lalla Rook John stone will resume her studies at Ran- dolph-Macon. Mary Johnson begins her second year at Coker in Hartes- ville. The largest group from here goes to Winthrop.

Surprise Marriage A delightful surprise of last week end was the announcement of Kath ryn Bigby’s marriage to N. B. Bro ward of Tampa, Fla. The marriage took place Saturday, September 2, in Conway and the couple are making their home in Raleigh, N. C. Kathryn is the youngest daughter of Dr. H. M. Bigby and Mrs. Bigby of East Main street. She attended Newberry college and a Charleston business school. She worked a while in Charleston but for the past six months has been connected with the Superior Art company first being located at Lynchburg, Va., and later in Florida. Mr. Broward has been connected with the Superior Art company for the past five years. The company headquarters are in Raleigh. Mr. and Mrs. Broward plan to visit in the city soon. A Movie Colony? If you can’t attend the movies, perhaps you can have Fulmer Wells bring the movies to you. He’s very accommodating that way. The Walt Disney short, “Ferdinand the Bull”, which has benn given so much publi city, was showing here recently. Mrs. Charles Trabert had been looking for ward for some time to seeing it but having been confined to her bed for several weeks she was unable to go, even in an ambulance. Rather than see her disappointed Fulmer arrang ed to have the picture shown at her house. He called upon the city’s number one public speaker, Dude Epting, to carry out the lilies .(Can't you just hear Dude relating how Fer dinand would sit under the tree all day long and smell flowers?) The college French professor went to the theatre to see the short several times, then purchased a book of Ferdinand the Bull, and after practice with the picture he was all ready. And we hear that Mrs. Trabert was very much pleased with the result and en joyed it all thoroughly. How we ■would like to have heard it! We will always hold a grudge against Fulmer for not letting us know what was coming off. According to our way of thinking the only thing lacking was the musical effect that could have been so capably furnished by- Chris Kaufmann’s orchestra. Perhaps Ful mer, Dude, and Chris under Wright Cannon’s directing could turn New berry into another movie colony. Women Hear Pope Members of the Jasper Chapter D. A. R., report their first meeting of the season held last Friday to be one of the most successful in ages. It seems that the members were de lighted with the principle speaker of the afternoon, Representative Thomas H. Pope, who spoke on the Constitu tion.

During the business session an annuoncement was made concerning the district D. A. R. meet to be held in Trenton, October 4. The hostesses served sandwiches and tea after the program.

SMART, SLENDERIZING You can make the sleeves in! above—elbow length, for right now, I and also in three-quarter modified bishop style, for later on. The lines of 8550 are very becom ing to large figures, because the paneled skirt is slim at the waist, cut high and fitted. The bodice fits beautifully because it is gathered, above and below, to create comfortable, becoming bust- fullness. An edging of lace or braid trims it up, without adding any hint of fussiness. This is a pretty style for cottons like linen and gingham, for silks like flat crepe or small, figured print, and will be lovely in thin wool for Fall. Pattern 8551—The deep armholes and the unbelted, easy waistline make this dress very cool and easy to work in—and it’s such a pretty thing! The exaggerated flare of the skirt is not only helpful when you are hurrying through a busy day, but also, it is extremely attractive to be hold. The puff sleeves, the scalloped neckline and the touches of braid make you look bright and pretty.
