THE NEWBERRY SUN
The juice of one lemon in a cup of
hot water taken every morning be
fore breakfast is a splendid toner-up
per—unless of course you happen to
be allergic to c-trus fruits. In that
event, try a cup of plain hot water.

It’s simply uncanny—this Septem
ber weather. For a few days the ther
mometer soars four or five points
over the century mark. The follow
ing days finds the mercury dropping
way below 100. What’s it all about?
Shall I wear my voile tomorrow or
will I need a sweater or coat * It
seems the weather man is up to his
tricks again. But at this writing the
weather is deliciously cool and the
feeling is widespread that fall is here
again. Already we’re looking for
leaves to turn and thinking it will
soon be time to make that autumn
trip to the mountains. But you just
can’t plan ahead of time. And pel -
haps you had better keep the oil
swim suit out a few days. There js
likely to be weather for at least a
couple more dips in the country club
pool.
Dancing Feet
Mrs. Richard Baker who has so
sucessfully taught dancing to large
numbers of boys and girls of the city
in the past nine years, has turned
over her studio this session to Mr.
and Mrs. Lanneau Foster, directors
of the Foster School of Dance, from
Columbia. The Fosters, who manage
six branch studios, study each sum
mer under some of the world’s great-
et dancing artists. Their talent and
skill will mean a great deal to the
students studying under them. Class
es are held each Monday and Thurs
day afternoon at the Baker dance
studio. Those desiring to take danc
ing who did not register at the open
ing last Friday may do so on either
class day. We hear that the Fosters
plan a gala recital at the end of their
year. Even though turning over her
studio to the Columbia instructors,
Mrs. Baker plans to conduct a four-
months ballroom-dancing class begin
ning the first of October. This class
which is more or less a Friday nig'ht
social gathering for members of the
younger set has proved very popular
in the past. Mrs. Baker is a compe
tent ballroom-dancing teacher, hav
ing studied for several years under
the most-famed ballroom-dancing
teacher in the U. S., Evelyn Hubbell,
onetime co-worker with Vernon and
Irene Castle. By the way of a P. S.
you may have noted in a recent issue
of Life the three-page article, “Life
goes to a Children’s Dancing Class.”
Pictures were shown of Evelyn Hub-
bell teaching her boys and girls to
waltz, fox trot, and tango but no
jitterbug. Mrs. Baker will employ
methods in her class used by this
famous instructor. So dancing, right
along with studies, piano, and violin,
will step up to take a part of New
berry boys and girls’ time this win
ter.
To Lancaster Party
Mrs. E. G. Able attended a bridal
party in Lancaster Saturday after
noon honoring three brides-elect of
that town, Charlotte Porter, Corinne
Ellison, and Nell Connors. Of parti
cular interest to Newberrians is the
forthcoming marriage of Miss Porter
to Clarence Ellerbe. Of course you
remember Mr. Ellerbe since he made
his home here for quite a while. Also
attending the Lancaster party was
Miss Rachael Kennedy of this city
who teaches in the Rock Hill high
school.. .Miss Pearl West, Columbia
teacher, was at home in the city for
the weekend. . .Visiting Mr. and Mrs.
William Partridge last weekend were
the former’s sister, Miss Bess Part
ridge, and Miss Frances Bivens.
Chatter
Zach Wright, who rates as Dr.
Wright now, invariably proves one of
the most popular speakers at the col
lege openings each year. He was ap
plauded into taking a couple of extra
bows at the opening last Friday...
One of the most attractive and sweet
est little kids I’ve ever seen is little
Molly Partridge, blond daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. William Partridge... A
walk around the water works grounds
’most any time of the year you will
enjoy immensley. The pampas grass
is in full bloom just now...We’re
glad to hear that the county fair
grounds and buildings are being used
occasionally instead of just once a
year at fair time. Meetings in the
interest of farm men and women
are sometimes conducted there...Col
lege students back gives the town a
filling look. It’s nice to see them in
our homes, stores, and churches
again... Hal Kohn in his speech at
the college opening exercises urged
the students to make at least one
friend each week among the town
people. He suggested that such ac
tion would not only bring a closer
relation between the college and town
people but probably result in more
invitations to the students for Sun
day dinners.. .Newberry high school
students are contemplating publishing
a school newspaper. The high school
is certainly large enough to handle
one and should have been doing it
before now... Three cheers for the
local policemen who are strictly en
forcing the parking rules—time
limits and inside the white lines
The city troop 0 f Girl Scouts are
meeting again after summer vacation
months with Mrs. J. D. French as
captain. The group is sponsored by
the Mothers club... New autos ga
lore may be seen in the city now. You
have to get used to the change in cars
each year before you can decide
whether the new ones are more at
tractive than the model of the year
before.. .Newberry county library
subscribers will be glad to leam that
Miss Lois Fant is back on the job as
librarian after a brief absence. She
and Mrs. R. G. Smith of Kinards, the
other librarian, are both such charm
ing people. It’s a pleasure to get
books from them...Some unknown
donator-to-the-cause recently walked
into my office and left a beautiful
spider lilly arranged on my desk in a
black vase. Upon close inspection you
will find this lily a lovely flower, if
you aren’t allergic to spiders.
MRS. WISEMAN ENTERTAINS
ONCE-A-WEEK BRIDGE CLUB
Mrs. J. E. Wiseman was hostess

Friday morning. Invited to play
with the members were Mrs. Mc-
Hardy Mower, Mrs. E. G. Able, Mrs
Richard Baker, and Mrs. W. R. Reid.
The high score prize for club mem
bers went to Mrs. Baker. Mrs. L. G.
Eskridge won the bingo gift.
Mrs. Wiseman served salad at the
noon hour.

Accssories are an important fash
ion point for the autumn between-
season. Gloves, hats, bags, and shoes
in 0 ne of the new fall shades are ef
fective as a means to making last
season’s suit do double duty, j Fashion
forecasts brown as the leading color
and never has brown been available
in such subtle tones. Ginger browns,
plum browns, and Ethiopian browns
make your choice wide. Monotones—
different tones of the same color used
in a costume—will be very smart this
fall.
One of the secrets of prolonging
the life of cut flowers lies in the me
thod and time of cuttnig them. First
of all the stems should be cut on a
slant. This prevents them from rest
ing flatly on the bottom of the con
tainer.
Next, it’s most important that
flowers should be cut at the correct
stage of development. A good gen
eral rule to follow in this is that the
single varieties may be cut in tight
buds and the double ones cut when
they are fully opened.
Also, flowers remain fresh longer
when placed in opaque containers
rather than transparent vases.
Asters and chrysanthemums will
keep fresh much longer if sugar is
adde dto the water. Use four table
spoons sugar to each quart of water
for the ’mums and one teaspoon su
gar to a quart of water for asters.

PONTIAC for 1940

If you are planning to take up
some annuals for potting indoors
watch them closely for signs of in
sects and disease. Examine your
plants in tubs and garden jars, too,
to be sure they are healthy. Proper
spraying and dusting now will make
them strong and thrifty for winter
blooming and growth. It’ not worth
while to take up fragile and blighted
plants for indoor blooming.
CHAMBER DIRECTORS EN
DORSE DIRECTORY
FOR NEWBERRY
It’s gratifying to know that the
green tinge on the outside of Valen
cia oranges does not mean that the
fruit is not fully ripe. Instead, as
the fruit reaches full maturity it is
characteristic for it to take on a
greenish tinge. This is especially
true late in the season because the
longer the fruit matures the more apt
this green tinge is to occur.
WANT ADS
At a meeting of the Chamber of
Commerce board of directors Friday,
Allston D. Calhoun, Jr., field mana
ger of the Baldwin Directory com
pany, presented the directory which
his company wishes to issue for New
berry either in December or January.
After hearing Mr. Calhoun, the di
rectors discussed the matter in execu
tive session and decided to endorse
this publication, feeling that at this
time there is need for a new directory
in Newberry.
The directors, although taking no
final action, agreed that for a city
the size of Newberry, a new direct
ory should not be issued more often
than every three years.
