well that ends well," and thus it was
with the "Old Maids' Club" that
was opened to the visitors at the ap- 1
pointed hour last Friday evening in
the auditorium of Cedar Swamp
school building. The ladies inter- r
<8ted, with the willing assistance c
of some of our obliging young men
who who thoughtfully offered their '
-services in arranging and helping to 1
Hp rate the stage with red berry J
holly and other attractive ever- 1
greens, succeeded in producing a ^
very pretty and appropriate stage
setting for the entertainment. When i
the curtain was drawn the specta- 1
tors beheld a half score or more of
our charming young ladies attired <
as old maids organized for the explicit
purpose of capturing a man. ^
The personnel of the club was as j
follows: Misses Muriel Chandler,
Hessie McCullough, Fowler Tisdale,
Ervin McCullough, Beth McGill,
Blanche Tisdale, Dolores McNeil,
Ouida McCrea, Sue McNeil, Alma 1
Duke and Lector Parnell The for- 1

mitted to be on the stage with the
"Old Maids" were: Messrs Will Mc- 1

- whom acted their roies very creau- *
ably. The affair was a comic en- <
tertainraent, causing much laughter
and applause. One of the amusing
features was the secretary's reading
an itemized expense account, it being
noted that face powders and
matrimonial journals were the largest
expense, where upon Mr Coker
addressed the president of the club,
stating that he wished to call their
attention to an interesting item in

lowing extract (the parties concern- I
ed were in the audience): "Mr Cleve (
Duke of Benson,S. C.,and Miss Malil- I
da Johnson of Zeb, S. C., were mar- *
ried Wednesday of last week. The c
marriage was a direct result of ad- t
vertising in The Record. So you see i
it pays to advertise in the paper even v
for a wife. The Record proposes to *
start a matrimonial bureau." Then h
came the rush to get n ' ads." The s
music was one of the entertaining

?isses Jessie Bethea and Ervin Mchillough,
played on the piano with
ruicar and violin accompaniments,
leld the lovers of music spell-bound.

softly this "club verse":

Little man, big man, fat or tall?

Just any kind of^a man at all."
