December, 1951 THE FULL MOON Page 3 Letters to Cupid Dear Cupid, I’ve tried and tried, but I just can’t find a solution to my prob- lerti. Please help me. As you know I go with a ci^te little boy named Joe, but when I date, my “Ma” just won’t get out of the living room. I’ve pleaded and I’ve begged, but it just doesn’t do any good. Also Sylvia calls me every night at 10:00 and I can’t make her stop talking so I can get back to Joe. Please tell me what to do, ’cause I’m really desperate. Just Waiting! Ginger Heliums Dear Ginger, After reading your pitiful let ter, I sympathize with you entire ly. You really do have a prob lem. There are only two ways out of this that I can see. First is to bribe Mr. Grigg to give your Mother extra work to do at school on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights. Then just take a pair of scissors and cut the telephone wires and stop “Sy’s” talking (if that’s possible). If that doesn’t work, just make “Dr. John” buy Joe a Cadillac convertible. Helpfully Cupid Dear Cupid, What’s wrong with me? I’m considered fairly handsome and I have good looking 1932 A-model Ford. I take my girl to the Wed nesday night shows, I buy her the best peirfume and jewelry from Roses’s; but she still doesn’t love me and insists on going out with these “cheap” guys. Please tell me what to do—I’m really worried about myself. Just Hoping “Desperate Youngun” Dear “Youngun,” You really have a problem. I believe you can solve it by taking her to the double feature Satur day shows. You can also buy a newer car. Any girl would love to ride in a 1933 Ford, especially if you cut the top off and have a beautiful convertible. Try buying a few pieces of jewelry from Starpes’; anybody can afford that. Ihope this helps you, because I really understand your problem. Cupid Young'uns Yarns JOHNNY YOUNGBLOOD Luke: “I fell in love with a gal named Kay. Then Edith came along. Now I don’t know what to do.” Juke: ‘Well, you can’t have your Kay and Edith too!” Did You Know— If a man is too lazy to think for himself, he should get married. A faucet drips because it can’t sniff. Some people sing in the bath tub because the door won’t stay locked. Patience is the ability to idle your motor when you feel like stripping the gears. Hardrock, Luke’s uncle, lost his streetsweeping job. Couldn’t keep his mind in the gutter. Drunk: “Ho, Lady, you got two very beautiful legs.” Girl (snappily): “How would you know?” Drunk: “I counted them." Glowering Wife: “And what’s the reason for you to come home at 5:00 o’clock in the morning?” Old Slush: “Breakfast.” Question: Why do birds fly south in the fall? ^ ^ Answer: It’s too far to walk. Some thirst after knowledge, some after money — but every body thirsts after popcorn. Johnny: “What can one expect of a day that starts so early in the morning?” “Where were you yesterday, LizziG?^^ “Ah was blackberrin’, ma’am. It was mah cousin Mose’s funeral.” “Say, Bud, you’ve been staring at me for half an hour. What’s the big idea?” “Oh, I’m sorry—er—forgive me. I guess the reason I was staring is that if it weren’t for the moust ache you’d be a dead ringer for my wife.” “Moustache! I have no moust- 3,chG “No — but my wife has!” Albemarle Savings and Loan Association Mortgage Loans Savings Safety of Your Savings Insured Up to $10,000.00 PHONE 28 STILL OIL CO.

If you do, Jimmy Skidmore is your man. This tall, brown-eyed senior has a reputa tion for doing any job well. Jimmy has had many honors, which he deserves, during his three and one-half years in A. H. S. All through his high school career he has been outstanding in various sports and activities. Although Jimmy has a well-filled schedule, he finds time to participate in the Monogram, Boosters, and Dram atics clubs, to preside as president of the Honor Society, and totplay varsity basketball. Also, he is an outstanding member of the Full Moon staff and is assistant mana ger of the Crossroads. Also, during his high school days, Jimmy has been manager of the football team, a member of the Student Council and of the tennis team, and has taken part in field day, intramural sports, and soft ball. As a junior, Jimmy helped to write and edit the student handbook. T-Bone steaks and french fried potatoes are Jimmy’s favorite food, and any movie with Jeff Chandler or Janet Leigh interests him greatly. He is also perfectly content practicing basketball or hanging out at the Creamery. Jimmy is still undecided as to which college he will attend next year but hopes to become a Civil Public Accountant after his col lege career. Anywhere Jimmy goes, he will be as popular and well-liked as he is here and will surely make a success of himself. Atkins Super - Market 415 W.

VIRGINIA HEJLMS Have you ever seen a blue-eyed red head walking down the hall smiling and talking to everyone? If you have, you must know that this is Virginia Helms. Virginia is not only pretty but smart too. She was tapped into the Honor Society last fall and has been an active member since that time. Virginia is also a mem ber of the Boosters, Black Mas que, and Tri-Hi-Y clubs. Although she has a full sched ule, including physics and chem istry, Virginia seems to find time to work with the Crossroads staff, write for the Full Moon and the Stanly News and Press, and serve on the Publicity Committee of A. H. S. and as secretary of her homeroom. Virginia is a regular girl of the sea. She delights in eating any sea food you can name. She is a great fan of Tony Curtis and Janet Leigh and loves to see any movie featuring either of them. Although she likes to curl up with a good book and read for hours, you will find her perfectly willing to stop and talk about any and every thing. Virginia’s choice of a career is nursing, but she may settle for a degree in business administration. She is undecided about which col lege to enter but is planning at the present time to enter UNC School of Nursing. Wherever she goes and whatever she does, Vir ginia will surely be liked by all for her gay smile and friendly chatter.
