Spring Fashions
Take Their Bow
Th'e Easter Parade will offi
cially begin Sunday morning at
ten o’clock when the socialites of
Albemarle will be stepping out
in their best.
The pastel hues of ice blue,
lim'e, and lilac will be worn, and
navy solids and checks, dressed
up with a big cluster of flowers
ranging from big red roses to
dainty white ones, will also be
seen among the finery.
The quilted skirt topped off
with a sleeveless blouse and a
snug belt will be tops in this
year’s fashion parade. The gay
combination of a sleeveless
blouse and very full, gathered
skirt is again holding its own.
Many girls are wearing these
cute outfits and it seems that
even more will adopt this simple
but adorable style.
Fashion has, as on many oc
casions, gone from one extr*eme
to another. This year it has
done so in the coat field. Top
pers are ranging in color from
creamy pastels to gay checks
and plaids. One of the most
popular ones is th'e short waist
length type. It comes in various
styles and materials, but the
most popular seems to be the
waist-hugging one fashioned of
poodle cloth. Girls! They are
precious! The old - fashioned
duster is again taking its place
near the head of the fashion
parade. Many of these dusters
are of linen trimmed with vel
vet and they look charming over
a sheer dress.
The new paper taffeta will
rnal^e someone a dreamy crea
tion, but watch out!—don’t get
it too near a fii*e. Ever practi
cal nylon is again being used to
make dresses which always look
fresh and chic.
Many of the dresses this year
have lowcut necklines to as
sure coolness during your school
hours and to provid'e that femi
nine look. They are made in
many different styles to give you
an air of individuality. One very
different and also charming en
semble is a pale-hu'ed dress with
a short-sleeved cardigan of the
same color. The lavender out
fit is especially charming.

WHO'S WHO
this season you can see them.
Two of the most popular glove
styles are the mesh ones mad'e
of string and the sheer nylon
ones. Both styles come in white
and pastels, so make your
choice. , .
Since past'els are so much m
evidence this year, it is easy to
see wlay even shoes are bursting
out in these gay spring colors.
Shell shoes are popular again
this year and they look equally
cute for school and dating. Past
el loafers are also taking-over.
They are sturdy but feminine
and many girls are already
sporting them.
Let’s all put on our new bon
nets and other finery and take
our place in the Easter Parade.
See ya around.
Always for the School and Community

JANE RUSSELL
After Jane Russ'ell, our Who’s
Who of the month, told me very
modestly that she hasn’t held
many offices in the school, I
could hardly believe her. So,
since my job as intervi'ewer calls
for it, I decided to find out for
myself just what she has ac
complished during her four year
high school career. This is what
my snooping uncovered.
Jane was elected homeroom
officer for two years, and was
secretary of the student body
during her sophomore year. She
was tapped into the honor soc
iety in th'e spring of the eleventh
grade, and this in itself tells of
the wonderful points included in
her personality.
Jane’s increasing popularity
and friendliness were the two
factors by which sh'e was elected
the managing editor of the Full
Moon, chairman of the school
Welcome committee, delegate to
Mars Hill Music convention, and
delegate to Honor Society con
vention.
In spite of her smallness in
statue, Jane has a wonderful and
more or less powerful voice. She
has proved this by being in the
Mixed Chorus for threfe years and
being in the ninth grade oper
etta.
She just couldn’t decide which
movie stars are her favorites,
but she finally picked Gregory
Peck, Virginia Mayo, Tony Curt
is and Janet Leigh.
Some lucky Junior College will
have Jane walking down its
