SEASON TURNS LADIES’ INTEREST TO STYLES Catherine Dennis’ Home Economics Class Completing Silk Unit Gives Fashion Review. FOUR TYPES OF DRESS ARE SHOWN With the entrance of the spring son milady’s interest turns to those new filmy creations so designed to best bring out milady's charms. Suitable choice for the individual and oec'ision mean much in becoming what femi heart desires most—to be a well dressed woman. Within our schools we see each day a fashion review, in our halTs, but Ikei must be correct standards to go by. Of such was .the nature of the style show given by the fourth semester home economics class of Miss Catlier Dennis on Friday, March 27. Four types of dross were displayed and discussed in turn. They were judged according to their appearance, workmiiuship, suitiibiliTy, and the co: rect accessories. Girls in the class displayed their ow dresses and the others iiointed out the: good points and their defects. Sport drosses were modeled by June Franklin, Josephine Lucas, Paulino Highfleld, Adel Sclionck, Lake lliirrni, and Marion Good man. Afternoon dress of informal ture were shown by Gladys Hodgiii, Francos Dean, Edith Corsbie, Evelyn Kollam, and Ruby Smith. Formal aft ernoon drosses were modeled by Ruby MeQiiago and Rosalie Harrison, while the evening dress was displayed by Maiy Moore Cavan.

Who is responsible for this, students terested in chemistry? Bring some ducks to G. 11. S. when it rains; the sidewalks collect enough whiter to form swimming pools. The ".Telly Waggins" are no more. They are not allowed to sell to the stu dents since the students are forbidden to leave the s-lioo! grounds.

ALL ABOUT SHELBY S h e I h y Fitzgerald, affectionately known as “I’aiisy” who stands about six feet tall, spoke of himself in English 'class recently ns the smallest and younge.st member of his family. Ac cording to this, the remainder of the family must be veritable giants. Shelby's hair, which is short, fluffy, and black, is the object of some little atten tion. His bass voice commands respect 11(1 admiration. Shelby's iH-coniiiU-niment-. are rather inusual. lie is well known for his dramatic iibiliry, being a membtr of the Golden Masiiiiers, Ihe dr.imatic organi zation of G. 11. 8. In addition to taking in the various plays he also plays •ominent pan in mosi of tlie oiieras given by tlie music department. His ac- eomplishmeiits as a scholar liave been mainly in plivsics and mathematics. Sheliiy, ill nlditioo to being custo dian of G. H. 8. stage, is one of the operators of th-.i moving picture chines. Formerly, Shelby was oimi of the city .school’s portable picture miK-hine. Tliis year he relinquished that position to Clyde Wooten so that he eould take up his required subjects and finish liigh school. AMBITION 'Tis great to he a football star, r to send a baseball afar.

' Busybodies don’t come r their-'own share of life. They take re of everyone’s business with- the oeptioii of their own. As a result, they attended to the business of the other fellow so diligently that they find thom8elv.es considerably in the rut- haracter. Business makes much ado about nothing. It fills each unforgiving lUte with sixty seconds worth of ning after the exasperated -man who ^ to roll his oiM, hoop. I-eave me c. If I can’t handle my own affairs, you know and you can go home and worry about it. Don’t be a •body. Get busy and be a busy SEE?
