( 11’ WHAT’S SMART IN MEN’S WEAR The few “exclusives” i> • hard put to it to keep ahead of f, the many” A NOTED stylist the other day gave a definition of style as “the effort of the few : to wear something different from the many, and the effort of the many to catch np with the few.” The job of the few who would be exclusive is becoming more and more difficult all the time. A few years back when new styles originated, usually among the young men of the dressy English “army set,” they would be copied later by tbe London tailors who supply wealthy civilians. Then Ameri can tailors would get hold of . them a season later, and a few of the new styles would be I seen along Fifth Avenue. From there they would gradually spread over the country. But now, things are different. Large American clothing manu facturers like Hart Schaflfner & | Marx have style observers on j the ground, and have arrange | ments whereby patterns of new styles which appear in London or it the famous watering places on the Continent are im mediately brought to America. Those which appear suitable are immediately made avail able to alert men, in all parts 1 of the country who are inter ested in style, so that the many, I | ts they wish, may be right on I he heels of the few all the time. Young men in America look t# college men for style leader- I ship. College men this spring are sminc in stronedv for the — Problem in Punctuation. The following verse headed "SJotimfs Foolish,'But Is ItV" was clipped from the Hoosier Motorist. But it isn't ns foolish as it reads be cause, when properly punctuated, it erases to be a hodgepodge ot non sense and reads sensibly. , A funny little man told this to me i I fell in a snowdrift in June said he i 1 went to a ball game out in the sea i I saw a jelly fish float up a tree i I found some gum in a cup of tea 1 I stirred my milk with a big brass key . j lopelted my door an my bended -knee I beg your pardon for this said he.

YOUTH WANDERS ' IN BED CLOTHES David Philemon, Mind Dazed, Roams Country in Pajamas. Shelby, April 16.—David Phile | mon, ministerial student of Boiling j Springs, hifh school and author of j several pamphlets of poems, roamed in a dazed condition from the school I early Wednesday morning and was ! found about day-light near Beam Mill •in his night clothes. Squire Sylvanus j Gardner and a Mr. Ledford discov ered him along the road and noticing ; his mental condition, brought him to | Shelby, where he was placed in the j care of Sheriff Logan. Philemon is ! said to be a junior at the high school | and a native of Union county. About 1. o’clock Wednesday morn | ing he left his room in his night j clothes and went to the home of the Boiling Springs pastor. Rev. John I Green. After calling Mr. Green to l the door he told him that he had re ceived a call as a missionary to the foreign fields and must be on his way. Mr. Green asked him to return to his room and dress, promising to meet him there as soon as he (Green) | could dress. When Mr. Green re ported at the room lie found that the j young student had not returned but j had left the community walking. j ; Neighbors were summoned and | hunting parties formed to make a i search in every direction. Early in j the morning Gus Jolly and Mr. Ham- j I rick reported that they had tracked j | his bare feet in this direction. Soon i after their arrival in town they learned that the dazed student had i been located near Beams Mill and I brought to Shelby. Officers say he i had regained his mental factulties to some extent and that he will be dis j mic&ed in a day or so. | Johnson Meetings at Kannapolis. j | The ‘‘Bob” Johnson Evangelistic Campaign at St. John's Reformed Church, Kannapolis, is attracting larger crowds and considerable liter- . est is being manifested in the ser vices. Mr. Johnson bases his messages up on the Bible ahd they ar most spirit ual and practical. He appeals to the • hearts of his hearers and urges them to act upon their best judgment after they have thought matters through. His campaign is well organized and the results of Ills minstry for 25 years have been of a permanent nature. , Mr. and Mrs. Jesse B. Thomas have • already sung themselves into the hearts of the people. They are es pecially attracting large numbers of children. More than 150 children have already joined their “Children's Boost eer Choir.” Miss Killian is a most consecrated and faithful worker.
