others visited at someone’s else home.
Miss Bell handed us the following list—
you will note that she does not mention
where Miss Bell was over the week-end:
Georgia Lilly went cross-country (We
don’t believe she ran), to her home in
Norwood, N. C., being so eager to get
home that she did not even stay Wed
nesday night for the big party.
Bess Whitson, Louise Whitley, and
Emmie Brown took a little trip on
Thanksgiving morning, going to Moores-
ville, N. C., to enjoy the hospitality of
Ruth Brawley’s home.
Mrs. Verona Daniels did not wander
far afield, for she spent the holiday in
Palmerville—you know, just over the
hill from Badin.
Mary Wesley and Claire Snead en
joyed their holiday with Alberta Boone,
in Durham, N. C.
Josephine Childs journeyed to Spar
tanburg, S. C., to pass the short recess
with relatives.
Two of our members decided to leave,
and they both severed their connections
with us on the same day. One was Julie,
the other was Joe. You know why they
left! “And they lived happily ever
afterward.”
Kirk Erb and Dick Richards are
staunch members of the Badin Band.
They have a dream, too; it is about some
day in the future when they will have a
sure enough orchestra right here in
Badin.
Mr. W. L: Cotton, of Albemarle and
Badin, expects soon to take a trip to
Florida. We wouldn’t be at all surprised
to learn that he got stuck on Cuba while
that near.

“I am going to preach on ‘Liars’ tonight,

seat, with a big cob pipe in his mouth.

Pat—Pm not smoking.
Conductor—Well, you’ve got your
pipe in your mouth.
Pat—So Pve got my feet in my shoes

School Wit
Lovemaking in Vegetable Language
Do you “carrot” all for me?
My heart “beets” for you.
You are the “apple” of my eye.
With your “radish” hair and “turnip”
nose.
My love for you is soft as a “squash-’
Be as strong as an “onion,”
If you “cantaloupe,” then “Lettuce”
marry.
I know we will make a happy “pear.”
