HAROLD EUGENE WRATTEN, who was formerly em ployed in Inspection department, was married in Greenville, S. C. Before her marriage she was Miss Dorothy Naomi Pearson. Longer Skirts Are Coming, Girls, According To Rumors From Paris Longer skirts are coming into style ... so comes the rumor, straight from Paris. Let ’em come, we say. We’ve taken plenty in our stride, and an extra inch or two doesn’t faze us a bit. We know how the dress designers always twist us around their little fin gers, and how each new dress style always seem to bring a new hair style right along with it. So, let ’em come, we repeat. Probably the new longer dresses will set the vogue for longer hair. That’s OK with us, too. Thanks to the upsweep hairdo, we can have our hair look lots longer than it really is. And thanks to a liquid shampoo with hair conditioning ac- I tion, we’ve found we can always have shining clean hair, even when we can’t get to the hair dresser regularly. Another thing we’ve learned—no matter what we are wearing, our costume will be ever so much prettier if crowning it all, our hair has a soft sheen and bright highlights. That’s one rule Dame Fashion can’t change—nor wants to change, you may be sure. All the way back across the style path to the Gay Nineties, with its curls and pompadours; on through the 1900’s with smooth hair; through the 1920’s with that close shingled “bob”; and on into the 1930’s and ’40’s with the softer and more be coming hairdos, one rule has re- , mained unbroken, unbreakable. Our hair can’t be in the proper mode if it isn’t well cared for— clean, bright, shining, from prop er brushing and frequent sham poos. You know, when poets wrote about “that shining glory’' they really had something. Sunlight on soft clean hair — candle light on neat, well groomed hair—moon light on lustrous gleaming hair— we’re in the limelight all the time, Jn A Party Mood? It’s been a long time since the New Year’s Eve celebration and time to break up the dreary days of winter with a Valentine Day supper party. Here are some sug gestions that will stir your imagi nation, and your own ideas will in crease as your plans progress. Decorations—Drape several doz en strands of red and white cord from one corner of your dining room to the other, so they cross! abovie the center of your table. This same idea can be employed in the living room. The cord will give a different effect than the usual crepe paper. I A clever table centerpiece—Cu-j pid holding a bow (placed at one! end of the table) and a large card board heart pierced with an arrow (placed opposite Cupid)—wiH, take a little of your time and very lit tle money. Use a small doll for Cupid, fastening a bow, shaped from pipe cleaners, in his hands. Cut out a large heart from red paper and paste it on cardboard I with an easel back to make it stand upright. A dart will make a good arrow. From the same red paper trace out small hearts for place-cards and letter paper arrows with the I guests’ names. I Menu—The supper menu need! not be either elaborate or formal. I Keep it simple. Start the meal with a tomato juice cocktail. Your I favorite hot casserole dish will I St CornleY’ A son was born to Mr. and Mrs. Coy Fisher, December 8, at the Transylvania community hospital.
