February 9, 1951 THE SALEMITE Pa^e Five m m Clara Sees Nylon and Bows As She Looks At Trousseaus By Clara Justice With the coming of Spring, when a young man’s fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love, many of the Salem girls’ fancies are lightly turning to thoughts of trousseaus.

As for trousseau dresses, the favorites seem to be Spring prints and linens. The dressy cottons are also quite fashionable. Nylon is the most popular when it comes to gowns. Of course every bride will have either a silk or satin white set. Dainty nylon underwear is favored—it is not only pretty, but also practical. Actually it doesn’t matter what they wear, for the nine Salem brides-to-be are already beaming with a happiness that dulls mere apparel.

Neither of us liked rats, but, strangely enough, she didn’t like the boy’s cat any better. Then she had an idea. She jumped up babbling excitedly, grab bed my hand, and pulled me along down the street. We stop ped at the last house and Rosalie pointed to the window sill. She had a cat too; a honey-colored kitten mottled with deep amber, like tortoise shell. She stretched to lift it down and cradled it, like a baby, in her arms. She bent her head to hear the purr as she stroked its ragged ears. Finally I understood; the boy’s cat had at tacked her kitten. The picture was a study of a child’s tendei love for something small and warm, something alive to protect. No thing mattered to her, neither the crowd watching-—for the novel in terest in the rat had died out and they returned to “la touriste”—nor the tiny bugs crawling in the soft fur. /‘Penny, Penny!” The clamor began again. I distributed the last ones, then, finding a nickel, piit it on the step by the kitten. A tiny girl—the one with breakfast plast ered all over her face—instinctively grabbed. One of the older boys jumped forward and scolded her, all the time shaking his head seriously from side to side. I couldn’t possibly keep up with the argument, but in a minute the nickel was back on the step. It was for the kitten; the kitten be longed to Rosalie, therefore so did the nickel. But Rosalie wouldn’t touch the nickel. She only shook her head and said “eenon.” She was no beggar. In the midst of great poverty her parents had taught her never to accept money. The father had a job—I couldn’t understand what kind—and the in come Was steady, something to be counted on. The nickel stayed un touched on the warm stone. msHaN SHOP This week-end the dean’s desk will be piled high with out-of-town slips. , i There will be a mass migration of Salem girls to the mid-winter dances at Carolina. | Caroline Huntley with Iverson Riddle, Dora Cammeron with Neil Swartz, Betty McCrary with John- j ny Ingrin, Peggy Bonner with John Farrby, Lou Davis with Ray Deal, Betty Kincaid with Clyde Gardner, Nancy Florance with Buddy Wal lace, and Peggy Britt with Frank Keel will all be there.

Both Cammy Lovelace and Ann Spencer are the proud parents of two new cars. Now that warm weather is draw ing near, we know that Willie Rhyne is looking forward to many more delightful week-ends at the beach. She’s been singing “Cool, Clear Water” ever since the last one. Kenan Casteen, whose head is filled with wedding plans hardh' has time to look up from the Vogue Book of Etiquette ex cept when Harry calls. They have already received their first wedding present—a new car. The $64 question still is—Who called Harry Martin at 2:18 in the morning and sang, “Oh God, Our Help In Ages Past”? m '4 Wylma Pooser’s Engagement To Pax Davis Is Announced As I walked away the picture of that street remained in my mind. There in the midst of a band of little waifs was a sense of pride and honor, a system of justice fairer than one found in many groups of well-educated children from much more privileged neigh borhoods. “Pennies! Pennies! Pennies!” The voices echoed as I returned to modern Quebec. Mr. and Mrs. A. Keith Pooser announce the engagement of their daughter, Wylma Elizabeth to James Paxton Davis, Jr., of Win-' ston-Salem. The wedding is plan ned for June 6.
