Come Out Of Your Shell
No One’s Going In After You
BY RUTH MILLETT
She is an attractive looking, in
telligent woman who does her jot
well. Yet the man who could ad
vance her in the organization says
she will never go much further
than she is already. Why?
His answer is “She’s a cold fish
She has acquaintances, but nc
close friends. Nobody has anything
to say against her. But no one has
a great deal to say for her. She
is the kind of person who you see
often stuck in routine jobs. Her
personality lacks warmth and mag
netism.”
.'THE SHELL CAN BE BROKEN
That executive is right. There
are lots of people — both men and
women — who never get the most
out of their ability, looks and their
brains because they never break
through a shell of reserve to meet
others on equal ground.
Usually they are extremely po
lite. Usually they are nice people
underneath their shells. But it
takes so long to see what is be
hind the shells that most people
never bother.
It wouldn’t be easy for any one
of these persons to come out from
behind the shell. To go out to meet
other human beings. To let others
know they like and admire them.
But people determined to break
their own shells can do it. It
could be done in easy steps. First
by smiling warmly, rather than
politely.
Then by coming right out and
saying the nice things they think.
There’s no benefit to you or to the
other persons if you think he’s pret
ty swell, but never let him know
it.
BETTER TO SAY SOMETHING
HE MAY REGRET
Also, they could sometimes make
the first gestures toward friend
ship, instead of holding back and
waiting to be singled out.
And thej could overcome their
distrust of people. No one can have
really close friends if he believes
in keeping his “business” to him
self.
It is much better to tell some
thing he may possibly regret than
to go through life being close to
| no one outside his own family. 2

THEATRE NAME
CHANGE SOUGHT
Citizens Ask It Be Named
Bailey/ Honoring Late
Theatre Operator
A movement to secure a change
in the name of Wilmington’s new
theatre from the Colony to the
Bailey, in honor of the late George
W. Bailey, is gaining considerable
headway here, C. N. Phillips said
yesterday morning.
Phillips said friends of the late
theatre operator here for some
time have been circulating a pe
tition through the city asking
North Carolina Theatres, Inc., of
Charlotte, to change the name from
that given it by Bailey to one
which will commemorate him.
"At the time the theatre was
named,” Phillips said, "it was sug
gested that it should be named the
Bailey, but Mr. Bailey was too
modest, to allow it and insisted
that it be named the Colony.”
The petition, signed by many of
the more prominent men of the
city, and addressed to H. F. Kin
cey, treasurer and general mana
ger of North Carolina Theatres,
Ic., follows:
“We are glad to join in a sug
gestion and request that the new
theatre to be opened here in De
cember be named ‘The Bailey’ in
fitting tribute to the position and
worth as a citizen as exemplified
in the life and character of the
late George W. Bailey, of Wil
mington. We believe that this sug
gested name in the place of The
SOROSIS CLINIC
IS SLATED TODAY
The weekly baby clinic conduct
ed by North Carolina Sorosis will
be held this morning from 9 until
10 o’clock at the Sorosis clubhouse
on North Third street. Dr. Adair
and Mrs. Springs will be in charge.
Mrs. Newton Fisher is chairman
for October.
Colony would be fitting and ap
propriate and that it would greatly
please the people of our com
munity. Mr. Bailey for many
years was a factor in the progres
sive advancement and develop
ment of this city, and we believe
it was largely due to his sugges
tion and effort combined with his
material faith, that the fine new
theatre was made a reality. We are
glad to affix our names to this pe
tition, in the confident belief that
its purpose reflects general sen
timent and that it would be an
acceptable perpetuation of Mr.
Bailey’s name and influence.”

Why Good Grooming requires keeping
DARK ARCS DRY
If you still are tolerating perspiration
under the arms, just listen to facts
about hygiene in these dark arcs that
any doctor can give you:
It's uncleanly! That repellant under
arm odor signals decay! That perspir
ation which damages gowns is de
composed !
Because the dark arcs are closed to
purifying air and light, perspiration
decays before it evaporates. 5
Perspiration, carrying cast off body \
wastes, pours out on the skin, ming- j:
ling with dead skin scales, and micro
organisms. Decay begins. Acids form, j:
Fungus may grow and bacteria mul- ;■
tiply. Rancid odors appear.
"It’s shocking,” say lovely women 5
of today! is
They prevent it, by using Arrid to e
safely check perspiration. Arrid keeps 1
underarms d , odorless, 1 to 3 days, I
No perspiration, no decay, no odor. 5
Arrid, which safely checks perspir- More than 25 MILLION
