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 PERSONALS D. H.

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.” Temple Of Israel To Note Rosh Ha-Shono 1 A series of services, conducted by Rabbi M. M. Thurman, will celebrate Rosh Ha-shono, the Jew ish religious New Year, beginning this evening at the Temple of Israel.
