They’d*certainly need help, unless
all hands went barefoot —that
sounds crazy, but you know what
I mean—and unless they wore al
most as little as those young
folk who played tennis on our
court last summer.
When a child I heard of a wo
man who paid forty dollars for one
dress. It did npt seem to me that
such things really could be; and
my aunt’s colored helper agreed
when we discussed the matter.
“No sir,” she exclaimed, “nobody’ll
go pay that much for one dress,
’cept it’s got gold on it.” And
when I heard that a neighborhood
bride had spent sixty dollars cash
money for her trousseau I expect
ed to see gorgeousness, and was
much disappointed when she ap
peared at church in a navy blue
suit one day and a navy blue taf
feta the next time. Still, I con
soled myself by thinking that her
underwear must be mighty fine.
It was not until I tried buying my
own clothes and keeping accounts
of what was spent, that I realized
something of what clothes cost,
and that family dressing on thirty
three dollars a year has my sym
pathy.
The best management I ever
heard of was that of a good-look
ing, neatly d essed young woman
who said that by planning for
three years’ clothes in one budget
she could manage on an average
of twenty dollars a year. At in
tervals I have tried to figure that
out and my calculations have al
ways left her minus either a hat,
Sunday shoes, or a best dress.
Yet she had them all. Some day
I’m going to ask her to teach me
how she did it. I know she did
her own sewing, crocheted and em
broidered beautifully, and was a
careful buyer; but I don’t know
how she bought all the materials
for twenty dollars.
Her having done so is some en
couragement about the thirty-three
dollar family; though I have no
idea they can plan one-tenth so
well.

wish to thank their relatives and
friends for many kindnesses and
much sympathy. While in Atlantic

tended Shiloh Baptist church and

the sickness and death of our
mother and for so many nice
flowers and the use of your cars.

For three generations one woman
has told another how to go “smil

helps Nature tone up the system,
thus lossening the discomforts from
the functional disorders which
women must endure in the three
ordeals of life: 1. Turning from
girlhood to womanhood. 2. Pre

Mrs. Weaver was loved by all
who knew her, and faithful to all
the churches in‘this county. Join
ing the Wakefield church at an
early age and living in Zebulon,
she had to attend most of the time
there. She' will be missed by both
church and school. When asked to
do something she would say, “I’ll
do what I can.”
Funeral service was at the
Wakefield Baptist Church, with
Rev. A. A. Morrisey in charge, as
sisted by Rev. Hawkins of Spring
Hope. Interment was in the Bol
den cemetery.
