BREVARD nsmUIE ; Misses Callahan and Poindexter 1 am.'in receipt of< a letter sac- gwfiitig an article on women of the ««rly days. I thank the writer for tlw ttiioaght for they aro worthy. The women of those dajns were fe- ■wles. They dressd according to the . aeason—good clothes in the winter which protected the neck and chest ^md skirts to the shoe top. There were no catarrh troubles in those early days. The shoes were mad and worn for comfort and health-, hence no corns. Women knittd thir own hose; wool for winter and cotton or have returned from their summer out ing at various points of interest. Miss Alma Trowbridge returned Tuesday from Chicago and Dubuque. _ A few of the summer studcmts are still at B. I., but the majority if them have left to visit other resorts in the mountains. Miss Ethel Leatherwood, formerly of B. I., now household economics demonstrator in Halifax County, N. C., is spending her vacation at Vir ginia beach. Miss Myrtle Baber leaves this- week for her vacation i^hich she will spend with friends and relatives in North and South Carolina. Several B. I. boys^who have been in Oklahoma working in the wheat field, are expected home this week. flax for summer. Girls were taught to knit their own foot wear. They called them stockings. ' You could not see the‘full length of their stockings as they walked. In those days women wor$| bon nets and veils and you scarcely ever saw a freckled .woman in those days. Girls were taught to spin, weave, cut and seW, wash, iron, scrub the floor and sweep the yard, in fact they were taught all tie arts of housekeeping and home making. They married for love, and worked for riches and no divorces in those days; no poodle dog where a baby ought to be. ♦- I- ' . - ■ The women of those days were as pure as the riven snow, beautiful as the rose of Sharon, the queen of the home and the ideal of her husband. She rode a side saddle and did not want to vote. Even today, be sure young lady that the girl who knows how to keep house will not be long without a house to keep. Men every where are on the lookout for you. beautiful face, a graceful fig ure, a fine disposition constitutes a remarkable combination in women. THE UNITED STATES rXiLROAD .
