Trial Error Ye, Editor slipped off a little while last Thursday ( press day) to "o down to Rose Hill and see the festivities in progress. Rose Hill was truly in all its glory, decorated for the parade, everyone dressed up and anxiously awaiting the huge crowd which attended the parade The press had been invited to in terview Emalee Gaddy, Miss To btcco Queen, and she is a most charming young lady. Miss Gaddy was gracious and friendly, as well as pretty. I did not get a chance to speak to Miss North Carolina, but I had met her in Warsaw a few weeks before. She is also beautiful and friendly. It is wonderful to me that the girls who are selected to hold these enviable places are required to have more than just looks. They represent our state and country in so many different situa tions that they have to be wide a wake to make a good impression. Miss Gaddy chattred away about her trip to Turkey and Germany. Now Beulaville is preparing for their Big Parade on Saturday. I be lieve that about winds up the par ades in this immediate vicinity. It looks as though the Christmas sea son will be past before Kenans ville gets their lights on. Lights have been up for two week but there seems to be some trouble some where which has prevented turning them yet. But in .ease you passer bye think we don't know it is Chris mas, we do in "a big way! Small towns Can crnwd more in durWs' the Christmas Holidays than the whole citv 67 Now York.
