If there is any section of the world that should be really and truly grate ful |fd? the many material bl ssings it npw enjoys, that country is Amer ica. jWe U3ed to think that Europe with its Jrene*-ab'e institutions of learning, ita Wonderful museums, galleries ot art4 its magnificent churches and pal aces, was the final and the finished product of civilization. It seems but yesferday that to have been “abtoad” was a badge of distinction, a hallmark of culture and an indispu table evidence of soqial prominence. But? tojlav after knowning Europe wit^ £ti frightful ravage# of war, Us By Mrs. Madge Webb Riley. Phone 30. I | V—_t j seething discontent, its undernourish* : ed and debt ridden peoples, its dis credited titled classes, its helpless ! present and almost hopeless future : the glamor fades, and we realize that ! its civilization was but a thin veneer j after all. Every convenience and ma terial eomfort that intelligence has suggested and ingenuity devised is within the reach of all in this country. One is trulv fortunate in this day to be “just an American.” Mrs. Oscar Suttle Com pliments Mrs. Carl Hopper. Mrs. Oscar Suttle will be at home informally on Saturday afternoon complimenting Mr-. Carl Hopper who is visiting relatives here. Mrs. Hop per is from Fa I Furries, Texas and comes of a very prominent and old family, her father being the owner of large ranches also a banker of prom inence. Mrs. Suttle’s hour is from 5:30 to (5:30. The members of the music and Art department will be the guests and a few outside friends. The "Looker Oij” Writes of Fair Play in Furnishing. Many a woman who has an abso lute sense of justice towards her fam ily, friends and trades people, prac tices a gross partiality towards cer tain parts of her house. She would .'■corn to show more kindness; or shower greater expense upon one child ; than another. Yet she will in choos ing her household furnishings, "play favorite” in a most obvious fashion. In some homes the parlor is the favored room, getting all the hand some and expensive things, while the rest of the house gets shabbier and shabbier. In other houses, the entire downstairs is furnished and adorned ! on a much finer scale than the up. stairs, where guests are seldom al lowed to penetrate. One woman wilt keep on buying lovely new table lin en and dishes and yet her upstairs linen supply gets low. Another woman will buy expensive electrical equip ment, yet never a hook, a lovely pic ture, a graceful lamp, or anything which would minister to the aesthetic life of the family, or develop in them art appreciation of beauty. Only by fairly apportioning can one obtain in the house or in a room, an appearance of* harmony, beauty and balance. Hafetv on Highways. (From Greensboro Record.) 'Herbert Houver has appointed Frapk Page highway wizard of Noilh Carolina, as .chairman of a com mittee to‘work Out plans looking to a greater degree of safety on highways and streets, " Such a movement will he eoncentrat ed ip a conference on the subject pre venting accidents front motor vehi cle traffic in this country, to be held later in the year. This is the first wide-spread attempt to lower the frightful toll on human life taken yearly by motor accidents. The real solution to this problem appears to lie with the individual. The work of the committees will be to de vise plans for bringing this menace forcibly to his attention. The gnat success from the grade crossing campaigns that have been conducted prove conclusively the power of the individual and when this power is properly directed we will see the number of fatalities and accidents diminishing. If the motorists can he made to see the danger of railwny crossings they can bo made to see the danger of oth er causes of accidents. The move ment instituted by Secretary Hoover is one that should find support be cause of its broad human scope and the fact that the field it will serve needs attention so vitally. Let’s have fewer and smaller acci dents! EVANS E. McBRAYER has just received from Mr. Bricker, his New York buyer, 3 0 0 fine Broadway Straw Hats. He bought them for $1.00 to $1.50 less than regular price. They go on sale the same way. Three lots $1.95, $2.95 and $3.45. See them at once. -AT THE PRINCESS-— —FRIDAY— Jean Tolley in “THE UNINVITED GUEST,” a story of a girl castaway and two men who fought for her. One for himself and one to save her from the other.

Also the second chapter of “GHOST TURN ON^THE CURRENT DO you believe in electricity ? Do you believe in its power to run street cars, heat buildings, ring bells? If you do you can realize the effect of the human electricity or Vital Force of the body; what the effects will be when there is an obstruction of this force. We Chiropractors release the prisoned impulse, the tiny rivulet of Vital Force, that emanates from the mind and flows over the nerves to the cells and stirs them into life; this power that transforms common food into liv ing, loving, thinking clay. We deal with that eubtle sub stance of the soul, the individual power of God in man, which flows through every living thing, bringing about the great mysterious functions we call life. PRESSURE UPON NERVES OBSTRUCTS THIS FLOW OF VITAL FORCE Causing weakened activities of the bodyguard physical disorders arise.
