We reported the
other day here-in on how a county resident had made a $100 suit for herself for
about $2.50 by following the advice of Miss Mary B. Strickland, Iredell Home
Agent.
Today, Miss
Strickland gave us another example of how her club women can make new outfits
for themselves at a minimum of cost. The one we’re about to tell you of cost 15
cents.
Mrs. Dawson Rufty
took an old suit, covered the brass beads with fuschia nail polish, covered the
white knots on an old hat the same color, and dyed her white gloves fuschia
Then she stepped out Easter day in a “new” outfit at a cost of 15 cents.
LIGHTED TOWERS
Broad Street
Methodist Church towers now gleam every night, the lovely amber glass a beacon.
In each of the three towers, electric lights have been placed, and beginning
tonight lights will burn until near midnight.
This is the
realization of a dream by Rev. C.P. Bowles, the pastor, who says that ever since
he saw a church in a Tennessee city having lighted towers, he has looked
forward to the day when Broad Street would be “The Church of the Lighted
Towers.”
MAX THARPE
When you pick up
your current issue of Popular Photography and see those pictures by Max Tharpe,
don’t think you’re dreaming. It’s really our boy Tharpe who has broken into the
photographer’s Bible.
Max made the
national magazine with three pictures which he took while a student at the
Institute of Design in Chicago. One is used as a full-page spread, the other is
a half-page and the third is a quarter-page.
However, he isn’t
letting it go to his head. He will still speak to his friends if they walk up
to him on their knees and salaam.
