The Shelby Cotillion Club announces a big script dance for Thursday night, July 8, at Cleveland Springs Hotel. The music will be furnished by the Tar Heel Syncopators, crack Shelby orchestra. The hours are 9 to 12.
The cotton ball planned for that evening will not be held, it is generally understood, there being some misunderstanding about leadership in the event following postponement of the date. The dance of that night, however, is expected to be widely attended.
Editor’s Note: A script dance was a large, formal dance where admission was charged. The script was the paper ticket you bought that allowed you to attend.
