thanks to those organizations which were so unselt
Lucius Jones ish and co-operative as to stage affairs for their
visiting guests Equally warm thanks were voted those organizations,
which, for plausibie reasons, could not indulge in their previously
i planned reception:
?' LUCIUS WISHES ALSO to state to Sigma Gamma Rho and to
his public that he is deeply grateful for their many compliments on his
work in connccticn with the conclave. Be it said that this column is
dedicated 1o cervice to the public and will leave no stone unturned in

LINCOLN COUNTRY CLUB RINGER
NEW YEAR'S EVE NITE was a thrill-provider to the pleasing
throng of professional and business men and women and members of
the younger set present at the Lincoln Couvntry Club house on Simp
son Road Despite a late start, the affair turned out to be personttied
paprika, J. Neal Montgomery, perched on that rickety stool, whipped
those ivories till they tinkled like glass. His hired hands were “right.”
Those boys took their wind instruments and “blew up a storm.” kdwin
Driskell “goosed” that sax till it burst into laughter. Lawrence Walker
got “happy!” The whole gang scored with that farnous Waltz Medley
THE FEMININES were as inviting as caviar, filet mignon, and
\\almt have you? (And caviar sells at eighteen simoleans a pound.)
Most of them wore blue gowns, pearls or some other kind of beads, and
a smile. Mrs. Lucile Harden flaunted a gown that played a mean tag
with the light from the lamps lined up about the wall Mr. and Mrs.
R. G. Gassett and Mr .and Mrs. R. L. Dobbs were out, and all were
togped for the occasion, The entire family of the Lena Street household
was present and in buoyant spirifs. Mr. Harold H Thomas can still trip
a mean pair of “dogs” on a hardwood floor. Mr J € Chunn can 'go’”
. too! The Rutledge sisters. Lois and Lawrence, were striking in gowns
: especially designated for the occasion. Mr. Howell A, Murphy, of the
Pitishureh COURIER, was formal to his finger-t1ps . and as immaculate
a5 an Adolphe Menjou. Miss Marion Grogan: the charming young
belle from Marietta, who was the guest of the I.cna stret Dobbses wa
a real gem to the occasion. Other gucests having more than an ordinary
share of fun were Leroy Credell, Greenc Wadley, Louise Parks, Mar
garet Wilson, Esther Jackson, J. W. Brown, Elois Johnson, Eric Rob-
SLrts and scores of others.
THE LINCOLN COUNTRY CLUB is one of the city's mos!
worthwhile organizations. Initiating more than a ycar ago the Club 1s
coming to be one of the reception centers of the local populace, Hav
ing a polf links as their major attraction. it is only natural that inter
ect in the Club should lag a bit in the colder months when the weather
is inclement for golf. But dollars to doughnuts the Lincoln Country
Club hits a stride during the warmer spring months that will make all
our wiscacres sit and take notice. The officers of the club are as tol
lows: J B IVEY nprésident CLARK BLUACKSHEAR, vice prexy,
BURREI.LL HEATH, sekky: and 1.ORENZO TISHER, trusty, while

THOMAS BARBER SHOP--COLLFEGE INN
YOUNG PROPRIETORS in the city are making their own
breaks, and they have learned that that's about the safest way to oper
ate a-business. The Thomas Barber Shop, corner of Auburn and Hil
liard, has made drastic cuts in its prices and already scores of Atlanta
folk journey there each day. Where else in the city can one get hair
cuts for two-bits, plain messages for two-bits, shaves and haircuts to
gether for thirty-five cents, cream massages for thirty-five cents,
shampoos for two-bits, shines for s nickel. and the whole job for one
dollar? Where else, T ask you. can you get a bargain like that?
AND THE COLLEGE INN, operated by “Pappy” O'Neal out in |
South Atlanta, is doing a real job in the food dispensary line. Good
food can be had at the Inn for the smallest prices one should want to
pay anywhere. A thoroughly good, and well rounded meal may be had
at O'Neal Inn for fifteen cents any day. Try it sometimes

WAKE UP, LUCIUS!
THE NAME OF MISS EDLYN BENTLEY was unintentionally
left out of the write-up of the Iota Phi l.amba Sorority’'s meeting,
which appeared on page two of the Sunday edition of the Atlanta
WORI.D. Miss Bentley is cne of the most likeable and most ecarnest
workeis of the sorority. To omit her name from a writc-up, cven un
intentionally, is a thing for which atonement is nearly impossible.
