People I Know By BLANCHE JONES The article below was sent to me by a friend of mine and I thought it so good that I am passing it on to you in its entirety. I don't know who wrote it or where the original copy came from but it doesn't mat ter. I think you can appreciate it without knowing all that. YOUTH Youth is not a time of life—it is a state of mind. It is not a mat- ter of ripe cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a temper of the will, a quality of the imagina tion, a vigor of the emotions; it is a freshness of the deep springs of life. Youth means a tempermental preponderance of courage over tim idity, of the appetite for adventure over love of ease. This often ex- ists in a man of fifty more than in a boy of twenty. Nobody grows old by merely li ving a number of years; people grow old only by destroying then- ideals. Years wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, doubt, self-dis- trust, fear and despair—these are the long, long years that bow the head and turn the growing spirit back to dust. Whether seventy or sixteen, there is in every being's heart the love of wonder, the sweet amaze- ment at the stars and the starlike things and thoughts, the undaunted challenge of events, the unfailing childlike appetite for what next, and the joy and the game of life. You are as young as your faith, as old as your doubt; as young as your hope, as old as your des- pair. I the central place of your heart there is a wireless station; so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage, grand- eur and power from the earth, from men and from the Infinite, so long are you young. When the wires are all down and all the central place of your heart is covered with the snows of pessimism and the ice of cynicism, then you are grown old indeed and may God have mercy on your soul. Five year old son of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. A. Hillhouse, of Holly Springs, is pictured above with his dog, "Spotty." Me. Stewards Are Entertained With Dinner on Friday The Rev. and Mrs. R. P.

I might tell you that Maxine Crisler's bridge club members were treated to a pleasant surprise on Thursday afternoon when she en- tertained them at her home—but I really believe that it didn't come as any great surprise to most of them. Perhaps the date was a new note but it has been known for such a long time that Macky and Charles Johnston would take the vows and Macky has had her very lovely ring for some three or four weeks but the announcement was cleverly made to a group of friends at the party. The color scheme of yellow and white was used with the date, No vember 18, tagged on the end of the yellow favors. A salad course was served in the form of a rose with the yellow petals and the white center. Sara (Mrs. Jack) Po- well and Florence (Mrs. Harry) Lawrence were popular out-of-town guests at the announcement party and no doubt they will be here of- ten during the coming weeks for the wedding festivities. And by the way—you may look for this announcement in the pa- pers at an early date. Wife Preservers them wash with cold water.

Its tiny Peter Pan collar is edged with pin- tucking which is used zigzag fash ion across the front of the blouse as well as on the sleeves. Tucks across the hips mold it nicely to the figure. The other model is a useful suede waistcoat, which comes in divine colors as contrast for a woolen frock or a tailored suit. A. A. Fincher Jr. Attending Telephone Meet in Chicago A. A.
