Large Crowd Attends Spring Dance Recital By Pupils Of Marion Rhyne A large crowd packed Lucy Cobb chapel Friday evening for the annual spring recital of the Marion Rhyne School of Dance. Runging from classic ballet numbers to modern popular steps, the program was varied enough to meet everyone’s taste and wishes. It was divided into two parts, and each part had a variety of numbers. Featuring Part 1, was the tap dance ‘by Sydney Thomas, Jr., which was given an ovation by the audithce; the picturesque “Little ~ Dutch Village,” which combined tap and pantomime, and the dance to a Bach prelude, which was worked out by the senior en semble, showing intelligent study, rhythm, and sense of form. Shirley Orr opened the second part of the program with a lovely ballet toe number, “Invitation to the Waltz.” Selma Epps, in a comedy dance, showed a flair for the comie, and at the same time poise and race. Instead of Field ing Dillard’s tap number, as pro grammed, Sydney Thomas, jr, presented the “Dagger Dance,” a rhythmic Indian study. The Rum ba rhythm, featuring a mixture of tap and carioca steps, was done by Sybil Thomas, Ruth. Johnson, Selma Epps and Shirley Orr, in Spanish costumes with red and yellow hats. Lloyd Florence, jr, sang “I Hate Myself” to his little dog, after which he danced an in tricate tap routine to the same melody, a number which brought rounds of applause from the spec tators, Letty Moran, Winder, was splen- W CONTRACT CLUB TO MEET WITH MRS.

Is he rested when he wakes, or is he still tired? Does he go to bed happily every night at the same hour, or does he tease you into letting him stay up late? Does he play hard all day without a rest so that he is too tired to sleep well at night, or does he get a daytime nap as well as a long peaceful night sleep? Does he go to sleep as soon as he gees to bed or does he lie awake turning and tossing? | “In ghort, is your child getting all the help frcm sleep that he should, or is Le struggling along on a starvation allowance .of sleep?”’ Tables for Sleep Before we go any further, let us look back and review the tables for sleep. Young baby—2o or 22 hours out of 24. Baby 3 monthc old—2o hours. Baby 6 month : old—l 2 hours at night: 2 hours morning; 2 hours afternoon. One-year-old — 12 hours at night; 1 long nap; or 2 shorter naps. Bvery little child—l 2 hours at night; 1 nap or rest . We can_substitute “13” hours for “12" in many cases. Bedtimé before six years should be about 6 p. m. . Bedtime after six years at about 7 o'clock. The*hour may be moved ahead slightly as the child grows, but 8 o'clock is not too early for the child of tem. And 9is a good round hour for those in Junior High or the first year of High school. A table of sleep is like any other rule for routine care, some thing that cannot be adhered to perfectly at all times; but being the most vulnerable of all stand ard schedules, it needs to be em phasized that nothing should in terfere with regular hours except illness or emergencies beyond fam ily control. In spring and summer it is sO easy to give in to coaxing. Nearly all children fight bedtime. But now that they are playing harder and longer, they need not only the full quota of sleep hours, but even more. Avoid Fatigue As to little children, the daily nap cannot be over-accented. The too-tired child either cannot sleep, or will sleep fitfully and uneasily at night. Habit is the best ally a mother can have. Every child should an ticipate his regular bedtime. A half hour before, his exciting play should be stopped. Ten minutes before, bedtime should be mention ed. He won't be jerked willingly off to bed on the instant, so give him just a bit of time. But don’t argue or let him argue. See that he is comfortable, has all his night supplies and his toilet needs attended to before his door is closed. Then don’t allow him THiI BANNER-HERALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA Mrs. Andy Davis was the guest of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Lov ern of High Shoals, last week. * - - Mr. and Mrs. Dan.

Watch out for By MARIAN YOUNG NEA Service Staff Correspondent NEW YORK--If you pay atten tion to the fashion tips gleaned from the smart crowds at the Preakness and the Belmont race track, you'll put your money on linen to win, cotton to place and silk with tweed topcoats to show for the rest of the summer racing season. For the maost part, the linen around the fashionable tracks will be the heavy, uncrushable kind that lends itself well to suave tail oring—some monotone, of course, but many printed, striped, check ed and plaided designs. A big percentage of the most charming ones will have plain blouses and jackets, The two-piece sports dress shown at the left is a perfect race track fashfon. Made of heavy white linen with self buttons down the front of the bodice and on each of the four enormous patch pockets, it has a plain round neckline and el- bow-length sleeves. The bottom of the blouse is finished with silver clips that clamp over the calf belt through gyelets on the skirt band. The Ascot tie—little brown horses printed on a red background—and the linen hat with pleated crown are amusing and flattering acces sories., The new cottons, particularly the heavy varieties that are simply perfect around race tracks, come in intricate printed designs in bright colors as well as in neutral tones that are meant to be worn with bright jackets and short coats. The outfit (right) of imported cotton includes a white skirt, brown and yellow plaid jacket with a white background and a white blouse that has a matching plaid panel down the front and a plaid Ascot tie. The three-quarters Ilength jac ket is loosely cut and finished with large brown buttons to match the belt on the blouse. The jaunty little linen hat 'is trimmed with a brown and yellow feather fancy.
