I Committee Has Hard Task in t
Naming “Two Prettiest and
Brightest” Young Women.
t
To be designated “the two prettiest <
and brightest” girls in a Sunday school ■
in which are scores of pretty and bright <
girls is an honor calculated to bring a i
great big, broad smile to the faces of i
most any two girls. Such a distinction
is borne proudly today by two members >
of tlic Woodward Avenue Baptist Sun- 1
dai school- Miss Ira Jarrell and Miss '
Edna Still —who also are members of
the Girls High school. '
Misses Jarrell and Still are chosen
by a committee of eight men of the
| Sunday school, known as “the myste- '
rions committee," for the reason that ‘
their names have not been made public. (
When it was determined a few days (
. ago to raise a special fund In the school
the movers agreed on a pleasant sur
prise for the donors—blue ribbons of '
honor would be pinned on each by the
two prettiest and brightest girls in the
■ Sunday school. Then came the problem
of choosing the two girls, and this task
I finally was left to a secret committee of
eight men.
Committeemen willing to serve were
not easily found, but, after many ex
cuses had been heard, the eight men
finally were corralled and sent out “to
1 do their duty.”
It was no easy job by any means, but,
' after a thorough canvass of the school
and a careful scrutiny of the many
pretty girls, the committee reached a
verdict.
Miss Jarrell and Miss Still then were
notified that they had been chosen.
Sunday morning the two smiling girls
were called to the platform by Super
intendent C. H. Bolton, of the Sunday
school, and took their stand beside a
[ table bearing a great heap of blue rib
bon bows. As each donor then came
. forward witli a contribution, the two
I girls pinned on a bow. And that they
i came fast is attested by the fact that
1 100 persons left the building wearing
bows.
Miss Jarrell is a daughter of Mrs.
Mittie E. Jarrell and lives at 539 Wood
ward avenue. Miss Still, who Is a
daughter of Luther H. Still, lives at 628
Woodward avenue.
