I Committee Has Hard Task in Naming ‘Two Prettiest and Brightest’’ Young Women. To oe designated “the two prettiest ■ and brightest" girls in a Sunday school i in w hich are scores of pretty and bright girls is an honor calculated to bring a great big. broad smile to the faces of most any two girls. Such a distinction Is borne proudly today by two members of the Woodward Avenue Baptist Sun day school-—Miss Tra. 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 rious 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 chobsing the two girls, and this task ■ 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 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 ciiosen. Sunday morning the two smiling girls were called to the platform by Super intendent C. H. Bolton, of the Sunday I school, and took their stand beside a I table* bearing a great heap of blue rib bon bows. As each donor then came forward with a contribution, the two girls pinned on a bow. And that they came fast is attested by the sqrt that 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 I daughter of Luther H. Still, lives at 628 ! I Woodward avenue. I BRIDGE TO LINK ISLE OF PALMS TO CHARLESTON I CHARLESTON. S. C„ Dec.
