~ r A iUu>e FOR BETTER shoes uo i o uauey s for less money Oxford Jail In Use Last Week For Fin t Time In Years Oxford has n notorious tree, a world (famous college, and traditions tlimt will always follow Emory moil. All of then** have IsH*n (given <lue consideration by men who have sis*nt hours dt*sorib.ng them. There is one, though, few jieoplc have mentioned, lieoause a jail hold.' no place in Emory’s moral standing. Why this town should have a "cool er” has been a puzzle for years, hut nevertheless it was done and today remains a lonesome sentinel on tltp property of one of the village's most illustrious citizens. The writer was informed that the contractor for this structure was the first to occupy tin* dismal building af ter being captured -drunk. In a few days lie was freed and the jail collect ed dust for a number of years. Last week a negro became enraged, nttackisl his wife, and shortly there after found himself confined to tin* Oxford “hoosegow” un|dcr the firm hand of our renowned “City Police Department.’’ It is hinted, o r rather rumored, tlmi Henry Stone, of the Oxford Transport and What-Ilave-You Cos., hurried to Covington to find oil for the doors of the jail when he heard the negro would he his backyard overnight visitor. A number of students will recall a P certain Thanksgiving a few years ago when "The Jail” was an object, of fear to ail freshmen. They will probably remember Ihirty-three boys barked behind its rusty portals struggling for the window where fresh air and “Old Men” might hi" encountered. The keen surface of a number of garrison belts will also dwell in the “New Men’s” minds as a pain for a passing moment —then pleasure —as the realization dawned that the “Old Men’s initiation or Thanksgiving was over. EGGSHELL MOIRE IS MATERIAL TRANCING frocks for the young misses are in some of the most alluring modes ever shown. New fash ions have n way of coming first In the evening, and perhaps later may come Into prominence for daytime wear. Some of the more Important of the new evening silhouettes that Paris has produced, and which smart Parislennes, native and foreign, are affecting, ap pear ns a subtly molded tube, reach ing almost to the knees, below which point all kinds of enchanting frills and flares are an added feature. It is not uncommon for these additions to continue down to the ankles, since evening frocks are much longer than the daytime dress. In the majority of these elaborate formal gowns, belts, sashes, bows and other features Indi cating n waistline are forgotten, and Ihe only semblance of a waistline is that accorded by u slight blouse which appears In the normal position. Another smart evening design makes u disappearing waistline its center of cldc through the assistance of flaring pcpluin, or a series of soft puffs from the wuistline to the hips. Much lias been done by Paris to straighten out the uneven hemline, und the bems are frequently cut straight around, or nearly straight. If Divisions of Poetry The three principal classes of poetry are epic, dramatic and lyric. An epic poem is n long narrative poem dealing with events In tlie life of the hero or heroine. For example, “Evangeline" and “The Eneld” nre epics. A lyric is n brief poem which expresses the* sentiment of the pool. As Or. Wil liam \. Wilbur ex-pressed It, “An epic is always the story of someone other than the poet.” Tills Is contrary to tlie lyric. The word “drama" means the deed. A dramatic poem Is one the emphasis In which is upon action. Silent on His Marriage Sir Thomas Bodley, founder of the famous Bodleian llbrnry at Oxford, was married, for lie set up a monu ment to ids wife, relates May Irena Oopingcr In an article in the Calll more Sun, yet In his autobiography Sir Thomas does not mention marriage at nil, and there is nothing to indicate whether this was because Mistress Bodley was too much of a “domestical impeachment,” or too much of a non entity to recall herself to mind when her lord and master engaged himself with tlie important questions of life. Strike for the Goal Whatever your goal may be, strike out for It! What If you do fall? What If you die In the attempt? Well, li you put every shred of yourself into the attempt, you will have had life’s one great exhilarating and soui-satis fylng experience anyhow! And when you start out to pursue your dreams, Ire prepared for a great discovery. It’s (lie effort itself timt will give you peace. This peace goe with you ns you grow older, becomes your choicest companion, never leaves you. Wresting this peace from a troubled world Is about all there is to the secret of happiness.—Ralph Waldo Emerson. Time to Dodge Naturally, the pedestrian views with alarm the fact that a car is uow within the reach of every man —Lit tle Rock (Ark.) Gazette dipped they are dipped in points all around, or in back and front on the same skirt, or in large squared panels at the sides. The hack droop, so far as Paris is concerned, lias been placed in Ihe background. The separate type of dresses for evening wear continue to drop from the high waist by way of circular godets or tiers to some fashion of ir regular hemline. Among favored colors used for danc ing frocks are blue, onpuclne, char treuse, pink, black and white, and the many varying shades of those colors. White, ns ever, is much In demand, and it comes in many shades. A charming dancing frock, shown in the illustration, is of eggshell moire. A basque type waist, considerably longer at the back, enhances a full gathered skirt with pointed, uneven hemline, and noticeably longer at the sides Instead of the overdone long hack. Snug fitting armholes, a pointed neck, and live dainty tailored hows at the front of the waist give the gown a tailored effect, especially suitable to moire. A large how of self material is fastened at the hack, giving a hustle effect JULIA BOTTOM I. ICY. (©, 1929. Western Newspaper Union t THE ROCKDALE REcukd, luNYERS, GEORGIA Players of Trombone Give It Various Names The names of musical Instruments ns they appear In different languages are often very misleading. Most Americans coming ncross a reference in Hutch to n “bnzuin” would readily Imagine tills to lie n bassoon. They would, however, lie quite wrong, for it Is what in England, France, Raly and America Is called n trombone, though the bass Instrument is some times in France called tho snequebuse, which shows its connection with the old instillment most people know only through the psalms, called Ihe sack hnt. Its German name is posaune, a name that is sometimes used In Eng land for an organ slop which lias the same kind of tone ns the trombone and trumpet. Curiously, while trom bone is a word of Latin origin and posaune and bnzuin nre old Teutonic, it is more than likely that these lat ter words also originated in the old Roman bucinn, n shell-shaped trumpet or horn. WeatHerwise Spider The spider seems to possess an un canny knowledge of the coming weath er and it makes use of this In the manipulation of its webs. If the day Is to lie fair and qnict the strands supporting tlie webs are far flung. It Is not an uncommon tiling to find that, from the center of a web to the point where the extremities of the threads are attached will be three feet oi even more. This is, of course, an ad vantage to have the web ns fully ex tended ns possible, for then the chances that flies will blunder into the entanglement are increased. Some hours in advance of the coming ol wind and rain the spider will be hard at work shortening the strands which support the web.
