girl on this side of the Mason
Dixon line. Rose Mary Roberson
and Henry Gray are building their
stairway to the sky. Irma Pearl
is getting famous with the sopho
more cats, especially Herbert Por
ter. What would happen if Lena
Johnson would stop hearing from
Sgt. A. J. Cooks and let him write
Clara T. Crossley a few letters?
We think Lena Johnson lias the
best go although she hasn't seen
him but once. Mae Riddles don’t
seem to get around much since she
faded out of Duce’s picture.
Wake up Bessena, talking to him
won’t do any good now—Gladys
has him under her control. “As
long as you’re not in love with
any one else, why don’t you fall in
love with me’’ says Jessie Walker
to Johnny Gilmore. W. L. Ray is
going girl crazy, isn't he Emma
Robinson? Wake up Gertrude, Reed
is coming on with Hattie Morgan.
Mary Collins seems to be rocking
the dreamboat of Moon Diggs, won
der what’s Marne Ellis’ and Melba’s
story?
Mary Newton says, “Let him go
and God bless him’’ and Laura Mae
can have him, cause she has found
her somebody new.
Emma D. Bryant seems to be get
ting on sometime with her soldier.
Why is it that we don’t hear Ma
rie Brown and Ann Cook talking
about Michael and Dixie any more?
Pauline Markham has been whist
ling “Blues In the Air” since Dud
left. Elois Berry and Ethel Mitch
ell are really on the ball. Alma
Richardson requests that her friends
stop worrying about her because
“she'll get by.” Why is it that all
the boys have stopped talking to
their girl friends at noon since they
heard the announcement?
FOUR ACTORS KNEW
FILM’S AUTHORESS
HOLLYWOOD.—A fourth mem
ber of Paramount's “Frenchman’s
Creek” location troupe has been
found who knew author Daphne du
Maurier when she was a child. He
is Charles Coleman, the footman of
the story, who added his reminis
censes to those of Basil Rathbone,
Sir Cedric Hardwicke and Nigel
Bruce, all of whom knew the du
; Maurier family.
Tattling Tess—
Since Earl Frank King appeared
on the scene, Dorothy Jefferson's
life seems to be complete, there’s
no room at all for James Tompson,
maybe that’s why he was looking
so sad Sunday.
Fess up Bessie Mae Jones, who
are you in love with. Clarence Tay
lor or Ned Washington?
Tomizene Haygood and J. T. are
really in the groove while C. L.
j Love is away, better slow down
Tomizene, C. L. will be back you
know.
What has happened to Willie Ree
and C. W. Wren, do you suppose
Willie Ree has decided to get a
boyfriend who has enough pride
to have money enough to at least
take her in the dance on Sundays?
A cute hepcat out west Jackson is
trying to cut in on C. W.
We have at last found out who
James Cheaten loves—her name is
Minnie Ruth Butler.
Is it Harry Cobbs or William Ar
nold, Mary Ann London?
Edna Buckner and Peter Man are
getting on some time, wonder whats'
Paul Taylor’s story.
Cute Couples of the Week:
Geneva Jenkins and Len Roe
buck. Clairessa Washington and L.
Sparkman. Carrie Mae Brown and
Ruby Hart. Annie Sparkman and
Willie Golden. Mattie Atkinson and
Tommy Jackson. Haggie Nickols

What’s up, Christine Dozier has
condescended to come out to the
Skating Rink, she and other chicks
from -T. C. Don't tell us that they
are about to find out that practi
cally the same groups who go to
the T. C. dances goes to the Skating
Rink too, that is, when they can
get the 45c.
Mary Lou Sampson is strictly a
money woman, she goes around
playing Lady Bountiful . . .
It seemed to have done Albert
Hart a lot of good to let a certain
chick buy his ticket for the dance
two Sundays ago. However, he
wasn’t fooling- us much, we thing
that maybe he gave Alvena the
money to buy both her’s and his
ticket.
Willie and Mary Bass started out
on the wrong foot Sunday, she
bought her ticket and he bought his
for the dance, but love like their’s
can’t withstand the sweet hot music
as was played Sunday by the or
chestra, augmented by the super
dupper sax playing Babe Ruth, and
