THE BES
Stylish
Clothes
you've ever seen.

You must not forget that the
two most important things
about the clothes you'll buy
this fall are quality and style;
or style and quality, if you
prefer that order of words.
Style determines how the
clothes look on you. Quality
determines how much service
you'll get from the clothes. 1t
involves the kind of fabrics
used, the way the tailoring is
done, the other materials used;
all the things that give dura-
bility and long life to the gar
ments.

CEDAR BLUFF SCHOOL EXER-
CISES

(Receivcd too late for last issue.)
The closing exercises of the High
School have just past, and another
school year has gone into history
While the first part of the year was
greatly INSTRUCTED on accent of the
flu, taken as a whole, there has never
been a more successful and satsfac-
tory school taught in our town than
during the past year. The Principal,
Mss Ina Kegley, of Wytheville, Va,
had associated with her Misses Mary
Moss, Music Teacher, Gathleen Whit,
Mary Brown and Pearl Mcclure. Each
one. in her sphere was superior to the
others. All gave the entire satisfac-
ton to the patrons and the pupils
The entertainment they gave at the
close would have been crediatble to
school of much larger pretentions.
The Commencement sermon was
preached by Rev. ]. NJ. Grove, D. D..
of Tazewell, His theme was: False
and True Ideals. For learning, wit,
humor, pathos every element of real
oratory ono rarely if ever hears it's
equal.
1t is the earnest wish of the citizens
that the entire faculty will be return
ed for another year.
The pastor of the church made him
selful useful in the presentation of
numerous prizes.
