Halifax County Pageant at
Weldon Next Week

Halifax County will have a
chance to forget the hard times
and get back into the old time
spirit of confidence and good
cheer when the crowds come into
Weldon for the big pageant on
the afternoon on May 9th.

be the history of Halifax County,
the scenes being designed to
show the history of the County
from early Indian days, through
the period of the pioneer settlers,
the Revolution, the civil war life,
on down to the present.
Our heroic forefathers wrought
out the Halifax County of today
by manfully facing the difficult
problems of their day. Shall we
fall short of courage, energy,
and good cheer? Itis hoped that
Halifax County citizens will in
terest themselves in aiding the
matter of publicity, inviting their
neighbor friends to come to We'll
don for this occasion, Let's all
meet together and renew our
spirits by living over again great
epochs in the history of our
County.

Interest still centers on sweaters
and sweater coats-for everybody
wears them. These garments of wool
or silk are closely or loosely knitted
according to the degree of warmth re-
quired of them. Tle-on and slip-on
models that set snugly to the figure
rival the smart loose-hanging sweater
coats and everything appears to be
provided with knitted gIrdle or sash.
The pretty model pictured reveals the
trend towsrd neat effects.
