NEW YORK, Aug. 2s.-(U. PD-
Grandma is going to grow up again
| Not much perhaps but some.
Women are the chameleons the hu-
| man race. Men have looked like
! wholesale ioh-luts since the days when
they left off white wigs and baby blue
silk breeches But women are the
privileged sex who are entitled to
change their mode of dressing as often
as they change their minds.
This fall will mark the finish of the
Flapper era. We will pass from kit
tenish age where women of maturity
pranced out in swaddling clothes into
an age Of dignity and poise. The APP
parent age of the average American
woman will raise from a battling aver
age of eighteen years to one OF TWEEN
ty-five. Raby stares will no longer
hob-noh with galushes.
Already the girl who displays per-
fcCtly good gauzc stockings on perfect
dimplcd knees is being passed up for
the grille whose long satin skirts leave
something to the Imagination. The
new girl is rather a vampish looking
liule Thing lacking the boyishncss Of.
the campus type OF last year for long
skirts are strictly feminine affairs.
Like HalCy'g comet the flapper will
pass 10 a beyond that few Of MS will
see again. Certainly few Of us will
ever be intimately engaged in Tapping
again. The flappcr may return but

THE GAMBLER CONVERTED

The revival meeting which is be-
ing conducted by Rev. H. B. Moore,
col. evangelist of Wilmington, is
still in progress. H. T. Bowser, a
chief among the gamblers, an ex-
prisoner and known in this commu-
nifty by his sinful life, was converted
last Wednesday night. On the next
night he came to the church and gave
up his gamblers outfit. Last night
he was married to Bertha knight by
the pastor. H. T. Bowser, the con-
verted gambler, has a burning desire
that all gamblers and wicked persons
turn from their wickedness. The
testimony of this converted gambler
should be heard by everybody in
Wilson. He will be at the Taber-
nacle Baptist Church each night this
week to tell what the Lord has done
for him.

from the hill on a scene that hal
many counterrarts in the west.
A quarter-mile out from the base
OF the hill was a tiny fire, beyond
which lay a hog.tied calf. Beyond
the calf a man sprawled behind the
body OF a pony. He was aiming a
rifle at another man ensconced be.
low a cutbauk bordering a small
creek. This second man was not
clearly visible.
Between this man and the man be.
hind the pony were three hundred
yards Of ground as flat as a floor.
Billy swept, the background OF the

There are two horses tied behind
a windfall alongside those rocks.

Dawson, pointing fifty yards down
