THE All CLUB GIRLS
MEET AT OCEAN CITY
Second Annual Camp Outing Great
Success. Three Days Spent
On The Beach.

The All Club Girls of Worcester
County had their second annual camp
outing at Ocean City from June to
8. Twelve girls were brought by their
parents and friends to the beach on
Tuesday afternoon, that they might
enjoy this happy occasion. A six
o'clock picnic lunch on the sand was
d very delightful hour for all.
The absence of other girls who We're
entitled to attend the camp because
of their excellent work through the
Year, brought many expressions of
regret from those in attendance
Through letters received by the club
leader from those who found at the
last moment that they could not at
tend, because of their urgent needs
at home, the All club spirit of cour-
age and unselfishness was shown.
At 7.15 each evening the club girl;
and beach visitors gathered for YES
per services. These were conducted
hT Blanche Reid, Frances Hancock
and Gladys Bull. Talks were made
to the girls by Revs. Mcclure, Smith
and Burke each giving to the girls
visions of their future. The high
ideals and beautiful life that were
laid before them will have lasting
impressions. After these services tn
$50 the evenings were spent in in
spirational club songs and games for
rental training. Those receiving priz-
es for the best memory tests were.
Elizabeth Laws and Sara Lynch o.
Ocean City and Frances Hancock OF
Glrdletree.
Miss Adice S. Jones, State Girls
Club Agent gave athletic exercises
impressing upon the girls the neces
sity of such to make a healthy body.
I1er instructions in hat making We're
very interesting and each girl took
home with her a hat made by her
own hands.
Mrs. Bell, District Agent, gave 4
talk on health. The girls were weigh
ed and measured and those who Were
found above and below normal were
taught what was necessary to bring
themselves up to normal. She also
taught them how to raise poultry for
croft, giving them a demonstration
in culling their poultry flock.
Miss Venia M. Kellar, State Homo
Demonstration Agent, gave the girls
an inspiratlonal talk on Thursday
evening.
On Friday afternoon in the State
school building an exhibit of club
work was made and a program in
Guiding Pageant, "The Spirit of the
Home" was presented by the club
girls and their club friends formed
among the Ocean City girls, to
large audience.
In high appreciation of these three
days of inspiration and happiness the
club girls and their county leader,
Miss Walter. extend to Mr.. and Mrs,
o. D. Collins and the members of the
County Woman's Club their sincere
gratitude for shelter at Tourists Inn
and the aid in financing the camp.

WHEN THEY ARE TARDY

TT IS perfectly natural thing to feel
that when a person whom you en-
ploy to work for you for stated hours
is tardy, you are being deprived of
what is rightfully yours. That is, of
course, if you propose to and do pay
for full-time work. However, it is not
the easiest thing in the world to
correct person for hardness or to
correct the tardy habit without giving
offense.
1t may be that the woman who
washes for you is due to come at eight
and does not appear until half-past
nine. What are you going to do about
it? Or it may be that the woman who
sews by the day is little late every
day she comes, thus in the course of a
season really depriving you of many
hours Of service for which you have
actually paid. 1t may be, too, that the
typist or telephone operator in your

The fad for naming babies by the
name of the month in which they were
born probably brought May into vogue.
The sudden spring to fame of April as
a feminine name is another instance
and August is so honored by Augusta.
1t is a curious fact that no other
language has an equivalent for May,
whether she is derivative of Mar
garet or separate entity. Only the
Scotch, which evolved her by the
former theory, possess her; even Eng
land had to accept her as new name
in the language.
Because of her possible dual origin,
Nav is the lucky possessor of two
talismanic gems. Either the pearl of
nuritv or the emerald of prophecy will
prove lucky stone for her. The
former gives her charm and friends,
the latter intelligence, and prophetic
vision. Sunday is her lucky day and
Eve her lucky number.

DIVORCE RING" THE LATEST
Fad Recently Adopted by Those Freed
From the Marital Tie by Court
Proceedings.

From time immemorial woman has
worn on the third finger of her left
hand a plain band of gold as a symbol
of her honOred position of wifehood.
And when death takes from her the
partner of her life she signifies her
loss and grief by wearing appropriate
garb.
But in what a different manner to-
day the widow Of the present, that is,
the one who by the sanction of the
courts, has resigned her job as wife,
makes known to all the world her re-
neWed state of single blessedness. For
the grass widow of today has just
adopted the latest Of fads, the "di-
vorce ring" This jeweled symbol of
the severance of the marital tie takes
the place Of the former gold band. 1t
is made of gold or platinum on which
is mounted broken Cupid's bow at
the end Of which is set jewel to rep
resent a divorce. Should the wearer
once more embark on the matrimonial
seas and again come to wreck then
another jewel is added to indicate the
second divorce, and so on.

"SHALL | TRAvEL7"

A MONG the questions that are
most frequently asked Of the
reader of the hand, and, therefore,
that deserves the most careful con-
sideration, is this: "Shall / travel?"
The desire to travel and see strange
cities and countries is universal, and
practically everyone wishes to know
whether he or she will be able to
crafty it.
Now, there are two distinct ways
Of answering the question, in the read
ing of the hand. In the first place,
we may consult the so-called travel
or voyage" lines, which are lines
more or less heavy on Luna, or ex-
tending from the rascette or bracelet
upon the mount of Luna, or the moon,
which lies on the outside Of the palm,
toward the wrist; also the horizontal
lines on Luna. The other method of
reading voyages in the hand is by
means Of the little hair-lines that
leave The line of life and travel with
1t down the hand.
If che voyage line on Luna is long,
extending perhaps, in very rare cases,
even to the mount of Jupiter, below
the first finger, very long voyage,
indeed, may be foretold or indicated.
The length of the voyage will, in
fact, be proportional to the length
of the line. (Copyright)

MADE FOR EMPEROR'S TABLE
Massive Silver Set Ordered by Ma
poleon | Put on Exhibition at
New York. !

The massive silver set of 919 pieces
ordered by Napoleon l, during tho
hundred days, delivered after his abb
dication to Louis XVIII, and used by
the French royal family at Tuileries
palace from 1915 to 1880, has been
placed on exhibition in New York.
Two bullet holes in the soup tureen
bear evidence of the revolutions it has
passed through. Each article bears
the Bourbon coat of arms, the tieur
de lis surmouIited with the crown and
is stamped with the official govern
ment mark, the mark of the chief
craftsman and of the guild. Napoleon
| ordered this set of silver from Bien-
nails on his return to France from his
first exile on the island of Elba. 1t
was made during the hundred days of
Napoleon's second reign, but before it
could be delivered Napoleon was
forced to abdicate and was again ex-
lied this time to end his days on st.
Helena. Louis XVIII, his successor,
paid Biennais for the silver and had
the Bourbon coat Of arms placed on
it. The set of silver passed finally to
the heirs of the due de Chambord and
through them has come to North
America.

office takes advantage of the fact that
you yourself do not appear at your Of
flee until half-past nine and does not
come until that time, although you
employ her from nine o'clock each day
and really wish to have her in the Of
flee at that time.
How are you going to make these
people come on time without giving
offense?
In the first place, remember that it
seldom does any good to show irrita-
ton over the situation. Nor is it a
good plan to hint at your displeasure
by looking reproachfully at the clock.
Often it is a good plan with the per-
son who works by the day merely to
ask to put the work on an hour basis.
That is, to have a seven or eight-hour
day and to time the day from the
time of arrival. This is only fair.
Moreover, it is plan that drives the
lesson Of promptness home with the
least possible argument.
However, one must always distin-
guish between kinds of service rem
dered. 1t is only fair to be more
lenient about hardness to the worker
who works especially rapidly or who
makes up through added industry for
time lost in this way.
And one thing remember. The en-
ployer takes the attitude very often
that any excuse for hardness is ex-
aggeration or fabrication. Railroads
do strike, surface cars do block and
bad weather does delay transportation.
Remember this and give the people
who work for you the benefit of a
doubt.

Washington, July .1-- The report that Senator Pat Harr-- son of Mississippi would make speeches in Missouri for Senator James A.

The report was published In Missouri, and has also heen used for political purposes in Mississippi, where former Sena- tor Varadman is trying to return to Washington.
 Report Unf0nnded
 The secretary of Senator Harrison issued the following statement to- night: Senator Harrison is in NeS England making a few speeches and enjoying a much needed rest. The re- port that he Is to speak for Senat ,r Reed or in anywise to take part in the Missouri primary is without foundation. Many requests from Missouri and other states have been received for speeches and statements for this or that candidate But Senn- tor Harrison without exception has answered that he could not or would not interfere in democratic contesrs outside of his own state."

Resolution Filed Condemning Action of Harding Toward

By HUGH ". ROBERTS Washington Bureau, The Agc-HeraIu.
 k0u DANtaanu HuilIfnH.


 Washington, D. C., July 2l.-(spe- eiaD Senator J. Thomas Heflin, of Alabama, offered resolution today which would put the Senate on rec ord as condemning the act of W. P. c. Harding, governor of the federal reserve board in suggesting to fed- eral reserve banks that they circulate speech delivered last January by Senator Carter Glass. of Virginia, defending the administration of the federal reserve act.
 Postpone Action.
 Sen. Mclean. of Connecticut, chair nance objected to the immediate consideration was postponed. It is regarded as certain that 1t will never be considered by unanimous consent and probable that it is al- ready dead.
 It is thought that Senator lief lln's object was to precipitate the fight against Harding which he in- tends making should the President reappoint Harding a member of the federal reserve board. If his resolu- ton could prevail, the President, it is evident, wouli not reappoint man whom the Senate had already formally. criticized fer an official act.
 Senator Heflin Is very bitter against Governor Harding, likewise a democrat and an Ala bamian. It is certain that unless Harding is re- appointed q republican will get the job.
