severely injured by one of the
Lakin players who struck him in
the mouth with serious results
The Lakin player Logan. and

ness. Carl Smeltzer was substi-

COMMERCIAL CLUB rEAsrs

The, Commercial Club held the
third of 4 series of banquets at
their rooms last Thursday evening
About 60 or 20 sat at the tables to
be served by the Baptist ladies
The menu consiste of oysters
stewed and raw, crackers. chicken
sandwiches, pickles, celery. coffee
and pie. Animal crackers mounted
on vanilla waters were the favors.
The four young men walters clos
ed the feast with some mental
pabulum-an alphabet dialogue in
which names of members were
woven into the recitation
Sam Smith who arranged the
program also presided, calling up
on c. o. Virgin to lead the singing
for the evening
Mr. Gahagan, Division freight
agent of the Santa Fe, was present
and spoke in a highly complimen,
tary way of the fame of our Club
up and down the Valley. "As go.
getters and progressives your Club
is putting Holly on. the map, he
said.
James Adkins OF the High school
Editor of the Hollyhock, spoke on
the relation of the Commercial
Club to the High School. He EN-
phasized the fact that the mel
who represent the Commercial
Club are the supporters of Educa-
tion in Holly and make our fine
school system possible. He thank
ed the Club for their support OF

We are trying to be worthy of
your uDport," he said, by working

banquet, however, was the address

to the many splendid speeches that
have been given in the Club rooms.
to say that this was. without
doubt the best address of the kind
ever given in the club. 80 far as
the writer was able to judge. He
responded to the toast, What is
the matter with Holly?"'
He said nothing is the matter
with Holly If anything is wrong
it must be you or |. If we are
blue, it is because we talk to each
other pessimistically till Old Man
Gloom possesses us. We have
more reason to rejoice than many.
We should look on the bright
side and talk up cnditions and not
talk our community down. The
reaction from the peak of the
war times has left us gloomy yet,

It's DreSSmaker Who Says So, Too
BY MARIAN HALE

Are you scanning the fashion
books?
Are you window shopping:
Are you saving out of your family
household allowance?
All, of course, for your Easter style
splurge.
If so, take a word of advice from
Peggy Hoyt, the fashionable New York
costumer. whose hats and frocks are in
demand by the best dressed women of
society and the stage. She knows
whereof she speaks.
Don't buy too much" she urges.
"Stop and plan before you spend.
Build your wardrobe as whole, not
bit by bit Plan it as you would a
house, beginning with the basement.
Choose Color Scheme.
Decide on a color scheme for the
season for all your costumes that VIII
be harmonious and in one key. PEI
haps you'll want the national color.
navy blue, to predominant, relieved by
biege and gr0y-the two most beau
tiful shades for the American woman.
Then your shoes and hats will
match any of your costumes and you
will not need a large number of ac.
cessories, as you do when each cos
tune is unit by itself.
1.-The trouble is, most women buy
too many clothes, too casually and too
carelessly. They have SO much 10
select from that they never develop
an individual style. They make bad
c mbinations or else never complete
each costume to the point of distinc-
ton.
Plan and Think.
For that reason | honestly believe
that women with limited incomes Learn
to dress better than their sisters whose
purses have no bottoms, because they
have to plan and think.
That's absolutely essential TO gooc
dressing.
Get over the idea that lots Of
clothes are necessary in a wardrobe.
They aren't. But let everything sou
own count. It's the gowns you buy
and don't wear that are extravagant.
not the one for which you pay good
price, but are satisfied with and wear
with pleasure as long as you have it.
Three good dresses are better than
a wardrobe full of cheap or poorly Sc
lected ones
Simple and Elegant.
True elegance is always achieved by
simplicity. Miss Hoyt believes.
"A well dressed woman always can
walk down the street without attract
ing attention to herself" she says,
but she is always noticeable among
well dressed women for the perfection
Of her lines and fabrics.
