Pleased wero friends of lf"rion
G. Love, i'm 1926, when he married
Miss Margaret Foreman, one OF
the towns most popular young
society women. Surprised were
these friends when Mr.. Love went
to Reno lat year and secured
divorce. Shocked were they Tues

again married his eX-wiie and
thus completed the cycle.

went wrong. The bride returned tc

Then Marion Love, heartbroKen

The most common belief Is that
Mr.. Aydlett is getting old and wish
es to get rid of some OF his imam
cial responsibilities. Mr.. Aydlett
has many such responsibilities, not
the least of which is the New
Southern Hotel which he built Tor
spite upon the community. which
has never made any money for him
and probably never will and which
this weel; was damaged BY fire to
the extent OF close to $4,000. AND
unconfirmed rumor has it that Mr..
Aydlett not only resigned as vice.
president of the Savings Bank bus
haS offered his stock for sale.
Another common belief Is that his
resignation came about because OF
a tiff between Mr. Aydlett and other
officers or directors of the bank. Mr..
Aydlett is heady, obstinate and self
willed. If he can't have things ms
own way he doesn't want them at
all. Someone may have crossed his
path. refused to do his bidding, OF
acted against his wishes, thus calis-
ing the petuIant Mr. Aydlett to re-
sign his position in the bank.
Of it may be that some of the Of
ficers or directors of the bank be-
came peeved at Mr.. Aydlett, told him
where to get off at, incurred his
wrath. Mr. Aydlett once was a
director of the First 6; Citizens Ma
tional Bank, did not please other
directors and officers. was in some
way disposed Of.
Mr.. Aydlett was an original direc-
tor of the Savings Bank, having
been such since 1908 Ever since the
bank was founded. Mr.. Aydlett has
aspired to be its president, He
wanted to be, as the TWO Black
Crows would say, "the head man in
that show" But Mr. P. H. Williams
! occupied the position of head man
and there is very little satisfaction
! in serving as vice president OF any
concern of which Mr. Williams may
be president. MIR. Aydlett watched
and waited for a chance to super
cede Mr.. williams. When Mr.. VII.
/ liams entered politics several year
ago, E. F.. Aydlett thought his grea
chance had come. He began
vision himself sitting at the des
of the banks president. But M
Williams, after a few years OF POI
tics, was politely shelved by Cover
nor O. Max Gardner, who had ltts
use for him. And Mr.. Aydlett
hope again went gllmmer!ng. Ano
that may be the reason for his re-
signation.
But whatever the cause may be,
the fact remains that Mr. E. F. Ayd-
lett suddenly and Unexpectedly re-
signed as vice president of the Saw
ings Bank e. Trust Company after
having been connected with the
bank for more than a quarter OF a
century. Mr.. Aydlett, cautious, gave
the bank directors no reason for his
resignation, stated that he remains
on good terms with the bank.
Directors and officers Of the bank
also cautious, would make no state
ments concerning MIR. Aydlett's re-
!. signation.

SUN TAN FAD MAY
 /. BE BASIL 0VERDONE
Moderation in Acquiring Fash ionable Skin Shading Advised

That the present fad for sun-tan may have it's dangers, was the warning made recently by Dr. Shir- ley w. Wynnc. commissioner of health of New York city, in a speech which was widely broadcast.
 He pointed out that, although sun bathing is an essential health measure, over-eXposure to the suns rays is certain to be injurious. Many persons. he said. are abusing them selves in their desire to acquire too quickly the fashionable coat of tan.
 When d person in the sun gets d peculiar sort of headaChc,' he said "becomcs dizzy or nauseated or no- tices that his skin is hot and dry. and that he is not perspiring as usual, it means that he must get out of the sun-and get out of it at once. If he pays no attention to these warnings, he will suddenly become unconscious and drop in his tracks"
  described by Dr. Wynne, consists first in calling a doctor, then bring ing down the temperature of the patient by means of ice water, ice packs, cold sprays, ice bags and cool spongcs. The patient must rest for many days, avoiding the sun, and preventing over heating of the body.
 The most valuable method, how ever, according to Dr. Wynne, is to avoid sunstrolic. To do this he gave q series of don'ts Most important are these:
 Don't rush your coat of tan.
 Don't insist on coat of tan if you cant get one. An array of blisters and q painful skin will be the sad result.
 Don't go on long walks during the middle of the day.
 "Don't go bareheaded in the sun.
 "Dont expose yourself too much to the sun all at once, and the sun won't show too much on you.
 "Dont hesitate to call a doctor If you arc not feeling well"
 Dr. Wynnc urged his listeners strongly, however, that, with mod cration, sunshine should be taken ad- vantage of.
 Tt is only within recent years that We have come 10 realize the full hcalth- giving and health maintaining value of the direct rays of sunshine" he said. "'ruberculosis is now sue Ccssfully treated by sunshine and fresh air. together with rest and good food. Surgical conditions, too, do far better in the sunshine. Dur ng the war there were many ugly wounds that would not heal until the dressings were removed and the sun- shine and fresh air were allowed to

play their helpful roles.
 Not only is tuberculosis prevent ed and cured by sunshine, but also rickets, scurvy and anaemia. h 1850 rickets was called disease of dark ness. No child gets rickets who gets enough sunshine as well as proper food"
 The most valuable Of the suns rays, he described as the ultraviolet. These rays, he said, are essential to make the body take up the miner als from the food more easily ana use them for building up strength and good health.
 We pay homage at the court O. the sun during the summer months, : said Dr. Wynne in conclusion. "li is rewarded with renewed health and we are wise and careful our homage vigor. But if we are foolish and care less, our homage is scorned ard We are punished severely.
