Jackson county and I couldn't re-
member ever hearing Of a haunt
ed house-isn't that where ghosts
usually park themselves-in the
county. Folks must really be con
tented beyond the stars else they
would want to come back and see
old friends or at least places.
When / remarked to Alice Col
mer about the paucity Of haunt
ed houses she told me that there
was supposed to be in eau
tier and then remarked, they
must be lonely with no other
ghosts around"
How'd they get that way, chron-
icing that the bride "entered on
the arm Of her father" Immedi-
ately I picture the father stag
gering down the church aisle,
with his daughter perched on his
arm, followed by trailing clouds
of glory" in the form of bridal
veil and other nuptial finery.
AS a result Of the dance given
by the Young Women's Business
club following the Natchez-Pas-
cagoula game Thanksgiving day,
a number of needy children will
be warmly clothed, for Dot Rich
ards, president of the club, tell
me that the proceeds are to be
donated to the march to School
fund.
The sub-debs also enjoyed
Thanksgiving when the Hi-JinX
club entertained honoring the
Panther football team and their
dates. II was a dance at the Youth
canteen Friday evening. The spon-
sor of the club, Mrs. Warren B.
Seely, and ]. E. Stone, of the
board of directors, who takes over
over at the canteen each Friday
evening. and several members Of
the board were on hand to lend
assistance to the girls.
The weather during the week
end was nostalgia TO those who
have been used TO Indian sum
mer weather further north. But
even down here the woods are al
ready colorful with the crimson
Of sumac and sweet gum and the
gold of the hickories and russell
Of oak trees. The only thing lack
ing is that indefinable haze that
hangs over everything during In
dian Summer.
Dorothy Hague Honoree
The marriage of Dorothy Hague
and Barnett M. Gilmer, staff ser
geant in the air force. is set for
this month. According TO an ac-
count of a bridal shower in Sui
phur, La, it must have been a
party as the lace covered

of yellow and white
chrysanthemums and tall candles.
