Show Page Two SOUTH HIGH SCRIBE November 28, 1941. Are You Willing To Help? Dear Friends: This letter must serve to express our sincere thanks and apprecia-tion for your most generous package delivered to our home a day or two before Christmas. Ours was, indeed, a gloomy outlook for the holidays, and our children would have suffered the keen disappointment that only a child can feel, had you not so graciously came to our rescue. To fully appreciate the real joy a group such as yours can bring to an individual family, it would have been necessary for each of you to be here to see the beaming, happy faces of our three girls, and to hear the many proper, but none-the-le- ss genuine "oohs" and "ahs" as each nice gift'was revealed. The care and thought with which this package was assembled was apparent from the nicely selected foodstuffs accompanying the pack-age. The home-canne- d fruits, together with the canned vegetables, contributed many luscious dishes to our holiday meals. Truly, you did much to bring us that blessed assurance that "God is in His Heaven and all is right with the world." That this New Year might bring to each of you much joy, health, and happiness, is our closing wish. Sincerely yours, A FRIEND. This letter, as you have read, expresses the deep gratitude felt by the humble people who were the receivers of the gifts sent to them at Christmas last year. Our hearts should fill with pride in just the thought of helping the unfortunates in our city. Are you willing to help?

Jeanne Bemis has the most expressive hands, and they hold George Bradshaw spellbound, too.

We're Not Afraid Regardless of when Thanksgiving-- was cele-brated this year, the thoughts in the minds of the American people were along much . the same lines. At our table, the prayer was just a little longer and the heads were bowed a little lower in humbleness and in thanksgiving. There was a limited amount of laughter and merriment but we weren't afraid to laugh. There was little talk about the war, about labor strikes, or about National Defense but we weren't afraid to talk about these things. There was little talk about the beautiful snow, or the cold bleak winter ahead of us but we aren't afraid of the future. We're not afraid to throw back our heads and laugh laugh at everyone and anything; we're not afraid to sing to raise our faces to heaven and sing thanks to God; we're not afraid to criticize to accept or refuse govern-ment policies ; we're not afraid of the cold, or of hunger; we're not afraid to say, "John L, Lewis ought to be deported," or "John L. Lewis is doing the laboring American a won-derful service"; ve're not afraid to go to church, to worship a supreme God, to preach or learn about any gospel our hearts and minds desire; we're not afraid to seek and find happiness. We Americans are not afraid for this, we can thank God! If you want to be the man who really rates When you, take your sweety out on dates, Class and humor are good baits, As well as manners, don't hesitate. Wisely choose your hats and ties, And you'll be the envy of all the guys, But the man who really tries, Will take these tips before he buys. The visible trend is toward more casual clothes. Sweaters are the main rage, with sleeveless vests predominating. Fred Cole has a swank green number. Plaid flan-nel shirts have had a very success-ful year, and Willis Tandy has the loudest one of all. Mighty attrac-tive. Suede finished material has taken the place of other material for pants. Soft greys and tans are the favorite colors. Warren Fish-er, one of the best-dresse- d men around school, who is running a close second to Mr. Williams, has a sports apparel of beige, with which he wears a green shirt and tie. There's class for you. Speaking of shoes, just about anything goes from soft leather moccasins to ski boots. Polished brown is a favorite for those who wear dress and sport shoes. But for the advocates, work shoes are just it. Paul Eyan, Wayne Mc-Ghi- e, and Frank Davidson are among those who sponsored them. Single-breaste- d suits of three button variety still maintain their polished appearance. Coarse fab-rics have completely replaced yes-terday's smooth fabrics. Many rich warm brown tones, along with tweedes, are the sportsman's favorites. For a . smooth dress suit, try the new air blue, and smoother yet, match your olive drab covert cloth suit with a simi-lar overcoat. Herringbones, plaids, and stripes still hold the fashion spotlight. Many of our best-dress- ed men give their formula for success to the fact that they harmonize their whole wardrobe using one basic color and style. Two or three sweaters, an unusual sport coat, an extra pair of slacks will supply a refreshing variety. Take these tips for your own success, But never must you forget That clothes are just an added finesse, And neatness, man's best bet. wi s?ije"En,js"".si,j4 Speaking of Morons CHLORINE : A dancer in a night club. ANTIMONY: Fee collected by ex-wiv- es smart enough to leave their husbands. CARBON: Storage place for streetcars. BARIUM : What you do to dead people. CATALYST : A western ranch owner. MORON: A diplomatic way of saying dead-head. ALIMONY: The high cost of leaving. ELECTROLYTE: A thing which when it is dark you turn it on and it gets bright. OPTIMIST: A guy who will go to a show without doing his shorthand. OLD TIMER: One who can remember the days when you could kiss a girl and taste nothing but the girl. EGG WHITE: Snow White's uncle (Get the yolk?) EYE BROWS: Snooty people. MOUNTAIN: What you do to snapshots. CHAIR: What you do at the games. PHEW : Where you sit in church. WHARF: A noise that a dog makes. OLD MAID: One who has stopped looking for an ideal man and is hunting for a date. ARRANGE: Edible citrus fruit. Are You Life-Thrift- y? A live man pays twenty-fiv- e cents for a shave, while five dollars is the fee charged for the operation performed on a dead man. A woolen overcoat costs $40. but a wooden one costs $400. A taxi to the theater costs $1 for a round trip, and a trip to the ceme-tery amounts to ten pesos for one way. Stay alive and save your money. It's easy Drive Carefully ! Drive carefully. Behind these two words lie hundreds of tearful, heart rending stories, relating vast pathos and irony. "Infant Crush-ed Beneath Truck's Wheels," "Score Dead in Automobile Collision," "Pedestrian Killed by Hit-Ru- n Driver," examples of the many head-lines printed in blood across the daily news-papers throughout the country. Utah is no exception. However, it may be-come a safer place in which to live if pub-lic officials, the press, radio, clubs, churches, and last and certainly most impressive, the motoring public will unite in a great move-ment to make it safe for the motorist to drive on the road, and the pedestrian to cross it. The Kid Across the Aisle DOROTHY HARRISON If you ever find out, we wish you'd let us know what makes Dorothy so charmingly and irresistibly sweet at all times. She's one of the coyest damsels who ever stepped into South. Her way of mak-ing friends merits more than ordinary praise. " BOB WILLIAMS The screwiest senior at South and possibly one of the daffiest of all time. He provides some of the heftiest laughs ever released by his associates. Bob doesn't miss a single item in the entire code of com-edy. GERALDINE BREWER A junior with an entrancing smile and who fairly sparkles when a certain blond is mentioned. Huh, Marti? She's Irish and good looking mostly good looking. Has an adorable wardrobe. DOUGLAS WELTI One person who can be depended upon for doing the right thing at the right time. He has entered and won many speech contests and is destined to become one of South's ace debaters. Always ready, will-ing, and able to help. MARY LARSEN Don't be too surprised if she becomes one of your best friends. Lovely smile, lovely personality, lovely. Likes parties, sports, dancing, and thinks fellows make good company. The popular impression is that she has flamboyant tastes. 8 - mi no WE iiave the gift jl lfVdj X. for your favorite I'i HEorSHE! f '?jk O Hosiery Sweaters $ V .Slack Suits tv zi9 n - r:m GSKL0IRVTESS i9 ly 5 BLOUSES M W. 4, Shirts Ties Sox M ; v I Loafer Coats Etc. ubit SALT LAKE I l..-- .
