Alp and Freddie L. Hightower of
San Antonio were married by
County Judge J. P. Ellinger of La-
Grange, Tuesday night, January
17, at seven o’clock at the home
of the bride’s parents.
The bride attended Sam Hous-
ton State Teachers College and
for the past two summers has en-
rolled in this college. At present
she is employed in the Pecan
school, this being her fifth session
in that locality.
The couple left immediately for
a brief honeymoon in San Anto-
nio.
In its regular meeting on Fri-
day, January 20, the Shakespeare
Club had as its program feature,
E. B. Jackson, head librarian, who
gave a review of the latest addi-
tion to the library, Laing’s Tech-
nocracy. Johnibel Spencer gave
two tap dances and encores, ac-
companied by Charlotte Bailey.
The election of officers for the
second half of the year was con-
ducted by Mary Beth Comer, out-
going president of the club. De-
tails of the election results have
not been given out definitely, ex-
cept the name of the new presi-
dent, who will be Elizabeth Hof-
heinz. Installation of the new of-
ficers will take place February 3.
A committee was appointed to
take charge of the initiation of the
following new members who will

and lone McAlister. The com-
mittee includes Nell Dezelle, chair-

Green Speaks To
Y.M.C.A. Tuesday
At the regular Y.W.C.A. meet-
ing Tuesday morning, Professor
H. M. Greene of the history de-
partment addressed the members
with a presentation of facts con-
cerning the progress of disarma-
ment since last year.
Mr. Greene stated that to sur-
render the power to fight was safer
and provides better protection than
the state of preparedness at all
times for war. Why spring at
each other’s throats and then come
together to settle with a peace
rAW/AVW,
treaty, he asked?
The sources which aid in the
prevention of wars are the church,
public school systems, and govern-
mental control, the speaker assert-
ed. Publicity is given the wrong
side of this question because more
money is paid for such space.
Why not draft money as well as
men in time of war, Mr. Greene
asked in concluding his speech?

To Schiller Verein
On Wednesday afternoon at four
o’clock the Schiller Verein met for
a delightful program with Miss
Butler rendering the outstanding
feature, a very interesting talk on
the life and works of the beloved
Austrian composers, Mozart and
Haydn. Miss Butler used Victro-
la selections to illustrate to the
audience the kind of music com-
posed by Mozart. >
Additional numbers on the pro-
gram were a trombone solo, “When
the Organ Played at Twilight”,
and a German vocal solo, “Rosary”,
by Herbert Esse.
The meetings held by the Schil-
ler Verein have been found both
entertaining and beneficial, and all
members are urged to attend re-
gularly.

ILLUSION:
This very old illusion was invented by Indian
fakirs. The secret was unearthed in 1849 by the
great magician, Robert-Houdin. At that time, ether
had just been discovered, and little was known
about it. Houdin claimed that he had discovered
that this new anesthetic could make people light as
air. To prove it, he caused the subject to rise into
the air and float apparently suspended. He passed
a hoop around the body to show there were no
wires or supports.
EXPLANATION:
There are many, many explanations for this old
trick. One is that the girl wears a concealed harness,
which ends in a socket between her shoulder blades.
This is attached to a piston below the stage. The
piston is pushed up from below, causing her to
rise in the air. The piston is invisible, because it
is covered with mirrors which reflect surrounding
draperies, similar to the background. The magi-
cian can pass the hoop over her body because it
is cut in one place. It earn be pulled apart for a
second when it passes the piston.

Another “magic show” is cigarette adver-
tising.
One of its greatest tricks is the illusion
that cigarettes can be made miraculously
"MILD" through manufacturing methods.
the explanation: All popular cigarettes
today are made in modern sanitary factories
with up-to-date machinery. All are heat
treated— some more intensively than others,
because raw, inferior tobaccos require

more intensive treatment than choice, ripe
tobaccos.
The real difference comes in the tobaccos
that are used. The better the tobacco, the
milder it is.
It is a fact, well known by
leaf tobacco experts, that
Camels are made from finer, MORE
EXPENSIVE tobaccos than any other
popular brand.
This is why Camels are so mild. This is why
Camels have given more pleasure to more
people than any other cigarette ever made.
It’s the secret of Camels’ rich “bouquet”
... their cool flavor... their non-irritating
mildness.
All the natural, ripe goodness of Camel’s
tobacco is kept/ras& for you by the famous
air-tight, welded Humidor Pack. Don’t
remove it.
