Dear Sally:

Dear J. B.
Do like the other girls are
doing, trifle on him. But, if
you’re a “very good girl” and
want to be true* to him, just;
go along with the gang. You
will still have fun, and also
have a clear conscience.

Sherman, why were you so
worried Thursday morning?
Have you noticed that Mary
Collier has been wearing
Frank’s class ring. Really, we
didn’t know it was that serious
We wonder if Carl Panter ev-
er found any string Tuesday.
It looks like the football ban-
quet brought out some new
couples.
Mary Jo and J. L. seem to
have started it all over again.
Hallie Ruth, who was your
boy friend Saturday night.
Gerald, who is it going to be,
Nita Jane of Dorothy Jean?
Robert, you kinda got your
dates mixed up at the banquet,
didn’t you? But we noticed you
ended up with Bobbie Nell.
Everyone seems to be very
excited since the Christmas hol-
idays are getting nearer.
From all observations, Wal-
lace and Bengene are going to
' get aljng just fine
We wonder why Charles Wet-
zel doesn’t like a “certain”
nickname.
Billie Novell, we hear you
have been receiving letters from
Winnsboro lately.
We hear Bob, Loop, and Fat-
ty seem to like Quitman well
enough to hitch hike over there.
Was the trip really worth it,
boys?
Noticed: Mary Sue and Buddy
Cudd chatting; and Imogene
Maclin sitting together; Dor-
Williams and Burl Nichols talk-
ing; Earl Vanderford and Jean
Wooten discussing something
very serious.
Tommy Sheftall seems to be
our man about town, so we hear
Dorothy Williams seemed to
be all excited Thursday. We
think it’s because she had a
date with Pat Vickery.
It seems to be a regular rou-
tine for Wesley and LeWan to
talk all during the noon hour.
