in the teacherage according to
present plans.

In the renovating of this
building, it is planned to have
suitable bathroom facilities for
each room and also plenty of
closet space necessary to take
care of two occupants to the
room.

It is hoped this building will
be ready for occupancy in the
very near future.

pitching is Bill Cashion, the catcher. In addition to being on of
the best men in textile baseball in his department, he is also one
of the leading hitters of the team, and his big bat has accounted
for many base hits and runs in behalf of the Slater cause.

Mr. and Mrs. Lewis Boswell
of Renfrew visited Mr. and Mrs.
Harold Capps last Sunday.

Everyone was saddened to
hear of the death of Wix May-

sympathy to the family in their
bereavement.

Roy Reynolds was out for a
week's vacation recently but
had the misfortune of becoming
ill during the week. Better luck
next time, Roy.

Margie Bolt has started
attending church services since
living at Marietta. We can
imagine the male attendance
will surely increase!

Visitors to the Rosario Silver
Mines in Honduras are surpris-
ed to find a community which,
although buried in the depths
of the mountains, is complete
with American - built houses,
church, school, theater, library,
and even American foods, says
the Middle America Informa-
tion Bureau. This ''Little
America,'' which has grown up
around the largest silver mines
in the world, was built from
materials carried over rough
jungle trails by oxcarts.

HERE'S A NAME
FOR YOUR DOG

Do you feel at a loss when
trying to select a suitable name
for your favorite pet? If so,
read this item; perhaps it will
help.

The librarian recently ran
across a list of pet names pub-
lished in the children's maga-
zine, ''Jack and Jill.'' This list
is comprised of names which
the readers of that magazine
have suggested as good names
for pets. Since some children
of the community have come to
the library in search of names
for family pets, the librarian
wishes to publish the pet names
listed in ''Jack and Jill.'' This
item will list names for dogs,
while those for cats, goats,
chickens, rabbits, and goldfish
will be published in future
issues of ''The Slater News.''

''Jack and Jill'' advises one
to consider the animal's size,
color, and disposition before
finally deciding on a name for
a pet.

The names suggested for
dogs are as follows: Jingle,
Mitzi, Pooch, Sunday, Nudgie,
Inky, Teddy, King, Stub,
Snooper, Brownie, Bounce, Bru-
cie, Blitzie, Puppet, Punk,
Gamin, Big Shot, Copper, Snip-
pet, Goon, Mugadee, Wiggles,
Tippy Tin, Dinkie, Bum, Rac-
ket, Smoky, Wendy, Curly, Jig-
ger, Vicky.

LINES FROM
THE LIBRARY

Several of our Story Hour
children started to school this
year for the first time. From all
reports, they are happy in this
new experience and greet each
school day with a great deal
of enthusiasm. To these tiny
tots and their teachers, we say
''Good luck, and a happy year
in the first grade.''

Let's say ''Happy Birthday''
to Peggy Scarce, who was nine
years old on September 6,
Peggy, a member of the Girl's
Library Club, tells us that her
birthday was a very happy one.
You see, she received that
alligator shoulder-strap bag she
has been wanting for a long
time.

Peggy is a daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. L. T. Scarce of Slater.
She attends the local grammer
school, where she is a member
of the fourth grade.

We wish for Peggy many
more birthdays which will
bring just as much happiness as
this one which has just passed.

Jimmie Wilson, one of our
Story Hour boys, also had a
birthday on September 6. This
was Jimmie's sixth birthday,
and he celebrated with a party.

The following children at-
tended: Doris Smith, Aaron Mc-
Collum, Lee McCollum, Mar-
jorie Pittman, Katherine Pitt-
man, David McCauley, and
Clara Veal.

Also: Rosa Nell Addington,
Patty Addington, Dale Mc-
White, Patsy Hogan, Gail
Hogan, Margaret Williams,
Jerry Williams, and Harold
Wilson.

This party was a happy
occasion for Jimmie, and he's
still enjoying the nice gifts
which he received.

Jimmie is the youngest son
of Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Wilson.
He has our best wishes for
many more happy birthdays.

LADIES HATS CREATE
MUCH CURIOSITY

Unquestionably, women's
hats will be one of the more
interesting things in the world
of tomorrow, which is about
to envelop us any day in a
thoroughly disagreeable man-
ner, according to some of the
famous predicators of atomic
doom.

Now and then we like to
wonder what match-box shaped
contrivances and Rube Gold-
berg millinery nightmares wo-
men will be wearing in ten
years.

The current millinery malady
is stimulating. There are hats
that make short women look
tall and slender, hats that
shorten tall women, and other
topsy-turvy hats that look as
though they are the dream
world answer to the tired work-
ing girl or house wife.

But there has also appeared
a factor in women's head
pieces which is profoundly dis-
appointing. Some of the ladies,
it appears, seem to have lost
their grip; for some of the old
millinery sense of abandon
seems to have drifted away.

We are speaking of the
numerous women who appear
on the street with what looks
like a white dish towel wound
turban style around their heads,
or father's old shaving towel.

If this is the case, the future
is plain. When women start to
forget about really crazy hats
and are happy with towels -
brother, watch out. There's only
one implication.

That is, women are thinking.
Can all those dish towel clad
heads be filling up with disturb-
ing ideas - argument provoking
thoughts?

Better get your wife a new
hat, gents, and avoid answering
all those serious questions on
world affairs.

tion on which to build a 6-story
