S. Seymour and Miss Mary Hope Westbrook, enjoyed a delightful picnic supper at the Bridal Veil Falls, on the Tuckaseigee River.

Large trees have been drawn up to be used as tables, and furnace made of rocks for the fire. It is an ideal place for a picnic. The class left the Joyner Building at 4:30 and after a pleasant ride up the river reached the picnic ground, where a delightful time was spent. The delicious supper, prepared by Misses Ruth Bird, Mattie Lou Mease, Mattie Wilkes, Aldine Pace, and Mrs. J. S. Seymour, was served picnic style.

Dear Miss Dix.—I have been proposed to by a girl. I have known her for a long time and have always found her to be a fine, modest young lady, but I was amazed at her proposing marriage to me. Do you think a girl is ever justified in proposing marriage to a man? Pete. Answer: It is no indication that the girl is forward and bold because she popped the question to you, Pete. It just shows that you are slow or dumb or something, and that she got tired of waiting on you. —From Asheville Citizen.
