With Tlie Young Moderns of Wharton High Hey, wait a minute, Xan ! I ' m going on a shopping tour this morning. Want to come along? Did you ever think al)out how many nice stores and companies we have here in Wharton, or do you jus t take it for granted Hke everyone else? Did you know that we have as many shopping advantages in Wharton as most towns and cities much larger? I ' ve been thinking about it lately, and now that we ' re seniors in high school, I think we ought to know something about our home town stores, don ' t you ? What do you say to going around the square this morning and looking them over ? Come on. let ' s go ! First let ' s have a drink at BURGER AND TERRY ' S and plan our tour. Even if I have gained five pounds in the last week, I can ' t resist one of their toasted sandwiches. You ' d rather have ice cream? Well, whatever you order, it ' ll be delicious and served in a manner fit for a king. My date always brings me here, because we can see everybody and gossip with the gang. The other night Bob got big hearted and bought me the darlingest vanity and a big box of luscious Miss Saylor ' s candy here. Needless to say, I ' ve a warm spot in my heart for this place! They have several lines of the very best toilet articles, too. But we ' d better be on our way. By the way, don ' t you think I look beautiful? I ' ve just come from an ap- pointment for a general work-over at the BLUE BONNET BEAUTY AND B.- RBER SHOP. They give the loveliest finger-waves there. They must be good, ' cause they can even make my straight hair swirl, and that is an accom- plishment ! The other night some boy told me that I had such cute curly hair. Imagine ! They always keep up with the very newest hair cuts and coiffures, too. And they certainly do give effective skin treatments and facials. I have them work on my skin now and then, and Mother goes down every week. There ' s Pete going in the GIFFORD MERCANTILE COMPANY. Let ' s go see what ' s on his mind this morning. Say, look at those Frigidaires! Aren ' t they perfectly grand looking? Dad ' s going to get one here for Mother ' s birthday, and he ' s going to let me help pick it out. Won ' t that be fun ! I can ' t wait to have one and freeze all kinds of things in it this summer. They have an expert mechanic to look after the Frigidaires that they sell. Look, they handle every- thing in hardware, too. They certainly have a complete line. Mr. Winn is so nice to show you around when you go in there, and the store is conveniL-ntly located on the square. Here ' s another Hardware store. MR. J. T. MURPHY, The Hardware Man, the sign savs. He doesn ' t only handle all kinds of hardware, l)ut he sells the verv best tires on the market — Goodyear. They have in a new Goodyear All-Weather tire now, with eleven im])rovements. It gives more miles, more style, and more value at lower cost. We took our tri]) last summer on Goodyear Balloon tires that we bought here, and didn ' t have a l)it of tire troulile. Dad Paffe Si.rty-Six :: a
