Georgian style.
She then presented the modefn
idea in flower arrangement, ex-
planing the Hogarth curve, an S-
curve arrangement method. She
emphasized that simplicity, depth
and rhythm were the elements to
strive for in good arrangements.
In her evening lecture, “Flower
Arrangement for the Home,” she
told Garden club members that
flower arrangements should harm
onize with decorations in the home.
She suggested the extensive use
of plants “that we can find by
the way-side.”
Both lectures were illustrated
with flower arrangements that she
had prepared earlier and others
that she made during her talks.
In her arrangements she made
extensive use of chrysanthemums,
dried flowers, and other decorat
ions that are available during
autumn. She also brought a col
lection of unusual vases and bowls
for flower arrangements.
Mrs. White was introduced by
Mrs. C. B. Campbell. Hostesses for
the meetings were Mesdames A.
D. Folweiler, W. E. Briles, Edward
Madeley, W. M. Potts and O. H.

J. Paul Sheedy* Switched to Wildroot Cream-Oil
Because He Flunked The Finger-Nail Test
"Your hair’s no yoke” bellowed Sheedy’s gal. "Those cowlicks look awful.
Why not take the bull by the horns and get yourself some Wildroot
Cream-Oil, America’s favorite hair tonic? Keeps hair combed without
greasiness. Makes you look cud-dly. Removes loose, ugly
dandruff. Relieves annoying dryness. Contains Lanolin.
Non-alcoholic. I won’t cow-tow ’til you start using it
heifery day.” Paul was udderly stunned, so he bought
some Wildroot Cream-Oil for just 29fL He told his girl
the good moos and now they’re hitched for life. So just
steer yourself down to any toilet goods counter for a
bottle or handy tube. And remember to ox your barber
for Wildroot Cream-Oil too. You’ll be the cream of
the campus—and that’s no bull.

"HOW GOES IT?” dials New York-
and a building in Illinois answers
Shell Oil Co. wanted a small brick build
ing in Illinois to be able to teletype auto
matically to a dispatcher in Radio City-
more than 800 miles away. The building
in Dennison, Ill., is one of four pumping
stations on an important oil line. For
efficiency, all these stations were to be
controlled from New York. Bell System
engineers were asked to help.
Now the New York dispatcher oper
ates these stations by using an ordinary
telephone dial. By dialing a number, he
can make a pumping station automati
cally report back its meter readings by
teletype! He also dials numbers to open
and shut valves, start and stop pumps,
and summon an attendant. It’s done
through Bell System facilities.
These remote-control installations
represent salesmanship, research and
engineering skill on the part of many
Bell System people. That’s the reason
there are rewarding opportunities in
many lines for college people in the tele
phone company. Why not check soon
with your Placement Officer on your
chances to start with the Bell System
after graduation?
