MANY USED CARS PLACED ON SALE Dan Navarro, proprietor of the Plymouth-Dodge agency here, announces that his establishment | “is in the mood for selling Used Cars” as announced on page one today. $ i lot at Simonton and Flem- ing streets is crowded with many woriderful bargains, many re- cently added as a result of good business in the new car depart- ment. “There being no more room for our trade-ins, we simply have to sell these Pedigreed Used Cars right away”, said Mr. Navarro. The public will be the winner in the sales. Sepsecevevececscsoosooes CRACKS | Key West Community Art Cen- ter director, recently recorded a meek and very timid visitor who expected to have very little to say in hopes of not betraying her ignorance about modern art. Fearing that one was supposed to | go into raptures and stitches over a conglomeration of squares, tri- |angles and circles, daubbed into |danvas by some cubist artist brought on more of a digestive jthan an aesthetic reaction. In modern art one is not expected | torial—traditional manner, say- ling, “What a pretty kitten play- jing with ball of blue wool” or | “What a gorgeous bowl of roses”. So the visitor whose knowledge and a pin tray painted with vio- lets in the teen-age days or a few family portraits such as a grandfather with a big gun’on his shoulder painted heavens | knows how long after the Civil |Center with a deep inferiority complex and a brick-ljke feeling in the solar plexus to be greet- ed most kindly by smiling artist | Jeanne Taylor, who made it plain |that you were to make yourself at home, to browse around alone |or be conducted just as you may fehoose to study the exhibits, | which were indeed most interest- jing pictures of early American— jwell, never mind, we will “skip pit? | For two reasons, lets skip the | subject of the exhibits: First, the | visitor might call them by the wrong name, and, second, by all jmeans and in justice to yourself |you should visit the Art Center. Getting bolder, one climbs the |stairs to find artist Martha Wat- son teaching children and adult classes in drawing and water- | color, still life, landscape and in | print-making. Other very busy |people were Kingman G. Curry, |Jack D. Harris and Ernest \Salazar... Mr. Morgan justly de- |sérves the ‘support of the cul- tural life of this city. The Art | Center, a Federal project, is one lof the very bset.and most valu- j able assets of Key West and ap- | préeciated by a large number of | visitors and. tourists. | Spend a delightful hour at the | Art Center and leave your mem- |bership application with Mr. |Motgan or mail it to.
