I floundered along about the fifth sylable and never did get my bearings. Anyway, Mr. and Mrs. Appleby say they have to laugh at the Key Westers for complaining the temperatures here last week. “Where we live,” said Mrs. Ap- pleby, “sometimes we go through | a whole summer without the thermometer ever reaching sixty five degrees!” The Applebys are visiting Key West with Mrs. Appleby’s sister and her husband, Mr. and Mrs. Clement Cooke, and the Cook: have a large sheep ranch in Mon: tana. Mrs. Cooke also had some- thing to say about Key West weather. “You are fortunate here,” she said. “Why, out in our territory we wear woolen clothes all year; *round.” So there were at least four Large Passenge about} r Lists Of Persons who saw nothing awful ‘ful weather.” ' Mr. and Mrs. Appleby, inci- , dentally, spent the entire sum- mer of 1948 travelling in British Isles, and their account of | the trip was extremely interest- ing. Both are genial, _ friendly, wholesome ‘people, and during their stay here of less than a week have met many people and made | many new friends, not a few of | whom are from Wisconsin also. They, and the Cookes, expect : to leave over the highway this ' afternoon for Ft. Myers, where they are to join a niece of Mrs. Appleby and Mrs. Cooke and drive her to Pensacola, where | she will be married later on this | week, “We are going to recommend | that she and her husband spend | their honeymoon in Key West,” said Mr. Cooke. “We can think of no nicer place for them to Leaving For Caba Over Weekend Many passengers, including a large number of Key Westers, left for Havana via Aerovias “Q” planes over the New Year week- end Passenger lists follow: Frank Sanchez, Lena Carpi, Madeline Carpi, Colin Carpi, Olive Carpi, Fred Carpi, Milton Esquinaldo, Amelia Esquinaldo, Milton Esquinaldo, Jr., Enrique Esquinaldo, Josefina Esquinaldo, Ann Weekly, Carl Weekly, John | Gratza, May Gratza, Rose Getz.

SPECIAL By NIA | NOTHING [ ! The other day I overheard a woman telling another woman about all the things she, stocrat, used to have, how times have changed. and how hard she is finding it to accustom ferself to comparative poverty ead luxury. ‘Though “overheard” is perhaps rot exactly the right word, for tne woman was dominating the entire area with her voice and complaints, and one couldn't help hearing her, to say nothing of overhearing her. I stifled an impulse to butt in and set that woman right on a f.w things. Goodness knows ! am not an aristocrat myself, but I spent*a good many years ob- serving them, and even had a couple of distant’ relatives who. had leanings in the direction of. aristocracy. These leanings were constantly hampered by the pres- ence of the rest of the family, because the ambitious ones sim- ply couldn’t keep us common ones out of sight, and with us around, their pretensions toward the exalted state of aristocracy were definitely open to queés- tion. Anyway, about this aristocracy busin that woman was a fake arda fraud. Real aristocrats never never admit that any per- rranent change ever takes place. Move earthly possessions, such a3 furniture, right out from under them and they promptly take the attitude that the furniture is off being repaired and will be re- turned tomorrow. Meanwhile, they accustom themselves grace- fully to what they choose to con- sider a temporary inconvenience and say nothing about it.
