PERSONA | Lovely Bride S:i0P HOPPING WITH One week from tomorrow is the first day of school for a lot of kids and sad are the little countenances around town — except — Remem- ber your first day in school? I don’t think anyone ever got so old he or she couldn’t remember that first awe inspiring thrill. It isn’t even equalled by the first grim sight of the chill face of death it- self. Golly, I was scared pin, blue, green and purple, and I thought my kindly faced teacher was God, or a feasonable facimile. She seemed aged and wise to me then. Recent- ly when I visited the little red school house again, found her still there only a little’ grayer and a lit- tle wiser. When I started counting pect I was telling the truth. Cor- responding Secretary Grace Crosby also stopped me and asked with a kindly sly aside whether this wasn’t the true lovely Key West I have really fallen in love with. I assured her it is, and THIS is the truth, Grace! xx k Improvements in our business always gives me such a lift. The latest one took place at the Pet Shop. The floors are all newly covered with shiny grey linol- eum, the walls and ceilings bright cool blue and the cages have been painted a cheery sun- on my fingers, to my surprise| "Y yellow. The place has also found that she must have been ‘very young indeed, and close ques- tioning confirmed this. She was just 20 and my class was her first! been re-arranged to room, light and air.

I haven’t found out yet just what its antice- dents are or its history, but will do 80 before next Monday. In the meantime, there is lots of shop- ping to do, both for the weekend and for school, * * ‘The news { the Caroline ’ and bad today. because Mrs. Thompson is the mend, and the shop is not now; bad because it isn’t open all the time as it ‘was before the injury occurred to its a promis.

First~ bake the tomatoes, dis- creetly hollowed out, of course, big enough to admit a hot little fish- ball made from your favorite re- cipe. ’Tis better I’ve heard, if you shave the fish alls fit, at least better than a seventeen collar on a fourteen neck, 7k , Now we have something titled *"Wee Dees,” an appropriate title if ever I heard one. If it sounds like the name of some new breakfast cereat to you, read further because you couldn't be more wrong. Wee Dees are the new panties for training or beach * te be found at Ideal Togs. They are made of the finest, softest ¢otton knit terry cloth ever and absorb moisture like a thirsty Sponge —and retain it too. Better yet, they sell for only 25¢ a pair $e all you harried mothers with training problems can have lots of them and keep Junior dry and comfortable while his education Is going on, For the older ones who will be starting school, Ideal has an ex- tra large shipment of the new EZ combed cotton panties. They come in sizes to 14 and are of fine combed knit cotton in white only. The good news here is that they will cost enly 39% per pair. Next week the news should be quite terrific because Mrs. Baer is going to New York this week to do her winter and Christmas buying. ner There are a few folks who think they are very bored with reading about the BPW these days in the Papers.

I never knew t ¢ there were as lovely gardens in Sey West as the one in back of tue lovely home of Eva Lee New- house. It was a veritable. scene from Midsummer Night’s Dream. I also met some very wonderful people from other parts of the state. One nice lady @ho sat be-! side me through the wonderful sup-/ per we were surprised with, asked/ if we had such gatherings often. I, of course, blithely assured her that) we did, although I have been to, very few.

Some place that Pet Shop! x ke This is about the BPW again — indirectly, but I’d like to tell you about a woman who has really made her mark in the world. She is a most suceessful lady attorney from Miami, prominent in BPW work. I had the pleasure of talking to her Friday night at the recep- tion. Her name is Anna Brenner’ Myer. She told me that she was born in Poland of Polish parents who had previously come to the U, S. but her mother had returned to the homeland to await her birth. She remembers the many visits to Poland well. She was educated in New York and took her law de- Sree in a southern college. She is a handsome, soft spoken person who isn’t at all impressed by her- self. Rather she is interested in other people and is as good a lestener as talker. Since the State Convention last May, Miss Myer has travelled around the world by air. A most interesting and suc- cessful lady this lawyer, there should be more inhabiting this glove just like her. x kek Well, the shopper went shop- ping again and was caught with her own advertising. That, how- ever, is no news! If you've noticed, there has been a terrific sale going on at Pic'M Shee Store. That is the store that is soon to emerge with a new addi- tion and a new name, but with the same gorgeous stock and the same nice proprietors.
