Hope to regain my own sometime soon. Did you have a nice holiday? We enjoyed a Keys picnic to the nth degree, sniffles and all. In fact there is nothing Yxe the god old Florida sun, sand ane sea to make a2 new woman of anyone in half the time it takes anvwhere else. Now that September’s here, school has begun, the normal chain. of uneventful lives can now commence in earnest. I like this, there’s the joyful: feel of things beginning, an unseen quickening all a'ong th. line. Summer is trying ,mightily, but you just can’t help but fvel the matutit; of a year that is quick- ly passing into the limbo of things. Let's make it good, and we still have four months to finish .off all those good resolu- tions. Let’s start off by shopping! citi a -f teen years ago today Great Brit- ain and France declared war on Germany, thus formally setting off the greatest holocaust of all times in arms and men? On the other side, brighter, that is, the ‘Treasury Department was estab- lished in 1789. Then, this being September, the month of the Virgin, thought you might like to*know your horoscope. This, of course, is for all god little Virgoans. You possess love of order as a chief characteristir. You like to have everything move with calm, well regulated system. You will have to struggle hard for moriey while you are young, but later will be quite prosperous — all through your own efforts, as no inherit- ance is indicated. (Hmm, wonder how much longer I must con- sider. myself young. Being a Virgo, seems as though I'd like to be prosperous long about now).

As I said, I'm not go- ing back to College — but even for dear old K. W. they are perfect. You know Lusteroy — Mar- Ed had it first last year. It's soft as a Kitten’s paw and silky us that Sow’s ear purse you hear. tell of. It comes in luscious blue — my choice every time — It shimmers like precious velvet and is so wearable and washable, The mix and match mates are a beautiful unlined shirt jacket that also belts, 2 clevor tailored skirt with un- pressed pleat. — the new long shorts and the new short slacks (what next?) with the narrow calf and the buttoned cuff. The colors are luscious au- tumn ones — the gold or olive green of autumn woods, the softly in that famous lusteroy corded material. Serbin also made a blouse of chambray — of all things — to go with your lusteroy outfit, and they show here the same smart styling and,lovely quali- ty they put into the original Lusteroy’s, As I sa‘*, Mar-Ed it first last year and she it agvin.

This one’s all, about a dandy icebox cake, seeing as how i's still so warm, Either bake or buy plain loaf cake. Slice i: the long way into three layers. Then mix enough whip- ped cream with crained crushed pineapy'~ to make a good filling. Flavor lightly with Imon. Spread generousl, vetween, the layers as a good filling, and frost the top and sides of the cake’ with same, Then sprinkle with chopped wal- nuts and chill two or three hours. Slice as usual just before serving, and be sure you've made plenty, Seconds are the order here. x wk Today it is our unpleasant duty to tell you of one of our favorite little business — for sale!

One-Act Plays In Rehearsal At Barn Theater Rehearsals for the one-act plays to be presented by the Key West Players Summer Work shop con- tinue at. the Barn Theatre. Last night run-offs for “‘The Monkey’s Paw,” a melodramatic suspense play was conducted by Edmund Giesebert, director. He hes not yet announced his permanent cast al- though Mrs. Marie Cox has been definitely assigned to the one fem- inine role. Tryouts will continue. In contrast, a satirical farce, “If Men Played Cards The Way Wom- en Do,” rich in laughs, will be bill- ed with tense drama. In the amus- ing playlet, four men meet for an afternoon of poker, discuss hats, babies, domestic bliss and other- wise, exchange gossip, talk about house decorations, their friends and families, and finally get down to dealing a hand although the game is again disrupted by gossip. It's a pointed ridicule, exaggerated, of course, but very ‘ The regular business meeting of the organization was un til next Tuesday evening at 8 p.m. at the Barn Theatre. Newcomers are welcome.

Right now I would sure like to put in my two cents worth and say that while Mr. Durling calls Paw Paw, Mieh. a city and Hell, Mich. a town, Paw Paw is no bigger than Hell. On the side of foreign news items, it was brought to our at- tention that the Italians brought to England to work in the coal mines have at last returned to their native shorés. They seemed to have several good reasons for not wanting to remain in Eng- land. One was the scarcity of sph: = and the apparent plenty in potatoes and cabbage. The other was that there are too many blondes in England! Now I always was of the opinion that Italian blondes are supposed to be among the most beautiful in the whole world, so maybe they still like blondes but not the English ones. Perhaps if some- one could have taught them Italian in a hurry the Italians would have stayed and worked in the coal mines another winter And fame in song and story.
