Base 4 THE KEY WEST CITIZEN Friday, September 19, 1952 SOCIETY. . DOROTHY RAYMER, Society Editor | Glamorous Trio At Party For Dignitaries S:10P HOPPING WITH According to my almanac the next four days are going to be a lot warmer with scattered thun- derstorms. I don’t see how the Almanac weatherman could miss | om that one, do you? There is also a note in the Almanac that says “wean 21st to 30th” Now that is very good ad- vice, but what, and how? Oh well, I’m sure it doesn’t mean me, anyhow. . On the anniversary side of the ledger, Washington gave his farewell, address this date in 1796, and the carpet sweeper was patented by M. A. Bissell in 1876. That carpet sweeper thing was a great boon to the housewife, and now we wish to write about some other things in the shopping line that may prove a big boon ue. * * * Babies really come equipped these days, what with the new things at Ideal Togs. There is @ quilted thermo set in candy striped washable plastic styles for multiple use. Baby can surely travel comfortably now days and be sure of warm sweet milk en route. To wrap the little darlings are some of the most exquisite nylon shawls T’ve ever seen! From the sublime to the use- ful—an aluminum sterilizer for the bottles, and big porcelain huibs for the bath. Also display- ed, pretty porcelain pails with covers to hide and soak dirty diapers. Jiffy Junior potty chairs and commodes to make difficult training problems safer and easier. All your baby needs are pouring into Ideal Togs these days, and you'd better believe there isn’t a thing they haven't thought of at this store! Ask for it, Ideal Togs is sure to have it. ito Baby isn’t the only one in the family who likes custard. Now there is a dessert so good for you, and easy to make, too! For a very Pleasant change in the custard line tiy making a molasses cus- tard, Beat three eggs slightly, add one-fourth. cup molasses, one- fourth teaspoon salt, one tea- Spoon’ vanilla. Stir in two cups of scalded milk. Set the baking dish into a pan of hot water and bake as usual, slowwwwwwww. (AE ef Oil for the lamps of China fs mer>-; a figure of spe-2h hore, except when the big winds Blow of course. But the word for Key West is “lamps for the wooms at home.” Altman's has e store full and more of lamps to make your rooms lovely with their warm glow this winter. You won't find lovelier ones anywhere! These are mostly of function- al designs, and plain, some- times severe—but so attractive. oe Did you know that a rose con- fains more vitamin C than an orange? Neither did we until we vead it in an article called “48 @tates of mind” — whatever that has to do with vitamin C and foses. Well it seems that a Mrs. George E. Simmons of Coventry, Connecticut says that this is so, and so she makes rose jam to keep the family healthy. It is also probably very unhealthy for her family to object to eating this Jam. In case you are interest- ed, rose jam is made by boiling @ &@ mess of rose petals with magar and water, The jam is said te be mouth puckering, but not to have Fiven a jar to a friend. “I don't think it is Indicative of anything,” ways she, “but I haven't heard from her since.” Maybe not, but W you make this here now rose Jam, we don’t want to hear from you either. ~x* Answers te inquiries I ge! @very day... Where de you buy boys be:ts, fles and other accessories? The anawer ts always prompt and easy: Children’s Corner has a “ts supply of sizes and styles of nice leather belts by Paris. All widths and all lengths too. They are a nice addition to Junior's school wardrobe, and nice to think of for Christmas or birthday gifts to come. In the tie department you will find the attractive ready made boy ties that always look well too. Also the four in hand for the older kids who like to tie their own. These are in gay prints to please the youngest Beau Brummels. Children’s Corner also has all the necessary underwear— boys and girls up to size 16 in case you're wondering. This is another question I’ve been ask- ed many times. No need for the kids to lack for anything with such fine stores in our town! * ok ot. We've been running a little bit of a word’ of praise for our friends who have helped to make the column a success, but this is the very first time we've had to say goodbye to one, and it sad- dens a little. Little Mrs. LaVica Gustafson over at Buttons, Pins and Bows has to go away. Her hubby, who is a Navy man has been transfer- red to Panama City, Florida, so of course LaVica must leave too. The little store over on Caroline Street has been like a second home ever since the day last fall when I first dropped around at Mrs. Gustafson’s invitation to write about it in the Shop Hop- per. It’s been sort of a club for a lot of ladies in Key West too, and all feel bad that she must go. In spite of the Hopper'’s ad, trying to sell the business, it’s still on the market. However, LaVica is | leaving today, so your last chance is gone. There was a sale to liquidate most of the stock andj what a sale it was! LaVica wants to thank you one and all, and say goodbye to everyone too. 3 So goodbye to Buttons, Pins and Bows. I was present at the pulling down ceremonies when the sign was pulled down yester- day. I felt like laying a wreath on the spot where it hung. We'll all miss this little shop, but most of all we'll miss its proprietor. Thank you too, Vi, for the friend you've been, to me and to the Hopper. fi ~* * ‘Shoot if you must this old grey heai” would have had to rhythm differently if Barbara Fritchie had been to Donald's. v We're off to other lands come tomorrow, but thanks to the co- operation of our fine merchants, the Shop Hopper will go right on. We'll be back next week to shop hop with more pep than ever. See you around—shop hop- ping!

Of course, Washington was all of 3,000 miles away, but according to this story, the Spanish settlers want- ed to belong to the United States. Between 1825 and the; 1840's, they had to duck enter- prising countries like France and Russia as well as Spain. Two factions battle over the issue, one in the pay of Russia and under the leadership of a} bandit, Jose Martinez; the other under leaders who are in favor | of American rule.

Neither did this reporter, but this week at Logun’s added something new to the sum total of things when Bob Silva played off to a good and melodious start. He is herein described as a one man combo because he operates the piano pedals with the left foot a small sized drum with the right, the solovox with the right hand and the piano and maracas with the left, all of which adds up to a me lodious form of entertainment, es- pecially when accompanied by a husky haunting baritone. The music is tuneful and dance- able and Bob plays all requests with gusto. He says he isn’t “Good, but loud”, but there is a difference | in opinion there, and he please all Bob comes to the Patio directly from the Overseas Lodge in Mar: thon, and before that an eight- months engagement at the Marine former drummer with name bands, and originally hails from Wiscon- sin.
