THE KEY WEST c!TIZEN Monday, September 22, 1952 SOCLETY.. DOROTHY RAYMER, Society Editor S:5OP HOPPING WITH JAXON The other day I met the good , Father from St. Mary Star of the Sea, on the street. He stop | ped me in passing and said, “I} think I'll have to give you a few} sermons to put into that Shop! Hopper of yours.” Well now, | how does one answer a remark like that? We finally got around to asking if he didn’t like the old Hopper. “Oh yes, I like it, but such drivel you print,” he re-| plied. “Is there anything bad?” I} asked. “No,” he answered, “just a lot of Foolishness.” “Then why do you read it?” — “Because it’s | amusing and I like to see what you are going to come up with | next.” Well, Father, after thinking | the whole thing over, I am very | happy you said that, because that is exactly why I write those | foolish little squibs. I only pass this way but once, and if I can add only a little to the sum to- tal of ->uman enjoyment, maybe | I won’t ever make my mark in| history, but I will be content. Im not trying to educate any- one, those anniversary facts are just for my own amazement. I like to eat, thus — recipes. Some- times I get into a controversial subject, but only in a very mild | way. Often I find a chuckle or | two I'd like to pass along. There’s | too little laughter in the world. You'll find, Father, to quote, | “There are sermons in trees, and | good in everything.” So if you don’t mind, I'll leave the sermons in capable hand, and if I ever offend in any way, please tell | me. | Oh yes, but the main purpose | of Shop Hopping is to serve you | and the stores. We hope we're | doing the job, ard soon, very soon when the season picks it- ' self out of the doldrums, we'll | have so many places to shop with you, there won’t be room| in our alloted space. xk * Shenanigans is mostly what the sprouts get into, but go to the Globe Shoe Store over on Fleming Street and get into a pair of smart new Fall Shenan- igans for high s*yle. Prettiest style of the season is a ring lizard sandal with black three-quarter inch heel. Other pretty barefoot numbers are there too, with the Fall feeling in color or with autumn leaf design across the broad toe strap. Westport has mad nice new moccasin toed white rubber soled oxford especially for waitresses and nursing du- ties. They are so soft and light weight you are walking on air, Better yet they afford the Proper support.

It | looks like an Indian moccasin, | and has all the foot support and high styling of Modern | America. Remember, Globe shoes are Pic’M shoes with the mew me to match the parent store in Miami. eo kok Spoon bread is part and par- cel of the southland, and here’ a@ real special recipe for it. You heat one quart of milk in a dou- ble boiler and gradually stir in’ one cup of corn meal, yellow or! white and one and a half tea- spoons of salt.

Id -al Togs is all ready to equip you, if yor only knew it. The new bathinette I saw there is a real honey. It is made of light, light aluminum with special shelf sery onto each light frame.

The new high chairs are a fit throne | bonell, who is the popular pro- | Well, Baby, Of formica and chrome, they have a million uses from play table through potty chair to high chair.

Have you seen the pretty wicker bassinets for the tiny, tiny newcomer? If you're bas- sinet shopping you couldn't do better. They are of firm, fine woven wicker, enameled in hard permanent white. The legs will fold to allow travel- ing in cars, and when unfolded have rubber wheels, to travel inside! Well, I'm brexthless if Ideal Togs can’t suppy all your baby needs. I'm also dumbfounded! x ek ok I hope our paper doesn’t af- fect Key Westers like a certain Omaha, Nebraska issue affected one pf its readers who walked into the Police Station crying, “I give up.” Of course, the Desk Sergeant asked him, as Desk Sergeants will» just what he had done. “Nothing,” he replied. “I've just finished reading the papers, I just give up.

What's more you will probably get your picture in the paper. Even if you aren't expecting the stork, it would be a good idea to go in and take a good look at these wonderful new appliances; but if you ar pecting the stork in the ry | near future and it looks like it might be twins — start pray- ing!

If you ane one of those who gets around you've probably already heard his piano magic because Jack arrived somewhat ahead of his organ, and not being one who es to sit around idle (and be- sides he had a contract) he start- ed right in on the piano.

It belonged to a Marathon man who brought down Ed Swift, photographer in the short but pioneering flight. Since my last visit there, half a dozen cottages have sprung up on the breezy point. Barry's din- ing room-snack bar was filled with fishermen who were arriv- ing or departing in outboards, and the guests from a birthday party for five year old Butch Barry. : Butch though adorned in a cowboy suit, the gift of Gloria Muniz, showed more mechanical skill as he climbed the tractor and actually operated it. He had to slide down in order to reach the clutch, but ran it like an old hand. Driving down through Sum- merland we stopped at the Henry Hudgins and were shown the latest developments at Summer- land Beach on Niles Channel, A dragline is filling the site of the Nile motel at the rate of 700 yards of fill a day. The whole shore line looks vastly different with the piling up of marl, and the digging of channels. Farther out on the beach neat rows of coconuts have been planted which together with the native gumbo limbo, tamarind, and other trees are making the em- bryonic settlement show its promise of a future garden spot. Rod, the Hudgins Dobetman pincer raced and barked at the dragline as it swung first in the water and then dropped its car- | 80 on the marl mountains. Young Henry Clay Hudgins and Joan, the Hudgins children, leaped out at the site of the Hudgins’ new home to go up on the point at Summerland beach. Other fam- ilies were picnicking on the beach in front of their home sites. “If we have electricity by Christmas, we'll be able to light our trees throughout the Lower Keys,” said Mary Hudgins. More basic to the future of the Keys, the electricity is light- ing up the whole development picture. Right here within an hour's drive of us we can see the kind of mushrooming that took place in the 19th century throughout America, but today is limited to the Keys.

The entrants lined up backstage and entered through an arch made of fern, palms and gladioli. The entire stage was attractively dec- orated with potted palms and bas- kets of fern and flowers. At 11 p. m., the girls began the promenade from the arch to the center of the dance floor where they pivoted in a roving spotlight and walked back up on stage to the right.
