Let’s go shopping on Duval and then on King Streets. x wk * Monday night's Citizen told you all about the new Beach- comber hours, but I'd like to re- peat them here. Beachcomber will remain closed on Thursdeys all this month, Will follow the hours of the Merchants asso- ciation from November through December 31st. But then, they decided that their employees de- served a five day week like the rest of the working world, and beginning with the New Year, the Thursday closing will be the order for always. Also, Beachcomber will not be open on Saturday nights with the begin- ning of the new year, That makes a double thrill. We would also like t gize in behalf of the Monday‘’s misspelling of the , Dickson name. We wr i D-i-c-k-s-o-n, but our typt evidently thought he knew bet+ ter, and a new copy reader thought it looked all right to too. The Dicksons are the nice people who ere giving their em- ployees the right kind of break, and we think the people of Key West won't mind. When you know a store’s hours, you plan your shopping accordingly any- how, We My shopping in Kingston wasn’t such a howling suce the first day because I wasn't acquainted with shopping hours either. a dumb tourist. I had heard of Siesta and of course thought that this was the place. How wrong can you get? After Siesta and a leisurely shower, wandered on down to King Street in the cool of late afternoon and found that everything was shuttered and all the folks gone home. Well, ex- perience Is a very good teacher. Shops in Kingston open early and close early, and it sounds like a very fine idea. Only the begg taxi drivers and street peddlers never seem to take any time off, but I guess in the fight for sur. vival in that highly over populated town, self employment means no rest. One lady | talked to said she worked from eight until one P.M. Just exactly the hours I would like! x * Japanese Gardens and coy Geisha girls were quickly brought to mind on our last visit to the Ditty Box. Of course things oriental and visions rare are al+ ways up on these weekly visits. Well, somewhere in his wan- derings, Mr. Lovell came upon some rare and lovely brocaded silka and promptly wrapped them up and sent them to his lovely wife, who is of course, “Mes, Ditty Box.” Se now she has three pleces of this rare silk. One is twelve yards of old gold and rusty wine: a vivid blue with soms and quaint pag ether and only six yards of this enough to make some lucky lady a lounging pajama. of ethereal tight blue. It’s beauti- ful stuff, and ye elde Shoppe Hepper is that tempted! i oe ee tion erchants c S222 12608 eeenncerss simost every corner in Kingston Like | ind one | so that you wont miss it. These are the “Issa Caops.” After much haggling around, we found that |the Issa Shop in our own hotel could supply most of our needs In the items we were so anxious to bring back — duty free of course. These were linens, we got a beau- tiful banquet- cloth of damask, | leather wonderful doeskin | gloves, perfumes, and the famous | Rolls razer. All other things like rattan, grass and straw articles and the famous Jamaica dolls were bought from street venders | who priced their articles and la- bor so low as to make even the very skimpiest way of life almost impossible, Bah tied | Now | always thought that Beacon Hill was the snootier sec- tion ef one of our larger and | better known cities, but since my last visit to Mar-Ed’s, Bea- con Hill has taken on entirely new meaning. | If you’ve been past the win- | dows on Fleming Street — and | you shouldn’t ever miss them, you couldn’t help but see the wonderful black velveteen things there. The full panne velvet skirt shown on the seated fig- ure with the black boucle even- ing skirt is real nice, but that ; stim skirt on the other figure, denim stitched is the real e catcher. It also has a siee | blouse to match. If you don’t know what | mean by denim | stitched, let me tell you, these velveteen styl @ tailored and stitehed in whit exactly like your summer denim casuals.

Another Beacon Hill honey is the new striped corduroy of rust and black — @ jumper that has a turtle mecked, dolman sleeved jersey blouse in black to go with it that makes the flying saucer cbsolete as a model T.

Also made only of two materials, pure Irish jLinen of many weights and ; weaves or a coarse Indian Head, The dresses differ only in color and the wonderful embroideries that are on them. White of course | predominates with beautiful vivid colors embroidered on it. Clear blues and reds are next with the | yellows and greens in less favor. However, men's shirts there would make ‘our own Harry Tru- man turn green with envy. Another thing I would like to mention is the shoes. While made but don’t weather is for it of the best and most lustrious of | English. leathers, the’ English craftsmen still haven't caught the j@raceful silhouette of the foot, jand the shoes are a little bulky and ungraceful.

Mrs. Van Deursen “refused and neglected the said survey”, and the company has refused delivery of an abstract and a warraaty deed.
