Page 4 THE KEY WEST CITIZEN SOCIETY ... Wednesday, October 22, 1952 MARGARET FORESMAN, Society Editor SHOP HOPPING WITH For anyone who is interested in horses this must be quite a day because it says in my Pro- motions calencar that this is the anniversary of the first National Horseshow in N. Y,, in 1883, Well, right at this moment I eould wish I had a good horse. Shop Hopping has been a foot- Warming job this week, what ‘with me tromping around till my feet were worn right up to the wkles. But more of that anon. Maybe walking is good for the soul, I know that it’s sure good for window shopping, and I made vff with codles and oodles of hew ideas. A peck on the outside 's good for a look on the inside ‘ny day, and here’s what I found: xk No matter what you think, Cotton is still King, at least in our town. Mar-Ed has a new shipment of cottons that will go plates with you. The cutest quaintest cottons you ever saw for $7.95, $8.95 and $10.95. Dresses that are reminiscent of covered wagon days, tiny checks with prim buttoned tops, three- quarter sleeves and full skirts, all rickrack trimmed, in several darker shades. The scoop necked, fer days more enjo: are all Gary originals. Gary also makes a daring blouse of fine cotton in jewel colors and black fer $2.95. Other Cotton blouse leaders the plaid pull-overs that en so popular in the past. Mar-Ed has a brand new shipment. On the other side of the ledger — guaranteed to make your head » Whirl, a gay Junior of light grey taffeta striped in red with coy red velvet bows around the full, full skirt. Scoop nécked too, and 000000 revealing. Wonderful for Holiday parties. ‘ xk *® ‘of Hawaii, a chicken recipe, not chicken and poi although I’ve beard it's terrific. Cut your chicken into the usual pieces and marinate for an hour or so in the following sauce: Mix together one cup soya sauce, one teaspoon ground ginger, one- half teaspoon garlic salt, one-half teaspoon sugar. Now drain the chicken well, roll in flour, fry in butter or other fat until tender, and serve with fried pineapple. Ha- waiians love this and you will too, even if no sun drenched Hawaiian blood flows in your veins. Good food is international. ‘ * If you never use a tablecloth et any other time — the Holidays are it. That is why the Caroline Shop ordering some mere of , these wonderful Woodstock Block Prints that are made only for the Caroline Shop and one other shop tn New York. A pure linen lunch- eon set for $12.95 is a bargain any time, and with hand blecked prints it's positively a steal. if you want te ift that te positively Key West — ene of these cloths with the Key West design is what you are leoking for. Woodstock prints come in ether linen items too. Caroline Shop is @ quaint little place on that tiny Ann St. that runs between Caroline St. and Greene St. to the right of City Hall. Yeu go through @ quaint white gate and up an old brick walk — and there you are — The Caroline Shop. x * ® And now the reason I crave a) horse; my own, my lovely, my Caddy “Goliath” is held in durance vile! How this came about, only a personable young legal eagle could explain to you, .. . he says I am one of these people who doesn’t trouble, trouble, but who trouble troubles ,, , . and you'd better be- Lieve it! My much publicized Beauty treat- ment on Goliath perfarmed by two gents with a penchant for making old cars like new way up in the) y/,, wilds of Miami has backfired! Poor} creg¢ party? And how OFTEN do the poor papas have to squeeze into hot tail coats and stiff collars ‘cause mamma wants to “go for- mal?” Well Srace yourself, Paw, because when Maw sees the for- mals in the Chic wndow uptown, he’s in for a siege. There's a black gown with side interest from shoulder to hem there, and a red taffeta frothed with black nylon net. A petal top- ped blve taffeta full tength gown sparkly as the star atop your Christmas tree, and that’s only a preview of what's inside. lf it's something native you seek, we saw a delicious sun dress of woven grasses and cot- ton in natural tan. It’s just what you're looking for — a two piece charmer for Beach or Patio Par- ty. xr Every story has a sequel we’ve found, You were probably amused, maybe a little alarmed, and per- haps ran the gamut of a few other emotions whether it was guy or gal who read “This Rock” ‘anent wom- en drivers. Well, I thought it was funny as heck anyhow, and had a fine answer (I think) even if Bill did threaten to sue. Now to the sequel. It would do this gal’s heart real good if every- one who meets the Gibb in the near future would ask him about a cer- tain ticket he got. Real recent; in fact, yesterday! Ah me, the sound and the fury! xk k Lamps are the latest news from Ditty Box, and of course, these lamps are DIFFERENT. They are on bases with bamboo stands and planters. Here are Floor lamps and short or tall Table lamps. The bamboo is beautifully finished for permanency . and have shades of spun glass in wonderful tropical ¢ » For porch er living reom, patio or | den, a beautiful accessory for your home. x** There are mighty men _here- abouts doing mighty things and all unheralded, For instance, I read in “48 states of mind” that there is a man who invented a suction! trailer to follow cotton trucks and) gather up what they drop. A Mr. C. H. Floyd of Carson, Texas (ah these Texans) simplified matters by hiring four Mexican boys to do the same thing and made himself $25 a day doing nothing. Mr. Floyd is also the man who in Shreveport, La., just five years ago, cut. down a full-grown oak with only a razor blade. Mr. Floyd did ‘not mention how much money he made doing this. Then there is a Mr. Dick Pur- ry of Roanoke, Virginia who claims} to be manager of a center fielder who hit 55 home runs in 56 times at bat in the past two years. How- ever, the only reason that Mr. Purry cannot deliver him to the New York Yankees who will pur- chase him for $100,000 is because when he was up at bat on the Séth| time he merely tripled and was so/ ashamed of himself he took to the/ woods and hasn't been heard from} since.
