SOCIETY — PERSONALS — NEWS OF INTEREST TO WOMEN DOROTHY RAYMER, Society Editor Page 4 —_— SHOP HOPPING Happy first of the week to you, too! I sure hope it isn’t a blue Monday, and have you ever won- dered ‘how the term started? I always used to think it was be- cause the good housewife had a big wash staring her in the face, but lately I’ve heard rumors that that isn’t the reason for the term at all, and that it has something to do with historical data. Well, I think a big wash even with automatic washers, dryers, et al, is still a bad situation with all those. clothes to rassle. ; Of course, the fact that the first iron made from hard coal was made on this date in 1839 should help to brighten up your day con- siderably. And before the whole thing gets out of hand anyhow, let’s get on with the shopping! xk wk 1 read a mighty interesting let- fer at Southernmost Flowers and Gifts yesterday from Mrs. Mae E. Kelly of Fairfield, Connecti- cut, who was in our city a week ago todi and saw those beau- tiful alaba: and brown marble owl book-ends in the window there. Well, it seems she couldn't forget them, and now that she’s gone back to Fairfield, she wrote to the Southernmost to send them being mailed right now, Mrs. Kelly. Then there’s Mrs. Key who is a mighty smart lady too. | am badly in need of a few little “beanies” to cover my bare little head. Sooocceoh. . .took my problem to the lady in the Work- shop at the Southernmost Flow- ers and Gifts. Presto! She knew immediately what was needed, whipped out the tape measure and measured my little pin head. One thing | know, the beanies will be ready when | am. And so with you, make it yourself or order it. Mrs. Key‘s @he gal for you! a * * Now I always thought that jel- lied eggs were something you got at an old fashioned tavern along with your beer. Shows just how wrong a gal can be. The ones I tried recently are dressed up for the fancy buffet. Poach enough eggs to fit the number of diners. Poach them ’til hard through. Then arranged on a deep platter in partly set aspic made of chicken broth and gelatin or tomato juice and gelatin. When this is set cover with more aspic. Chill until firm. Decorate with mayonaise, and tint it if the party is fancy enough. x ke * We might be having warmer days and nights from now on. . . we hope. And with that in mi tl canny buyer, Mrs. B. has gotten an adorable pajama and robe set in stock called “Polly Pigtails’. . . .fashioned to make the young lovely. Now if we had television, I'd sugges! | for television watching, but we don’t, and | can still see dozens of uses for The material is washable white rayon, printed in red. A 2-piece pajama with mannish tied belt. The robe is loose, and collared. Unlined of course. Comes in sizes seven to fourteen for only $3.98 each. The place to get them? Ideal Togs, of course! Other night items. . .nylon nighties, seer- sucker pajamas and nighties. x * * There's a new movie out called “Come Back, Little Sheba” and is a story of the play of the same name. Of course you never see the dog Sheba during the whole play or movie, and there has been some conjecture as to what kind of } a dog it is. Well now, if anyone had asked me, it would have been so easy to supply that information | because my dog Sheba was about eight months old when that play first opened in New York, so it} must have been her that the pl was about. I am a little perturbed | right now because Shirley Booth} who stars in the movie spoke of this to Peter Briggs backstage and an animal painter decided Sheba’s breed and did a portrait. Sheba | turned out to be an English sheep | dog, and my dog Sheba is so} ashamed she won't come out from | under the porch any more. You | see Sheba is really a Belgian Police. ‘ 2 Me adele We always like to get poetic | tir: rst xephyrs of Spring, | of walking on a field of flowers appeals to every- one.

Just what you’ve been looking for. Then, in case you still remem- ber Friday’s rain, (and who doesn’t?) | can‘t help but think how comforting a pair of high boots or some of those glove rubbers would have been, x * * 1 saw the “Horrible Horrible” driving all over town this week, just as if it was sporting a color of paint like any c‘her car. Well now, | don’t know, maybe he’s got something there. For one thing, that is the way | can al- ways spot the Electrolux man, and he sure is a busy guy. For another, it makes me think of an Electrolux vacuum cleaner every time I see it, and remember that we fave an appointment for a demonstration. Now | made that appointment most reluctantly and mostly to get that monstrosity away from in front of my house, because ! have never had too much respect for an Electrolux. It always seem- ed like a big waste of energy (perish forbid) to drag the darn tank around, but a fri of mine, a tried and true Electro- lux fan pointed out that | push and pull my other vacuum all the while | use it, and only have to move the ik type once or twice whi cleaning a large room. Besides that the attach- ments make work a snap. Oh well, | can be convinced, but it aint’t easy. 1 just had another thought anent the horrible color of the Electrolux car. Do you suppose Mrs. Lubinsky thought that one up so she could keep tract of the old man? It is different you know, and no one would ever paint their car just like it! xk *& Well now, here is a new im- provement in blackboards that will probably eliminate the screeming meemies from invading the class rooms any more, and our children will grown up calm and collected. This will all come about because of the invention: of blackboards made of an enameled steel sheet, light green in color. It has a dull finish with no pores in which chalk and dust can collect and it gives off no glare or screech. To all you poor folks schooled to the screech of chalk on board, this will be a mamory erased forever from the minds of the small ones. kok on Some guys take out gals, others take out hamburgers, indeed! If you ask me a hamburger is a real poor substitute for a cute little patootie aged 16 to 30, but you might make a i sion of the right kind some of the hamburgers from the Sigsbee Snackery out to her and fed her right. They have quite a team out at the Snackery and you should see those guys put up the big orders “to go.” Phil wields the ham- burger turned and flips the toast ed buns and burgers to Joe who puts in the trimmings, wraps and sends them all in a jiff. It’s amazing, and so much better than the mess. and bother of making them for that little mid- night gathering. The other night when | was the got eight hambur; four orders of French Fries in exactly seven minutes.
