Tid T2ay. yar + se2 SOCIETY — PERSONALS — NEWS OF INTEREST TO WOMEN ITEMS OF INTEREST TO EVERYONE DOROTHY RAYMER, Society Editor Monday, March 16, 1953 THE KEY WEST CITIZEN SHOP HOPPING Well it’s lots of things today, including the date that Uncle Sam says. is your last to file your in- come tax. This is the year that you get an extra day for this un- pleasant task because the 15th falls on the Sabbath when you should not labor. Of course this marks the be- ginning of Irish Linen week too because tomorrow is St. Patrick’s Day, and if you have the luck of the Irish you are right in the swing of things. I have no other claim to the wearin’ of the green than a touch of red in my top knot, but I'll go around wearin’ it anyhow. The best way to be un- popular I understand is to wear orange on St. Patrick’s Day, the orangemen being deadly enemies of the Irish. Good Old St. Pat was the Saint who drove the scourge of snakes ‘out of Ireland and became their Patron Saint from that moment. Speaking of the Irish. . . have you read the report in Life on the state of matrimony in Ireland? Dr. Kinsey should hear about this! Well lets get back to Key West and Shop Hopping, and we don’t mean for Irish Linen either. Siko® Your toddler probably isn’t a cigar smoking baby, as there seem to be very féw of them in Key West, but if he is, toddle get one of those mattresses called “Baby Best.” Of course that isn’t the only reason why every baby should iby Best mattress, pl regular crib size in pink, blue, ye! ow er silver stripe. It is an inner spring job and now packad under germ-killing ul- tra violot rays. tt is Sanitary, non allergic, washable, water- presf, non-toxic, fast color, and flame proof. In fact it is just + the best crib mattress the! money can buy, and it’s only $10.98, The ‘bassinet mattress by Baby Best is over an inch and a half thick and is called a Pas- tel Pad, but it's a firm support for baby in the bassinet, and sells for just $1.99. It also has all the ‘attributes of the large mattress’ except that it isn’t . inner spring contructed. Then of course so that are all supplied with the est possible equipment for c ing for baby, Ideal Togs has the contour sheets to cover the new mattress, in white for 99 cents, With contour sheets you never have the short-sheet pro- bl ind sheets in a tangled mess every morning. - Another nice piece of baby equipment, the Bathinette by Trimble of light tight alumi- hum with the famous “Step-Up” for opening and aluminum tray underneath. This for $20.98. You see, it really doesn’t cost so much to outfit baby after all! The last but net the least for your little Inceme Tax de- duction, the aluminum swing that will give baby so much pleasure and mamma se much more leisure time. It may be set up in any part of the house, and is absolutely safe and will not tip over. It may be de- tached and you have e handy car seat. The swing costs only 97.98. x * * Desert pancakes are a big thing with the Norwegian people and for very geod reason. Here is a recipe for making them paper thin too. Beat two eggs until light In medium-size bow! and blend in ene and one fourth cups of milk and one half teaspoon salt. Sift ene cup all-purpose flour and one fourth cup sugar into the egg mixture and beat with a rotary beater JUST until smooth. Be lisht-handed as over-beating a bdatter tends to toughen pancakes. Batter will be thin. Bake and pre- pare for filling as dessert. Fill- ing later! x 2:2 Speaking of craty people. . . the only crazy ones are NOT the ones whe do not believe dreoly food in town, They will get over it if they go en out end see for themselves. But when they get there... eh boy! That's when you meet eraiy people, it's these charac: ters behind the counter dithing wp the big gieks of stuff. Lots ef folks ge out there te eat AND listen!
