= SOCIETY — PERSON. DOROTHY RAYMER, Society Editor Friday, June 19, 1953 THE KEY WEST CITIZEN SHOP HOPPING WITH ' What d’ya know, I’ve been back | fa week and it doesn’t seem scarce- | ly more than a year! That’s the} trouble with early vacations, | your’s is all over and every one else is making glad plans. Then! all of a sudden you are left slav- ing on all alone, and it doesn’t | seem like you were ever away.| Memory is like that. Well, Friday comes around once | a week anyhow, and that makes | a little vacation like a tiny island in the midst of a vast sea. while shop hopping’s real fun, breather is swell. Saturday means big shopping too, so let’s be about it, while the sun is still low. i nm mh OM | Whether you are grocery shop- ping tonight, or in the morning, sure to be somewhere near the | top of the list is a small but very | important item of the diet, It’s | eggs. Eggs on my shopping list means Muniz Pride eggs at the Gulfstream Food Department Store, And whether it’s out in Sigsbee Park, or over on White Street, you may be sure that the label that reads “Muniz Pride” fs a real quality label. Remember when you were Studying the geography of the United States in school? | had a picture geography, and on it, Wisconsin and Minnesota were always pictured lush and green with dairy cows, and fat white hens and merry farmers wives churning big crocks of sweet yel- low butter. Well every week a big refrigerated Gulfstream truck travels all the way to Dairyland for a big load of plump white and brown eggs, on- ly a day old. They are hurried right back fast as the law will allow and placed in cartons im- mediately for sale in the Gulf- stream Stores. Besides being such: wonderful tasting eggs, and quality eggs, you may be very sure that they are quite the freshest eggs in Key West. ee * Taking my usual stance while waiting for an ad yesterday, (that's with both elbows“ on — a counter) I read some-of-the cutest bits of nonsense, filled with quite the most good sense per word, imagineable. So with a very nice lady’s very kind permission, I am going to make this Friday's col- umn one of nonsense, and ggod sense, mixed all up with quite a bit of ‘philosophy, “It is well to follow a leader, but wise to maker certain that he is going the right way.” * * * It takes lots and lots of crisp sweet little dresses and sunsvits these warm day to keep baby freh and dainty. You couldn't choose sweeter ones than the In- fant line from Feldman, just ar- rived at Ideal Togs. These little dresses are of the softest finest batiste imagineable, and are all hand made. They are exquisitely detailed and embroideried and come in a myriad of cute as a button styles, Some are button! ed all the way down the front for easy ironing, and dressing too. Some are smocked or em- broideried in dozens of different designs. They come in white, white and pastel, or pastel in sizes newborn to eighteen You'll want to buy them for So} al were cute little oranges, but it was Thursday, and the Garden is closed all day on Thursday, so even St. Pi and his angel wife we ing. If this sounds like a bit of nonsense to you, let me explain that the Garden of Eden is my own description of a very nice nursery, full of beautiful big healthy plants, trees and flow- ers, and is known all over as Baldwin’s Nursery. And so you | won't be disappointed like | was, | don’t go over on Thursda' be- | cause that’s the day that every- | one around there gets a rest, for | the duration of the hot summer | months. * MN *€ Right here and now, before I get jon with the nonsense, I want to | wish little Miss Baldwin a very | happy birthday. A little bird over |at the Garden whispered that her |father’s very best gift on his day, is his little daughter. So have a happy day, and you two old folks can celebrate together. . .at the beach! Here’s the nonsense; ‘To get the full value of Joy, you must have somebody to divide it with.” * 4 *¥ Donald’s favorite scribe, one called Brenda Who writes all these rhymes, sweet and tenda Returned from vacation In great consternation With the curls on her head all un benda, * 4 x Ooh, hold your noses kids But anyhow, he fixed ’em, the curls I mean It’s all over till Monday when we'll make a great big fresh start. Til then, let me leave you with another of those there say- ings that make mighty good sense all of the time. “Great minds discuss ideas. Av- erage minds discuss events, Small minds discuss people.”” $ee you around pondering that last, have a nice weekend until Shop Hopping Time again. Luv and hugs and stuff from ye olde phi- losopher, Jaxon. advt. Happy Time Scheduled By FAWTU Wives The June luncheon for FAWTU Officers’ Wives promises to be something different and cool.
