SOCIETY — PERSONALS — NEWS OF INTEREST TO WOMEN DOROTHY RAYMER, Society Editor Monday, June 29, 1953 SHOP HOP Happy first of the week to you and also happy last of the month This is positively the very last shop hopper that will ever appear in June of 1953. Just one more day to go and June will pass into limbo too. 51 years ago yesterday the Pana- ma Canal was bought by the United States, today is the anniversary of the death of a great orator, Henry Clay, in 1852 and tomorrow marks the 23rd anniversary of the first broadcast around the world. And that about winds up every- thing for June except the Shop Hopping which we still must finish up today and tomorrow. I have lots of news for you, so lets hurry a little. < «Sek Sead A miniature style smash seen Saturday at Ideal Togs is a play suit with matching wrap around skirt ... size two! The suit is nat- ural color cotton trimmed in gerine and black rick-rack b Ht is belted with straight little shorts. The skirt is full and ful- ler and is a wrap-around button material. This charming model comes in brilliant green too. Of course it’s sized up to six, but the tiny one is so very cute. + % * \ Doesn't the thought of a hot soup Just make you feel all sizzely? But soup lovers hate to forego soup just because the weather’s hot, so for us folks who'd rather go with- out if it’s going to raise our tem- perature and the people who just love it anyhow, I found a cold, cold soup that is delicious. No matter what the name is, because it’s just as good nameless. First take 2 medium sized cu- ecumbers and peel and slice very thin, Then chop one quarter cup of onion real fine and drop in a saucepan with two tahlespoons of butter or margarine and cook about 10 minutes over a very low heat, stirring occasionally. Add one ten ounce can of condensed cream of soup and one-half cup of milk and heat to boiling. Put through a food mill or sieve and set away in the refrigerator to chill. When thoroughly chilled fold in one- cup heavy cream whipped. Sea- son with salt and pepper to taste and chill again til serving. A sprinkling of chopped chives on each bowl of soup is real good too. This will make four to six large servings. a*t 1 don’t know what a lion could possibly be doing out at the Sigs- bee Snackery, but he’s probably ry as one, and waiting for ene of those lion sized helpings test Ice Cream that are up regularly. you ever have a root beer at the Snackery?

So I'll tell you! This screen wire is made of fine aluminum, but each little horizontal strip is fashioned like a slightly tipped minute sort of louvre. The verticle wires that hold the little louvres in place are about three quarter inches apart, so of course made double strong. This screen, while only a very slight @mount more expensive than the regular kind has a dual purpose. It’s not only 4 finer screen to keep out all sorts of gnats, flys and mesquitos, but the little tipped louvres act like miniature venetian blinds and actually provide shade! The di- rect sunlight on the Shade Screened window will not even throw a reflected sunlight square on the floor of your room. By actual test, theremometers plac- ed in regular screened rooms and shade screened rooms show that shade screened rooms are sometimes as much as five de- grees cooler. From a distance of as little as 10 feet, you cannot look into a shade screened house from the house can see out as clearly as | though a regular screen! Call Umble’s Canvas Shop to- day and find out about «his won- | derful screening, exclusive in Key West. * Once when I was a brand new cook, printed on the cover of a Crisco can was a pie crust recipe I've used ever since.
