SOCIETY, — PERSONALS — NEWS OF INTEREST, TO WOMEN ITEMS OF INTEREST TO EVERYONE SUE JONES, Editor Friday, June 4, 1954 THE K “Thoughts turn toward the girls and boys’ who. graduated today) d from the High Schools in Our Town. Disagree completely with George B. Shaw’s statement—‘‘Ah, youth, it’s wonderful—what a shame to waste it on children”, It is the time of your life when ebullience, enthusiasm, idealism, and ambi- tion sorta take care of the also present tendencies toward folly, hurt and immature judgment.’ Shall not make any creaky state- ments about their glorious future, thresholds crossed, etc.—but in- stead would like to — you all as Please pause a minute x member the day you graduated! The same thrills and happiness are now known by—the Class of *54—~and to them—the very best of all things grand and glorious— may your life be a continuation of the joy you know this day! SssHees Hey, did you all know that there is television in Our Town? The Bamboo Room, 422 Smith Lane has a set and it works! Was really a thrill to see itt This is truly the most delight- ful place. Couldn‘t help thinking of two songs — “Cocktails for Two" and “Bamboo” which real+ ly typify this charming spot. And — in the evening — why not drop in and request them or your favorites from Don Albin who sings and Jack Hendrix who plays the Hammond Organ? Or, while away the cocktail hour here—watching TV! Yes, they do serve delectable potions! For fun and relaxation—the Bamboo Room! - Sees My Red Shawl tells me that Ernest Hemingway will sail from Spain about June 5, and he and his wife Mary will go directly to their home in Cuba. He is still a long way from being well. His. in- jured back which I don’t believe was mentioned in the news stories, is really giving him trouble. Here’s ‘a wish that return and rest will have this marvelous authdr ” feel- ing better soon’ sess Of all the presents the bride will receive, the one which will prove to be personal and pre- cious is the gift from the groom! Men have been, purchasing jew- elry for their betrothed since 1898 at Johnson’s Jewelry Shop, 624 Duval! Why don’t you do the same—you won't find a better selection, quality or price! They have really lovely things at this recently built beautiful shop. Jools for m‘lady—gifts in- cluding silver or that magic “Dirilyte’ tableware, plus @ reputation for integrity and reliability are found at John- son's. esaez= . Was surprised to see Jeanne Kirke the other evening. She’s visiting her mother, Jessie Porter Newton and says it’s wonderful to be back home. i Jeanne lives now in the Village in New York and is “free lancing in textiles”. She'll return in a week or so, but then hopes to go to Mexico for a few months. Jeanne, my Red Shawl tells me, is rapid- ly making a “name” in the world of art. Remembering some of her work several years ago, can read- ily understand as she is good. , [ee ee Speaking of Mexi¢cv—let’s go! Just for Ten Days! Simone’s Tours, 510 Southard Street will arrange your reservations, but let me tell you first of this won- derful Travel Treat! The fare of $110. plus tax is the lowest ever offered for a trip to Magnifico Mexico! A ten day tour of Mexi- co City, Acapulco, Taxco and other enchanting spots—plus the thrilling sights can be had for for only $99.00! This includes everything, but items of a per- sonal nature such as meals and night life and tickets to enter- tainment (bull fights, etc.). When an inexperienced travel- er has the opportunity for @ good tour—such as the one offered to Mexico, via Guest Airways— there shouldn’t be any hesitation, because Simone’s Tours know how to get you more enjoyment and economy on your vacation this ‘year! Phone Simone’s— 25722! 22 = 22 DETAILED EXPLANATION DE- PARTMENT: My Red Shaw tells me that there might be some Key Westers who think yours truly does not know the story and origin of ‘“Shawl- ing”. Some time back, in your “BB” I explained that Rayford thought that would be a good title for the column and I agreed ex- cept that in addition to visiting EY WEST CITIZEN Page 3) meant gossiping, and that we don’t lo. However, while I am shopping, my Red Shawl is worn by many people, and when it returns, it “shawls” with me—and thus I learn the news of Our Town, and everything is checked as much as possible. So, please—an apology to those who might take exception to my use of the term “Red Shawl” and |” may I add, that no one has more respect or love for the traditions and legends of Ouf Town than yours truly—and her Red, Shawl! 25 = Se Goodness sakes alive! But that Earl at Fausto’s Food Palace, 522 Fleming found some of the best, sweetest tasting watermel- ons and is selling them for only —29 cents! This is truly astonish- ing! Needless to say, Friendly Fausto’s are proud of him! So— don’t forget to show your appre- ciation and buy one or six or so —just ask for Earl and his watermelons! They’re really good! Always go in Fausto’s by the back door—‘cause then I see all their fine, choice, high quality, tender meats! Yesterday there was grinding and chopping and slicing going on at great rate. Some one else had taken ad- vantage of the offer now being made at-Fausto’s—BUY YOUR MEAT WHOLESALE! So, why don’t you step in that big Meat Locker, and select a quarter or half of beef—just pick it out— tell them the grade you wish— how you want it cut and pack- aged and you'll really save money! By the way, if you don’t have “a Home Freezer—go to Home Appliance and inquire about the Amana! A model of this dandy one is on the floor at ‘Friendly Fausto’s! An unbeatable way to save on your grocery bills} zsepSee JOAN’S CHUMS: The other night at the, Seaplane Base Pool, . the Hutchins daughter, Helen, had a lovely party for Hennie Ashcraft who is leaving soon. Joan tells me this one—from Curtis Hutchins — “Frozen band aids for cold cuts’! SsSsa=f “A and B” Lobster House, 700 Front Street is really the “A, B, C, D, etc.’’ of good eating. Hi you can get a whole broiled F: ida Lobster, with french . fries, slaw and a hush puppy = (this doesn’t mean—be quiet, dog— but is a sorta Southern fritter which goes so well with sea - food!) for only $1.50! And the view of the Gulf and fishing wharf and shrimp boats —is free when you dine at the A and B Lobster House. Visitors —don‘t miss this! g2a222 My Red Shawl tells me that soon “Hoke” Holcomb and “Bookie” Henriquez will be home from Duke University. Here’s a “hi” to the many college kids who will soon be back home for a care- free summer! S222 When the bridal tulle is tuck- ed away, then Mrs. Newly-Wed will really appreciate the prac- tical gifts she has received!

Several things | saw will make purty, but pra I gifts are— the New Ekcoware— Listen—pots and pans are ne- cessary!

Take your watch er clock to Mr. Pru- itt if its minutes are ing. sane Receiving a diploma will mean also the fun, challenge and neces- sity of looking for a job for many of you. Somehow or other, boys never seem to have difficulty land- ing work, but girls do.

Thus comes the phrase—| “shawling”’. Say, if you don’t want to mail| contributions to the contest (any-| thing of interest or humor)— you may phone them in.
