nn , SOCLE SUE JONES, Editor Wednesday, July 7, 1954 THE Happy New Year—fiscally speaking that is! And with the thought of new things in mind— here’s a hope that you all feel like brand new peoples—what with the long holiday. What, you don’t? Gracious—you mean that you did not arrive until 5:00 A. M. from that visit to Great Aunt Agatha’s —and. you must be at work by 7:00277? Here’s sympathies—but, now that you all are home, you can get “rested up”, Would like to call to your atten- tion that the majority of the Shops will be OPEN ALL DAY THIS THURSDAY? Shall we see what they have—so that you all may do your shopping the “blissful” way— by reading the following and thence to-- g2znBes Einhorn’s (corner Angela and Duval) is eliminating some of the “Variety” found there— ‘cause soon they're gonna move! (No, don’t know the new loca- tion, but shall tell you as soon as possible.) TEN PER CENT OFF ON MANY, MANY ITEMS! plus a reduction on some groceries! ‘The first category includes mis- cellaneous things such as DRUG sundries, SMALL HOUSE- WARES, playing cards, station- ery, and practically a thousand and one “various” things. The price will be lowered on such grocery articles as Crosse and Blackwell chow-chow, chut- ney, hard sauce, mint sauce, an- chovy paste—and many, many other cans of this and that (which we all need) found on EINHORN’S shelves! Mind you now, this doesn’t mean everything—but, Jack is a swell guy—and—so—let’s help him with his moving by buying all the things which he’s offering to you at a GREAT SAVINGS at EINHORN’S!

Seems as if the lad—although just reporting in for duty in the Froz- en North (Hah!)—couldn’t resist flying in—jetwise that.is—and so, shall we say a certain feminine heart was not quite the same— when he returned to—Oceania? Seeee Many people. collect bottles as a hobby, and over the week- end yours truly saw a purty white one! It was small-and well shaped—and crystal clear. How- ever, this wasn’t an empty bot- tle, by any means—it contained 2 pale gold liquid and in the days te come—shall tell you more about “HIGH” quality of this bubbly fluid—which mest people prefer icy cold—and especially on these warm, warm days—it is most refreshing! This particular botttle happens te belong to a family by the name of “Miller” and they are kin to the clan “High Life’ and you all should really get to know them better. One—six or a case they're extraordinarily in that they're all real GOOD. Of eourse, their first cousins are the Can branch, but their name is the same—MILLER. So, because they are truly the “National Champions of Quali- ity”—may yours truly introduce all to—MILLER’S—HIGH LIFE????? You'll be ever so glad to meet them! Don't forget mew—ICY COLD! Le «- WELCOME TO: Almena Bet- tinger from Jacksonville, Florida, who is visiting her sister, Sara (and Merris) Warfield.

Have Fun!—and bet she takes back some “heart of the palm” and driftwood with which to make some of her outstanding floral arrangements. Sara has another guest also— Mickey Warfield from Sioux City, Towa—and they sure do raise pretty gals there to. 25S 8 ‘Tis a saying in Our Town that “manana” doesn’t mean tomor- row—it just means not today— and yours truly is all in favor of this! However, there does come a time when you really need the correct time. And—Mr. Pruitt, of 402 Southard Street—can teach anything (clockwise, that is) to TELL THE CORRECT TIME! So, if for some reason that smart watch or clock has suddenly be- KEY WEST CITIZEN come ignorant as to the time— why take it to Mr. Pruitt!

SSB ee= “Better Buildings Built by Ben- nett’"—and because yours truly has mentioned this wonderful construction company at 217 Du- val in connection with homes, may I today call. your attention to the magnificent job he dees with commercial buildings?

Y. Times Magazine by Lois Long— entitled the “Shaggy Hair Story”. There are many who say that when a female is “upset” — the first thing she does is to cut her hair! And, yours truly has indeed seen proof of this ‘mongst her friends. After we hop to a shop— would like to tell you the fascinat- ing switch ( no pun intended) on medal with which the article S2m@e2 When my friends at the Ide: Togs, 534 Duval Streei—said “September Morn” — instantly thought of the picture which has of after graduating from the local high school in 1949.

Or, in other words 8 four-cornered shawl—of palest \lonquil yellow and white—the us- val “tied fringe’ bordering it and whadda know—real rosettes scattered here and there! ‘Tis just the thing to keep that new wee one warm—on, a “‘Septem- ber Morn” or any other time. Can be used as a “carriage throw.” Here’s the startling news —100 per cent Nylon at the ridi- culously low price of $2.98!

Chaplain Eugene Williams offici- ated at the ceremony. Palms and baskets of white gladioli formed the setting for the marriage. A program of nuptial music was pre- sented by Mrs. Margaret Carter, organist and Mrs. Russell Lenox, soloist. The bride is the daughter of Mrs. H. M. Kennedy and George W. Knight. Mr. Saunders is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin J. Saunders, Sr. of 1307 -Pine Street.
