SOCIETY — PERSONALS — THE KEY WEST CITIZEN SUE JONES, Editor Page 2 “Sleigh bells ringing—are you listening???" — What you’re not? You mean you can’t hear them? Well—f'r hevvenns’ sakes! Just hurry and slip on your snowshoes and we'll shoosh through the snow to the shops! Y’know what? I think there is something wrong with the above— well, anywhooo — ’tis a cooling thought and it just might possibly be that after the next trillion years or so—Our Town will cease to be frost-free. Ah me, — guess I'd better crawl down off that cake of ice (Thomp- son’s) and mosey around a bit in order to tell you of— semez IDEAL BARGAINS! and this yours truly really do mean! Ideal Togs, 534 Duval Street are running two specials which are astonishingly good buys! Boys’ Tom Sawyer Seersucker pajamas—ONLY $1.89! You can readily see that these sold for $2.98 because they are most good-looking and junior can be gaily and comfortably garbed for bedtime and Mother can say erl They now have Sizes 6-16, but sure know that this good buy won't last long — so don’t miss out on it. ANOTHER IDEAL BUY! And - one is a lylu! Infants, tod- $, school girls and boys’ /ES—TWO PAIR FOR $2.98! bangle the regular price of just ore pair is $3.98 and the styles include dress, sandals, atc, Examined the | these and it is excellent—also, amany \cute novelty styles in the CHILDREN’S SHOE SALE: AT IDEAL TOGS! = My Red Shaw! tells: me that this week-end Bernie Papy will leave for Gainesville where Pauline will meet him and they will attend Bernie, Jr’s graduation (BS-BA) from the University of Florida. After the exercises, they'll leave for Balsam, N. C. — and here’s a wish that. they'll, have a most happy vacation time. Understand that later in August, Adm. and Mrs. Duke will join them for a short visit. = Have told you of the MILLER family—and of the little cans and bottles—and of the real family MILLER and now a word about Jee and Ginny Rutman (and: if Vve spelled her name wrong again—shall faint!). They are two of the swellest people and she is real pretty! They had a choice of other towns té live in and go into business BUT they chose Our Town. Now, all know how much yours loves it and am tickled. ever $0 but not surprised when ether people do too! Also, they haven't been here very long, al- though the preduct of the com- pany they represent has. Now, just a wee word about this fine “National Champion of Quality” for which these two lovely people are distributors, Foam and suds (not soap) have | song, story and legend des- | eribe them—but, I'll clue you— an icy cold member of the Clan | High Life—on a warm summer's day is mighty refreshing. How- ever, don’t forget that family name — MILLER’S! You'll be | mighty glad to have made the acquaintance! | a = | My Red’ Shawl tells me that a! certain White Marlin, caught in the surrounding waters recently— might go to college (George Wash- ington U.). It would surely make an interesting and original me- mento of Our Town, but yours truly hopes that the really beauti- ful Pat Towner will remember us any way—and know that we'll never forget her. Wednesday, August 4, 1954 with the news that Pat will short-| ly have as her house guest, Rose- mary Fisher (Ken's sister) who will be visiting from Miami. seSsz=. Would like to tell all you: good People who have been kind enough to choose Our Town for either part or all of your vac tien about a charming little e: ery. This is the Banana Tree Grille at 523 Truman. Meals — breakfast, lunch and dinner are well-cooked and most thrifty. It's a wonderful place to feed the kids ‘cause in addition to the well-balanced menus — they have that famous Howard Johnson ice cream in many, many flavors. If your sightseeing has made you a bit warm—drop in for one of their super-dooper salads. Just the sight of all the fresh tropical fruit will perk up the ole appe- tite. Also, ask that lovely Mrs. Edwards to tell you of the many plants that grow around the— Banana Tree Grille! L ; ee HEAD HANGING or APOLO- GIES TO: David Greathouse for yours truly’s abrupt curiosity about, without a doubt, the most ingenious gadget I’ve ever seen. The other evening at the Fort) Taylor Officer’s Club—was. aston- ished to see what resembled a hearing device—except this had an| antennae! Turned out to be a min- ature radio! | And so, I stuck a little bulb- shaped gadget in my ear — and right in the midst of the festivities —heard a news broadcast. Needless to say—was really fas-| cinated with this and discovered that: David’s father had purchased it about a year ago at a State Fair in Texas, and it is manufactured by the “Privatear Corp.” of New Rochelle. Further conversation revealed} that David (a Lt. j.g.) is on the EPC 618 and has—also, a Japan- ese Bike. This latter would like | also to see— | &s Se S 2 And so, again, am sorry but after all it isn’t everyday you see someone “carrying their own radio” and so—just had aS ask pci ey In sircorditoned eratoit at the Adorable Beauty Salon, you can figure on a new “figure” by taking advantage of the wonder- ful slenderizing equipment found here.

(Apologies to: Ba-Ba—but, | it is an interesting thought!) gs &2= Wonder if you all realize how many buildings in Our Town have been “Built By Bennett“— the construction company with offi at 217 Duval Street. F’r instance—McCrory’s corner and all the shop buildings which were erected at the same time. Next time you’re walking past the corner of Duval and Eaton and you‘re thinking about con- structing a motel, or apartment house, or store—just observe the fine job and think of BENNETT CONSTRUCTION CO. and phone 2-2333! By so doing, you'll know you're calling on the people who will help you Build the Best—as economically as possible and with an eye to the future sound- ness and sturdiness and wear of the building. By the way—they build homes tool =s se =z My Red Shaw! tells me_ that Colonel Bob and his wife — the | lovely and Charming “Miss Flor- | ence” — Spottswood left last week- end for Miami — thence to Jack- | sonville and thence to — just trav- elling.

Avoiding the wick, roll each candle back and forth between the well-soaped palms of your hands. Wipe off excess soap, let the candles dry, and they will burn evenly without dripping or smok-7 ing.
