SUE JONES, Editor ‘Thursday, August 5, 1954 Was real glad to see Our Town have a fling at a community Bar- gain Day, (Retail Merchants - Chamber of Commerce) ‘cause yours truly has witnessed the ter- rifie success of such an enterprise elsewhere. Also, when all is said and done—you save money and too —meet more friends whom you haven’t seen in a month and a day —that way. Well, you all know that good buys please everyone and _here’s the hope that you all found some mighty swell ones, and perhaps for some reason or other such as baby sitting problems—you didn’t have a chance to get downtown— so, would like to tell you of the following “where to shop” and the “buys and bargains’”—and even if you had a whale of a time shop- ping—let’s amble around again, eh? . ; SEezmeee Overseas Fruit Market, 94 Truman, is undoubtedly the most interesting fruit and vegetable shop in Our Town. Many things contribute to this—first off, they carry the finest and most varied selection in Our Town. Secondly, just browsing around (sipping some of that freshly squoozed ice cold orange or grapefruit juice —all the while,) and marvelling at the many kinds of tropical fruits and lastly, ‘cause if you might ha) to want some par- peice puacige or vegetable, they‘ll have it! Mary people in Ovr Town might be remembering that this Is the time for berries and cher- ries and—Overseas has them— black—blue—and bing! Also — they have AVACADOES te burn —but who would want.to de such a thing with this delicious fruit you can eat them and buy them here as low as TEN CENTS for the small ones! By the way, would like to men- tion today—Overseas Fruit Mar- ket will ship their wonderful fruit by’parcel post and: don't forget that there are still all species of mighty fine mangoes which would surely make an ex- cellent gift to. an out-of-town friend! This is really one shop you should visit! It’s truly unique, in- dividualistic and you can sure find anything you want and that includes all those many things you toss in a green amass ory, endive, romaine, wa’ jercress, ace celery, etc, DON'T OVERLOOK OVERSEAS FRUIT MARKET! a ze oe Se Guy de Maupassant was not only an excellent short story writer, but his insight and literary handling of the foibles of the human race were remarkable. ‘And so, must tell you of a hap- penstance in Our Town during the Bargain Days. In an Office Sup- plies Store, many articles of mer- chandise were marked down — and there was a general “clearance” table. AN that day, one “Daily Jour- nal” was picked up and put down. Other things were purchased and always this one article seemed to attract attention but no questions were asked. Finally, about four o’clock that day, the “journal” was again pick- ed up and this time, the person said, “Is this free? ‘Cause it is marked that way.” When they were reassured that that was so — they left the store — with their 1953 Daily Journat. The name Einhorn has been known for years and years and years in Our Town as representa- tive of excellent merchandising and grocering. You can see the present happy results of combin- ing these two operations at Ein- horn’s Variety Store, corner An- gela and Duval Street. ‘Mongst the many things found at Ejinhorn’s are plastic brooms! And—shall clue you that they are really sweeping the prices on all articles here to a new low! (it’s just because they're moving!) F’r instance— canned artichokes — anchovies, curled and elongated and in paste—pickles—olives and vine- gars — all kinds including wine with garlic, tarragon and malt —plus many, many other canned good items (Crosse and Black- well and Monarch brands) are REALLY REDUCED! When you stop in Ejinhorn’s Variety Store — read the signs there which will point the way to great savings for you on many things! = My Reena tine that Na- talie and Manuel Bo recently cele- brated their twentieth wedding an- niversary. Congratulations and THE KEY WEST CITIZEN your darling house on George Street which Harles and Betty Parmlee built some time back. [.: 2 8 One of the many reasons yours truly loves to shop in Our Town —is that — well, now the other day went out to Bill’s Supermar- ket at Poinciana and chatted and visited and thought—"“you know —this really is a fine supermar- ket with wonderful products and operated by grand people’! Then, of course, tasted some of that marvelous, freshly made po- tato salad (picnic note) and wan- dered about this neat, clean and nice Supermarket. Stopped at the meat counter te speak with Chuck and we dis- cussed beef, and pork and lamb and ham. Y’know planning and cooking a dinner is a lotta fun, but golly, it’s sure an unhappy moment when the meat turns out to be tough! And so, would like to remind you that Bill’s Super- market—Poinciana carry high quality, tender meats and they‘ll cut it te your specific order!

But, many of us I am afraid, give support without full realiza- tion that this is not enough; that our awareness of all the implica- tions of this vast struggle, and our active determination never to relax our vigilance, are also vitally necessary. “To me, the United Defense Fund is one way in which we can show our sensitivity to the under- currents of the continuing battle for freedom, and our awareness of responsibilities to our armed services and the defense effort.” United Defense Fund, which fin- ances USO and four other de- fense-related agencies receives support through Community Chests, ineIndi-s the Community Chest of Key West, Inc.
