SOCIETY — PERSONALS — NEWS OF INTEREST TO WOMEN Telephone: Citizen Office, 2-5661 SUE JONES, Editor Thursday, August 12, 1954 THE KEY WEST CITIZEN Somehow or other am_ finding myself a bit backwards today. The column is finished—except for the beginning and end. Am not too sure just how yours truly accom- plished this—but ‘tis so. However, let’s say “hello” after instead of before—yours truly slipped to the shops. Missed your company, but ’twas a warm day—so, let’s do your shopping for you—the blissful way —and here’s the scoop on where I went— gs2S 25 The Bamboo Room, 422 Smith Lane, is the perfect place for re- laxation and refreshment. The beautiful bamboo decor, the cool- ness of the air conditioning, the unusual murals, the excellent mixes and potions and the top entertainment—combine to make this lounge one of the very ni est spots in Our Town. Would like to tell you about Frank Lympach who is now playing piano there. He has an impressive _ professional back- ground, and he brings all the sophistication and talent of “beeg time” piano playing to the even- ings at the Bamboo Room. For sure, it’s true—he’s as good as you'll soon be hearing he is! Of course, Don Albin is still singing those wonderful popular songs—plus those unusual ones which are beautiful, but for some strange reason never clicked. Be sure to hear “Two Purple Sha- dows in the Snow’—‘tis grand! And this lad can really sing—at the Bamboo leet s The oe mons as I stood by the large and gorgeous avacado tree, admiring the bird of para- dise plants which circled its base looked about the beautiful and spacious garden of Susan and Irv- ing Scott in which many old and good friends had been invited to greet Helen and Bowman Cutter during their visit here. Because Wea of US Spprect jate something a bit different—a little individualistic—would like to in- troduce. you all to the—Overseas Fruit Market, 934 Truman which specialize in fruits and vegeta- bles and too—they do have good, fresh eggs — and flowers and FRESH ORANGE AND GRAPE- FRUIT JUICE—but Overseas is a bit more than just a produce market. It is definitely a place you should visit—because it has a personality all its own and the atmosphere of the wonderful casualness and friendliness which is so typical of Our Town. Here you will find any species or variety of fruit or vegetable. In the latter line, they carry all kinds of string ins, fresh cau- liflower, ‘okra, watercress, pai ley, and ALL the different let- tuces—romaine, Boston, iceberg and the curly endive—plus every- thing that grows in the vegeta- ble line. LAST OF THE MANGOES! Don’t forget that this delicivos tropical fruit is just about te go out of season, but Overseas still have some. However, there are still papaya, Cuban bananas, and all the other wonderful fruit for which Overseas Fruit Market is famous. 22 = 22 It was truly a lovely party—with graciousness and friendship and the Scott’s excellent hospitality. The ladies, as usual, wore lovely and pretty frocks, but the gentle- men hit a new high in sartorial finery. Because I think it’s grand that the Northern theory that men should be “color cowards” is dis- carded in Our Town—would like to tell you — zz mee Because the A and B Lobster House, is located on the second floor at 700 Front Street, every- where you look—you are met with a breathtaking view of sea and sky and shrimp boats and sionally, a Navy ship will steam along—practically under— you dinner plete. Oh—and they do have the mest marvelous seafood platters—all the “catches” of the very sea— you see at the A and B Lobster House! : ER EaE EE Buz Zurhorst wore a handsome gray and pink striped sports shirt, with stunning pale pink denim trousers. (If there is no more “BB”—means he’s carried out his threat to “feed me to his logger- head turtle”!) Maris Warfield combined a dark green (beautiful jade shade) sports shirt with pale green trousers and the shirt had a design of small, modernistic horses. Other striking, but good looking sports shirts present were Jerry Trevor’s white one with small red sailfish print and Admiral Town- er’s white one had dubonnet music clefts combined with a small ab- stract pattern in the same shade Becéuse’ Fidame Spends 2 much time in the kitchen—let’s daydream of the perfect one. By phoning 2-3621, to make an ap- pointment for them te call at your house, et dropping in the Home Appliance Co., 605 Simon- ton Street, you can plan and have just the kitchen you need and want—‘cause they are migh- ty expert in this field.

Every year, at the beginning of the school year, the Auxiliary helps some underprivileged family to clothe their children for school. It also provides books for the chil- dren, and any other items neces- sary to launch them properly on the school year. : This family is provided for under the care of the welfare chairman, Mrs. Eula C. Sawyer. The name of the family is not publicized, in order to spare them embarrass- ment. This year, a family has been selected which has two school age children. The father is blind and cannot work, and the mother has recently had a major operation. The Auxiliary chairman feels that this family is deserving of* help from the group’s welfare fund. A cake sale will be held, under the direction of chairman Mrs. Frances Loeblich, on September 4. A Duval Street location will be named. Home made cakes and candies will be offered for sale at this time. Funds will go to welfare projects. A benefit roast beef supper will be held on August 21 at the VFW home for the emergency polio drive. Mrs. Eula C. Sawyer is chairman for this supper. Tickets will be on sale this week. Anyone wishing to reserve a ticket may call Mrs. Sawyer, 2-2055. Hospital chairman Mrs. Edith Aritas has worked with VFW Com- mander Charles Machin to formu- late plans for the big Hawaiian party to be given Monday night at the Naval Hospital. All members are urged to attend this affair. Patients will be provided with leis to wear throughout the party. WINDOW WAS JUST TOO CLEAN DETROIT (#—“It was so nice and clean I didn’t know it was there,” Edward Kubasiewicz said. He was explaining how he hap- pened to walk right through a 20- by-70 inch plate glass window in a front door at police headquar- ters. « Kubasiewicz, on his way to get a driver’s license, wasn’t even scratched. HOME FIRE HAZARDS At least 12 per cent of home fires are caused by misuse of electricity, reports the U. S. De- partment of Agriculture. If you in- crease your use of electrical equip- ment, especially high-wattage and automatic appliances, make sure to modernize household wiring systems. Some estimates hold that as many as half the home wiring systems need modernizing to keep pace with air conditioners, tel- evision sets, home freezers and other appliances, So, if you're building a home _ or would like to change your Present kitchen—don’t forget this excellent service of Home Ap- pliance Co.—who are dealers for “YOUNGSTOWN”! Fes se Carl Hilton wore a beautiful lightweight wool challis sports shirt with a real paisley print and I'll bet it came from India, and Bow- man Cutter sported a deep-hued print from Hawaii. Another outstanding casual shirt was worn by Bob Sauer. It was a hand-woven cotton which was de- signed by “Jim Tillet of Taxco, Mexico”. The design was hand- blocked of dark brown masks on a shaded lighter brown background and the buttons were minature copper masks, also handmade. The pale brown chalked striped trou- sers were a perfect choice to set off this unusual and handsome shirt. = SE = How many times—after you've finished your grocery buying—at Bill’s Supermarket in Poinciana. —have you found at the last min- ute that you've forgotten some- thing? And then to make matters worse—usually the neighbors are not home and this is to remind you that Bill’s Supermarket is open until 7:00 p.m. everyday ex- Sunday—and then they close at 2:00. Se, now with supper saved —let’s talk a bit more about Bill's. This is one grocery store the kids love to visit—‘cause they get FREE LOLLIPOPS. Loved the remark Poppa Louis told me the other day of the little kid who took the lollipop and then said— “have two brudders”. Stop by Bill’s—where neighborliness and fine groceries and marvelously tender meats are srondl = = Burt Garnett arrived all in white —trou and Cotton Cuban Coat and a perky yellow bow tie. And Ed- win Trevor was very handsome in a tropical black and white cord hand tie. Toby Bruce appeared in brown and white striped shirt with |creamy tan slacks.
