THE ISLAND CITY

well up a channel. Dropped in
on the little development Glenn
Price and Tom Woods are working
at. They have dock frames which
they are to extend to the channel
and a small frame house going
up. 1t may be that boats will be
run out of here for tourists. Using
the auxiliary we chugged over
rock lodges. Having no ticker
we went overheard with an iron
rod to get the crawfish in the
open. Then zlng went the grains
from a friends hands in the boat
above and crawfish was brought
up cracking its whips and armor-
ed body in protest. Returning
through Northwest we ran by the
five planes anchored in the Main
Ship Channel and destroyer
promptly put strong searchlight
on us and kept it there. We had
no intention of sWiping one of the
planes but if we did we could not
have under all that limelight.
KEY WEST PUBLICITY BU-
REAU will not only kill off a
great deal of the false. rumors
about Key West now floating
throughout Florida and even
many parts of the coutry, but will
substitute real publicly for it. Be
hind the movement is Bill Lee
and the Key West Hotel and
Apartment House Association is
thinking of backing him up on the
proposition. Bill says he has the.
contacts throughout the country
to get Key West publicity in big
newspapers. And he's rarin' to
go with big ideas. He would like
to have the services of a photo
grapher and necessary mechanic
al work to dish out the publicity.
Bill points out that many news
paper articles now going out of
the city, which treats the news
angle of proposed high bridge
tolls or rainfall filling .cisterns
and the people happy or gives i'm
pressions of feature men, are
harmful to great extent. There
is a unique element and atmo-
sphere here which may, be easily
captured and which will make
good reading in the metropolitan
newspapers.

THE THOUGHT OCCURS tina


Christmas will soon be with us.
Why not drop your friends one of
those poppy little wooden crates
chock full of green Florida
Key Lines with their very much
superior citrus juice packed in
side? Your friends will in turn
tell others of this and the word
and taste will soon get around. As
a matter of fact, why wait until
Christmas? You're going to write
your friend soon, anyway.
TALK is rising around town for
stimulus of another Winter Pro-
gram designed to reach even fur
Their than last years. The idea is
to reach the elderly folk who do
not spend their evenings dancing
as do younger folk. For them a
program of card playing, check
ers, chess, perhaps mild games
such as SWITCHBOARD is contem-
plated. The W.P.A. Recreation
Department under Mrs. Eva War
ner will look into the program.
Many clubs and other organiza-
tons in town stage elaborate af-
fairs during the winter. Among
these are Woman's Club, Junior
Woman's Club, Jaycees, Key West
High School. Bolstering these
private affairs will be art exhibit
tons at the Ar Center and con-
cefts by W.P.A. Band.
