tainable. Many species have been
more or less tried within the linn

them fail to bloom in California,
probably because of insufficient
summer heat. The forms more or

There are two good public
beaches in Key West now. The
CITY beach at the foot of Duval
street is an old faithful. But a
new county beach that is a dllly
has just been dedicated.
It boasts long stretch of
sand, dotted at fair intervals
with permanent umbrellas and
there is long curved pier sur
rounded by water no higher than
the average nose. They've dredg-
ed UP almost enough white sand
to cover the rocks, though there's
still work to be done.
!. The overworked word quaint
was made to. order for Key West.
It's fsnghingN called "a suburb
of cuba-closer to Havana : than
/ to MIAMI. You're likely to bear a
child with a golden skip and
hair talking Spanish "a blue
sttt4ak. Most real Key Westers
spring from the marriages of
Eng1ishmen out of the Bahamas
ana Cubans. The houses are
mostly distorted, shattered rep
Hcas, of Bahama houses. The
cooking veers to the Latin.
! You can charter fishing boat
in Key West or set up an easel
and paint. You can look up all the
tropical trees, flowers and fruits
with exotic names-and send
home a coconut in the husk.
You can 60 through a cigar fac
tory or watch boat load of
turtles dumped into the pens at
a soup-canning factory. (But you
needn't expect to see the Sum-
mer White House-it's off-bounds
to gawkers now.
If you like Key West you can't
get enough of it.
