SUN SOX TO GIVE
AWAY AUTOS,
TELEVISION SETS

H. B. Taber, Jr.. president of the
Miami Sun Sox announced today
that all women attending the Mon
day night game between the Sun
Sox and st. Petersburg at the Miami
Stadium would be given a box Of
candy.
This is just another step that the
stadium officials have taken to in
crease attendance among the fans.
The Sun SoX officials will also
give away four automobiles, three
television sets and 16 box seats to
all of the 1851 games during the
next three months.
Taber said that he hoped colored
fans would help support the club.
1--WE want to do everything possible
to make the colored fans feel at
home at our ball park and would
like any suggestions forwarded to
u.s." he explained.
When Havana played a three
game series here last week a quar-
tet of Cuban troubadours went
through the audience playing rhum-
has, congoas and samba. Taber
plans to continue with these added
attractions every so often.
1--WE also plan to organize knot
hole clubs for Negro youngsters
and are working on that idea now
With the exception Of the box
seats, all prices for the Sun SoX
games are cheaper than they were
last year at the old Miami Stadium.

MARKET CITY

YESTERDAY, and the day
before, we told you about the
meat stands at Center Market
City, and how you could de-
pend upon meat being cut
right before your eyes. We also
told you that there are thirty
five meat stands at the Market,
each of them waiting to pre-
pare the right cut of meat for
you.
For instance, Ivan Reilly is
there to prepare his famous
corned beef for you. And you've
never eaten cOrned beef until
you have eaten it from this
stand. Corned beef and cab
bage becomes a dish for kings
when it's from this stand
Forty years of experience is
back Of its delicious flavor.
And, time and time again
we've told you about ''Momma'
and "Poppa" Weigert. They're
almost as much a part of the
market as tradition itself
They're famous for their coun.
try-style sausage, made while
you watch, and only from fresh
pure pork, expertly seasoned
Here again, you can watch
your meat being prepared, anG
you know it must be only TOT

NOW, BACK to this fact of
business being so good at the
market: Each week, more peo-
pie are learning that because
there are thirty-five stands
here, there is more than one
stand catering to your pocket
book. No matter what your
financial station i'm life, there
is a meat stand selling the
kind of meat you want, at the
price you want to pay.
So, if you want to choose
your roast in the good OLD
FASHION WAY, or if you want
your pork chops cut from the
loin of your choice, or if you
have been wishing for some
real cOrned beef, or genuine
spring lamb-you know where
to park that car! If you want
Ia hickory smoked ham, genuine
spring lamb, or country-style
IpOrk SAUSAGE steak cut to
Orde7-where else would you
shop but at Center Market
City?
IF, like the customer we told
you about in Wednesdays col
umns, you are weary of buying
pre-fabricated meat cuts, or
you are tired of trying to judge
the meat you buy through a
cellophane wrapper, try shop
ping at Center Market City.
STANDING in line for meats
is another pet peeve. There is
none of this at Center Market
City. Real shopping pleasure
awaits you at our meat stands,
where there is no waiting in
line.

which are destroying much Of the
limited timber supply of this coun-
try. Stumpage sale of timber with
out marking or setting lower

loss to the farmers and such sew

more than one generation will pass
before more returns can be rcaliz-

this waste is due to the lack Of

You can nave confidence, as

Dr.. Colburn also advised the
students to attain the highest

One day, however, I misinter-

that had promised him my wrist

tease me about very much.

The typical Swiss-German home

which Mrs. Peters manages to keep
polished daily. was amazed when
I discovered how similar our house
cleaning methods are to those used
here, such as waxing inoleum, US
ing a small vacuum cleaner for
wooden rugs and so on.
The kitchen and dining room are
on the first floor where food can be
secured, stored and taken away
easily-just one of the practical
ideas used on this farm. The floors
are tile so that they can be washed
easily and quickly. Much of the
kitchen equipment is similar to those
