1t must have been interesting to
i've in Key West years ago. We
think we're different from other
owns now but can you imagine
When wild cattle we're unloaded
md driven through the main
streets of town on the way to the
butcher pen?
The dignified gentlemen wear
ing goatees and derbies must have
cursed when they had to dive for
the nearest doorway to escape
these ear-maddened beasts. And
the ladies with long skirts and
high buttoned shoes? How they
must have screamed when an err
rant steer paved up their flower
and vegetable gardens or knocked
down the pillar of the porch! But
I'll bet the children tagged along
behind such cattle drive like an
rmy of youngsters following
Pied Piper.
And when the street level of the
City Hall functioned as a market
place
Vegetables from the mainland,
wilted perhaps, but green and
tasty to islanders tired of grits,
rice, and beans. Fruits from Cuba
Juicy, tasty, tropical fruits. Can
you imagine the colorful scene of
housewives shopping. gossiping,
arguing with the DaeFchapt that

Giant stone crabs. caught loo.
ally, were surplus on the market.
Sacks filled with clans were
brought in from Gulf coast towns
and peddled on the streets.
Horse-drawn hacks would take
you anywhere on the island for a
nickle or ten cents. And the hack
drivers. even in those days, had a
reputation for knowing all of the
latest tidbitS of scandall
Sweeney's was a bar and you
could buy good whisky or bad
whisky, or just pail of beer. You
could also get your throat cut by
some of the rough seafaring Gus
toners simply by asking a wrong
question. But if you knew your
way amongst the sailors, you could
get goods Struggled from half a
dozen different countries Cor the
price of a few drinks.
Those were the days when house
wives used the finest of Irish Ii
mems for dishtowels here in Key
West. The days when bolts of ma

terial and cloth were to be found
in every house as the result of the
familiar Wreck Ashore" call.
They were the beginning of the
period when Key West was to be-
come famous as a cigar center. A
few large factories established
themselves here and any cigar
maker with CUTS and a couple of
dollars cash could have his own
business--called buckeye cigar
factory" A few of these little plac-
eS still exist.
In those times, the city pretty
well ruled itself. To get to ITALIA
haSsee, the quickest way was via
New York. And because New York
was the nearest accessible u. s.
town, Key Westers patterned many
of their habits and styles after the
North. They even permitted that
species of animals known as a
Republican" to stay within the
| City limits!
People built large homes and
| they lived in them. There were
parlors with stiff, uncomfortable
chairs to entertain unwanted com
pany. There were music rooms for
the young folks to carry on mild
fhrtationS, and game rooms TO
'rumpuS' in. The living room was
reserved for the old folks and close
{ friends of tie family.
Those must have been the days!

itch you about them because they've
told me. Told me with CLEAN and
! sparkle in their faded eyes, a mask
of happiness gradually sliding over
their face as they've relived the
old days.
Such times are gone forever. II
their place we have the Present
a Present that can be just as
beautiful if we chose to make it so.
Approximately hundred years
ago, George Banks wrote a poem,
What | Live For" 1t provides the
key for making the past, the pre-.
sent, and the future worthwhile.
/ To quote a few lines;
II live for those who love me,
Whose hearts are kind and true;
For the Heaven that smiles
/ above me,
| And awaits my spirit too;
For all human ties that bind me
For the task by God assigned
me,
For the bright hopes yet to find
me,
And the good that / can do. {"
