GAUGE YOUR GLITTER

DEAR Mr.. RyBAR: Is jewelry in bad taste?
What kinds of jeyselry should wear wheng
ANSWER 1t is never bad taste to wear ewery But it's
important to choose the right ewey for the right time
Conservative jewelry will keep you within safe
bounds in the daytime. With simple daytime suit or
dress you are always correct with one. two three
strand pearl choker, small pearl earrings and scatter
or lapel pin Simple gold silver jewelry is always
safe, too Chunky pieces of gilt go well with tweeds
and woods. and so does simple hammered copper.
Diamonds rhnestones cocktail rings. large or snowy
pins earrings, fancy jeweled Watches or anything
else that gtters except for very simple pieces -
should be saved for the dark hours Solitaires the
one exception to the no-diamondsf for daytime rule.
Be CAREFUL even in the evening" to avoid the Christ
mastree look in the amount and mixture OF jewels you
wear. You will find that diamonds or rhinestones mix
well with pearls simulated cutstone ewelry Stones
set in gold or silver may be accompanied by pieces OF
plain gold or silver
In the Office, beware of the too richly populated
charm bracelet and the dangling disk bracelets as well
as the hanging earrings. Ankle bracelets are now con-
sdered tabu as are rings bracelets worn over gloves
Jewely has its seasons too Though gold silver
and rhnestones may be worn all year, opaque beads
crystal shell, cork and coral are summer stock.
Age is another important matter to be considered
Though young girls get away with cute fad jewery
mature women should stick to pieces that are i'm
portant" unusual and simple.
Jewelry gives variety and charm to wonan's cos
tune. But it has to be suitable to be effective.

The Key West Improvement, Inc,
at that time advised Monroe Coun-
ty, Fla, that under no circum-
stances would they sell Meacham
Air Field or any portion thereof TO
the City of Key West, Fla, for the
following reasons:
Il. That the purchase price of
100000 was out OF line and too
low and would not be considered
by said company as fair price
for the two runways and the adj
jacent land sought to be purchased.
%. That their Miami attorney
advised them that If they desired
to sell at any price that they should
sell to Monroe County, Fla, as
the possibility of the City of Key
West. Fla, condemning lands be-
yond its municipal boundaries was
remote and possibly impossible.
SO. That the Key West Improve
ment. Inc. had been dealing with
Monroe County, Fla, under lease
on said airport for the past several
years. and. in view of the lease.
felt that il should confer with and
sell TO Monroe County, Fla, if a
possible reasonable and satisfae-
tory price could be agreed upon.
THAT then said Improvement
company offered to sell the two
main runways and adjacent land
thereto as approved by the City
of Key West and the CAA. and
which area contains $50 acres
more or less, for the sum of $3.50
600 and that the County would
agree TO sell the purchased lands
back to said company if the Coun-
ty acquired satisfactory airport
facilities elsewhere. for the same
sum that il paid for these lands
plus the value of any improvements
placed thereon, which was the
identical agreement proposed by
the City Of Key West, except for the
increased purchase price which
was agree upon by the County
and said company.
The above negotiations depend
upon the County's receiving fifty
percent Of the purchase price from
the Federal Government under
present CAA regulations. Applica-
ton has been made by Monroe
County, Fla, for these funds and
is now pending in the hands of the
CAA. AS soon as final negotiations
can be completed, and the money
turned over to the County, the pur-
chase Of the lands at Meacham Air
Field which the CAA deems neces-
sary. will be accomplished.
