tured this week at Children's
Corner. "Nu Lace" is a dainty
knit fabric that wears and

pastels, they're real dreamy.

Then - lest we be accused
Of forgetting the little boys -

little boys suits. These in ray

soft colcrs. dark pants with
blazer jackets like the rah rah
collegiates of the roaring TWEEN

The best selling techniqlV
we've witnessed these many
moons, is going on right down
by the Kress Store and is per-
petrated by the Junior Class of
the Key West High School. 1t
goes something like this: Get
your Variety tickets right here.
Only one quarter =. -. plus a
quarter" Thus giving it to you
easy. When we embarrassedly
admitted we were stony broke,
they cndeared themselves by in
sinuating we were underpayed.
(We'd never admit it was be-
cause it was Fay day eve.) The
next example of super salesman
ship was shown when a well
known "chantoosey' around
town came swaying down the
street, and one of the kids yelled,
.'you were wonderful in the
minstrel show how about
buying a tickct?" Only a very
stony heart could resist this.
Maybe we should so back to
school!

is no new place to our winter
visitors. was that delighted
TO hear about two ladies from
Ann Arbor. Michigan twhere !
spent four wonderful college
years. who were sent in by a
friend who had visited here
last year. They came Tor sew
eral more of the charming lit
lie imported manicure sets 10

Seems she bought some last
year and they made such a hit
in my Alma Nanny Town. she
wanted more.
She couldn't remember the
name Of the place. but her de-
scription was evidently vivid
because they came straight to
Beachcomber jewellers. and al

We've considered the fish;
boiled, broiled, fried, baked and
half baked until it seems it's
coming right out of our ears.
and we don't like the sound of
1t anymore. So as we rack our
brains for more suggestions Tor
Lentcn meals, why not pancakes?
They can be made SO many
ways and served with SO many
good sauces. We think they're
best made with evaporatcd milk.
Use your favorite mix, and cvap-
GRATED milk instead of fresh.
They are much richer and get
cfustier and hrowner. Maple
syrup is delicious on them as
are jams, jellies, marmalade or
honey. II your sweet tooth denies
you. try creamcd tuna or cream
ed eggs on them. Then, of course
there are potato pancakes and
sour cream. Let's have pancakes.
