Goes on every Gay over OF me
PET Shop on Caroline Street, and
vou can see it foo! It's sham
war carried on between cookY
the woody monkey and cute
little long haired Peke. When
was there on Wednesday, the
Peke seemed to be fhe aggressor
with CooI<y on the run, but then
Cocky just like a woman was
taking such unfair advantages as
sneaking around from behind and
landing most foul blows.
Nom, who is visiting Just had
TO see the Pet Shop so we were
both there, and both most fas-
cinased. went in apUrpose to

Hear tell that they had a real
nice Christmas program over at
the Lutheran Church Christmas
Eve and little Barbara Renata
Baldwin was one of the singers
there. / was talking to Barbara
and she said that she was going
to be wearing beautiful red nylon
dress, and when | saw her her
hair looked like it would be some
thing beautiful with curls and all.
Barbara was going to be an angel
in the Christmas program but her
teacher had the mumps so they
couldn't put the play on. Seems as
though Santa could have done
better by the teacher than that,
or else teacher must have been
pretty bad. / wouldn't want to
spend Christmas with my neck all
Swelled up, would you?

Ious name, "The Fiddle Leaf
Fig" is sitting over at Raldwin's
Nursery. I've also heard q viei-
oUs rumor that II grows real figs
when II gets TO be i big tree.
Well. Baldwi2is have quite .
few Of these nice trees, only they
are in the small stage now in
crooks, and make nice large
house plants with big shiny
leaves fiddle shaped leaves
which is probably why they are
called that.
Christmas Is over kids, and
It's spring planfin' time. The
almanac may not agree, but

Do you "sit out'' your skirts
after a few wearings? Does the
skirt of last seasons suit look
baggy and out of shape, while the
Jacket seems to be as good as
new? There's a cure for "sat-out"
skirts, or better still. you can take
preventative measure so the fabric
will never be stretched out of
shape even though it's sat on for
hours at a time.
The best custom tailors and
dressmakers control the skirt and
its line with an inside shell Ga
brief lining) of unstretchahle fab
ric. It's not hard to make such
a lining. The right time to do it
is when you make the garment or
just after you buy it.
II the skirt back is cut in one
or two pieces, do line it. Although
a tree or four gore skirt back viii
hold its shape longer. a lining will
insure it's shape. Dresses too viii
keep a fresher look for a longer
time with this skirt control from
the inside, particularly the dress
made in a soft fabric that tends
to give or stretch after wearing.
But whatever the skirt design, line
il and be on the safe and trim
side.
