The Key West citizen. [volume] (Key West, Fla.) 1879-current, 1953-02-14
Non Hear Ibis--


makes a plan on paper it looks
so simple! Have you ever thought
how many people work to make
that plan complete? Think of the
number of people behind the Navy
Charity Carnival. Just for the Of
ficers' Wives Candy and Cake
Booth the total is amazing. Was
hoping to get few names Of some
Of the wives who are collecting
cakes - found out there had to
be boxes for those cakes more
people in different groupsl Just
couldn't get complete list for
you this week. Yet each one of
these girls is very important whe-
Their they realize it or not one
girl falling down on her job causes
bottleneck.
Talk about queens the Officers
Wives Club have them by the
score = what could be more fitting
than to have one Of them be the
lucky person to get that perman-
ent wave by Martin! Everyone
seems to be either helping or CIV
ing - did you hear that Bob Dopp
is cleaning the flags to decorate
our booth?
You can see and meet all these
girls at 1890 a. m. on Wednesday
February Is at the Seaplane Hang
ar in front of the cake booth. All
the workers, are to be there. The
girl who has all the headaches for
this, Betty Lenney and her girl
Friday, Jean Group, hope every
one will turn out one missing
means extra work for everyone.
Please come out and meet them
at this preview.
What do you think Of that lucky
golf group meeting Patty Berg last
Tuesday? My understanding is that
this group is growing more than
somewhat Cheers for them! What
is the use of a special interest
group unless interest is shown?
After some confusion as to whe-
ther the Officers Wives Book Re-
view meeting would be February
II or IS it is settled down to the
original plan of every third We'd
nesday of the month - hence We'd
nesday, Februry IS. People attend
ing can look forward to the "Bes.
test" program. That is a very bad
pun - but seriously, if you en-
joy reading you are never without
fine entertainment. Most good
habits are acquired when you are
young so I am told - Mrs. Best
writes for the young. Should be
worthwhile meeting.
You know shoyf the xii o.
w. c. Coffee but did you know the
girls surprised Alice Spicer with
a new highchair for her new baby?
On Wednesday the Naval Station
wives held luncheon at Fl. Tay-
lor; the same day the Fleet Train
ing Group had a Coffee at Echo
asis. Naturally the talk was about
the Cake Booth!
Duplicate Bridge on Tuesday
ended with a tie for high for North.
South. Mrs. Brunson and Mrs.
Moreland tied with Mrs. Benham
and Mrs. Inslee. Honors for high
East-West went to Lcdr. and Mrs.
Drake; 1t. Malkewitz and Ems.
Spears coming second.
