Things which sidetrack yours tru
ly or why the writing of your
“BB” can get delayed. Have been
whiffling through my brand new
Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary (at
long last—actually have one—Joan
bad to take her “Edition for Boys
and Girls” back to school— and
anyway, that one had from “P-end
of Q” missing).
Somehow or other have always
found dictionaries fascinating
though must confess to a continual
eonfusion as to the meaning of the
pronunciation symbols. Usually suc
ceed in verbally misinterpreting
Jong “a’s”-4ialf-l6ng “a’s” - cir
cumflex “a’s” italic “a’s” one dot
and two dot “a’s” and a “ligatur
ed d-u” has me completely flab
bergasted. Of course, a “plain t-h:
voiceless” is easier— ’cause yours
truly figures that then one just
doesn't say anything—(which is no
doubt wrong too!)
However, as my friends would
say—when I don’t speak sincerely
and enthusiastically of my beloved
shops—that will indeed be the day
—and so, shall we leave the land
of “phonetics”—'’cause really don’t
need anything so fancy to tell you
of the following:
Stepped in Johnson's Jewelry
Shop, 424 Duval Street and mar
velled anew at the really beauti
ful necklaces, rings, wristwatch
es, silverware, earrings —and
gee, what with Christmas rapid
ly approaching, don't everleek
jewelry as a wonderful present
—especially since Johnson's
net only an excellent selection—
but their price range is widel
Anew shipment of the attrac
tive and useful “hostess items"
made ef aluminum has just ar
rived at Johnson's Jewelry. Still
thinking of Christmas presents,
you'll want to leek ever the serv
ing pieces, trays, ice buckets,
holders and baking dishes, chaf
ing dishes and hurricane lamps
made of this pretty and practical
and durable metal.
Asa last note from Johnson's
ALWAYS KB I P “KEEP
SAKE" DIAMONDS In mind be
cause they'll always be appro
dated—and “KEEPSAKE" an
ables you to buy a small stone
and end up with a large one be
cause ef their original purchas
ing plan.

My Red Shawl looking most
pleased—told me Wednesday after
noon that Lea Rice had married
Miss Dorothy Kramer of Pensa
cola, Fla. and they are off on a
honeymoon, but soon will return
to Our Town.
May yours truly join his many,
many friends here in saying “Con
gratulations —and very best
wishes” to a really swell person
and his pretty bride!

My Red Shaw} decided Monday
evening that she would go a visit
in’- Very shortly afterward she
returned to say that “Miss Emma”
Thompson, “Miss Louise” Brunson
and “Miss Eileen” Williams who
had just returned from a summer
in Hendersonville were not at
home, but she was real sure that
they had had a very nice vacation.
Then she said she had decided
to stop in to see Jessie Newton who
had also just returned home and
whose daughter, Carolyn, is soon
to be married —but she wasn't
there either* Leaving Jessie's, she
went to see Peggy and A1 Mills—
to hear of their trip, but they were
out Monday eve too!
Well, yours truly looked at her
crestfallen Red Shawl and told her
not to get - her fringe in a knot
even if she never did find out why
so many people were not home of
a Monday evenin’. At such reas
surances, she went off again
flapping her fringe happily.

Because ycu ladles have seen
"CARTER'S" lingerie in
“Vogue" end "Harpers" fashion
magaiines, would like to tell you
that no longer need you mtroly
"oh" and “ah" over the pictures,
inasmuch as this famous line,
carried exclusively by HER
MAN'S, Sl2 Duval Street can
now be seen I
Want into pala pink raptures
over an enchanting nightgown,
with corded yoke and inconspi
cious, lovely "pearled" design—
for only $4,981 An adorable white
shortie coat, with a rosebud yoke,
and paarl buttons thrilled me
end even more so, when the
price proved to ba only $7.98!
Bo wise—avoid the Christmas
rush and leisurely look over this
lingerie at Harman's which will
make marvelous presents. Sizes
go through 44 and there ere tail
ored styles—and of course deli
cate, dainty froufrou's to please
a lady's fancy.
Harman's have found warm
p.j's which arc also most attrac
tive! These are the "Carter's"
feather warm brushed rayon and
nylon—and oh, so soft! A bit of
glittar is added by using silver
rick-rack—and so, 'tis not impos*
siblo to ba both glamorous and
cosy, toasty warm ef a cool
evenin'.
KEY-notes: Surries with fringe on
top! Soon this romantic means of
transportation will be seen in Our
Town. (Can’t help thinkin’ yours
truly’s collapsing car problems
might thus be solved, eh?)
Frank Johnson, and Charlies
Wardlow after two years’ thought
and effort are the owners of two
spanking surries—one is red and
blue with red upholstery and the
other is yellow with red upholstery
and black top. The black shining
harnesses have just arrived from
a saddlery. The horses are a big
inare and a gelding. Both are traf
fic trained and careful animals.
Can just see Charlie and Ada
followed by Frank and Doris out
for a leisurely Sunday ride, and do
believe a colorful note will be add
ed to Our Town! Shades of St.
; Augustine where one of the sur
ries came from! More fun!
By their "you know
them— and sure enough they
were—CANARIES! Saw a pre
cious little white tweet-tweet at
the Key West Garden Lawn and
' Supply Cos. 830 Fleming Street
and too, many of thoso lovely
pale yellow ones. 'Mongst the lat
ter wno were chirping away were
three "Green Lizards"! Actually,
this is a species of canary I have
never seen before—with dark
graan feathers! Veree handsome!
BLUE RIBBON PARAKEETS!
This doesn't mean they wear one
around their necks, but is a
guarantee and assuranca of a
mighty fine budgie. Saw some
beautiful parakeets and lovad tha
blue ones.

My Red Shawl came sailin’ in
(he other evening and instantly
yours truly knew that—Emily and
Lee Goddard had returned from
Europe. Of course, excitedly—just
had to hear all about it and learn
ed that of the many trips across
the deep blue, Atlantic pond, the
Goddards enjoyed this one the very
best.
Well, yours truly sat spellbound
when she heard the many places
they had visited and that they had
encountered only six days of rain
throughout the entire trip! Evi
dently there were masses and mobs
of people here—there—and every
where in Europe (except mebbe
us?), and the Goddards saw The
Paysons (he was stationed at the
Naval Base as Chief of Staff)—and
others whose name My Red Shawl
didn’t get because Emily and Lee
were off to see “The Student
Prince” and they were late. (Emily
had taken the part of the Princess
in another production).
Glanced again at My Red Shawl
and knew she was about to pop a
fringe and then she told me that
the Goddards had had lunch with
Gracie Fields at the “Cansone del
Mar” in Capri.
It all Sounded very thrilling to
yours truly, and must see that My
Red Shawl returns to learn more
of the travels of two grand people
of Our Town.
