From where 1 tit. few of us are

a y ear ago last M arch 10 as
one of the ti(M) or more stores of

The dress shop is operated by
a
p artn ersh ip
between
two
ladies w ith considerable b ac k
ground in m erchandising, Mrs.
Emil W. M itchell and Mrs. Ray
G adherry. Mrs. M itchell, whose

MAY’S FUN AND MAGIC
SH O P in the Brookings H otel is

W hile the jokes add th e kicks
to the business, she also handles
a large line of jewelry* and a
variety of gifts for all occas-
sions.
