, DC CTHALP ArTP WTWS JB2 It'i ufa to ur 4hat It Bummertlroa now In the SiCUmath country . . . And lnca wo really didn't have nr Spring wo eon look forward to on of thoM long, 5?autlful In dian Summari throughout tha Tall months. WHEN I was walking to wards Whytal's the other morning, the loudspeaker in front of the bond headquarters was blaring Gershwin's "Summer time" . . . Which was very ap propriate considering the tem perature. It was a relief to walk into the cool store . . . Where Wan--tia Speer was unpacking some 'boxes of "Summertime" dresses . . On the off chance that they iwon't be gone by the time you read this, I'll describe them . . . iBecause good looking cottons are getting harder and harder jto find. There was one box of striped Hwo-piecers .. . Made of. men's shirting . . . Two styles in this 'material. Both are trimmed with or gandie eyelet ruffles around the neckline and on the cuffs of the sleeves. ': One has a darling nipped-in waistline, and a peplum ... In gray only. The other one is more tail ored . . . And comes in red and . jray. '. Sizes 9 to 15 . . . Price $19.95. " Then, too . . . There were boxes of those smart seersucker suits . . . Which always have .that "out of a bandbox" look, I think. These are checked ... In several different color combina tions . . . All good looking, but it was a green and brown check that intrigued me most. 1 Sizes in this group range from 10 to 20. i All of these dresses will laun der beautifully . . . And wear and wear . . . and wear. J Wanda told me these seer suckers are $19.95, too. ; She also unpacked a few rayon meshes . . . And rayon prints. . . . From Marjone . . . Very pretty and cool-looking ... In larger sizes. ' I think I'd better add ... (As the circus barker would say) . . . Hurry, Hurryl .; . Whytal's ... As you know . . . Is on the corner of Main at Ninth Street. ' TUESDAY morning I walked in the front door of Long's just as the expressman was walking in the bade door . . . Only he was struggling under a load of boxes, cartons and what not. : I asked Madge Long what all these intriguing boxes, etc., contained and she told me that most of them held Fall mer chandise and wouldn't be un packed for several weeks. . One of them, however, she was anxious to open . . . And I don't wonder . . . Because it was full of beautiful C o r de bags which are on display by now. i They were all In black . . . And I just got a mere glance. Madge wanted to show me she bags on display in the front Of the store . . . And ... . really J . . Right now Long's certainly has a nice selection of bags . . . Saddle leathers . . . Alligator grains . . . and lots of others. A few days ago they received a shipment of black and brown faille bags ... In the most novel shapes and assorted sizes . , . Madge told me that several of them are copies of very ex: pensive Corde purses. There are pouches . . . Hand led ones . . . And underarm en velope styles.- These faille bags are light weight . . . And ideal Summer accessories . . . And yet . . . you could carry them smartly into Fall . . . Including tax, the price is $5.94. See them at Long's . . . 719 Main Street. Locating Venus Simple, Reports Local Astronomer By A. B. EPPERSAN ' Mnnv nsrenno wmiA lilrn am opportunity of seeing the planet Venus in broad daylight, but they are at a loss to know just where to look. Friday, July o, win De a aay on wnich any one can find it by following a fpW Kimrtln rilrorllnne tr,r- nn that date, the planet 'and the moon win De very close togeth er. Find the moon and it will be no trick to find Venus. The moon will be west of the sun and will be due south at ap proximately 11 a. m. Let us consider ' the distance in a straight line from one prong of the moon to the other as being one inch. Then Venus will be about three or four inches high er in the heavens, and perhaps a little west. Without too much technical ity, venus win be less than one half of a degree from the moon at some hour of the day. Fur thermore, there if nothing new Tnarnlay. Julf S, 1943 SUapi. and SAofU St! fauut THERE is an amazing selec tion of playclothes at The Town Shop . . . You wouldn't expect a store of that size to carry so many different kinds . . . But then, of course, they're going to move into much larger quarters before Ions. One of the play suits in the window, you may nave noucea, is be-ruffled especially for gals who are flatter than they want to be in certain places ... And the effect achieved by the ruf fles is most flattering ... If you know what I mean. There are others of this type, too. The Town Shop features the famous, nationally advertised lines put out by Catalina, Gsnt ner and Cole of California . . . In. halters-and-shorts, midriffs-and-shorts (some with addition al skirts), play suits and play dresses . . . And separate shorts, too; some with suspen ders for easy wear with short blouses. There are plain and figured cottons, rayons and beautiful cool jerseys . . . Just too many to mention specifically . . . You'll have to see them for yourself to understand what I mean by "amazing selection"! Prices of the playclothes range from $2.79 to $16.95. At the Town Shop . . . Main and Fifth Streets. au & gift sup FROM what I have seen in my wanderings around the stores, I would say the big gest selection of flower con tainers is to be found at The Art and Gift Shop . . . But you can't appreciate the va riety and choice unless you drop in and see for yourself. There are vases, bowls, jar dinieres, centerpieces, in pot ter', ceramics, china, lucite, clear glass and milk glass . . Flower holders for every place in the room, in every room and outside. In wall vases, for Instance, you'll find beautiful, cute or odd shapes . . . Tiny pots up to very large cornucopias . . . Really just about every shape that could be used on a wall . . . And priced from 65c to $15.0(3. The shop has most attractive ivy bowls, too ; . . In metal or mirror-back holders . . . And in all. sizes. But, as I said, you ought to go see this big selection of flow er containers yourself . . . There really are far, far too many to describe in detail . . . And just a few of each type. At The Art and Gift Shop . . . 519 Main Street. CUBJUN'S has just ' received a shipment of Early Amer ican toiletries . . . Which is good news for those of you who are fond of "Old Spice" and "Friendship Garden." Connie Baert told me that the store now has a larger stock of these products than it has had in many a moon . . . Bath salts . . . Toilet water . . . Dusting powder . . . soap sachets. The popularity Lovely of "Old Spice" and "Friendship Garden" is well established ... It's been several years since they were first advertised nationally . . . And they're best sellers, be cause people keep coming back for more. , Some reasons for this might be that the line is so attractive ly packaged ... So quaint . . . Decorated with powder-wigged figures . Scattered with col onial bouquets ... The old fashioned bottles . . . And the lovely old-fashioned fragrances. And of course . . .- Any of the items make such nice gifts . . . As you probably know from experience. All of these Early American toiletries are priced at $1.00 plus tax ... (A nice change from prices with a lot of con fusing odd numbers!) At Currin's . . . The Friendly Drug Store ...

Shade the eyes from the sun, or stand on the north side of a Duliding when viewing Venus to save eyes from iniurv. Take a little time when looking for it and remember that the thing you are looking for is about 120 millidn miles distant.
