The most fashionable clothing to wear when buying the snack are pajamas and a housecoat. Pajamas range from pastel flan nel to rainbow striped cotton. Housecoats may be so long that they drag on the floor or short enough to be worn as a jacket. The time element determines what style hairdo will be worn. If “Sallys” comes early most of the girls will have their hair brushed and arranged very neat ly.
