Ihru the
Looking Glass
with Gabbi
And as we leave the exotic
campus of our beloved alma
mater we say farewell to the
intoxicating aroma of peat
moss and fertilizer and the
dry balmy weather that gives
verve and enthusiasm to each
day—so long. I know how you
all hate to give up Saturday
classes, ROTC common hour,
them lab and chipped beef
—but push on and remember,
it's only for a week. We know
our hearts are forever with
dear old PSU. But wait, be
fore getting that suitcase
weighted down with laundry
and extra golf balls—save
some space for a gift for the
folks something unusual
from ETHEL'S.
For the hostess with the
mostest on the ball ...
A new way to spill, I
mean serve canapes, and
that is on the back of a
wooden turtle. Punctured with
pinheads for toothpicks, this
makes a lovely centerpiece
for any table (except pool or
ping pong). A clever barbe
cue apron for the head of the
house would be the greatest
incentive for getting the gang
outdoors for a steak roast
(providing you're in a fire
place cleaning mood). Still on
the rustic side are gleaming
nut dishes and matching mal
lets. During dark TV sessions,
a spilling wouldn't mean a
sharp glass finish for your
floor.
After five ...
And the evening is getting a
glow on—cocktail shakers and
martini pitchers for the aspir
ing bartenders to mix their
"special" brews. Glasses, so
many, so descriptive, we can't
begin to emote. And so the
moths will starve 'cause the
rugs won't get their usual ash
diet, ashtrays so colorful and
beautiful in Italian crystal.
Gotta go for now, no class
cutting till Whipples weather,
much as I'd love to ramble on
—just let me tell you I hope
your vacation is really great
and your Easter holiday very
happy.
