I guess I've been in a news

heard of ulcers, I can't offer any

Perhaps somebody could push a

Looking Glass
with Gabbi
Here we are decked out in a
slicker and umbrella just in
case of another crazy mixed
up monsoon, heading down to
ETHEL'S in quest of some
thing great for mom. (Watch
out for the puddle, what pud
ddddle, we are now speak
ing to •you from 50 feet below
sea level.) Before we get car
ried away any further, Sun
day is the day the lady of the
house holds the reigns and
breakfasts in bed (until some
thing goes wrong in the kit
chen). At ETHEL'S you need
not worry about the sheckel
situation; aft e r all, it's the
thought that counts. (Down,
boy).
Milk glass without bossy's help
but that's an udder story,
since ETHEL'S has this ex
quisitely fine glass in many
forms—Punch bowls and pit
chers (for adoring and pour
ing), candy and nut dishes
(for entertaining and drain
ing), candlesticks and cake
platters (novi it's your turn
to play Keats). A gift of milk
glass shows fine taste.
More pleasure for picnics and
parties
instead of toting pails of ice
to you outdoor blasts—Scotch
'Coolers and Kaddies are as
neat and convenient as a book
condensation for lit class.
They're gay, perky and plaid,
coming in 3 sizes, small, med
ium and it's easier-to-take
the-refrigerator. Just think of
all the icecold be . . I mean
pop you can carry to keep
the. party spirit with you.
Make Mom's junk drawer
portable
and give her a lovely purse,
perhaps in smooth tanned
skin, patent leather or faille.
The new spring fashion is the
keynote in ETHEL'S selection
with accent on style and dis
tinction. Choose a light gay
straw in many colors to add to
summer cotton charm. What
ever it may be, chosen by you,
with a little coaching from the
guy at third base (namely the
very helpful consultants "thru
the looking glass") will please
your mother and make her
forget all about the red line
under your checking account.
Make it a must this week to
stop in ETHEL'S . .. Adieu all
