thru the
Looking Glass
with Gabbi
Hush, you muskies, it's time
for retreads sure is tough
plowing around this campus
of late, the only ones at home
are those with fur-lined hip
boots—let's go spring! That's
when a young man's fan
turns to what a woman thinks
of all year round—and what
you should be thinking a
-
right now—is a quickie trip
to ETHELS, the home of the
unusual (did you think I was
going to say brave?)
Copper isn't that guy who
gives out tickets
in ETHEL'S, it's that beauti
ful gleam radiating from glass
shelves in the form of teapots,
planters and carafes. These
are those pyrex coffee-keep
me-warms, in copper stands
with copper cork-tops—what's
this world coming to we'll
soon be using copper book
covers—and what will happen
to the penny industry? These
gargets make great gifts for
trousseaus or housewarmings
—got any in mind?
Dress up that room or suite
with some beautiful lamps
from ETHELS that provide
that soft glow and direct light,
so important for studying or
playing bridge. Many styles
to suit the setting and many
prices to suit the purse—
don't be in the dark, get in
the know! Toss around a few
gala colored pillows, hither
and yon, over cigarette burns
in upholstery or spilled coffee
—besides they add such a gay
note and make great head
rests or pillow fight equip
ment.
An illuminating experience
for you ...
a handful of electricity in the
form of a "Cozy-lite" that
comes in several colors and
clips on your book or head
board. It's the greatest for 2
o'clock book reading sessions
when your roommate subtly
hints about the glaring over
head light as he buries his (or
her) head under the mattress.
(Looking for a monkey
wrench, no doubt). They're
clever, handy, and only 1.95.
Of course ETHELS is the
place to shop—we'll see you
there. . .
