WE'RE HOME AGAIN
Penn Weekend and pande
monium are practically synon
omous. Just wish we could
have some more of that pande
monium around. Don't let
yourself settle back into the
dufl routines of classes again,
the cadets are going to
_invade
on Saturday for the first home
game of the season. Why not
make this a celebration too .. .
Ethel has a full selection of
flasks (with or without leather
cases) or perhaps your taste
runs in different channels. If
so. perhaps new flannel bermu
das would do the trick for the
game. At any rate do stop in
and browse.
ALL ROPED IN
As a perfect mate for the
tweed bermudas Ethel has
beautiful hemp belts. They're
imported from Italy and wov
en, like braids, or straight with
antiqued leather and brass
studs. They look perfect with
any kind of sportswear in both
men's and women's sizes. They
start at just $3.95.
TOO MUCH MAIL ??
Has the mail been piling up
lately? No place to store it?
Ethel has the answer to your
problem. It's a coil wire coo
koo bird that comb's in a var
iety of colors including green,
pink, shrimp, white and yel
low. The bird has a feather
tail, stands on two legs and
has a woolen ball for a head.
The unique feature about this
particular bird is his beak. It's
a ball point pen. All this for
just $1.75. (ideal for gifts too!)
FARAWAY PLACES . . .
Is your beau off in some far
away place? Does your girl live
in Timbuctoo? Don't Figh and
pine away. Love can conquer
all distances, but to help it
along why not send a Billet
Doux (miss you card) from
Ethel's.
P.S. Have fun at the game!
