In the clothes department it is the survival of the fittest and where most of the women reveal their true natures. One rather sweet-faced woman of rather portly dimensions, burned the ear off one of the salesgirls,; when the poor thing suggested that perhaps madam should try something a little larger. From where I stood I would havei thought "madam" to be around: the 22% size, which is certainly no crime. but I guess the sales- girl and I were both way off, as she insisted in trying an 18. Pardon that very weak play on words, but have just returned from the big city where the most popular pastime of ex- changing Christmas gifts is in full swing. Leave it to the practical minded female to ex- change those extravagant whim- sies (and flimsies) that carried the very high price tags prior to Christmas and fill their hot little hands with the long green, the first requisite needed in tak- ing advantage of the many mar- vellous sales. It is one of the greatest spectator sports in existence, about the only one that has no rules, no referees and no holds barred. It has the aspect of a reverse metamorphosis, whereas the delicate creature of perfect poise and manners (the butter- fly) emerges as something less desirable (the caterpillar) as soon as she hits the sales area. After two 18's and a 20 failed to get past the rib cage “sweet- face” went absolutely livid and put it down to the poor quality of clothes handled by the store, and stormed out of there. not at all like the demure lady that‘ came in. You‘ll find the same "too large" attitude in the shoe department, while the savings to be had were considerable, the size range was not. There were audible groans and visible winces as size 8 triple “A” forc- ed her foot into a 6% B sharp snakeskin shoe selling at less than half price convinced that the extra width would make up for the lack of length. or some dumb reasoning like that. To save $10 she was actually willing to wreck the only pair of feet she owned. Some of you are probably ask- lng yourselves. what was I do- ing down there. A most reason- able question to which I have the most logical explanation . . . to buy king size sheets. Well we don‘t actually have a king size bed, but I figured that if I sewed the two sides together to form a sort of tube, instead of changing the sheet I could pull the clean side around (something like that revolving towel you find in restrooms) Clever ? ? ? ?
