SHOPPING | (BY MISS NEWBERRY) Though current magazines, news- Ready for another shopping tour? I know you must be, so let’s go. This week we will “nose” around some places we didn’t take in last week, so if you aren’t familiar with all Newberry firms, you will be before so long. Though current magazines, news papers, and visits to the 10c stores and drug stores, you are evidently well informed by this time that the Hallowe’en season is at hand . . . The Ritz Soda Shop is displaying the most attractive boxes of Hallowe’en candies you’ve ever seen. Of course you know the Ritz handles Schrafft’s choclates, and delicious chocs they are. A box of this kind of candy is a real treat after summer candies. . . You can buy almost any amount of candy in the Schrafft line that you wish. I tried out the little pock et size the other day. Let’s pick up another on our tour. A report of the newest things in town would be sadly incomplete with out a glowing account from Turner’s Jewelry shop. This is a shop after my own heart, always brimming with beautiful silver, china, crystal, jew elry, and a myriad of exquisite gifts too numerous to mention . . . But the new thing is that Turner’s has finished remodeling and the prac tically new shop is larger, lighter, and so much more attractive . . . Woodwork and fixtures are light col ored. The new display shelves and counters are all of plate glass with clear vision fronts and of course this means the things displayed are more brilliant and beautiful than ever.
