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.
NEWBERRY RESIDENT DIES
AFTER PROLONGED ILLNESS
Andrew Jenkins Darby, 76, life
long resident of Newberry died Mon

up until three months ago. He is
survived by a number of neices and
nephews.
Funeral services were held Tuesday
afternoon at 3:30 at the West End
Baptist church, of which he was a
member, conducted by the Rev. B. F.
