The best part of writing these columns, other than doing the research, is when I get emails from readers I received just such a letter about my previous Blue Willow column The reader said,” I have one of the dozens of legends about the pattern, given to me by a friend, and one that I have enjoyed showing the grandchildren on my own Blue Willow dishes:

“Three men going to Dover, Weeping willow hanging over Two birds in the sky, Little ship sailing by

There’s the house; Here’s the gate, And that’s the way You read the plate ”

Of course, that led me to want to share another Blue Willow story with you The first time I taught about Blue Willow in one of my classes, I repeated the following legend to the group

“Two birds flying high

A little vessel sailing by A bridge with two men or more

A weeping willow hanging o’er

The king’s castle here it stands

The finest building in the land

An apple tree with apples on it

And here’s a fence to end my sonnet ”

(Anonymous--1923

Cookbook)

Of course, this is not a sonnet, so my English teacher friends don’t need to contact me I think the anonymous poetry writer probably was just trying to rhyme with “on it ”

We have a few pieces of Blue Willow at Howe Mercantile, so come on in and examine the pieces and the legend behind their design Who knows you may fall in love with this beautiful china and start a collection of your own

On a personal note: I want to thank the Howe Chamber of Commerce for honoring Howe Mercantile as the New Business of the Year Each day brings us joy to be a part of the Howe community It is so important for local businessses to be supported by local consumers We are not only an antique shop, although we take great pride in the variety of antique furniture and decorative and collectible items we offer, but we have wonderful gift items for all ages And we do free gift wrapping!

Dr Georgia Caraway, former director of the Denton County Museums for 14 years, and her friends opened the Howe Mercantile at 107 East Haning Store hours are Thursday through Saturday noon until 8 p m She has written four Denton history books and has finished a 5th history about the North Texas State Fair and Rodeo that will be published in August She hopes her next book will be the history of Howe.
