Mother Used to Make.’’ a era By Biddy Bye. St. Valentine was a Christian mar- tyr. He was never the patron saint of love, His name day, February 14, just happens to fall on a pagan feast day when the youths(and girls of ancient Rome drew lots-ag true lovers. It was their custom to place the names of the young men and maids in a box and to draw them out in pairs. Those whose names were drawn to- gether became valentines for a year and exchanged presents as pledges. Later, only the men made the gifts. But now, once more, the. earlier pagan rite of exchanging gifts is high- ly popular, as this modern fete day af- fords one of the few occasions when a fair maid may send a present to a man to whom she is not engaged without breaking the conventions. As usually celebrated, St. Valen- tine’s day is also a variant of an old English custom which was based on the legend that the birds choose their mates on February 14. For this reason, turtle doves figure conspicuosly in the finest of the old valentines—and not because “dove” rhymnes 80. conveniently with “love.” The. old fashioned lace paper ele- gancies were elaborately and artisti- cally decorated with pink robed Cu- pids, hearts and darts, and true lovers’ knots of pale blue ribbon; and they contained verses. of extraordinary sweet sentimentality. But realism has invaded—some say has spoiled—the valentine of today. Now the sweets which lovers send stick of candy ticd to the shoulder of a pretty lady painted on a card, A verse to go with her runs: The greetings ‘that I have for you Have taken shape, you see, All twisted in this candy stick— Accept them, please, from me! A girl may read as much or as little into this kind of verse as other Realism Invades the Valentine of Today; Sweets Lovers Send Now , Are Material, Says Biddy Bye are quite material, as for example, a, circumstances permit. \ Old and New Valentines Both Stickily Sweet, This lack of emphasis is quite .cahracteristic of modern love. But there is no limit to the cost of the bonbons which such cards may accompany, $25 being a not unusual price for a few pounds of sweets and one of the gorgeous boxes which the PACKED HOUSE ATTENDS “Th BLUE PARADISE” Viennese Musical Filled with Var- iety and Color, but Lacked “Pep’’ of Youth “The Blue Paradise,” the Shuvert Viennese production, proved to an au- dience that packed every available seat at the Auditorium last evening that it is a musical comedy filed with life and ‘color, but as for youth, which is so vital to the success of operettas. it needs to be born again. : The play has a beautiful litte plot, dealing with the son of a wealthy Aus- trian gentleman, Rudolph Stoeger, a constant visitor at the “Blue Paradise Inn,” who falls in love with Mizzi, a flower girl, and has promised to re- turn and marry her after he accom- plishes his purpose in America, ‘Twen- ty-four years later he returns ty Vi- enna, the setting of the play, and meets his former companions only to find that they have aged and aye not the same as they used to be, but they all decide to have one more jolly night at the “Blue Paradise Jnn.” ‘Rudolph hopes to see the Mower girl, forgetting th e, tov, .nast have aged, and is astonished when she appears before him, but it soon develops that it is not she at all, but the daughter, and that the mother has married one of his boon comp2ntons. Rudolph consoles himself by marrying the widow of his late partner in Am- erica, who has followed him all the way from Chicago. “Aut Wiedersehn” is the musicd of the production, but the B audience could not appreciate it in the absence of an orchestra, which is needed to give the lyrics their pop- ularity and a more breezy effect on the audience.

Press comments speak of it as a mus- ical comedy of irresistable charm, There is a lilt in its measures and a subtle fascination in its song hits that leave a haunting memory. There is an instant temptation to whistle its engaging “Rackety Coo.” It is tuneful from the opening to the clos- ing lines and its presentation by the company is said to be well night per- fection. Its musical numbers throughout recall such past favorites as “Mad- ame Sherry.” The play has a swing and naivette which make it doubly pleasing. In stage-craft and costum- ing it leaves little to be described. It has a rather stately chorus that is able to sing and is heard to never- failing advantage. The story of “Katinka” is built up- on the old Russian proverb that “When December marries May, the love birds fly away.” “Katinka,” the heroine is forced to give her hand in marriage to the statesman “Borgis,” already married. Intrigue in her fam- ily has halted her romance with Iva! a young officer in the Russian army. She believes him faithless and only after her marriage to Boris and the ceremony of the whip, symbalic of her abject slavery to her lord and master do the lovers learn that they have been tricked. Ivan and his friend, Mr. Hopper, a “regular Amer- ican boy,” abduct “Katinka” and spir- it her away to Stamboul, where the first Mrs. Boris is located in. the har- em of Abdul Pasha. Hopper’s efforts on behalf of Ivan and his sweetheart estrange him from his wife. The cli- max to all this is staged in Vienna, when Boris’ first wife denounces him, the Hoppers are reunited and the dis- comfiture of Boris js complete. _ “Rackety Coo,” and “Katinka” lead hits. “Stamboul” is ” “I Want All to LADIES SECRET T0 ~DURKN GRAY HAR Bring Back Its Color and Lustre With Grandma’s Sage Tea Recipe.
