A very gay and simple little St. Pat- rick's day party can be given. for children from five years up.” Green must, of course, be the pre- dominant color, and the' shamrock shape can be used in many ways. A long table should be covered with a smooth woolen blanket, and an arch of stiff paper with a_green bow at its top placed across the center. Each child should be provided with a small clay pipe and a folded paper fan, tied with green bows. The children should be divided into two sides, and part- ners, by drawing numbers. At each end of the table there should be a shallow bow] of soap suds into which a tablespoontul of glycerin has been stirred. Then the first two Couples at each cnd of the table play. The| girls blow a bubble which the boys must try to fan through *.a arch. Then boys blow the bur .cs and the girls try to fan them. A time allowance is made for each quartet, and those wWhose side gets most bub- bles through the arch are winners. The game can be made progressive, with small tables and different re. quirements. such as to fan the bub- bles over the arch instead of under, or for each child to blow and fan his own bubbles, or to raise the number of bubbles fo be got through in a given time. A good many possibi ties will occur to the hostess. (Copyright, 1921.)
