e Entertaining on Special Days OR the woman who wishes to to take every advantage for .eytertaining, February, 1924, is especially full of opportuni- ties. Coming in between the two legal holidays — namely, Lincoln's birthday on the 12th and Washing- ton's birthhday on the 22d—there is St. Valentine's day on the 14th; then, to add still another important op- portunity, there is the extra day allot- ted to us by leap year, 5o that this odd day, which comes to us only once in four years, February 29, can be chosen for a varlety of celebra- titons. 3 - February is an especially impor- tant month for boys and girls, as it offers so many opportunities for par- ties and celcbrations™of interest to them. Nothing arouses patriotism in Young people as quickly as the study of the lives of great patriots like Lin- coln and Washington. 1f you enter- tain on February 12, Lincoln's birth- day, the voung folks can help to make the place cards, finding suitable quotations from Lincoln's speeches and copying them on plain cards or decorating .the cards with drawings . any yellow flower {n a blue vase, with or without yellow candies. If prizes are awarded for anything at a Wash. ington birthday celebration, a framed ploture of Mount Vernon or the Wash- ington Monument, a Jerusalem cherry tree, quill pen, or a small bust of Washington would be very appropri- ate. A colonlal party may be given for a group of any age. Of course the oaly dressing up should be in colonisl cos- tumes, but these would not be difi- cult to provide. A very good effect may be. obtained by the addition of fichus, caps, fans, and patches for the girls, with’ powdered hair and hoop skirts of flowered chintz. The boys, young or old, must wear knee trou- sers, buckled shoes and powdered wigs. The section of the house wherc the narty is to be Kiven should be gayly docornted with flags and bunting, and if possible, ‘only candles should be ghting purposes. 1t is a very pretty idea to start the evening with the inuet. For. a game. you can select the cherry tree episode. In a shallow, rather large pan filled with sand the hostess should plant a number of twixs of trees, each twig to have a candied cherry tied to it. The game is to blindfold each person, place in his hand a_pasteboard hatchet. give Do You Bemoan Your Matrimonial Fater?

They tell me that they are sick and weary of the monotony of ; that they have few amusements; that their husbands are indifferent to them and néver pay them any compliments or show them any affection; that thelr husbands find fault with them for thelr eyery inistake, but never give them one word of praise for all the good work they do. And these women have brooded over the hardships of their lot unmtil they have grown morbid snd they see the world as one great gob of gloom, with themaelves as the blackest spot [n.-it. ‘Without doubt, marriage is a cruel and a bitter disappointment to many who enter into the holy estate, Especially is it disillusioning to some ‘women because they bulld such impossible hopes upon il, and go into it with such a blind faith that they.are going to find it an earthly paradise. It is incredible, but it is true. that despite her lifelong kn daily life her mother has led and her observation of the domestic strife in the households of her married friends and neighbors, every girl honestly believes that her own matrimonial venture will be a perpetual pienic, and of the BEDTIME STORIES best possible use of them.

He went into the little cupboard and told Nanny Meadow Mouse all about it. > Do you know what I think?” sald Nanny. x ‘What do you think?” asked Danny. “L think," replied Nanny, “that you have beeh asleep and had a bad dream.

He.seemed to be running on the tips of his many feet, and he was running sideways. Yes, sir, he was running sideways. In a few minutes he was right under Danny. Then Danny made a discovery. This giant spider seemed to be covered with a hard shell. Even his legs seemed to be covered with shell. 1 Of course, you have guessed who it was. It wasn't a_spider at all. It was Pop-eye the Crab.

It is interesting on Washington's birthday to go back to colonial times, and the blue and buft of the old Con- tinental Army readily lend themselves to a decorative p'an. Blue is not an attractive color in food, but it is love- ly in china, while there is a large assortment’ of . yellow viands from which o choose a menu. The place cards could be plain cards with quo- tations from Washington's maxims or rules. Other designs for the place cards could be little three-cornered hats made of pluin paper, with the name written on one turned-up side. Little rowboats can be made by folding pa- per.
