We each [urrled out our own decorative . scheme, the most beautiful (in our 1eyes) being those ornamented with | transfer pictures, or, to be accurate, $ docalcomania work. And a small Preparations for Easter. Out where the willows are bending low, Out where the mists drift to and fro, All in the Easter morning. Little brown birds in quiet nest, Twittering low 'neath mother's breast, Say, “Spring Is coming; let us sing our best,” Early on Easter morning. Just as [ was pondering in my mind, as my good colored auntie would say, how I would amuse the children in planning for Easter, Polly, my unfail- ing one, dropped in and said: “Let's bave an old-fashioned Easter like we did when we were young.” “But, Polly,” T wailcd, “there was no egg trust then, eggs weren't 50 cents & dozen, and we had real hens and a real barn and we had mother’s piece bag and everything that children haven't now.” After this wail from my usually cheertul self, Polly gave me this out- line, which I pass on: Ask just the neighborhood children, say six or eight, and save enough perfectly fresh eggs to allow two for each guest. Set the time on the Satarday before East- er, from three to five, and request each child, boy as well as girl, to bring an apron. Hide the eggs in nests hidden care- fully behind the furniture, and warn | the little hunters to be most cautious ! in handling the eggs, for they are to | | take them home for their Easter | | breakfast. It will be well to provide | small handled baskets for each one. | for the boys and white for the girls. They will make acceptable favors. After the eggs are found tie on the squares of bright figured calico may be sewed tightly around some of the ilstizH ! ii* i E : § : ! i — e o e Tis a bow of yellow ribbon on those ' child just informed me that they have Just such pictures now, so Polly is go /ing to get some for this party. They !are great fun. Then we are going to make the cutest place cards by gluing o balf of an egg shell on a yellow- shaped card and mark a happy little | face upon it with pen and ink, the | child's name to be written underneath. These ,egg shell cards are fine for concealing gifts to be presented on | Easter morning, and are large enough ! to cover a gold plece, a ring or even bright new pennies for the children. Ot course the shells have to be brok- en, but they are easy to make, and no one minds a bit of trouble at this sea- £on. We are going to serve brown bread sandwiches with cocoa, a wee yellow chick perched on each cup. That is all, just euough to make it seem like a party. ! Easter Monday Party. | The Easter dawn is approaching, | and with it comes requests for par i ties, especially affairs for children, { who simply adore the “bunny” season. I must tell you how a mother of three is to entertain at “an all day” Easter Monday party, the guests being seven of the neighborhood children. The in- vitations are written on egg-shaped cards sealed with a violet paster, or the dearest Easter chick just coming | out of the ehell may be found among { the seals or pasters, as the children call them. The ages of the guests range from five to eight years. A third floor | chamber is known as the children’s room, and it is to be prettily decorat- ed with flowers and branches.of bud- ding fruit trees which have been placed in water for several days. | { There should be a mass of blossoms on.them by Easter. Ten little hoops have been prepared thus for one ot the games, and each one is to dbe wound with a colored tape. The boy | who can roll his hoop twice around the room without letting it turn over will be awarded a bag of marbles, and the little girl who accomplishes the | a jewel cames, o to hide the joia.
