Shapleigh, of Columbia University) February brings us three holidays, on each of which one wants to serve something and to provide table decorations appropriate to the occasion. St. Valentine's day offefs many possibilities. Any heart-shaped cake or confection is suitable. Cherries and hatchets are associated with the name of George Washington . , For the anniversary of the honored I Lincoln the humble log cabin or something representative of our flag I are emblematic. Cutters made to resemble hearts, hatchets, rabbits and chickens are helpful and if you cannot find them in some store, any tinsmith will make them upon being furnished with a pattern. Cookies are easy to make and attractive when garnished and frosted. For instance, a heart-shaped cookie may lie frosted pink or red, or , frosted white and garnished with a heart made from red candies. • Cookie dough cut with a hatehetshaped cutter might have a cherry baked on it. And in garnishing a cookie, remember that a brushing with delicate white of egg should precede baking. For those who live in or near cities there are in all the candy shops many attractive decorations in keeping with the season. Small boxes come in heart, hatchet and flag shapes, adding much to the appearance of the table and serving as souvenirs. The children always enjoy valenf tine parties and the refreshments are • not least important among the plans for them. n the table's center have a big, heart-shaped Jack Horner pie, done all in pick and blue streamers connecting with presents to be pulled from the pie's interior. The blue ribbons will be for the boys; the pink ones for the girls. The place cards should be valentines—the old-fashioned, laeey sort. ■ —• PRODUCERS AND DEALERS William Klepper Appointed On Committee By Cream And Poultry Dealers B Fort Wayne, Jan. 29. —Arrange- ’• ments for the co-operative eream and r poultry marketing association of the i Farm Bureau to work in conjunction j with th® established cream and poulB try farms of this section of Indiana ere started Friday afternoon at a mooting held in the courthouse.
