WHY NOT GIVE A

VALENTINE PARTY?

Decorative Schemes and Entertaining Features Galore Are at the Disposal of the Valentine Day Hostess.

"Tomorrow is St. Valentine's day, All in the morning bedtime, And I a maid at your window To be your valentine " Ophelia sings this little verse as she realizes, in her madness, that this is the day set apart for true lovers. Many generations of lovers have made this day, under the patronage of the good Saint Valentine, a holiday surrounded with an atmosphere distinctly alluring. Even in this prosaic age we catch a whiff of the sweet lavender and rose leaves which still hover about the box of mementoes stored away in the oaken chests of our great-grandmothers. The lace-paper and flower-decorat-ed valentines were opened with trembling fingers and fluttering hearts, while a blush suffused the countenance as the love messages were read. The paper is brown with age, but this only ripens the romance which lingers about these faded bits of lace, ribbon and red. red hearts. Modern maidens should strive to preserve the sentiment of St. Valentines day by celebrating it in a fitting manner. A valentine party offers a wide scope for the hostess to utilize her originality. These few suggestions may help those who lack time to plan an evening's entertainment. Since hearts are the principal feature of Valentine's day, they must be used with lavish extravagance in the decorations. From red cardboard or heavy paper cut quantities of hearts of different sizes. This can be more easily accomplished if the paper is folded as many times as possible. String of Hearts. Strings of these hearts can be used to decorate the windows, doorways and chandeliers and others should be festooned about the edge of the table. If you serve a buffet suj oer, an attractive centerpiece may he arranged In this manner: Procure a small hpruce tree and pluce it firmly in a pot. From red paper out throe hearts of sufficient size to cover the pot, and fasten thorn to the pot with rrwdlajav !U1 rltl)n two or three inches wide may bo used to hold the hearts in place and the ends tied in a pretty b w. Fmm rod paper cut a lare heart, to correspond with those used on the pot. which will serve for a doily on which the tree is placed. On narrow, red ribbon string plenty of hearts and hang, these from the branches of the tree. All the lamp and eandle shades should he decorated with hearts huir-r from ribbon?, and with a little ingenuity these can be arranged to produce really artistic eiiYets. Plain shite candle shades are purchasable at the simps where crepe paper is sold, and these, if decorated with hearts tinted with water rol.tr paints, are extremely attractive. A fringe of tiniest red hearts hunt: from the lowest edge of the shades adds an unusual touch. An attractive method of inviting jour guests is to cut two white hearts from paper and thread them on red rlbnieres of artith-ial Mowers which come In so many attractive forms. Mount these n hearts out from red papr. on which the name of the guest is the written. For the men have heart-shaped keyring o? silver, which are not expensive- if the plain designs are chosen. Various Amusement-.. TIeart-shaped bonbon dishes and receptacles for salted nuts may be had pt the confectioner's who also has a s apply of hart-shaped candies for .St. Valentine's day. An amusement which is always a success at .1 party of thi variety is to provide the guests with tissue or crepe paper, scrap pictures, narrow ribbon and mucilage, requesting them to make valentine. Allow twenty minutes or a half hour for this purpose, and award a suitable prize to the makf: of the most artistic valentine. 'harle. Lamb welcomes this day of t:niver.il love in nis delicately hiimorou wav. saying: "Hill to thy returning festival, old i'hop Valentine. Great immortal ko-

between! Who and what manner of person art thou? "Art thou but a name typifying the restless principle which Impels poor humans to eek perfection In union? Or wert thou indeed a, mortal prelate with thy tippet and thy apron on, and decent lawn sleeves? "Mysterious personage!" Like unto thee, assuredly there as no other mitred father in the calendar. Thou comest attended with thousands ftnd tens of thousands of little loves, and the air is 'brushed with the kiss of nestling wings'. "This is the day on which those charming little missives called valentines cross and intercross each other at every turning." Do not allow the day to pass unnoticed.
