Soap bubble fun has no particular
season. The beautiful fairy globes
that float about so airily, changing from
gold to purple and from primrose to
crimson. are Just as entertaining in
the days Of Jack Frost as they are in
summer time, or vice versa They are
never-ending delight, and the grown
up man or woman must indeed be old
and emblttered with the world not 70
enjoy bubble party" There is a
deal in knowing Just how to make the
suds weak suds will create bubbles
that grow to only moderate size, and
then explode in a spray Of soapy water
Suds that is thick will be even worse.
since large drop of the strong solu-
tion will hang from the bubble. the
weight Of which will cause the won
derful little sphere to crash and dis
appear. The best suds is made by
melting a small piece Of soap. strain
ing the mixture and adding warm
water enough to dilute to the proper
consistency. Suds that stands for a
day or two is usually better than that
freshly made Foamy soap water is
not successful Any kind of a tube
will make bubbles A common clay
pipe-is convenient. but tin tube that
fs larger at the bubble end will make
bigger bubbles. You have probably no
ticed that when bubbles fall upon soft
rugs or fuzzy, woolly blanket, they
bounce lightly and do not break at
once. A bubble-bat can be made by
twisting wire the shape Of tennes
Jacket and weaving worsted across
This is great fun The bubble is dis
lodged from the pipe or tube by a quick
upward movement AS it floats in the
air bat catches 1t. tossing II up again
and again. 1t can also be made to
stand on the edge or handle Of the
bat Did you ever see a bubble walk
a tight rope? It can be made to do
this trick like a trained elephant. A
| piece of worsted is held in a slanting
position A bubble is blown, whisk-
| ing away from the pipe and sent float
ing down the tight rope 1t will dance
and bounce waiting friskily from the
| upper end of the worsted down to the
lower end, where it will make a nice
flying leap to the floor Another in
teresting way of entertaining with
soap bubbles is to cut out a circular
disk Of common writing paper about
the size Of half dollar. Make two
pinholes in it and hang it up by a
thread By keeping the disk moist,
the bubbles will take holdr readily,
and may be suspended in mid d-air.
After little practice you can hitch
bubbles to each. other. the first one
