Wv nth Ash Wednesday little
A{Af more than two weeks away.
it would seem as tho each of
the intervening days would be crowded
with gaities but they are not. Not
bit of it. There is an occasional card
party, stray tea, several luncheons and
as many weddings but not enough to
make anything Of brilliant close to a
season that has been notably dull.
Even the approach Of Valentine day
and Washington's birthday, holidays
which are usually made considerable of
as they furnish in themselves sugges-
tions for entertaining and decoration,
will pass almost unnoticed, socially.
Apropo Of valentines one Of the kin
dergartners told an amusing story yes
terday. She had her small flock begin
to make their valentines Friday, that is
they cut OUT from paper a quantity Of
the red hearts. And after they were
finished and the childish hearts were
swelling with the pride Of work well
done she asked the youngsters what the
red hearts stood for. There was an ON
inous silence and then one small urchin,
the son of wellEhown railroad man,
shouted in loud and jubilant tones;
"Danger!"
