CoIorinu Easter Euus,

There still exist plenty of old-fash-
ioned mothers who spend the day be-
fore Easter coloring eggs and staining
them with printed calico. If the chill
dren are permitted to participate it Is
really gloriously mussy event, in
which they revel and scream with
delight. There is no pastime so charm
ing to the youthful heart as
those particularly delicious kinds
of plays that cause all sorts
of havoc to ones garments and
ones countenance. Ink bottles
and coal pals have ever been the
favored playthings of infancy. These
may possibly be considered miserable
makeshifts for the delights of digging
in mother earth. Anyway the Easter
egg dyeing process has qualifications
not unlike those of the ink we'll and
the coal bin. After the dyeing there
is sure to be a cleaning. But what
matters that? The fun is the main
thing. The results are nothing.
