OUR JUVENILE MERRYdAKERs MAY HAVE JOLLY
GOOD FLOWER FROLIC AT MAYTME PARTY

These beautiful spring days are
fine times for out-of-doors parties
for children; no birthday party
should be celebrated within hot.
stuffy rooms when an open porch
or even the yard can be used.
And please remember that ju-
venile merrymakers can have
May parties all during the month
Just as we'll as on May day.
Should the headquarters of the
jollification be the porch, the roof
should be decorated with garlands
of tissue paper flowers, as these
will not wither in the sun. Pink
or yellow paper lanterns should
be added, and below, the corners
may be banked with wild flowers
and ferns arranged in buckets
and pans.
The chairs may be twined with
the artificial garlands, and there
should be a little bouquet OF
flowers. and afterward the bios
SONS which are represented in the
different costumes can Be guessed
for prize.
The program can be made up
of the following games, using all
or some:
The names of different flowers
are written on slips of paper,
which are then folded and collect
ed in basket. Little paper tab
lets are passed around with PEN
ellis, and each child draws a slip.
He or she, after the signal is CIV
en-, must draw picture of the
flower named on the slip, the sub
jects of all the drawings to be
afterward guessed by the children,
with a prize for the best guess
also, there might be prize for
the best drawing.
Again, secure a dozen picture
postals of the series having differ
ent kinds of flowers on them. Gin
these cards into little pieces of ir-
regular shape-after the manner
of a jigsaw puzzle--jumble the
pieces, heap them in the center
of table, and let each child pick
out the right pieces to make up a
flower; the one finishing first wins
the prize.
All kinds of pretty things are
available as prizes for a flower
frolic. They come at prices suit
ing every purse. For example,
there are inexpensive but very
pretty baskets which can be trim
med with ribbon and tissue paper
and filled with flowers. Dainty
things for children of all kinds
may be distributed.
Lunches should be light, and II
possible should be served out
doors.

PEGGY's AUTOMOBILE

Peggy lives in a fiat on the
fourth floor of a large apartment
house. The other day she was
standing on chair in the kitchen,
tying her dolls hammock to the
latch of the dumb waiter door.
She gave an extra hard pull and
the door flew open. The waiter
was resting there. Peggy decid-
ed 1t should be her automobile,
so she and her dolls took posses

Soon. "a door below her opened,

Peggy surely would. She even
consented to take two.
Then the grocer boy pulled her
down and sent her up again with
his load. After that she had to
wait an awfully long time, and
1t wasn't very pleasant. Then the
janitor brought her down. She
asked him IL he would push their
button to- go home. When her
mamma saw her sitting there she
was very much astonished, you

1t Is well to have tablecloths

To prevent mattress or sanitary

Sew large coat or trousers hooks
on under side of pad ina row
