H0LlDAYlNG in
THE WINTER
AN IMMENSE AMOUNT OF MONEY
SPENT BY WESTERN cANADi-
ANS IN WINTER SEASON.

"An unusually large number Of
Western Canada people are leaving
or preparing to leave to spend the
Winter in California"
The above item of news was clip
ped from a Western Canada paper
early in December. In the same paper
were items of news conveying the in
telligence that hundreds of Western
Canadians were also taking a trip
abroad, spending the Christmas sea-
son "at home," as they yet term the
old land. The Scandinavian element
participated largely in the holiday
business Of the railroads and the
steamships, but they all had return
tickets. Early in December the east
bound trains and boats were loaded,
and an estimate furnished by the rail-
road people gave upwards of twelve
thousand as the number who would
make the Christmas holiday visit
abroad. This does not mean that these
people are leaving to avoid the cold
ness Of the winter, nor for any eli
matte conditions whatever. They
have come out to Canada and have
done 30 we'll that they can afford the
hundred and fifty or two hundred dol
lars or moro that 1t takes to carry
them across and back. When they
came to Canada they did not have
that much money all told, but now
they are wealthy and on their return
will bring some Of their friends with
them.
Then there are those, too, who on
their wheat farms have made suffi-
cient money that they can afford to
take holiday, and what better winter
holidaying ground could they have
than California? How many in other
farming districts of the continent
could afford the money and the time
that these people can?-Advertise-

SETTING TABLE
TO DO HONOR TO
ST. VALENTINE

~ OMEHOW or other, Cupid never
seems half 30 busy as at st.
AZ Valentines day Then the little
god Of love holds full sway. How
Cupid came to be connected with the
idea of st. Valentines day is rather
vague. There has been a current be-
lief for ages that on the fourteenth of
February the birds choose their mates;
possibly that is the origin of the
idea.
All the world loves a lover" So
perhaps that is the reason valentine
affairs are so popular. With little
expense one can decorate a table
for valentine luncheon, or dinner,
which will call forth expressions of
surprise and admiration.
Send your invitations on heart
shaped cards. Oh postal card valen-
tines. II it is to be a children's par
ty, buy supply of candy notices aid
hide them in different places about
the room. then allow 20 minutes for a
merry hunt. Award a prize, some
thing that Is in keeping with the
event, to the one who collects the
greatest number.
Another way to entertain the young
sters is to have large heart OF pa
per with small red heart in the
center. Blindfold each child in turn
and see who can pin a paper arrow
nearest the heart.
A unique way to choose partners
for the supper is made By having an
immense heart of cardboard covered
in red crepe paper The girls take
turns in standing in front of the
heart, while the boys march in front
of them to the music of some lively
song. When the player stops sudden
ly the girl who is framed in the heart
becomes the partner of the youth in
front of her.
Red and white have always been the
acceptable colors for decorating a val
entine table, but latterly there has
been a strong indication towards pink.
Cupids, hearts, bows and arrows. are
the most appropriate decorations for
| this holiday. "Ail the world loves a
| lover" SO the more hearts and Cupids
| that adorn the table. the prettier the
effect will me. :.
| The table illustrated had two ruff
| hes of crepe paper gathered around
the edge Of the table as soft back
ground for the drapery of hearts cut
out OF red crepe paper in graduating
sizes; these hearts were strung on
red baby ribbon. The. candle shades
were of wnico -.od red hearts pasted
on. The nut boxes were in the form
of hearts decorated with small card
board Cupids The place cards are
four inch hearts set in the corner of
a gilded card The favors are three
inch hearts of white with a small
red heart in the center. These
hearts are fastened to a gilded
stock and finished with bow of red
ribbon or crepe paper.
The centerpiece is suspended from
the chandelier and is made of three
fourteen inch hearts tied together with

red baby ribbon. This forms sort
of Jack Horner bag, which can be
used to hold valentines or souven-
irs. Strings of smaller hearts hang
from the center. The large hearts
have an arrow pierced through them.
For the menu carry out the heart
idea" The sandwiches can be cut
heart shaped with a cookie cutter.
The salad can be decorated with
hearts cut out of picked beets. The
ice cream can be served heart shaped
and decorated with candy hearts. A
pretty cake has candy notices placed
all over the surface of the cake be-
fore the icing is hard. Each one has
to read their motto aloud. Two rings
are baked in the cake. The parties re-
ceiving the rings are supposed to be
the next married.
Decorations we'll worth the effort,
and different from any other table,
had for it's main decoration char
lot placed in the center of the table.
This chariot is easily made Of card
board and covered with crepe paper,
or a little toy wagon can be used.
either gilded or covered with fringed
paper. The chariot is trimmed either
with small roses or carnations. A
small doll is dressed as Cupid with
sash and wings made of crepe paper
of tulle, filtered with gold. The doll
stands in the center of the chariot
holding ribbons which are long enough
to reach to each plate, a place card
decorated with small cardboard Gu
pids holding a rose are attached to
each ribbon. A small strip of paste
board Is pasted to the back of the
card to form an easel 80 the cards
stand up.
The favors are attractive nosegays
of artificial roses, with tiny hearts
hung among them. The rose idea can
be carried out further by hanging gar
lands of artificial roses around the
table.
On the place cards write a COM
pliment for each person commencing
each word with the letter of their
name, and let them find their places
in that way
These ideas may help you to orig.
