EXCITING BALLOON TRIP.
Five Passengers Twice In Danger after
Engine of DirisibIe stops.

Pasadena, Cal, Nov. A.-Five pas
ssngers carried by Aviator Roy Knaben-
shue on a dirgihla balloon trip of 20
miles 20 I>os Angeles and return, were
given a thrill Just before landing here
to-day At height of 1,4O0 feet above
the landing place the engine suddenly
stopped whom a water pipe burst. AS the
craft started TO rise. Knabenshue climbed
along the dirigble's frail framework TO
the bow, where his weight pointed the
balloon toward earth again. Then more
danger appeared in the shape of an
orange grove toward which the dirlgible
was heading. The passengers began to
throw ballast bags overheard, and the
balloon cleared the trees.
IN II moment spectators seized an
anchor rope and towed the dirgible to
Its 'd!'ome." The l0-mile journey to Los
: Angeles WAS made In 20 minutes.

lost by evaporation and leakage. A

TABLE
TO DO HONOR TO
ST. VALENTINE

~ OMEHOW or other. Cupid never
seems half so busy as at ST
~ Valentines day. Then the little
god OF love holds full sway. How
Cupid came TO DE 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
st. Valentine lived in the third CEN
fury. and ever since that period his
birthday. the fourteenth OF February.
has been named in his honor.
Formerly it was the custom on St
Valentines eve to drop an equal num-
Der of names of young men and wom-
en- in box. The maiden whose name
was drawn was presumed to be the
young mans valentine. This was con-
sidered an omen predicting the happy
termination of love affair.
The old-fashioned valentines were
usually homemade" with the verses
written especially for the person they
were intended for and conveyed many
real afectionate sentiments. Though
the present valentines are factory
made. and many thousands can be
bought Of similar kind, surely the
maiden of today welcomes the verses
printed on lace paper and decorated
with hearts, or forget-me-nots, with
much the same enthusiasm as did the
girl Of long ago, for a valentine is
message fragrant with love. or
friendship. and causes many a heart
throb
The day which has an enhancing
charm. especially for young people and
children. is a favorite occasion on
which to entertain friends. A Valen-
tines party could be called hearty
party" because hearts play such
prominent part In the decorations and
games.
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
Tor a valentine luncheon, or dinner.
which will call forth expressions of
surprise and admiration.
Send your invitations on heart
shaped cards. or postal card valen-
tines. If 1t is to be a chiidren's par
", buy supply Of candy notices aid
hide them In different places about
the room. then allow 20 minutes for n
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.
STEERS is to have a 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 nartnars
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 IiveIv
song. When the player stops sudden.
