One need not have an elaborate tea
service to give this attention; many
who wait for those things never enjoy
doing nice things for friends Anyone
may have pretty pot or pitcher and
few simple, pretty cups and saueers.
1t is not the display of silver and plate
that expresses hospitality, but the
spirit behind the service.
When one has a pretty tea ball the
making of tea is a pretty sight to
look at, and a pretty service adds to
the pleasure of ones guests. Tea may
be tied in small pieces of muslin
enough for pot of tea. these small
bags kept in a tight can or jar for
months and will always be ready for
the quick cup of tea with no grounds
for complaint" For some ii is a
pretty little entertainment If one is
at all imaginative to leave the grounds
in the pot so that each may have a
few in the cup and have the fortune
told from the grounds.
The custom of having the tea tabl
in the room Away set, ready for serv-
ice, is not desirable. for one likes
to feel that the service is fresh and
free from all dust and germs. The
tea cart is a great convenience. for all
the service may be brought in at
once
Small cakes, crackers and cookies
are served with a cup of tea. The
English custom of serving sandwiches
and marmalade is observed by some.

Colors that are modish include all
tones of orange, reds that tone into
yellows. reds that become almost pink,
and reds that deftly mingled on the

portunities for the idea are in
connection with landing piers
on shores where ordinarily or
frequently big waves make Il
unsafe for vessels to land.
The apparatus required is sim
pie enough. On shore is q
machine for pumping air, a
reservoir of compressed air. and
pipes leading from the reservoir
TO the sea bottom in front of the
pier. When vessel wishes to
approach the pier. and the sea is
running high. the apparatus is
started and air is pumped out
through the pipes, bubbling I'D
through holes in the ends of pipe
lines. These air bubbles seem
to have the ability to break up
the mass of water sweeping in
with each roller, and so make it
safe for the ship to approach the
pier. The theory of the air
bubbles is that, though water
moving in a solid mass carries
mighty force, spray carries little
force; and the air bubbles create
a condition midway between
said water and spray.
Other applications of the air
bubble system planned are for

Call for such Action.

DALLAS, Texas, March 1S-For
the first time in the history Of the
institution there will be no races
at the State Fair this year. De-
creasing public interest in turf
sports and consequent increasing
financial losses on the part OF the
fair in the racing department are
given as the reason for discontinue
ing the races.
At called meeting of the board
of directors at the Chamber of Com
merce yesterday afternoon the mat
ter was discussed and the vote 70
eliminate the races this year was
unanimous.
The State Fair, which has been
running thirty years, has never at
tempted to get along without races.
During those years millions OF peo-
pie have bought tickets to the
grand stand, and all the famous
horses, jockeys, drivers and book
les" have made acquaintance with
Dallas as the great racing center of
the Southwest. Horse owners on all
the racing circuits have so arranged
their dates as to make the Dallas
Fair, for the first and last the State
