YOUNG APRIL AND HIS TRICKY WAYS

Antiquity Had It's Merry Practices in Consonance w
the Month That Begins Today-Some
Famous Jokes

OF ALL Mother Natures children
" young April is the most whimsical,
much more a tricksy lad than a maiden,
half smiles half tears. For do we not all
join the company of merry fools on the
first day of April. and on all the days
that April gives us does he not fool us
with promise of sunshine and then sud
denly pour a shower OF water upon us,
with a mocking cry Of April Fool?'
The custom of making bigger fool OF
oneself than usual on the first day OF April
seems TO be as old as the race of man
kind. All the world loves to be fooled,
and wise is the fool who laughs well
whether the joke be on him or another
weArer of the motley. In the ancient land
OF India the Hull festival held on March
81 corresponds TO our April Fool day.
The Roman Saturnalia on February II

NTITH two performances of Serge de
w Diaghileff's ballet, the international
Flower Show and the final meeting OF
Mrs. Scott's Supper Club in the ball
room of the Bellevue-Stratford this eve
ming one would hardly think that Lent
is not only with us but half way over.
Still 1t Is the eve of Mi.Careme, and in
foreign countries MiCareme is as gay
as carnival times, so why not here?
Mrs. Scott has provided especial at
fractions tonight for the final meeting
of the club series. Two dancers from
New York will give exhibitions of the
newest steps, and pretty much every
one who is not away in the South will
be there, many going up to the ballet
first Then, too, the Flower Show
will be at its height, for tomorrow will
be the last day you know, and, of
course, every one wants to see one of
the most beautiful spectacles ever ex-
hiblted in this city.
The precocious chick is a source of
constant Joy to her family and friends
so long as she does not become "too
fresh" I heard a delicious bit lately
about the small daughter of a very
popular matron, whose uncle and aunt
moved into the old family home, last
year. The Small Person was very, very
interested, and when butler No. 2 APP
peared on the scene, and one parlor
maid was not sufficient, and more and
more maids and men arrived, she was
quite dumbstruck, but canny enough
not to show II. Later, however, she
told 1t all to her grandmother, who is
one of the best loved older women in
the suburb from which the Small Per-
son comes. Well she told her all about
it, and then she stopped and looked at
Grandma did not seem terribly inn
pressed, and yet she only kept three or
four maids. Finally, however, the
Small Person frightened up and said,
But how could 1 expect you to under
stand. you who buy at -- manning
a well-known cash grocer).
Suffice 1t to say that Grandma was
highly amused and repeated the story
with great gusto.
From all accounts the Mi.Careme en-
tertainment to be given Monday after
noon and evening at Horticultural Hall
will be great success, and it looks as
IL the little colored children at st. Nicho-
las Day Nursery will be made very
happy by the golden eagles that are be-
ing raised for their special benefit by
. sY,gN
tuition. There will be movies, dancing
and bridge in the afternoon, and among
those who will have bridge tables are
Mrs. Charles II. Howell president of |
the nursery Mrs. Walter S. Massey, |
Mrs. Isaac H. Clothier. Jr. Mrs. Francis |
