" young people of the British isles
follow very ancient custom Of cele-
brating the Valentine festival. Among
these customs is the ono of drawing
for valentines. The guests write their
own valentines and then sign their
names or assumed ones: the paper is
then folded. The girls place theirs in one
bowl and the boys theirs in another
bowl. Bowls are then exchanged and
the pairing off or the arranging of part
ners for the evening is then finished.
The rest of the evening is spent in
dancing and singing. which is followed
at midnight by supper.
Then the lads and laSsies weud their
homeward way. very tired. but anxious
for another holiday.
