Joseph Bunwick Of Delaware City
held a COW sale on Saturday at the
farm of James T. Lank, near town.
He disposed of twenty-five COWS at
the sale at a very low figure. This
will also help the farmers to in
crease their output of milk to the
cooling station. It is understood that
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company
is making complaint again that they
are not receiving enough milk thru
the cooling station to make it pay
ing proposition for them. Several
weeks ago when the output of the
cooling station was only about ten
cans a day they said they must have
at least thirty cans because they
couldn't afford to handle the car
with such little milk. The farmers
and the owners of the cooling sta
tiOn got busy and now they have the
output UP to about thirty-five to
thirty-eight cans. If the situation can
be taken care of until this autumn |
when the price of milk will likely be |
better and the farmers will have
grown a good supply of hay for their
COWS, there is no doubt but what the
cooling station will then be putting
1ut at least one hundred cans a day.

"GRAC1oUs goodness" said Cupid
looking at the calendar, "here
am sitting around and dawdling hour.
away when it's my busiest time in the
whole year." James," he cried
bring me that culver of arrows and
the polish. I've got to get ready for
st. Valentines dayr'
And while Cupid is busy getting
ready for his annual archery program
there are plenty Of others who are pre-
pairing to receive him, terrifying them
selves against his invasion or prepar-
ing a fitting welcome, as the case
may be.
Naturally, nobody wants to take a
chance with this skillful archer without
plenty of others present to help defect
| his flying arrows, so there will be
parties, parties, and then more parties.
First, Valentine party calls for a
clever form of invitation. A verse
original If possible-could set forth
the wish Of the hostess In an appropri-
ate Jingle, running something like this
beg to indite that a gay little sprite.
VIII stop at my home on st. Valen-
tiuc night.
Can you meet him at eight, on this
I'm expecting you over so please don't
be late.
Another invitation might read:
On Saint Valentines Day
VIII you come to my party?
I'll see that you have
welcome right hearty.
The verse can be written on dainty
Valentine postcards, or correspondence
cards ornamented with Cupids and ar
rows or with red heart seals.
Another verse may invite the guest
In this wise:
The sign-of-the-Heart Is pleased to
invite
Your presence at eight on Saint Valen-
tines Night;
Hearts that are brave and loving and
tf'de
VIII be ready and waiting to welcome |
you.
The password is Love. which alone has |
the power
To gain you admittance to Cupid's |
bower.
Note paper decorated with Valentine
seals could be used for this form of in.
For decoration to conform
to the first line of the verse, an i'm
mense red heart, hung against the
glass Of the front door would be ap-
Old-fashioned valentines, with lace
paper and sentimental verses, make ap-
invitations. So do the old
comics.
The valentine party rarely takes the
form of a masquerade, but the hostess
usually plans caps and favors for the
guests, to give a festive air to the
event.
Almost any crude cap Of crepe paper
IAN be made highly decorative by add
ng long tassels or fringe at either side.
Heavy necklaces Of cardboard with
/ ruffie Of red crepe paper hung about
he neck on a ribbon are effective and
EASILY made.
The jazz bracelet Is a novelty con-
listing Of ribbon, to be worn about
he wrist, with long red and white
.repe paper streamers.

GOOD Morrow To You,
My Valentine!"

MANY curious old charms are SALE
Ava to be potent on st. Valentine
eve-all, like most charms ever invent
ed, connected with the procuring Of
husbands. Even before surplus woman
dawned on the scene, this seems tC
have been subject Of much anxiety
Five bay leaves, pinned respectively
to the four corners and the center OF
the pillow, are said to bring certain
dreams Of the future partner, II the
sleeper has gone to bed without eating
or speaking.
Another infallible spell was to write
the names of admirers on separate
pieces Of paper, enclose them In clay
balls and throw them into water. The
one which came to the surface first
contained the name Of the fated
spouse.
1t is a sign Of great good luck II the
swain you favor should be the first
man seen on February IA. The mod
ern girl who does not pin her faith
entirely to signs and omens can al
ways practice the ruse Of a shrewd
maiden of long ago. who, knowing
where her heart had gone, clay a-bed
and shut my eyes all the morning till
he came, for I would not have seen
another man before him for all the
world"
She was far-seeing and lucky. But
If she had set eyes first on the wrong
man, she would have welded him, so
a poet tells u.s.
Last Valentine. the day when birds of
kind
Their paramours with mutual chirpinss
Aheld I went. amid the morning dew.
To milk my kline (for so should house
wives do).
Thee first I spied. and the first swain
we see,
In spite of fortune. shall our true love
be-"
Some of us wish that a quaint old
custom practiced in the time of Pepys
was still prevalent-the rule that a
man must give a present to the first
woman he saw on February IA. Pepys,
gay old rascal that he was, much be-
walled himself that his own tribute
had to be offered to his wife-a pro-
ceeding he considered very dull, when
there were plenty Of pretty young
girls at the light-hearted court of
Charles II.
Old people still remember the time
when valentines were as popular as
Christmas cards, and the postman
groaned under his load on the morning
of the 18th. This Is still the case In
the United States, but tie Idea Of |
courtship is no longer much connected |
with these bright cards.
Nowadays Shakespeare's greeting:-
GOOD morrow, tits st. Valentines day.
All the morning betime.
And I maid at your window,
To be your valentine"
simply reminds us Of the passing Of a
delightful old custom. ;21f
Christianity brought the custom of
placing each feast day under the
patronage Of saint, and 30 st. VAL
entine, who never married himself, be-
came the patron saint Of lovers-Tha
Lady's Companion.
