There is a tendency to put upon the
reading Of fairy tales the onus for
childish fancifying. 1t Is true that
fairy tales are q stimulus TO the imagi-
nation, and q wholesome one, but in
the intensely imaginative stage from
three to six years children would tend
TO embroider fact with fancy quite
without extra stimulus. They cannot
see things as we do.
One extremely conscientious mother
wrote me with pardonable pride that
she had not allowed her children to
hear or read fairy tales. Now. when
story was told them, they demanded
TO know If II were really true" She
had given them liberal doses of history
and biography, but had entirely es-
chewed the Savory condiments OF fairy
tales

Jeweled Hairpins and Black Satin
Dancing Slippers Are Now Popular

Jeweled hairpins are becoming more
and more popular here and abroad. and
word has come from France that those
set with turquoises are especially FASH
ionable. This greenish blue stone looks
well against dark hair as well as light.
Black satin evening slippers are en-
joying revival and for the past few
weeks many women have chosen them
for dancing in preference to those Of
gold, silver or light tints. The fact that
they make the feet seem smaller may
have something to do with this. The
new fashion is to wear these black
satin slippers with the sheerest black
stockings and brilliantly jeweled heels.
limitations of all the brilliant stones are
used for this purpose and are said to
look as II they had been scattered on
the heels like confetti.
Miss Louise Clews, granddaughter Of
Mrs. Henry M. Clews, is one of the
fashionable young women who are fol-
lowing the fashion for more pronounced
colors this Spring. Very striking is her
new sports costume with pleated skirt
made OF cerise crepe. gold threaded
beige pull-over and a cerise leather coat
with scarf of cerise leather lined with
pink crepe de chine.

BUFFET STYLE NOW IN VOGUE

The fashion for the informal buffet
type of refreshments for afternoon and
evening parties seems to be on the in
crease. There is much to recommend
this form of service in warm weather.
For the afternoon bridge party the din
ing room may be made cool and shady
or the refreshments may be served from
a screened-in veranda.
There should be an attractive flower
arrangement in the center of the table,
with silver, sandwich plates, salted nuts,
bonbons, etc., as one would have 1t for
an afternoon tea.
Really all that one needs at the after
noon party at this time of year is an ice
or frappee, with hot and cold drinks.
sandwiches and little cakes. If ice is
served, this may be placed on the plates
in the pantry and then brought into the
dining room by a maid or the hostess.
or some one whom she has asked to
help her. The plates may be placed on
buffet or the table, where guests may
help themselves.
A very nice plan is to serve frappee
in large punchbowl The bowl should
first be iced so that the frappee will not
melt too quickly. One of the guests is
then asked to sit at one end of the table,
where she serves the frappee into at
tractive glass dishes placed on plates,
with lace dolly between plate and glass
If you like. Guests either help them
selves or the hostess sees that they are
served. At the other end of the table
another honored guest may dispense hot
tea or coffee, cold punch, or both
AT most successful informal evening
party the other day supper was served
