TEBRUARY is a month notable
dsats 4 sAs si P5sass sss United S eS' s'sss: sass
terday, and next week comes
Washington's Between these birth
days comes st. Valentines day, which
is tomorrow. So into the shortest
month of the year are three days each
of which lends itself to celebrations
Suggestions for entertaining on the
last two days are given today.
A st. Valentines party is picturesque
If all attending wear old-fashioned
costumes. Living valentines are easily
made by having the party divided into
two groups, one to act, the other to
watch and guess. All persons posing
in the valentines should wear masks,
which may be just large sheets of note
paper with holes cut for eyes and nose.
The mouth may or may not be covered.
Masks are tied about the head with
string. The watching group has tally
cards and writes down names Of persons
acting. The one who guesses most
names correctly Is awarded prize.
1t is best to have several valentines,
IN each Of which but two or three
persons have parts. II guests do not
come in costume the hostess can supply
frocks, hats and accessories for the
tableaux. For refreshments cut sand
witches, cakes and ice cream slices
heart shape. Open ham sandwiches
will be red. Ice cakes with red FROST
ing.
There is nothing which has more
appeal for a Washington's birthday
party than cherry trees-so pictorial,
and gay, and featured in 50 many diff
ferent ways. 1t is very easy to make
sprays of cherry blossoms to use for
decorating the rooms. Little petal
trimmed twigs can be used to secure
partners. To make the large or small
sprays all the equipment needed is
green covered wire. pink petal confetti
and green tissue paper. Dot the ends
Of petals with paste and stick to the
long or short lengths of wire, Cut the

tissue paper into little foliage leaves
and paste occasional green leaves on
to the green wire twigs. To make
sprays, twist shorter lengths of the
decorated wire about one long piece
Of decorated wire.
About the room put a few larger
CHEEKY branches and a charming
decoration results. Make wee cherry
blossom sprays. Tie two identical
numbered pieces Of paper to two sprays
Matching numerals secures partners
for games, dances or supper.
Picking cherries is games in which
players are supplied with fancy baskets
made OF paper. such as come for nuts
or bonbons, or sauce dishes can be
used. They are asked to pick as many
cherries as they can find between the
signals given by the hostess She has
previously hidden about the rooms a
quantity Of mock cherries. They should
be in unexpected places. The player
who picks the most in the given time
Is awarded prize. A jar of cram
berry sauce Is suggested.
Another good game is a cherry petal
shower. Into bag of tissue paper,
preferably green, is put all the petal
confetti not used for the cherry
branches. =. This the hostess suspends
from chandelier, or in a doorway.
When all guests have gathered near it,
the hostess tears the paper and fans
the petals about as they fall. The
player who succeeds in catching the
most petals in her two cupped hands
Is awarded a prize. The hostess keeps
the petals In the air as long as possible
by tanning them.

the victims were foes.
Even the butchers friends will not
| forgive him his habit of hiding in
bushes and initiating the call-notes OF
| baby birds. He can fool them every
time and seems to take fiendish delight
| in his ability to do so. When the inno-
cent babies rush to answer his call, the
wicked giant pounces upon them and
takes his pick. The screams and fright
of the birds show how much they fear
! him, and after their first terror has
passed, they get away as fast as
! they can.
The favorite lookout is from some
tall tree, housetop or weather vane.
Nothing escapes his sharp eyes. A liz
ard, strolling in the sun, never knew

quickly enough to avoid the fatal stroke.

There are famous heroes among the
Greeks-Agamemnon Ajax and Achil-
les.
The fighting has been dragging on
for nine years-what is it all about?
If we may believe the poem known as
the "Iliad," it is a struggle to punish
the Trojans because a prince named
Paris had stolen" a beautiful Greek
woman.
Three goddesses, as the story goes,
asked Paris to choose the most beauti-
full, and the prince decided in favor of
Venus. In reward she gave him the
most lovely woman in the world, Helen,
wife of the King of Sparta.
The "Iliad" pictures gods and god
desses taking part in war between
men Mars and Venus were on the
Trojan side. Juno and Minerva helped
the Greeks. 1t was possible for god
to be wounded by human soldier, but
not to be killed. The Greeks believed
that god had the gift of everlasting
life, and could be given no deadly
wound.
During the siege single combat
took place between Hector and Ajax,
and it ended in draw Later Achilles
fought with Hector, and slew him.
Despite the loss of their hero, the
ITo1anS were able TO save Inelr city
until the Greeks pretended to give up
the attack They marched away, leav-
ing a large wooden horse as a gift to
the enemy. The Trojans took the horse
inside their city, while they rejoiced
over victory; but the horse was hollow
and contained Greek soldiers! At night
the Greeks used trap door to get down
from their hiding place. Troy was set
aflre. and the Greek King took the
lovely Helen back to Sparta.
1t is supposed that the "Iliad" was
written by blind Greek named
Homer, but there is no certain proof
that it was composed by a man OF such
name. Perhaps it was the work OF more
than one person. Much Of 1t, OF course
was Just fancy, but the ruins OF real
city have been found at the place where

The Greeks have no cannon,

The Trojans are living inside walled
