know that better than we do. They
don't have to make too much sense,
because there aren't many of us

dash off the required number in a

Another game that's fun is called
Pans Pipes, the necessary equip
ment for which is a clay pipe for
each player, which can also be pur-
chased at novelty store, and a
big pan OF soap suds. The players
are divided into two teams and lined
up in relay fashion, opposite the
bowls. The leaders run across the
room to the bowl of suds with their
pipes, blow a bubble and holding
the bubble on the pipe bowl, go back
and touch the hand of the next
player who does the same thing.
Whenever a bubble bursts (Which is
frequently the player must drop
out. The team with the most play
ers left gets the prize, which can be

thing green, no matter what it is.
What to eat that will still carry
out the color scheme and the idea
of the day? Cream cheese and olive
sandwiches always go well at a
party, for another variety, try
minced ham and pickle sandwiches,
stuffed olives, potato chips, green
gelatine fruit salad in paper con-
tainers, white and green frosted
cup cakes and the pause that re-
|freshes-soft drinks.
For favors, little pigs are cute. If
you can't find enough green ones,
pull out the trusty paint brush and
get to work.

Of the room, build a mound of gras:
with brown and green crepe paper
as closely resembling grass as your
artistic nature will get it, and on
this put the largest stone you can
carry into the room. This Is the
Blarney Stone that no Irish party
can be without.
Green is the color scheme of the
day, and all the guests should be
dressed accordingly. Put as many
green decorations as you can in the
room; there's that old green crepe
paper again. Cut it out in the form
of shamrocks and pigs and any
thing else you think Is Irish. Since
no party is complete without records,
find as many Irish songs as you
can, and have them playing all the
time the party is going on, as back
ground.
For entertainment, try this game
with the Blarney Stone. Small rolls
Of paper, tied with green ribbon are
hidden over the stone. Each boy
invites a girl to be his partner for a
grand march, and each couple as
they pass the Blarney Stone takes
one of the small paper rolls, stop
ping long enough to make a wish
When each couple has procured a
roll, the march stops and the rolls
are read in turn, each purporting to
be the answer to the wish made at
the stone. The jingles are on the
order of these:
"You and your lover will part
For you'll have change of heart. u
watch the next mail for letter,

The Young Idea

It's almost time for the wearing
Of the green, so let's get out our
green ribbons, shamrock, Paddy's
pig and have a party to help the
Irish celebrate their big day. He's
their patron and they really 60 all
out on March II. Whether we're
Irish or not, it's good time for a
party.
st. Pat has romantic background
to say the least. According to leg
end, he was native of Tours,
France, and at the age of 16, was
carted away by pirates, taken to
the north of Ireland where he was
sold as slave. He became noted
preacher and started to work on the
Irish country. He organized
churches, two colleges and Civilized"
the people. One of the most popu-
lar legends gives him credit for
chasing the snakes out of Ireland.
It seems that everywhere st. Pat
rick went, he always had a drum
that would attract the attention Of
the people. We don't know if he
beat it himself or had some one do it
for him. At all events, just before
going up the hill to preach the
sermon that was to finish off the
snakes, the drum was beaten so
furiously that the skin broke. The
people who had assembled to see
the snakes vanish were little upset
at this, since they thought most of
his power was in his drum. AS soon
as it broke, big snake was said to
have started gliding down the hill
side. AS the story goes, an angel
appeared, patched up the drum,
st. Patrick started beating again
and the snakes vanished.
Since this is the most popular
story Of all, we think the decoration
theme should be snakes. You can
buy them at the 10-cent stores or at
any novelty store, or il by any

Plus for Minus

As a general rule, it's probably
quite true that you get just what
you pay for. However, every now
and then you run across those
thing that certainly do, undeni-
ably, look like a plus for minus.
For most of us women, there's
nothing so soul satisfying as a
GOOD bargain. OF course, that
means bargains that make sense.
There's no bargain about collecting
a whole lot of odds and ends that
are going for little or nothing, If
they don't fit into the scheme of
your wardrobe in any way. But to
60 out with the definite idea of
hunting down q few inexpensive
items that will add variety to your
closet collection, THAT can make
a whole lot Of sense, provided that
you have a real need for these
things.
We set today aside to go out
and ambush that sort of really good
buy. We tried to think of good
buys you might truly be interested
in and the sort that you might
really want for supplementing your
wardrobe at this point. We fig-
ured on accessories to go with your
suit. If you have a set of dollars
worth ones, you might like a penny
wise set for a change. We thought
maybe, a casual dress to wear to
the Office as a change from the
usual suit of the season. Well, here

Why Grow Old?

If we could just learn the art OF
relaxation it would be SO important
to us because it would allow us to
live and to work without fatigue. 1t
is entirely possible to acquire this
art. You can start in small way
and almost Immediately notice the
difference in yourself. You will find
that you are not only less tired but
that you work more efficiently.
We 60 at everything with rush
and tension and a feeling Of high
pressure within ourselves. Deliber-
ately relax at your work. INTENSE
Take it easy. You will get just as
much or more done. It doesn't help
to have all of the muscles in youl
body tense and your tongue rigid ir
your mouth when you concentrate
Even when you use only few
muscles in your work, If you will
observe yourself you will find that
you are tensing many others which
you do not need. Many times day
say to yourself, "Slow up! Untense!'
You will feel the muscles relax and
you will avoid fatigue.
Exercise is a splendid relaxer II

valuable when you do them in q

ANGEL FOOD CAKE;
POPOVERS.
(From Mrs. c. E. W., Hynttspille.
All recipes have used for Ange.
Food Cake call for an oven Of 32s
degrees for 60 or IS minutes. Ths
275 degree temperature you used
would be too low for an Angel Cake
to cook in one hour in my electric
oven, I'm sure. A recipe that gives
measure Of egg whites rather than
the number seems more accurate
because the size of the eggs vary
I sift the flour once before measur-
ing then sift three times with "a
OF the sugar, but do not measure
|again. Measuring the mixture OF
sugar and flour each time through
ten siftings seems unnecessary. Once
at the end would accomplish the
same purpose. BY measuring the
-four after several siftings you re-
duce the actual amount of flour
used because each time the flour
puffs up more and gives more vol
ume, that is discarded when meas
ured.
The following recipe IS given by
a well-known cake flour company
It varies only slightly from the one
you gave, in respect to amount of
egg whites, temperature and number
