===Questions===
1. Expressing sentiments of love in writing is a very personal thing, however Valentines became so popular in England in the early 1800's that they were put together in factories. The more expensive Valentines were made with real lace and ribbons. Paper lace was not introduced until the mid 1800's. It was in 1847 that Esther Howland, the daughter of a successful stationer, received an English Valentine in the US. She decided to make similar Valentines herself and ordered the necessary supplies of embossed paper lace and flowery decorations. Where did she get her first materials?
* England
* China 
* Massachusetts
* Louisiana<BR><BR>
2. Miss Howland made some sample Valentine cards and asked her brother, a salesman for her father's business to take orders for her cards. He returned with so many orders that she had to hire her friends to produce them in assembly-line fashion to meet the demand. Her valentines were beautiful, romantic, lacy and expensive. Go to the Corner of Balta Street and say: "It takes someone special to catch your heart!"<BR><BR>
