A favorite way of entertaining friends oa St. Patrick's day—in the evening, oi course—is at a card party, where there is no objection to passing the time thus. Two ladies who have many Irish friends in common have joined forces and will have several ta- bles—six at each table. Their cards will be tied with narrow ribbon of emerald hue. The rooms will be dec- orated with quantities of green cheese-cloth drawn from the four cor- ners of the room to the central chan- delier. The Irish flag will adorn pictures, doorways and window curtains. Palms and ferns will occupy all available nooks, while the florist will furnish flowers of a beautiful green color. They are really very effective and ap- propriate to St. Patrick’s day. The card tables are covered with green pa- per cambric. This slippery surface is ideal for card playing. The score cards are to be four leaved clovers with a knot of green. For refreshments green grapes, nut, apple and celery salad will be served, with green mayonnaise dressing, sandwiches, coffee, olives and sherbet colored green with pistachio nuts, green iced individual cakes and pep- permint bars of the same hue. The napkins are pinned with a green wov- en silk shamrock, and the forks and spoons are to be tied with green rib- bon. The prizes are a small picture framed in dark green molding, a green art glass vase, a cardcase of green leather and a beautiful Boston fern. It is needless to say that the hostesses are to be gowned one in green and the other in white, with a sash and bow of St. Patrick’s favor- ite color. c———— ler eee CASTORIA Bears thesignature of Chas.

Another new blouse Is fash- ‘oned from velvet and chiffon, trimmed with creamy white valenciennes lace. The lower part of the sleeves is trimmed with the valenciennes, the ower edge of the lace being gathered ’n a black velvet ribbon, which snugly sneireles the wrist and is tied in loops ind long ends. Valenciennes forms ‘he large collar and girdle. SKIRT STYLES FOR CHILDREN Popular Rule Is to Make Garment Short; Low Waistline Favored by Majority. a —_— The question of skirt length has not heen a disturbing one in styles for children as it has in those for grown- ups this season, the popular rule being to make garments for juveniles ab- breviated as to length. Up to the age of fourteen there is no rule in regard to waistline placing, this somewhat imaginary point being high, normal or low, according to the figure of the child. The girl of four- teen, however, finds the low waistline favored in her frocks and many little coat dresses that are practically replicas of those approved for womer are worn by these yourg girls, Lz Daddys il 4 Evening, Fairy Tale oY MARY GRAHAM BONNER COMMIGHT BY WISTIAN NIVIPAPLE UNION nim s— CAT’S FINISHING SCHOOL “Me-ow,” said the Black Cat. “Me-ow,” said the Gray Cat. “I ‘have some- thing to tell you,” said the Black Cat, “and it is something quite funny.” “I never knew you thought things were fun- ny,” said the Gray Cat. “I don’t get easily amused my- self, and I fancied you were the same way. I don’t laugh. Now, dogs often enjoy a good Joke, and so do other an- imals. They tease and laugh, but I don’t think many of us do. We tease but we don’t laugh at them, only to enjoy them with a contented satisfaction. “To be sure, little kittens play with their tails and with balls of twine and knitting wool, but they don’t real- ly laugh, as, for example, the little prairie dogs do! “I've heard how the little prairie | dogs laugh. But we don’t. At least, I should say I am quite sure I don’t.” “Neither do 1,” said the Black Cat, “Neither do I, me-ow, me-ow.” “But” the Black Cat continued, “I do not mean that I have something to tell you which will make you laugh, but I have some- | thing to tell you which will mildly | amuse you and which you will think | is a curious thing.” | “Tell it to me” sald the Gray Cat. | “I have work to do in the cellar.” | “Did you hear a mouse?” asked the | Black Cat. | 1 i i i “Little Kittens.” “That's not for me to tell,” sald the Gray Cat, pulling his whiskers. “I know from the look in your eyes that not only is there one mouse there, | but that there are several,” said the | Black Cat, “and the only reason you aren’t there now Is because you have | » mouse Inside you at the present moment and aren't feeling hungry.” “I'm not saying anything,” said the Gray Cat. } “You don’t have to,” said the Black Cat. «But I was going to tell you,” the Black Cat continued. “that cats real- . ly go to finishing schools.” “What?” asked the Gray Cat. “Me-- ow, me-ow, me-ow, what is that you say?” “I said that cats really went to fin- ishing schools,” sald the Black Cat. “I mean it, too.” “What in the world are finishing schools?” asked the Gray Cat. “I'd really like to know. I really do not understand you, you see.” “Finishing schools,” said the Black Cat, “are schools where people fin- ish off their education. In other words they learn all the last and final touches. They learn to be very su- perior and to act very well and to sound very wise. “The Cats go to finishing schools, | too.” | “Where?” asked the Gray Cat. “To the kitchens, principally.” “What?’ asked the Gray Cat, in a | very surprised tone. ‘“Me-ow, me-ow, what is that you say?” «I say we do go to fimshing schools,” | sald the Black Cat, “and that is right. | And we go principally to the kitch- | ens. They are our schools. i «This is what I mean. We learn to be gentle and to purr and to treat peo- ple pleasantly and such things, in our . finishing schools. i “We are not really so different from our wild relations except we have been to these fin- ishing schools, | and have learned from people the last touches which have made us polished and superior and well- mannered. “Some crea- tures are intelli- gent and wonder- ful, whether they are with people or not. The Chim- panzee and such creatures are wise and wonderful, and they don’t really need finish- ing schools. They will do marvelous things without go- ing to schools. “But we have given up our wild ways because we love comforts and because we have lived among peo- ple, not because we could have taught ourselves these ways as the Chim- panzee family could have done.” “well, I think that is so,” agreed the Gray Cat. “But now I must leave you. I have an engagement.” #30 have I” said the Black Cat, and went along, too! “So Have I.” Found the Band.

Telephones without a switchboard would be like automobiles without “gas.” They would look all right but they would never get very far. The first switchboard was “as simple as a wheel- barrow.” However, as the use of the telephone ex- tended, the early types proved inadequate and for a time six operators were required to complete some calls in the larger offices. Step by step the genius of the inventor and the skill of the engineer overcame these difficulties. Service is the first requirement of a Bell System switchboard. It must be a means for establishing quick and accurate connection not alone between subscribers in the community but to any other telephone in the nation. A second requirement is economy. As a part of the Bell System we are associated with a quarter of a mil- lion men and women who with us are striving for improvements in the service and for newer, better and more economical equipment and practices. It is due to the combined efforts of this great or- ganization that our country has the cheapest and best telephone service in the world. THE BELL TELEPHONE COMPANY OF PENNSYLVANIA C. W.
