WHEN FRIENDS GATHER
ON ST. PATRICK'S DAY.
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.

VALENCIENNES LACE IS USED
Embellishment Affords Splendid Dec-
oration for the Dark Silk or
Satin Frock.
Valenciennes lace enjoys consider-
able of a vogue for the decoration of
jark silk or satin frocks. A black
foulard gown showed a large collar
and deep cuffs composed of alternate
rows of valenciennes lace and inser-
+jons. 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,

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. |

“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.”

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.
