There should be a number of parade

giant Teddy bears, which are really,

could be announced on -the posters.

strange specimens of society.
After the parade a loud gong an-
nounces dinner. Following that could,
be a brief program. Everybody would
sing "The Maple Leaf;" the Bay
Scouts, the Girl Scouts, or any Ideal
club might give a play or pantomime;
a focal celebrity might make a short
speech, preferably humorous: As a

are always popular. Besicle's all the

tion race, and a somersault race. The
prizes may he funny favor men or ani-
mals adorned with splashing bows of
ribbon or crepe paper.
The sounding of the gong indicates
the Nine for the ealvacade to -start' for
home. Four ex half -past four is a -
good hour to select.
Such an affair is lots of fun if
everybody goes and enters into the
sport. It's not a great deal of wont
if the -responsibility is well divided
and the proper interest is taken.' Try

RECIPES AND
OTHER THINGS.
11,
The wife of the young pastor was
also very young, and as new to her
exciting adventure of housekeeping as
he to his parish. She was so humble
in her acknowledgment of her inexper-
ience and so grateful for advice that
the hearts of the capable housewives
of the congregation warmed to her at
once. Never before had they had so
humble a pastor's wife; the experience
was unique and delightfhl.
Miss Abby Gale, arriving one, day
just as Miss Gachet was leaving,
found her hostess excited over her
latest acquisition.
"Isn't it lovely the way things hap-
pen?" she exclaimed. "I wanted some
good recipes for bread. I have one,
but it doesn't seem to come out right,
though Arthur never says a word. But
I knew there were aver so many good
ways of making it if I could only get
hold of them. And now Miss Gachet
has come with thirty-two recipes—
just think of al And she brought me
the whole collection. Isn't it kind of
her?"
"Aid Louise Gachet say how many
of the recipes she had tried and test-
ed?" Miss" Gale asked.
"Why, no—I don't think she did,"
Mrs, Eastman replied. "She just said
they were all very fineexecipes."
"Yes, she would," Miss Gale res-
ponded dryly. "That's Louise Gachet.
T don't want you to think .that.I don't
appreciate Louise, for I do; there are
lots of: nine things about her, and she's
kindness itself, But 'he runs ort
judgment. Any new thing
he
sees or hears about she is sure to
think wonderful, and she's always
hearing so many that she hasn't time
really to try out one in' ten. Now, if
you want to- know, the chances are
that just about two of those recipes
she brought you are worth anything;
the rest it nestled be a waste of your
time and materials to try. -
"If you want tasted tbings, war-

if you follow the rule, go to Mary
Rawlins. She may not offer you such
a groat variety or so marry novelties,
but everything she .rocommends'she

doing things, I calculate that more
