Exceptions will be allowed only in cases wher events occur later than the time mentioned.) THE MESSAGE OF MUSIC. What's that the fiddle's sayin' which the others never hear? Somethin' that's a-hoverin' betwixt a smile an' tear! Somethin' of the past time the shadow an' the beam, An' I hear it for the last time in a dream in a dream! "The old lads are weary Youth must have a chance; Too old to dance now Too old to dance!" On merry nights I hear it from my chimney-corner place; Jtosy cheeks aroun' me, with the dimples in a race! An' I seem to feel their freshness a breath of golden curls, As movln' to the music they swing the sweetheart-girls! "The old lads are lonesome Youth must have a chance; Too old to dan"o now Too old to dance!" That's how the fiddle's singin' in a tune to them unknown A sort of farewell message to the heart of me alone! "You've reaped the youth-time roses you've had your day and time; The twilight round you closes, where bells of Mem'ry chime "The old lads are lonesome Youth must have a chance; Too old to dance now Too old to dance!" FRANK L. STANTON. DURING THE COMING MONTH spring festivities will be at their height. Picnics, spring festivals and al fresco gatherings ot all descriptions have been the espe cial prerogative of the "Merry month of May" for many centuries. England perhaps lias contributed the greatest amount of quaint folk lore and customs for the "month of Mary" as It is called in Catholic countries" for it is quito the pleaa nntest month of the year in that climate. May day or May first, according to ancient legendary history, dating from the time of the Roman Invasion of Britain, was the signal of the ar rival of spring and win inn "'-"'i iv pleasure parties who went a-Marylng in the early dawn, returning .... tho may-polo and laden with spring blossoms and brandies of hawthorn. One o:d English writer describes the custom something llko tills. "In tho month of May the city of London and nil estates generally did fetch their May-poles with devices for pastime, all day long aivhers, nioniee dancers, nnd other d vices for pasttime, nil day long and towards evening they had stage phiys and bonfires in the streets." A part of this celebration exists at tho present day and American as well as English children enjoy tho May polo dnnco presided over by the ciistomnry "Queen o' tho May." Tho Qucon of the .May of Morrle England w.is not alone In her reign as is tho present dny sovereign. Sho was as sisted by a May-lord who presided over the gnmes and rural sports and often neteil as court Jester as well. Tho May-garlanil was another , quaint custom from which has devol-' oped tho modem Idea of May has-1 kets, the delight of children, who I ring tho bell and run away, leaving a bit of spring on tho door step, i Tho garland was a largo wreath of flowers carried from house to house by two children on May day ove. Many flowers have taken their names from this month. Tho flow ering splrea is Italian May; tho marsh marigold has the unouphont o u mimo of Hay-blob, tha hawth- V H 1 8Sb" --S ftfff orne Is the May-bloom and the May lily Is the Hly-of-the-valley. , That the feminine traits of the ' dwys of the "good queen Bess" were not widely different from present day traits is set forth in the favorite beauty cure of the time. "The maids of England were wont to steal away at early dawn on May dt.y morn to bathe their faces in the soft May dew, a sure preservative of beauty." To the modern hostess May offers manifold opportunities for original ity in entertaining. While supersti tion still taboos the month as an auspicious one for weddings, there are countless festivities which may precede the nuptials to take place in June, the month of brides and roses. Fruit blossoms, early roses and other garden flowers may be supple mented In decorations by dogwood and pink rhododendrons which will soon cover the hills with their rosy glow. For a pink and white luncheon the following menu might be varied to suit the needs of the May hos tess: Fruit Cocktail Cream of Tomato Soup, Salt Wafers Halibut Steaks New Potatoes Radishes Tomato and Asparagus Salad Rolls Strawberries and Cream Strawberry Ice Cream White Frosted Cakes Coffee For a green and white luncheon this might offer suggestions: Cream of Pea Puree Creamed Chicken or Creamed Crab Green Peas, or Artichokes Potato Croquettes Stuffed Eggs on Lettuce Leaves Lettuce Sandwiches Pistachio Ice Cream Angel Cake Coffee For a pink luncheon the creamed chicken or crab could be garnished w:h pimentos, for the green color scheme, with parsley. Menus for a yellow and white luncheon, a lavender and white or oilier color ideas are easily con structed with the aid of the cook book and a knowledge of what the market can supply; and as this mode of entertaining Is becoming more popular every day the hostess will feel herself well repaid for her trouble by the enjoyment of her guests in the novelty. A miniature May pole would make a charming center piece for the luncheon table and favors might be tinv may baskets of the favorite mint, wlntorgreen or pistachio wafers. Thursday evening Mrs. F. K.
