A spring table is shown on the back cover. The centerpiece, runner and candle shades are of blue and white crepe paper, decorated with butterflies cut from crepe No. 313. Copyright, 1922, by Deniiison Manufacturing Co. JAN 1 1 1922 THE PAKTT ^ BOOR The Affairs of Cupid Hearts and flowers are the symbols of St. Valentine's Day and always make attractive decorations. To reproduce the table illustrated, over the silence cloth spread plain white crepe paper, then use the lower half of decorated crepe paper No. V461 around the table edge. Baste this on, covering the stitches with a strip of red crepe paper 13^ inches wide. Little heart and cupid cut-outs suspended by narrow strips of paper trim the lower edge. Cupid himself is cut from design No. V461 and holds ribbon streamers as he swings from the chandelier. Ropes of flowers and a seat of matstock form the swing. An appropriate place card is one of wire wrapped with a narrow strip of red crepe paper, then bent into the shape of two hearts with a spiral standard. Serving cups decorated with red crepe paper and Cupid cut-out No. V230 carry out the swing idea.

The border around the table is made of crepe paper No. 296 with an under ruffle of pink. The httle heart tree found on napkin V1019 has been taken as a motif for the centerpiece. To make it, wind wires of varying length with green crepe paper, inserting tiny leaves. At the end of each wire paste two hearts of pink matstock. Bend the wires as illustrated, then fasten them together and wind neatly, thus forming the tree trunk. "Plant" the heart tree in a real pot or one made of matstock. The heart tree place card printed on the napkin may be mounted on cardboard and cut out, or a tiny tree in a pot may be made in the same way as the center- piece.

The hanging dome has been given a rosy appearance by the addition of rose petals made from crepe paper No. 35 and finished with a strip of green crepe paper cut to resemble a calyx. The rose idea is repeated in the table decoration, while below the petals hangs soft fringe of the same glowing color. A large rose forms the table centerpiece topped by an American eagle cut from crepe paper No. P557. Among the rose petals are concealed favors for the guests. The standing rose is in reahty j^ a serving cup, and the rosebud fashioned at the end of a pencil ^^^^ is both useful and decorative. Page four These are not Stock Goods S'THE PAKTY ^ BOOR Tables of Red, White and Blue Patriotic celebrations are apt to include a large number of people. Therefore, elaborate favors and table decorations must give way to a simple treatment which need be none the less effective. Strips of red crepe paper, crossed on long banquet tables with blue stars be- tween, serve as an example of quick results. Flags on standards with red, white and blue streamers between make a worthwhile addition. The eagle and flag, cut from crepe paper No. P557 and mounted on matstock, may be combined with goldenrod, then hung at intervals over the tables. Little tent place cards are made of cards bent into shape with a flag flying atop. Napkin No. P505 pleated and fastened behind shield cut-out No. P91 forms a unique favor. If a buffet table is desired, use blue and white paper fringe as illustrated with runners of red crepe paper. Price List on Page 30 Page 6ve THE PAKTT ^ BOOR A Table in the Greenest of Green No wonder Pat and Kathleen dance gaily in anticipation of the fun to be had on March 17. The table may be laid with a shamrock cover found with plates and napkins in lunch set No. S135. Place cards may be secured at small expense; caps, invitations and many other things help toward a good time. The hostess may also make many novelties which will add to the jolHty. Lollypop dolls are always welcome, though they remind one of the sad truth, "You cannot both eat your cake and have it. " Other quaint little figures may be made by stuffing crepe paper for heads, then adding faces and ruffles and attaching them to sticks of candy. Cups for nuts or candy are decorated with ruffles of green crepe paper, then trimmed with shamrock cut-outs No. S287. The dancing figures are cut from crepe paper No. S654, and the green under them is made by covering a cardboard foundation with fringed strips of crepe paper. When lifted it reveals a small favor for each guest present.

The table is trimmed with red crepe paper cut into points, each finished with a metal "costume bell." If bells are not available, make small balls of crepe paper and fasten to each point. To make the points of even width unfold the paper, then refold it, starting with ends together and folding until there are eight thicknesses. Cut three or four equal points through the entire thickness to within 5 or 6 inches of the top and then unfold. Use a narrow strip of crepe paper to finish the edge. Make as many cone-shaped caps of white wrapping paper as there are to be guests, having them of graduated sizes, so that they will slip one inside the other. Decorate with crescents or circles of assorted colors, and trim the outside cap with bands of crepe paper and pompons. Attach a ribbon to each hat and stand them on a ruffle of red crepe paper. Page eight All prices subject to change TH E PAKTY ^ BOOK Easter Eggs and Bunnies Children adore a Bunny Party whether it be at Easter or at any other time throughout the year. Crepe paper No. E728 offers great decorative opportunities. It may be used for a border around the table or as a frieze around the room. .aJ»' For the egg-shaped Jack Horner pie make an 8-inch circle of a narrow strip of matstock, to it attach two strips long enough to make half circles and attach on opposite sides of the hoop. Paste a piece of crepe paper around the hoop drawing down and pasting any fulness at the base. Paste another thickness of crepe paper over the first, allowing 5 inches to extend above the opening. Line with crushed crepe. Paste the lining and outside together at the top. Cut the irregular edge. Liberal use of paste will help keep the shell in shape after it is dry. The hanging decoration is composed of three egg-shaped pieces of matstock fastened together and trimmed with bunnies and eggs. Each child receives for favors a "bunny" cup and a rabbit cap. The cap is made by stitching two pieces of crepe paper together and adding "features." The ears are wired so that they will stand up. i 1^ ^- >„^ -"-, ^> Ik I A " — ■'•4 i -- ^'#^ k: k' Buy the goods of your local dealer Page nine TH E PATLTY ^ BOOR A ''Last Minute" Party ["7^ -r^ What a comfort it is to know that if the birthday of ' ^..7 1 one of the httle folks has crept upon us unawares, or if ' ; I . we are especially busy as that eventful time draws near, we may still give a party which will in every way satisfy the expectations of small people. It means a trip to the nearest Dennison dealer, to be sure, but once there we may purchase invitations with envelopes to match all ready to send out. The party set No. C198 consists of a table cover, twelve napkins and twelve waterproof plates, all in a lovely children's design. There are name cards, also, for each child, caps for them to wear, little card- board boys and girls to stick into cakes or mounds of ice cream, and small boxes. No. C9, daintily designed to hold bon bons to carry home. All that remains to be secured is the birthday cake with its gleaming candles. At such a party the children may choose their own games, of which they never tire: London Bridge, Statues, Drop the Handkerchief, Blind Man's Buff and the rest. lU,hl :^:i\ ?i#' Page ten Price List on Page 30 TH E PAKTY ^ BOOR -^^^ What a Circus for Little People ! A Circus Party will capture the heart of every child. Get some older boy to help you who will dress up and act the part of a clown. If there is a clever little dog available, let him perform. A few very simple sleight-of-hand tricks may be done with little or no effort. The table centerpiece is made of matstock, wire and crepe paper. The animals are cut from crepe paper No. 17, and the children riding them are found on napkins No. 322. For favors, paste an elephant's head cut from crepe No. 17 to a "blower" and fasten the boy's head found on crepe No. 69 to a "cricket." Make little bags over cup forms and decorate them with animals' heads cut from crepe No. 17. Fill the bags with popcorn. Buy the goods of your local dealer Page eleven E PAKTT - BOOR "Hi, Ho! The Merry May Pole" As surely as the year turns round and the warm days come, so sure are we of May Day with its dances and baskets and gay good times. The interest centers about the May pole, which is sometimes used on the lawn in true Enghsh fashion, but more often as a table decoration with its streamers ending in bows on May baskets of varied design and color. The baskets may hold one course of the luncheon or, if that is not practical, at least nuts and bon bons. Serving cup forms may be purchased in a number of sizes and decorated with ruffles of crepe paper, flowers and even shelf pa- per, which is of a very con- venient width. The handles if of wire can be bent into different shapes and heights. Old-fashioned games should be played at a May Party, — out of doors, if possible, — among them Battledore and Shuttlecock. Competition in hoop rolling and kite flying will also prove to be great sport. Page twelve These are not Stock Goods THE PAKTT ^ BOOR Oh, to be Queen of the May ! P -;^_ Many will look with envious eyes at this Uttle May queen in her plain white crepe paper dress with panniers at the sides, which are full pieces of paper gathered top and bottom and sewed on at the waist line. Sprays and bunches of flowers in pastel shades are used as trimming. The train is made of a succession of ruffles, gath- ered and stitched to a full fold of crepe paper and fastened on at the shoulders. The sewing machine can be used very successfully to stitch paper and will save much time in making a gown of this kind. (All crepe paper costumes, except slip-ons, are basted or stitched to a cloth slip.) A matstock crown is shaped and fitted, then covered with silver paper and trimmed with flowers cut from crepe No. 952. The little page may be dressed in white trousers and blouse with a jacket of bright blue crepe paper No. 54. A wide ruffle of white paper gives the old-time note, and a lacing of black 3^-inch paper rope, or blue ribbon if preferred, com- pletes the attire. These are not StocK Goods Page thirteen THE PAKTY ^ BOOR Party Games On St. Valentine's Day let fate enter into the games a bit. On the front of an old pack of cards paste hearts of many colors — one on each card except the heart and spade suits. Shuffle, cut and deal all cards out. Colors are quite sug- gestive and will indicate what is going to happen. Silver heart means money. Gold heart, much money. Black he£irt, a warning — beware of a wicked person near. White heart, an even career. Green heart, jealousy will control you. Yellow heart, some one is untrue to you. Red heart, a brighter day coming, Blue heart, some hard times ahead. Purple heart, you will be favored by royalty. He who draws a spade must pay a forfeit to the one who draws a matching heart. The King and Queen of Hearts proclaim the reigning pair for the evening. The King and Queen of Spades shall be exiled (for ten minutes). At the Pat Party Green Work Give out as many shades of green material as you have couples, giving half of each piece to the boys and half to the girls. Ask the boys to match their samples. If the shades are similar, boys will have some trouble. Co-operative Letters Next ask the couples to pass before eight boxes, take a word from each box, then using the eight words drawn as a basis write a letter to some relative in Ireland. The hostess should be careful to select words for each box that will make sen- tences. For instance, in the first box adjectives; second box, proper names; third and fourth boxes, verbs; fifth box, words denoting an accident; sixth, a jolly happening; seventh, an inanimate object; eighth, a profession. If read, using the brogue, the letters will be very funny — first, the words drawn and then the "effort." Passing a Peck of Potatoes Instead of the old-fashioned potato race choose sides with a captain for each. Place a bucket or a basket at the head and foot of each line of players. The game is to pass the potatoes from the bucket, one at a time, down the line into the basket and back again. April First For an April Fool Party everything should be a surprise and as incongruous as possible. The hos- tess greets the arrivals with, " Good-by, so sorry you could not come. " Twists and Turns AH are asked to be prepared to do some trick which will April Fool the others. If the hostess cares to do so she can furnish the tricks, enclosing them in the in- vitation. Guests may then try theirs out and come "primed" to do their part toward entertaining. Page fourteen Price List on Page 30 I^ THE PAKTT BOOK Drawing Contest Before a bona fide game with pencil and paper hostess gives out both articles with much ceremony then, when all are ready, asks them to "draw their breath. " A real game should follow. The Pie Cut Favors in the Jack Horner pie are carefully marked, but upon opening them girls find strictly boys' trinkets and vice versa. (If they are swapped, the hostess will not really feel hurt.) For her trick, the hostess may place three coins on the table, No. 1 and No. 2 quite near together, No. 3 at quite a distance from No. 2. Ask some one to bend down, squint the eye along the table, and point out which two coins look to be the farthest apart. Player will likely point out No. 2 and No. 3. Hostess then asks, "Why not No. 1 and No. 3.3" EggsActly Either with pencil and paper, or as a spelling bee, these Easter exs (or eggs) may be guessed: Eggs odd and erratic Eggs — centric Eggs irritated Eggs — asperated Eggs barred from church Eggs — communicated Eggs too high priced Eggs — orbitant Eggs for packing Eggs — celsior Eggs making a long noise Eggs — plosion The dictionary will furnish any number of similar "eggs." Scrambled Eggs Guests form in a circle wliile hostess passes a colored cardboard egg. She then pro- duces a basket covered with twigs to resemble a nest and from it throws eggs of many colors into the center of the room. Guests at once scramble for their owa color. Different sizes count different points and for the wrong color found among the other eggs a penalty must be paid. Geography Examination For your mental exammation you are asked to abbreviate the states according to the suggestions below: A young girl Miss. A number Tenn. A crowd Mass. A father Pa. To be sick III. To cut grass Mo. Monday's work Wash. Used in the flood Ark. Those who pass the examinations are given over to their captain, on whose side all games during the evening are played. Such games as the "March to Tipperary," suggested by ' 'Going to Jerusalem," reaching the opposing Hne through wire entanglements, suggested by the old game of Spider's Web, "Catching the Spy " an adaptation of "Hide and Seek," these and others may be suited to the occasion by the hostess. Serve supper on long, bare tables, calling your soldiers to mess with the bugle reveille sounded on the piano. Although we do not sell it, the book called "Home Entertaining" by William E.

Work for effect — do not putter over details. Get the general decoration finished. Then, if time permits, give fine touches. If the decorations are ever to come down, have pity on the remover and drive the tacks in only half way. They will hold perfectly well. Wire is better than string for attaching decorations and for holding things together. Two twists hold when a string shps in tying. Crepe paper almost always is stretched a little before using. This should be done by two people, one at either end of the paper. First, double the end over once or twice or, better still, roll it over a ruler or stick so that it will not tear, and then pull steadily until it is sufiiciently stretched. In covering a background in plain effect, fold over the top edge of the paper once or twice; then tack, lapping the second piece % inch and so on. When the top is finished, stretch crepe down smoothly and tack at the bottom. Hang the dull side out, for Dennison crepe will hug tightly that way, as it tends to roll in. If the height to be covered necessitates tight stretching, tack through little pasteboard squares or pasteboard strips so that tacks will not pull through the paper. Ruffled or fluted edges can be made evenly and easily without removing the paper entirely from the packet. Puflafl edges together back and forth between the thumbs and forefingers, thus producing a rippled effect. Fringe: Cut a fold of crepe paper across the grain of the crepe into length required for the fringe. Fold one end up to within 1 inch of the other end. Fold and refold until you can cut handily, leaving the 1-inch border. Shake out fringe. Crushed Crepe: Stretch crepe. Lay on smooth surface. Take up a small section with tips of fingers of both hands, crushing it tightly. Repeat over whole piece of crepe Fluting Edge Crushing Crepe Price List on Page 30 Page twenty-one THE PAKTT ^ BOOK Costumes for the Holidays Red ruffles rolled on the edge, decorated crepe paper No. V461 cut into trimming and narrow double ruffles of red and white crepe paper make the cunning Kttle girl's dress. The young man's valentine regalia shows a full width piece of white crepe paper cut out at the center and sHpped on over the head. The lower part is cut up to the waist both front and back. A sash around the body holds it in place. Two matstock hearts stitched together form the hat. The panniers on the young lady's dress are made Kke the loop of a large bow from the full width of crepe paper. One edge is wired, the other left to fall softly against the skirt, where they are fastened. The trimming is made of strips of twisted crepe paper. The hat brim is made like the hoop of the St. Patrick's costume, then crown and decorations are added. 11 W Page twenty two These are not Stock Goods TH E PAKTT ■ BOOR Pajamas are covered with white crepe paper to make the costume of the young man.

When the party assumes large proportions then does matching up become a more difficult problem. One must usually resort to numbering the different halves in order to avoid confusion or delay in "pairing off. " However, it is worth an effort even at the dance or large party to perfect some plan of matching, for it adds greatly to the fun if a few partners are obtained by lot rather than by choice. At the Valentine Dance Receiving the "Male" Present each boy with an envelope, two red cardboard hearts and two black gummed let- ters. (If there are more than twenty-six couples present, some must have white gummed let- ters.) Orders are to write something gallant on one heart, seal it with the letter and drop it in the mail box at the end of the hall. The mail box may be as elaborate as one wishes to make it. The second letter is pasted on the remaining heart, which the young man pins at his left side. When all the letters have been mailed, girls rifle the box, obtaining a letter and a matching partner. Button, Button, Who's Got the Button? Around ordinary buttons of varying shape and sizes, paste little petals of blue crepe paper so that the flowers thus made will resemble bachelors' buttons. Use wire through the holes for stems and add green leaves to complete the effect. Of course there must be two buttons ahke, one for the boy and one for the girl. The second set of buttons is surrounded with daisy petals then finished in the same way as the blue flowers. Of course the buttons, not the flowers, match up.

Attach the butter- flies to hairpins and give them out to the girls as favors. Make butterfly nets for the boys in this way: Fasten a wire together so that it forms a hoop about 7M inches in diameter. Take a strip of crepe paper long enough to go around the hoop and about 8 inches wide, fold and cut it into shts as indicated. Unfold, paste around the hoop, then gather up the bottom tightly. A wire handle may be added if desired, although very likely a boy after catch- \ 'lift ing his butterfly will wear his "snare" as a cap. Feet First Extend a sheet across an improvised frame so that it wiU stand about a foot above the floor. Place the frame before the doorway of a room into which the boys have been gathered. Stand as many boys be- hind the frame shoulder to shoulder as possible, then in turn let the girls choose a partner by his feet. Arrange to have one boy stepping in continually so that each girl may choose from the same number of "pedos. " Some feat to choose ^^JiT^^^^ - '1^^. A Pig in a Poke Pat dressed in true Irish fashion enters the dance hall with a large poke or sack on his back. He deposits this in the center of the floor and empties out its many long and narrow packages. Those tied with white ribbon are for the girls, those with green ribbon for the boys. Each guest selects his own package and upon opening it discovers — for the girls a Killarney rose and for the boys a T. D. pipe. To each is attached a little matstock pig, upon which a number is writ- ten for the purpose of matching partners. Keep the Ball Rolling All dancers form in a circle, then one young man is presented with a small bowling ball. This he rolls to a lady who becomes his partner. She in turn rolls it to a second young man, who then se- cures himself a partner and so on.

Morning Glory Booth Two ruffles of crepe paper Nos. 21 and 22 cover the table of the morning glory booth, then it is finished with five large flowers and a calyx strip of green. Fringe of No. 22 crepe softens the top line of the l)Ooth, and the trimming of flowers and vine completes the eff'ect. The large "glories" are pieces of the two shades of paper made into tubes, which are then gathered up at one end and stretched out at the other. Price List on Page 30 Page twonty-.-even THE PAKTT BOOK Gala Day Parades The first thing to do when decorating an automobile for a parade is to cover it entirely with cambric. Put pieces over the engine and tie to hood fasten- ings. Then put pieces around the entire car, tying and sew- ing into place. The effect of the finished decoration depends largely upon the smoothness and tightness of this foundation. Daisy Auto The entire car is covered with green fringe fastened to foundation. Daisy petals are used around the edge and for flowers. Crushed crepe paper is placed over the engine and around edge and top. A large daisy is made on an umbrella and held in place by heavy wires. Daisy petals cover the spokes and the hubs are con- cealed by the crushed crepe which makes the center. The Children's Part Little girl and her doll carriage both " trimmed" with blue crepe paper covered with silver stars. The pompons are made of red festoons.

Scallop the edge of full-width pieces of white crepe paper and outline the scallops by pasting on narrow strips of red crepe paper. (If you stretch the red strips as you proceed they will curve smoothly.) Fasten the scalloped strips around the body and top of the car, lapping one over the other as illustrated. Cut fringe of blue crepe paper and paste it on the mud guards, bumpers and over the engine front. Add shield, flag and bell decorations, then the poppies. The Large Float A framework built over the car will give it the desired shape. To copy the one illustrated, cover the body portion with colored crepe paper, then white and finish the top edge with trimming made in the following manner: Cut the full width fold of crepe paper in halves each 10 inches wide. Fold these through the center, making a double strip 5 inches wide. Slash the double edge into loops about one-half an inch wide.
