TOTALLY DESTROYED BY FIRE
Is what may be said of your home any time fire
comes without warning and cleans oat in a hurry
leaving you nothing but ashes, unless you are
protected by insurance.
If your home is worth $5,000 and is burned up
by fire without insurance you get nothing. If
you carry $5,000 insurance with the Farmers Mu
tual, for which you pay us only $37.50 and your
home burns you get $5,000. Which appeals to
your sound judgment ?

cial. Decorate with hearts and ar-j
rows. Carry oat the Valentine idea in I
other ways. Sell candy and Valen- J
tines which the girls or women haTe
made HaTe hot refreshments to Bell

When ha has shaken hands with Of-1

After all seem to be having a good

twelve young men appear and station j
themselves at dilfereat points In the
rooms, each one holding ??oft the em-1
blem of a month: for Instance. April
woald have an open smbrella. The
crowd should gather about their res
pective lenders according to the month
la which were horn and ten minuten
aliased tor conversation. Then call
on each group to call to mind some
Important event occurring In their
Mtth. The February leader could
have short sketches on Usraln. Low
ell. Longfellow. Washington. Edison
or Dickens sll of whoa weie born In
this month. If this *t>jM make the

or
every Valentine party. To start the
evenings fun this suggestion tor for
ftjta is jolly. Hang-en the walla of
your room as many hearts cut out of
red or gold paper as you have guests
minus one. Have your guests Join
hands and circle to some D right mus
ic. In a moment stop the music and
have each rush to cover a heart with
his hand. Of course one will be left
nut. and he or she must give a forfeit.
Then take away one neart and have
the others continue the rmg arond.
Keep this up until all the hearts are
taken down and all have gtven forfeits.
Now comes the redeeming of the pled
gcSTand this should be done by having
each one sing a love song or tell a
funny loke. If money making wan
the feature here, the walls could be
covered In different size hearts, each
gearing a fortune. An arrow should
be provided and a charge of five or
ten cents for each shot. Of course
some one should have or this who can
persuade people to try their luck at
shooting.
Another money making feature
could be carried out something like
this: When the peop-e have arrived,
they are suddenly startled by the ap
pearance In their midst of half doten
policemen with large hearts for bad
ges. on each heart should appear the
words. I-ore's Policeman. The peo
ple are then arrested, one by one, for
various offenses, and led before Judges
who are stationed behind desks st the
fonr sides of the room. The offend
ers. being found guilty, are lined and
given receipts in the shape of small
paper hearts, on each of which ap
pears a figuro Indlrattnar the amount
paid to the Judge. The offenses and
flnaa may be like Ihe following:

When the offenders bold receipts

which gift of sage doth Indicate (Sage)
A peppery mate you'll surely find; a
man who likes to speak his mind (Pep
per).

live amid the field of grain (Cereal).

nice; variety's of life the spice (Spic

A number or other suggestions can
be obtained from the Recreation flle
In the office. These are for the use
or the girls and women of the county.
If you would like something different
for the February prises, the Museum
of Revolutionary Kellcs, Independence
Hall, Philadelphia for a little silk
flag. It was Washington who con
ferred with Betsy RoAs on the making
of the flag, so the little flag would
make an appropriate gift. Or If you
prefer a wooden hatchet with a dear
association write to The Keeper, Wt.
Vernon, Virginia and you ran obtain
for thirty-five cents a little hatchet
made fro(n cherry wood grown on the
grounds.
