Don’t forget that King Foam Is coming to dinner first, and that we’re to have the party after ward.’’ So the waves and the sea fair ies, and all the children of Mother Ocean got ready for the party. They put on their best party dresses of blue with "How Do You Do?" sparkling sea dia monds for orna ments, How gay and beautiful they did look, and Mother Ocean, came out dressed up as tinely as could be with the loveliest and the most dazzling dress ever you or I saw before. At last it was time for King Foam to appear. “How do you do. Mother Ocean?” he said as he arrived. ‘Honored to see jou, sir.” said Moth er Ocean. And all the waves rind sea fairies said: “Honored to see you, sir.” “We are going to dine first." said Mother Ocean, *‘And we have tried to prepare a repast which will please you." She smiled at King Foam the love liest smile you ever saw. It was such a beautiful smile, so dazzling ami so gay and so happy and so bright that it was enough to make the whole world feel bright and happy and merry and gay if they could have seen it, and all those who did see It were smiling and saying: “Did you ever in your life see such a beautiful day?” It was all because of Mother Ocean's party and her smiles. “We’ll have the music start now,” said Mother Ocean, “and it will play throughout the dinner, too.” She gave a low call and then the music began. It was beautiful music, and the musicians were all hidden In their little stage right under the top of the water. They played the most beautiful tunes, sometimes they were jolly and merry and some of them were sad and almost made you feel like weeping, and others were just of beautiful sounds put together in a beautiful way. Every thing they played, though, was beau tiful. And sometimes they sang as they played, songs which went like this: Thr music of th* ocean la scry, very deep. It will aometlmea make you smile and aome- trmea make you weep. It will be so wild one moment you'll think it should be dropped. And then ’twill be so beautiful you'll rejoice it wasn't stopped. And another song was: • * We love to sins for Mother Oceans party. -And for ail her fcOest* so hale and hearty We love to sins for gpod old King Koam And all who over the ocean roam. • They sat down to dinner and had a delicious meal of seaweed of the tinest kind, sea moss, and many other sea vegetables and greens. They drank sea water and also had dishes of whipped cream made by King Foam’s subjects.* After the dinner was over, which, by the way, was served in green gob lets and upon sea green china. Mother Ocean said the party would continue, or perhaps we should say ^ she said it would begin! All the fairies and the sea eseature* hurried a little djstanee along from where the dinner hud been given, and (hen back they came bring ing an enormous raft with Ihem—a great big board which was float ing in the water. Then they be gan to play and to dance, and al ways upon the raft. and of course it would turn over and over again in the breakers, because everyone was try ing to get the other off! They played ball, too, while standing on top of the raft, but they never stood there very long before they were dropped off into dear old Mother Ocean's lap. They had logs which the very young er ones at the party used as floats, and there were boards all painted up iu a most beautiful fashion to tide upon over the breakers. Oh, what a game uud a frolic they had, and all dressed up in their best, too! Hut they only looked the more beautiful as they played the harder, and when It was all over how glad Mother Ocean was that she had given a party and how glad everyone also was, too! An Enormous Haft. That Settles It. W’lllle* (excitedly)—Hey. pop. os mors pl*:,ter can fall off the celling. , Ifop—I* that po: what's Ibc trouble! Willie—Well, It's all off. “Ah."
