Leprechauns Lying In Wait For 17th Tuesday, March 17, will be a busy day for leprechauns ll over the world. It will also be hectic for florists, specialty shops and stores selling. greet- ing cards, The annual ritual of which is celebrated in every country to which even one Irish- men has emigrated. A son of Erin never forgets his back- ground, they say, and fhe day is always celebrated by "all the Irish and all those who wish they were". ; The day honoring the patron Saint who rid Ireland of snakes features "the wearin' 0' the green" and "top o' the. morn- in'"' greetings -from many whose ancestry doesn't stray within ten thousand miles of the Old Sod. Many send sham- rock plants, symbolistic gifts and greeting cards to friends who are of Irish ancestry, but it is the Irish themselves who spread the warmth of the occa- sion, and it is for them that the lilting musical sentiments are inscribed in greeting cards. Typical of the feeling of the day is this sentiment from. one popular St. Pat's card: 'May the luck of the Irish, the gift of the blarney, the charm of the old Emerald Isle put a bounce jin your step, a light in your jeye, and brighten your St. Pat's |Day smile." Among the most popular de-| |Signs are the comic contempor-| ary cards. One shows Santa} O'Claus and Easter McBunny| bringing St. Patrick's Day) greeungs.

First thing to do is to select the type of quality paint you wish to use. Flat paints are pre- ferred for ceilings in all rooms except kitchen and bath, where semi - gloss enamel is recom-| mended because of its greater| resistance to moisture vapor and steam.
