And it is no ex- ageration to say that the child who is not convinced that his own birth- day is thé pleasantest most gladsome day in all the year has really nev- er been given a proper birthday. Re- member, -in planning the next birth: day party or surprise that this 'one day, in all the 865, is the child's very. own---a day to be spent as the child--not as we grownups think a birthday should be spent. So if the child wants a party give him 'a party; if he likes picnics more than parties, | mess, let the birthday surprise be a | trip to the sea or lake shore. While you are planning what sort of birthday will make the child hap-, piest, do not forget that the great source of birthday joy comes in the element of complete surprise, and the greatest secrecy should be | maintained with regard to the pre- | parations for the birthday doings, 50 that nothing can detract--not {even the joy of anficipation--from { the real birthday happiness. { In planning the birthday surpris-, es do not make the mistake of giv- {ing the child too much at once, but | shoe in the morning to a last token {tucked under his pillow at night. epreading the joy of surprises out.
