CUPID HERE TO STAY -- The cherubic archer of tum-of-the-century greeting card (left) is an inspiration for a well- known greeting card company's valentine (right). "Sentimental valentines are right for communicating emotions that we think of as dating back to the beginning of time/' says Mary Ann Corrigan, product manager for the company. "They let people express feelings they might not be able to say in person." For example, the versing in the 1984 valentine is: "Cupid, with his magic darts, plants sweet thoughts in willing hearts-thoughts of love and happy sharing, new togetherness and caring." Old-fashioned cards seldom carried a verse. Research shows that men usually select the most extravagant valentines, choosing cards with traditional artwork and romantic versing.

They are Marylou Schaefer, Karen Thennes, Marian Hauri, Bernie Poczekaj, Karen Stevenson and Karen Putnam. The ceremony was presided over by Char Dunn, District IV Director.
