E welcome Christnuss with ds-

lightlul expectancy, for it

oder-s splendid opportunities

gf,”-'” 1;_ for merry making. The very f‘,_'»f'L‘. thought of Christmas brings

-;__ with it a feeling of happiness

And a desire to share one’s pleasures with others. The Ynletide season was over a time of rejoicing. Fun, rcal genu- ine fun, counts more than anything else at the Christmas festivities.

The irst enjoyment of the Christmas

party comes when you begin to plan the entertainment. To have your akair long remembered by your guests as one of the principal events in the social cal- endar, you must plan your entertain- ment in advance. Do not continue any nf the games after your guests show a pack of enthusiasm. The games which are suggested may be available for your use and help you solve the puzzle of “What games shall we play!"

The grown-ups as well as the kiddies

will ilnd most of the games equally in-1

tersatin , and very littlo e enditure is requi§ed for these games. rp

Av e which is very excitin is

played.: follows: Three pieces ot white tape each about an ilscm wide and three yards long are had at one end by three persons. To the-tapes are at- tached little jingling bells. Three play- ers stsrt at a signal sud try to see who can ent the bells oi! in the quickest time. The dlderent winners contest un- til the champion is declared.

“Mn Jingles” is a splendid game,

all the layers except Mr. Jingles are blindfolded. Mr. Jingles is provided with a bell which gives the clue to his pursuers.= Mr. Jingles needs to be very alert to elude being captured. The one capturing Mr. Jingles changes places with him und the game continues.

' For another frolic suspend a holly wreath from the chandelier or in the doorway, and in back of the wreathi hang a cluster of sleigh bells, ullow each

player three turns to try and hit the ell with a rubber ball covered with cotton to represent a snow ball. The one most successful in ringing the bells is adjudged the prize' winner.

“A holly hunt” will prove n most

enjoyable diversion. Present each guest with n little basket and request them to search for holly loaves that are hid~ den here, there and everywhere, in all sorts of nooks and corners. As they start someone plays a lively tune, but the searchers must return to their orig- inal places as soon as the music ceases and start over again. The one dnding the greatest number of leaves within a certain time-limit may be awarded a suitable prize.

A frollcsome game is layed wiilh

snow balls. Provide a numger of ilutfy paper snow balls. Divide the company into two lines facing each other. At the end of each line is a pile of show balls, when the signal is given each side

begins passing them down the line one at a time. here are many interrup- ' tions as the balls are likely to fall to

the ground. The stale wins which has all t e balls piled up at the end of the

Children love puzzle games, so why

reward.

Dress s doll to represent Santa Claus.

Santa Claus should have a cotton beard and wig and wear f peaked cap. Pro- vide four soft rubber balls and see

turn; the one most successful is ac- kaowled ed the winner.

A speiing match is by no means I.

new game but it usually provides genu- ine fun. Every one can spell, but every one cannot s ellf backwards correctly. Prepare in advance s list of wordsgin some way connected with Christmas, hen have an old fashioned spell down

and which is apps-s__ziate for this os- casion is the fol owing: Have prepared a number of slips of paper correspond- ing to the number of guests present. On each slip write the name of some object, such ns a tree, St. Nick, rein- deer, etc., or all can work on the same object. From the kindergarten depart- ment of some store may he procured clay. Divide the clay into small por- tions and allow each individual o. stated time to model the object designated. When all have been completed, display the artistic edorts so that n vote may be taken as to which is the best speci- men.

A bean bag game which requires little re aration is another good suggestion. hinge the bean bags of red or green denim and sew jingling bells att each corner, suspend o hoop wound with holly from the chandelier. This con- test consists of seeing who can throw the most bags through the hoop in a three-minute time limit.

Noted people is n diversion which may

suit your fancy. Cut out of magazines or newspapers, pictures of famous men and women. .Provide each guest with paper and pencil. The papers should

be numbered to correspond with num- bers on the pictures. isploy tho pic- tures conspicuously about the room and announce that twenty minutes will‘be allowed for the players to guess the persons represented by the pictures. At the 'end of the time limit each guest passes his paper to his nearest neighbor for correction, while the correct list is

lin" 5"” read aloud.

For a.n"0bservation Party, place dif-

not try t is one. Give each one an en- ferent objects connected with the Yule-

tide season on the table. Each guest upon entering the room is allowed just a moment to observe the diderent articles. The guests than adjourn to another room and write down ns many as they can remember. The correct list

ment of t egame if the contestants are is read aloud and the one having tho

greatest number of articles listed rc-

celvcs n prize.

The following answers are all to be

p found in tho word Christmas. You can add as many other-words as you desire to the list. Provide paper and pencil and seo who can compile the most cor- rect list.

Another diverting amusement is

“Blowing the Candle.” A lighted candle is placed upon a table. Eacn player standing about o foot away from the candle, is blindfolded in turn; the player stands with his back tow `\s the candle and takes three stops f\ ~ ward and turns around twice and vb’ tries to blow the candle out. 'slice successful in extinguishing the _ dia may be assured that their wishes 5211.5. be fulnlled.

“Snap Dragon” is a time honored

game. Place a number of raisins in a bowl, place alcohol over them and light. Each one in turn tries to draw the raisins out one by one without burning the fingers. The one rnost' successful.

surely deserves o. reward of merit.

There is always ri bit of mistletoe in

evidence at Christmas time, so why not make use of it in tho following manner: Hang a large piece ol' mistletoe from the chandelier ‘by means of scarlet rib- bon. Requsst the guests to guess the number of berries on the branch. Of course the one guessing nearest the right

number is tho prize winner. ,
