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
velope contuininn" n picture of St. Nick
cut in sections. The one first complet-
ing the original picture is the one to
whom the prize should be awarded. No
matter how triiling a prize may be it
always adds to the interest and excite-
told in n. vnnce that there is to be o-
l
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.

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. ,

Here is another pastime: Hove ll

some charcoal and soo who can draw

using the left hand only. Each player
has tho privilege to choose tho next ons,
who usually is the one who has laughed
most hilariously over the other’s efforts.
‘Suspend xi toothpick by u string in

cherry in their mouth. As soon as one
