kept throughout the evening. Then. again, II Is
more social because each couple must in the course
OF the evening meet with and play every other

couples than there are hands played. but as 1t ls

To play drive whist the host or hostess must pro-
cure score cards in SUFFICIENT number SO as to pro-
vide each couple with one. These score cards are
cord and give space at the top for the ladys name
and address, and opposite the gentlemans name
whose partner she is. Below, the card Is ruled in
spaces so that there is one column for points
another for points lost, and third for the names Of
your opponents. The manner of choosing partners
for the evening IL left to the Ingenuity OF the nostess,
ana different ways are adopted. one is to write the
genilemens names on the score cards (one name on
each card> and then let the ladies' draw one card
each. When partners are once selected they are
kept throughout the evening. The cards are dealt
and one hand is played. AT the end one couple at
each table has won number OF points and the other
couple has lost. The gentlemen then make record,
each on his own card, OF the points won or lost with
the names OF theother couple. heosipg couples at
the tables then change places, each going TO the
next table, and the losing couple at the head table
going to the vacant place al the foot. Another hand
is dealt and played, another record made, another
change Of position follows, and the game goes on
At the close of the game, when the number OF hands
previously decided upon have been played, each
couple adds together all the points won and all lost
and then determines the difference. The couple
that has won the greatest number OF points Is en-
titled 10 the head prize, and the couple that has lost
the greatest number OF points gets the foot prize
The prizes are provided by the host or hostess II

given to the ladies at the completion of the game.
