HOW to Eptertain a Christmas Party for
Chi;dren-Fun for the Little Felix's
For large Christmas party for children IL
is occasionally pleasant to vary the pro
gramme with something othsr tha, the time
honored Christmas tree A"ChristEaas cave
has proved a very successful diversion, aud
the lady who contrived IL for chiid's CArist-
mas party last year gives the particulars OK
carrying il ont as follows:
Everything was done ~ home. We maap
n good sized arbor Of b~nt bouehs and twigs
at one end OF our largest reception room Al q
little distance from the wall. We stuffed IN
cotton wool among the foliage, and glued
pieces on TO tho twigs and leaves sprinkling
plentifuliy with gum and powdered ahIm-
INSIDE we laid down moss on brown paper.
and IN the center NO heaped up the prcssnts
ALI previously neatly lnhe4sd, but not
wrapped In paper. Over all ws threw q GOV
ering of white muslin, covered profaseiy with
cotton, wool and alum. The bower Wa large
enough for two or three children to Stand up
right in. We dressed n clever iitsle girl =
show fairy in a close fitting suit Of cotton
wool over muslin, vita large gathering net
wings tInade over wire ard a pointed white
cap with q bunch OF heNv.
The children we're frst told to examine tho
cave, which they did, cautiously, but they
saw nothing but heapof white "snow" In tho
middle, the snow fairy being beneath she COW
ering with the presents. They were tssn all
told 10 join hands and dance round the cave,
singing As they went, to waken the snow
fairy. Suddenly there was . shout, the COW
erlid was lifted, and up sprang tbs ii,tls In
mate Of the cave. Almo~t every child scut-
tied away IN par,c, but soon returned,
laughing heartily. One Of the elders, told OF
for the purpose, addressed the Know fairy,
and after mach parkying IL was announced
that she had got present for every one. As
each present was taken mp by bsr from under
the coverhd, which remained over the pres
ents, and the NAME called cut, the little owner
came up aud claimed IT, IL ~eai done, tAis
Christmas cave nHd fairy prodscs great fun
and also great excitement The cave was
lighted by colore6 lamps With night LIGHTS In
them, and the lights in the room wrre tarned
down at first } add 10 the wWrdness Of thu
scene, but Afterwards turned up again. A
little boy would do - veil for the sif hs is
