A hostess often finds difficulty In en-

a novel way to spend an evening
which will afford amusement to old
and young.
In sending out invitations request
each guest to come with the right

be excepted. When the hostess greets
them she extends her left hand and
begs them to write their names in a
blank book on her desk. The page
will soon have an appearance Of a 3
