AND INTERESTS
x TREASURE PARTY
A Unique Entertainment Afforded in a
Simple, inexpensive Manner


At a treasure party, each guest was
asked to bring the thing she priced
most, on the invitations being written
this quotation from "Rebecca:"
ITS the dear thing in the world to
me. but it's an awful care"
When the guests arrived each was
asked TO give her treasure TO the hostess
before the others saw IL. Each treasure
was then numbered and displayed On a
table. The guests were given numbered
lists and asked to guess to whom each
treasure belonged.
After the contest each guest took her
own treasure and told why she priced IT,.
The collection was a most varied and
amusing one. One guest brought her
only piece of real lace and told how
many times and in how many different
capacities she had worn it-as collar,
!abot, on hats, on canes, to weddings,
parties. church. She described X as
her hall mark of gentility. Another
brought a pair OF bead bracelets, over
100 years old, made by n dear grand
mother. One brought a china dog-a
relic Of childhood's days. One brought
a much-indented silver spoon on which
all her children had cut their teeth.
One caused much laughter by bringing
the waist of the dress she wore when
her husband proposed 70 her. Another
brought a button cut of the coat worn
by her husband to the picnic where first
they met A diamond ring, which one
showed as her treasure, brought out the
story OF how foolish everyone had de-
clared the grandmother gift to a young
bride starting out with her httle means.
But the diamond ring had proved a
great blessing TO her and had kept the
wolf from the door many times when the
young couple was struggling TO get
