and suggestive. No names were
mentioned, the eleven guests being
spoken of by numbers, the owner of
each number being known to the
committee only; but the conscious
chances exchanged and the subdued
giggles passed around as they lis
tened, indicated that the young peo-
pie realized the personality of the
whole matter.
Some of the departures from cor
rect form / remember. One little
girl had repeatedly passed in front
of others, when there was no neces-
sity for it. One on being asked for
her fan had replied: "You can't have
it; / want it myself One had
helped herself to cake before it was
passed. Another had taken a second
piece of cake without invitation.
One had repeatedly interrupted con
versation. Two had disputed We
hemently, even descending to the
calling each other by somewhat hard
names. Two had boosted of their
houses and their fathers horses. Two
had been heard to criticize unkind-
ly an absent friend. In short, not
one of the number but had made
some marked slip in conduct; and
the vote was unanimous, that the
box cf choice bon-bons, since it
clearly by right belonged to none of
them, should be divided among them.
/ fancy that one young girl voiced
the thought of all present when she
said: ct was great fun, anyhow, and
we have learned a lot about behav-
haven't we?" Then she added
this significant thought: 81 don't
believe real truly young ladies would /
do much better at their parties, if
they had a committee, and a secre-
tary, and a report. Perhaps they |
don't know how many rude things
they do"
Some little girls are going to try
next week for a Sunshine Cen
tertainment" or party, and are to
charge a small sum for the refresh
ments served to the audience, and
pay a small fine for their slips in be-
havior; they are not fined, as their
names are not read, but each little
girl knows as the criticism is read,
if it is she, and so voluntarily, in a
true sunshiney way, marches up and
pays her fine of one cent. All the
proceeds are to be sent to Sunshine
headquarters for the "pass it on"
stamp fund. Why can't you try it?

MRS. RANSIER'S LETTER.
Miscellaneous Sunny Suggestions From
Sunshine Headquarters.

Good evening, friends! Glad to
coo youl C~ome-right in; make your
selves freely, fully at home; move up
here. take the rocker; fix yourselves
comfortably in the coy corner, with
the pillows to your back; now, we'll
have a good old chatter.
Mrs. Mary Z. w. writes: "Our
Young folks. especially little girls,
are having a series of small gather
incs or parties in the neighborhood,
and we get puzzled for ways and
means of entertaining them (inex-
pensive onesl. Can you not tell US
some way of interesting them that
shall also be of future beneft"
Why, yes. At least / can tell you
something / have Just been reading;
having no little girls of my own, only
the great army of dear little Sun
beam girls in our State, | can't speak
from my very own experience; but a
friend of mine tried it and said it
worked fine. giving the little girls
some fun and giving the children OPP
p%ortunity for Improvement by aping
their elders in dress and manners.
So listen:
Eleven little girls were once in
vited to a fancy dress party; a
"grown-up fve-o'clock tea" SO the
invitations read.
Each guest was to borrow her
mothers, or her auntie's, or her
grown-up sisters dress for the oc-
casion. and was to wear her hair
done in the prevailing "grown up"
style.
Throughout the hours of the re-
certiOn, that is from four to seven
o'clock, each young maiden was to
conduct herself in conversation and
ANN as much like a cultivated
young woman as her knowledge and
former opportunities would admit.
