On the card are as many pin pricks as
there are letters in his name. So for

fun; or to choose partners, pin prick
the number of letters in the girls
names, and let the boys find their
partners.

This will look like a series of hearts.
Fasten the target against the wall and
give each guest a fate" card.
When the arrows are shot the color
upon which they hit determines the
fate of the shooter. The bows and ar
rows may be purchased at a toy store,
or one bow and a half a dozen arrows
may be made at home and will answer
instead of one for each person.
When the arrow strikes the green
heart, the fate" card indicates that:
Love and riches wait, | ween,
Him or her who hits the green"
Should your arrow pierce the blue,
Love Is on the wing for you"
"She who passes olors all
Has lovers many at her CALL"
