red cardboard as many hearts, about
six inches across, as you Will have
pairs Of guests. Then, with sharp
shears, cut each Of these into many
small pieces, square, crescent shaped,
wedge shaped, and so on, keeping the
pieces of each heart separate from
the others by putting them into an
envelope.
Now, from different colored papers
nut small hearts, two of each, and put
them into two bowls. The payers

one bowl, the boys from another, and
he boys then find their partners in
the girls who have hearts matching

fun. Get a sheet of heavy cardboard,
twenty-five or thirty inches square,
and draw on II as large a heart as

and cover 1t with white muslin to

Around the edge of the heart paint

Having prepared as many arrows as
