moth cherries made Of red tissue paper
are to be pasted back OF six inch cir

be a cherry for each maiden's face.
Upon the arrival OF the guests the
girls are TO disappear behind the cur
tain, and each one is to place her face
opposite a tissue paper covered OPEN
ing The men OF the party will then be
given little hatchets and told TO choose
a cherry. They win each break through
the paper and find a smiling face. As
the cherries are broken the girls come
from behind the curtain. each joins the
man who has chosen her. and he pre-
sents her with a bunch OF artificial
cherries tied with red ribbon. This is
