Thanksgiving Day.
For a group of people of forty years

quently made very enjoyable. TO get
the fun into swing 1t is only necessary
to pass around the room a basket con-
tanning folded slips of paper on which
such questions as those given below
are written:
What was the occasion of the iolliest
time you ever had?
What was the most thrilling adven-
ture sou ever had?
Who is or was the most interesting
person You ever met?
What Is the best true story you ever
heard?
What is the least explicable occur
teatr NbH ever heard of or experienced ?
What was the happiest hour of your
lifey.
What was the greatest Pleasure of
your childhood:
Each guest draws one of the folded
slips. Ten minutes is allowed for re-
lection during which all players think
up the answer TO their questions. The
person drawing the slips marked then
gives his experience. When this has
been laughed over or otherwise en-
joyed the person holding the slip
marked then relates, and so on. 1t
makes most enjoyable little pastime
and will lead to many exchanges of
pleasant "reminiscences. The hostess
will. of course, avoid any question
which could evoke unpleasant or sor-
rowful memories

which the soldiers of this little ma

battle fields. These have told OF ter

that the Bulgar Is master Of the

HOW TO MAKE YOUR
WINTER TAILOR MADE.


WINTER TAILOR MADE.
A charming winter suit is In
one of the newest heavy whip
cords of greenish yellow
shade. The anticipated unbe-
comingness of such a color is re-
deemed by a waistcoat of white
cloth, with collar and revers
of tailless ermine. The arrange
ment of the striped fabric-both
vertical and crosswise-produces
excellent results in cline" The
sides and back of both skirt and
coat are cut lengthways, while
the belt across the front of the
coat and the center panel of the
skirt show the horizontal stripe.
The sleeves are treated in the
same way, while the stripes
which pass round the arm are
continued till they meet the bell
cuff, where the stripe is reyers-
ed. The buttons used are of a
light shade of tortoise shell. With ,
this costume is worn hat in a
tone of yellow green beaver,
trimmed with a fanciful white
mount
There is no doubt that the
tendency pursued by real tailor
coats is to keep the high waist, ,
although a slightly longer waist
line is suggested in the more
elaborate cutaway coats of vel
vet and silk.
But such fabrics are not TO be
commended for country pursuits.
and one gladly welcomes coy
ratines and pilot cloths in addi- I
ton to many new varieties of
striped tweeds and suitings. A
coarse blue serge trimmed with
black brassA makes an admirable
standby" for all occasions. A
magenta colored velvet waist
coat with a relieving note of ,
weird embroidery gives novel
tone to this world beloved fab I
ric.
