EASTER GAMES FOR
YOUNG AND OLD

The sewing or embroidery club. which
has spent many busy afternoons during
the cold months. may want to celebrate
Easter week with an evening party. If
so. the following game will prove appro-
pirate. 1t appeals to those who use the
needle, and Is s~eaSonable with spring,
when style is the uppermost thought of
the feminine mind. In the story of Miss
Sussana Makes Her Easter Calls there are
many words left out which must be sup
piled by ali who would complete the nar-
rativc. Tho missing words will almost
present themselves. as each blank in the
story represents some style of skirt which
has at some time been fashionable.
Each guest may be provided with a copy
Of the story, so that the inserted words
may be supplied. An easier arrangement,
however, is to have the story read aloud
and a few written copies distributed, so
that the guests may refer to them. The
missing words are then written in the
order in which they should be used, on
the backs of long narrow tally cards.
