THE SOCIAL
GAME
BY Beatrice Fairfax

n ECENTLY a great number OF
X. young girls have written to
me asking for suggestions
about entertaining their callers.
1t doesn't sound like a very serious
problem to us grow-ups. But
memory recalls a picture of myself
at sixteen sitting stiffly across a
big old-fashioned living room try
ing to say something to the boy who
had come to show me the medal he
had won at a recent track meet.
So I know that eager. terrified
youth is likely to defeat itself
through its own Ignorance of the
social charm and friendliness that
seems SO, much part of our very
selves to>Gs grown-ups.
And there lies the whole art of
entertaining.
It's not hard to play little de-
tective game. It's not difficult for
a sympathetic girl who will stop
thinking about herself to find out
something about a boys interests.
II she can't do II by some simple
method Of deduction, she can frankly
tell her visitor about something that
interests her. and then as frankly
ask II he has n fad or a particular
interest.
Athletics, the motion pictures, the
things that are going on In the out
side world. work, any general topic
is likely to prove field for particu-
lar interest.
A girl who can play and sing may
either do bit of entertaining on her
own part. or persuade her young
caller to join in singing. Nothing
helns folks get together better than
singing some of the pretty old bal
lads most of US know. Singing is
such a natural expression of feeling
that 1t removes all stiffness from
gatherings. Music and rhythm are
natural and primitive. Almost all of
us have a love for song in common.
The girl who really wants to be
entertaining will make II her bust
ness to stop thinking about herself
and the impression she Is making
and try TO find out what her visitor
In interested in, what will prove Tho
key to his thoughts.
II can be done. And the girl who
does 1t need never fear that she's n
bore. For the bore il always the
person who talks about herself when
the other person longs for a chance
to hold forth about what appeals u
him. 'is
Don't ."show off" young hostess,
But give your caller n chance to
shine.

They were on the crest of a hfn
by this time, and they stopped in

back at them, dwelling the somber
green slopes with fire.
In the distance were the shoulder

the softening light. The wind that
blew against their faces was cold.
but in its mellow chilliness was a
lost promise of spring, a whisper
of sternness relaxed. a prophesy of
birth mysterious in its very remote
