sona1ly. SO I might give you the infor-
nation regarding ysur freckles. but the

claimed" SO now II yos did not give
your correct name and address, please

There Doesn't seem to be much to say
when ysu are asdreSsed thusly, except
possibly. why notr or DID you think
that was what I was doingr' OF some
thing similar. 1t doesn't seem TO call
for nueh of an answer. Hope you will
never have any worse troubles than

Dear Miss Brssks:
1 am truly grateful TO ysu. and also
the KIND Utah reader for sending me
the poem UnawRrss." see I sent the
wrong title, but II IL the very poem I
have been trying fer several years to
get. VIII ysu please tell me q good
game to play at house parties. wish
ing yos much success IN yssr good
work. am.
A g.. Moore. Idaho.
/ am so glad you enjoyed the poem,
A. B.. and ! am sure the one who sent
II will be made happy when she reads
how long you have been trying to get
it. You do not say for what age or how
large party SO ! will try to give one
for young people and one for grown
ups. For the elders we will call 1t "A
Baby Party" When inviting your
friends. request them to bring with |
them their baby photograph or the ear |
lest one they have. Collect them as
the guests arrive, number them and |
give each guest u sheet Of paper with |
numbers corresponding to the numbers
on the photograph. Display them in
a convenient place so all may scrutinize
carefully and they are then requested
to write the name of the owner of each
A prize may be offered for
the greatest number of correct guesses.
The same idea may be used to arrange
partners for refreshments. Let the
men select u photograph from n basket
where they are turned face down. He
then proceeds to ind the owner. For
the younger ones let 1t be the follow
ing: Arrange the players according to
size. the largest first. Each stands with
mis- or her hands on the shoulders of the
person ahead. the smallest player last.
The largest player then attempts to
catch the smallest one. This the others
endeavor to prevent by twisting and
turning in such q way as to keep the
end farthest from the pursuer. 1 hope
this will help you. and am sorry to keep
you waiting So long. Always enclose
full name and address. which will in
sure n more prompt reply than through
the paper. as SO few can appear each
week. A stamped envelope should also
accompany ysur letter for detailed in
formation of this nature.
