party for which there are prizes for
the winners. An amusing ono is
! called Blind Fortune. Three apples

blind folded and turned around
three t;mcs, then sent forward, one
al a time, with the right hand
raised to grasp an apple. If. the
guests arc children tooth picks Of
different lengths are inserted in the
apples and prize given to the
winner of the longest stick.
The time honorcd custom of bob
bing for apples at Hallowc EN-
party is out of the question for
many of us who live in modern
apartments. for where could one
fmd an old fashion wooden wash

stunt is to place two anples on
opposite sides of kitchen chair.
Two contestants, their hands tied
behind their backs. kneeI beside
the chair and try to eat the entire
apple.

one after another places his letters
in bowl of water and gives the
water one vigorous stir. When the
water has become still the hostess
will read the future from the group
ing of the letters. She may use her
imagination as far as she likes by
telling the initials of the future
mate and other important events
to come.
