crowd, SUCH as musical chairs, fruit
basket, dancing, etc. Start the first
game with snap and after it has
been under way little while, ring
a loud bell and tell the guests it is
time to play the next game.
Continue to interrupt the games
in this lively manner all evening.
When midnight comes, seat your
guests at a circular table, il possible
with the places marked off like the
face Of a clock, the hands pointing
to midnight. Half of the clock may
be lettered 1929, the other 1880.
For a midnight supper at home
after the dance Or theater, the fol-
lowing plan is a good one: Make
your living room look as much like
your favorite restaurant as posi-
bIe-shaded lights, small tables, IA
niliar signs, etc.
Let one man from each table act
as waiter and serve the guests from
the buffet supper, which Is set out
In the dining room. This not only
furnishes lot OF fun, but saves the
hostess lot of work.
