Gift Wrapping Stunt
VIII Add to the Fun
At Christmas Parties
By Katherine H0uison.

IF YOU'RE planning q Christmas
tree for your club or a class party,
here's an idea thatll help along the
good time immensely.
Choose your gifts according to your
funds, one for every one. Then wrap
them so no one can tell what they
are. Attach q small card containing
"clue" to what's in the package
for instance, a mirror wrapped in a
large, awkward looking bundle could
carry q gift tag saying, "A place for
reflection" Or label a box of Is choc-
olates Sweet sixteen" A box of nuts
could be Welcome foreigners" can
dlesticks might be Light keepers"
and q handkerchief "A much-used
square" You'll think of dozens of
ideas yourselves.
Decorate the tree with the bright
colored packages, and when the festive
night arrives, remove the gifts one at
time and read the tags aloud. The
first to guess the contents correctly
receives the gift.
And when you plan refreshments
here's . list that will help you decide
the quantities you'll need:

The most popular of these paddle
games is known as hill" 1t is
made by attaching small, soft rub

rubber string. Cut the rubber string
from an old inner tube, or use IL

the center of the paddle. When you
bat the ball the rubber string stretches
and then snaps the ball backward so
you can hit it again.

1t is with paddles of this sort that
table tennis, popularity known as

play base ball with these paddles,
using a small ball and running bases
that are set not very far apart.

be 3 months old in the Spring. The
demand for pups At that season u

Don't bathe your dog in Winter un-
less you can keep him in a warm
place for "a to 48 hours afterward. He
may catch cold.
Pigeons ought to have some salt now
and then.
Buy book about the breed to which
your dog belongs. 1t will help you
tremendously. II he's just . mutt.
get a general dog book.
If you have not had considerable
experience and success with treating
the diseases of pets. you'd better fint

deliberately shifted Ken's bag from its

jumped to one side, barely keeping
the heavy bag from dropping on his

With lowered head he trudged along
the road, carrying the bag painfully.
Marjory rode on for while, but
finally she relented.
"All right" she said resignedly.
"Give me the bag"
He passed 1t up to her and she al
most changed her mind when she saw
the twinkle in his eye.
1t was fully dark by the time they
reached the inn. and Ken was begin

for they were talking busily. All
thought of the car that had stopped
to inquire the way had been banished
from their minds and 1t was with a
shock that Marjory saw it parked be-

building.

Divide the group Of players into two
equal numbers and let the captain of

team will be the defenders and which
will be the raiders. The defenders
choose fort. which should be located
on the top of hill if possible.
The raiders must leave the terri
tory around the fort and not attack
1t for at least 10 minutes Each one
Of the defenders must have a piece of
chalk and penny toy balloon, blown
up, and fastened on him somewhere.
When everything has been prepared,
one boy. who is to act as referee, gives
a signal by blowing a whistle. Then
the fight may start. The raiders try
to break the balloons on the Defend

from being chalk-marked over the
