IZ3XXIIIIIIIIIIIIIZLLILSIZ2IIIIIZIRIIZZIZIIZIIIZLL For the Thanksgiving Character Party. A hostess noted for her clever and original entertainments has let me into her confidence, and I hasten to tell of a party that she is planning for Thanksgiving week, when & num- ber of young people will be heme. She is golng to ask each of her twenty guests to come wearing an article'to represent a character famous in Amer- fcan history. Then she is going to pass slips of paper with this question: “Who is your favorite character in American history, and why?" The cards will be collected and the answers read aloud by the hostess, who will award a prize to the one wio is voted to have the best answer, Next, pictures of twenty famous Americans will be displayed and & prize given to the one who guesses correctly the greatest number. Then will come “historical questions,” the queries being typewritten and num- bered. A lively discussion will follow the last question, and the hostess will take advantage of the situation and put the finishing touches to her re- treshments, which will consist of a regular New England spread, baked beans in individual little brown pots, Saratoga chips, brown bread, cheese, pickles, cold slaw and apple tarts with coffee, tea and chocolate. Following are the historical questions: 1. Who would rather be right than presi- dent? 2, Who crossed the Delaware on Christ- mas night? 3. Who won the battle of Brandywine? 4. With whom did Massasoit dine? §. Who saved Capt. John Smith's head? 6. To whom was Pocahontas wed? 7. Which first of Columbus’ ships found land? 8. Who of the Chesapeake had com- mand? 9. Who said “I'll try, sir,” at Lundy's Lane? 10. Who told us to ‘“Remember the Maine? 11. Who was it ran at Quebec's fall? 12, Where first was Jackson called “Stonewall?"* 13. Who saw the Missisippl roll? 14. Who discovered the nprth pole? 1. Henry Clay. 2. Washington. 3. The British. 4. Governor Bradford. §. Poca- hontas. 6. John Rolfe. 7. The Pinta. 8.

Select one of rather long shape, cut in half lengthwise and bollow out to look llke an old-time vessel (look at a print of the May- flower); put in gilded masts and if possible make salls of a scrap of white silk.

Before putting the fruits in the pumpkin line it carefully with waxed paper. A tableplece that children love is made by having several small Indian tepees with miniature Indians; sur- round with alternate red and white ears of corn, making the outline of a star. At toy shops small animals such as deer, dogs, chickens and turkeys may be found to add to this scene, and figures of John Alden and Priscilia could be added. A Thanks Day Guessing Game, Write the questions on turkey-dec- orated cards and pass after dinner or at the table with the dessert course. A member of the family who is good at riddling may improvise more ques- tions along these lines: What domestic fowl was first seen by the Pllgrims landing in 1620? Plymouth Rock, What colonist had the longest Chris- tlan name? Miles Standish. How do we know the early colonists were bicycle enthusiasts? 8o many spin- ning wheels were seen. What bewlldering thing did the colo- nists discover soon after landing? Malze (mage). From what heavy, durable stuff did the Pligrims come to the new world? Holland, What human being did the Pligrims first seo that is now a part of the United States? Indian (territory). MADAME MERRI. Stripes will be retained. Old gold is still one of the popular colors for afternoon. The jumper design has been furious- ly revived for dressy shirtwaists. The vogue for black and white al- llances shows but little abatement. Collarettes of black or white tulle are used to wear with afternoon gowns. Extensive use is made of all kinds of laces, and even lace robes are com- ing to the front. Blue and white combinations are to have a place in fashion, especially in wash fabrics. AAAAPAAPAAAPNAANNANAPNANNAPIINI Gold Medal Contest Monday Night.
