Gathering
A valentine party should feature,
literally. the world's most. popular
game—the game 0: hearts.
If you've plenty of room, here's a
good contest to try:
On one wall arrange a. sheet or
large piece of white cardboard. On
it, make a. target: of red and white
hearts, graduated in size and alter-
natlng in color until the center one
is very small. -
Number the dlflerent hearts. say
10. 20. 30. 40 and 100. the latter num-
ber being the one for the center
heart—the 10 for the outside.
Give every guest a bow and arrow
and let each one have the same num-
ber of chances.
The highest score takes the prize.
Beware” Stray snout
This is great fun, played by blind-
folded marksman. but the other
guests should-be careful to keep t-e-l
hind him. as he ‘can't be held en-
tirely responsible for his aim.
Cupid's Viell is a good stunt:
In a darkened corner have erected
a. mound. to carry the idea. of a well.
presided over by the Queen of
Hearts. -
Blindfolded, each guest reaches his
arm into the well and receives a.
sealed package in which his future is
