 T^HUS runs an old jingle; so, by all means, 
 add liayberry c-andles to your Christmas 
 decorations. 
 
 For real illumination, however, stronger 
 lights must lie used and ajjpropriate shades 
 for lam])s, trims for ceiling lights an< 
 screens for side lights should he in- 
 cluded in your plans. 
 
 Lamp shades, like the effective shade 
 on page 2, are made over a wire

 The d e c o r a t i o n of

 settias shown on this page 
 is very attractive for the 
 hall drop light. (See Jiage

 Arches and doorways are 
 natural decorating points. 
 A clever use of Green 
 Streamers No. ■i, G 6 and 
 red poinsettias is shown 
 here. They blend well with 
 the festoon, wreath and 
 liell decoration already in 
 place.

 Dennison's small festoons in bright

 cut-out bells, stars and poinsettias, 
 decorative tags, cornucopias and 
 stockings may be readily affixed, also 
 pop-corn balls (wrapped in paraffine 
 and varied-colored crepe papers). 
 
 For indirect lights nothing could i 
 be more effective than the decoration 
 of white festoon balls above. (See 
 page 1.5.) These are hung by Red 
 Streamers No. 1 from rods placed 
 across the top of the bowl. 
 
 Use banners, posters and more 
 banners for large wall spaces. Plain

 The tree will be easy. How abovit your decorations? The vestry 
 above is a suggestion. One end of each t\Visted festoon is fastened to

 luinuiier, lacks, pins, glue, [laslc and wire. Work lor cll'ccl. Finish tlu' 
 general decoration. Then, if time permits, give fine touches. Drive tacks in 
 only half way. They will hoiil ami come out easier. Use wire for attaching 
 ilecuratiuns where possible. Two twists will hold when a string will sli|). Use 
 gummed cloth tape for l)uildiiig mat stock forms and for fastening wire 
 reinforcements. 
 
 (_'iepe j)ai>^'r is almost always stretched a little hcfore 
 using. This should be don(»*bv two people, one at either 
 end of tlie paper. First double the end o\er once or twice, 
 or, better still, roll it over a ruler or stick so that it will 
 not tear and then i)ull steadily until it is siitliciently 
 stretclu'd. 
 
 To Cut a Strip of Plain Crepe Paper .Straight, sli[) it

 EVE 
 
 Cheery firelight, candles in the u-indoir.i duel n trrn 
 to be trimmed, all are exjieHed on Christmas Ere 
 
 SO what time more appropriate for a Fireliglit Party that shall emborly 
 all of these features? Write invitations on the backs of Candle Cut-outsXo. 
 43f) anrl enclose in a red paper envelope. Place lighted candles in all the front 
 winilows of the house. This is a custom followed on Christmas Eve in many 
 communities and special forms for holding the candles may be purchased. 
 
 Trimming lite Christtiia.s- Tree 
 
 For the first game, designate certain girls to act as trees. Place upu[i Iheni green 
 paper slip-ons. Divide the remaining guests intu groups and ask each group to trim a 
 tree in a giN'en lime with the materials reeei\'ed. 
 Each box of materials should contain: 
 
 i folds of Gr(.'(^n Cri^jw P<iper Xn. 46 ^ Green Festoons .\o. HG 
 1 piece of White Crepe Paper No. 11 1 Red Festoon No. 181

 Silver lametta and an assortment of cut-out tags, stars, hells, Santas, strini:. 
 paste, pms, wire and a pair of scissors. 
 
 Good prizes for winning grotip would be tiny chocolate trees. 
 
 A Candlelight Salad 
 
 would be most appropriate for this party. For the candle- 
 holder, use a slice of pineapple; for the candle, an upright 
 half of a banana; for the hame, a cherry on top of the 
 banana. Salad dressing will serve for the melted wax. 
 
 At the close of the evening, invite all guests to gather 
 around the fire. Turn out the lights and light a row of can- 
 dles on the hearth. Burn driftwood or scatter on the wood 
 "Driftwood Blaze." ,\sk each guest to repeat a well-known 
 Christmas jingle or rhyme, including, of course, the classic 
 *"Twas the Night before C^Thristmas." It will be interesting 
 to tell them that last year was the one hundredth anniver-

 centerpieces, nut cups and place cards. Horse shoe or 
 "Good Luck" designs are also in favor. 
 
 Party caps are invariably furnished and worn. In New 
 York last year these took the form of very small bonnets 
 and hats, which perched high upon the head in a ludicrous 
 manner. Confetti wands, decorated horns, blowers, 
 whistles, clappers, harmonicas and cry-babies 
 are as popular as ever. X5fe

 The Significance of Twelfth Night 
 
 T^^ ELFTH Night is the night of January (i, twelve days after Christmas. 
 Originally it was a religious festival eommemorating the visit of the three 
 kings to Bethlehem. Later it became a popular holiday, especially in Eng- 
 land. Old English customs, games and characters, special cakes, the choosing 
 of a king and queen and the burning of Christmas greens are distinctive 
 features associated with the observance of Twelfth Night. 
 
 The Twelfth Mghi Cabaret 
 This is a particularly good night for a cabaret. The decorations of Christmas green 
 and red, already placed, are perfectly correct but may be enriched by the addition 
 of pictorial banners and old lantern light shades. Paper table covers may be used on 
 the small tables and a Jester Jack Horner Pie ("niade over a pan) may represent the 
 traditional cake. .\ party cap for each guest should be concealed in this pie. The follow- 
 ing program is suggested: 
 k rC?l '^* ^ signal, all pull Ttbbons from pie, put on caps 
 
 ■•. H—J ^^'^ dance. Next, only kings and queens dance (i.e., those 
 
 J^T finding crowns in pie). 4 jester, dancing, taps here and 
 
 ':>. there a couple, who drop out until only one is left. This 
 
 ^^^V couple is proclaimed king and queen of the evening, 
 
 Hl^^W robed appropriately (in paper) and seated on a throne to 
 I m'»l\ view the masked dance. JIasks made on the crowns of 
 I ™ »* buckram hat frames are new, practical and funny. 
 
 I ^K ■■ -\ppropriate refrs'shments are Scotch shortbread, 
 
 I Mil oatmeal cakes, old-fashioned jumbles and real 'Eng-

 Form phiycrs into two parallel lines, facing friint. an cqn.al nnmhcr in each line. 
 .\t the opposite cud of the room place ujion a chair ai basket containing crepe jjaper 
 sr^owballs. 
 
 The leader of each line holds a large tablespoon in his right haink. the left one is 
 held back of him. At the word "Go" he walks as rapidly as possible to the basket, 
 picks up a snowball with the spoon and returns to his line without dro])|)ing the snow- 
 ball. When he reaches the next one in line he hands hiin the spoon, keeps the sn()\vl)all 
 iiimself, runs to the end of the line and calls "Go" which is the signal for the next 
 one to start in a like manner, and so the game continues until the leader returns to 
 first place. 
 
 If the snowball drops from the spoon it can be recovered only with the aiil of the 
 right foot.

(^af?ies fo?' ^Tsfew Years 
 
 Games irhich rcrinr the ohi year and nnlicipiile the 
 netv seem to be moxt. popular on Nem Year's Eve 
 
 A Fashion Review 
 
 ASK each girl to %Yrite a desoriptioii of some gown and hat she has worn 
 -L\. the past year. Shuffle the papers and give one to each man to read. I-et 
 the reader have first gness. and, if he is unable, allow the others to identify 
 the girl to whom the clothes belong. 
 
 Fortunes for the Neir Year 
 
 Bring in a large cake covered with frosting and bearing lighted candles of 
 different colors. Cut the cake and ask each girl to blow out a candle. When she 
 
 <loes, give her the piece of cake hearing 
 the candle she has blown out. The color 
 of the candle determines her fate for the 
 next year, as follows : 
 
 "Happy tllee, with candle blue 
 And your sweetheart, loyal, true." 
 
 "If a white candle falls to thee, 
 A spin.sler thou art doomed to be." 
 
 'Tf thou shoijd.st choose a candle pink 
 Both joy and sorrow thou shalt drink." 
 
 "Be careful if your candle's yellow 
 You'll surely wed a jealous fellow." 
 
 "Alas! yfifl chose a candle red, 
 This year, perhaps, you're doomed to wed." 
 
 "You're lucky if your candle's green. 
 For life and loye will prove serene." 
 
 
 The Follies 
 
 Let each man tell the most foolish thing he has done in the past year. Let the girls 
 vote as to which man was the most foolish. A suitable prize would be a copy of "A 
 Foolish Dictionary" b,y Gideon Wurdz. 
 
 Mystic Neio Year's Resolutions 
 
 The young man in the secret announces he is a miud reader. To test his power, 
 he asks all to ^\rite on slips of paper, in not more than four words, what he or she 
 resolves to do in the New Year. These papers are placed, one by one, face downward 
 on a table behind which the mind reader stands. He announces he will tell what is 
 in each paper without reading it, asking that, as each is read, the author acknowledge 
 it by raised hand. 
 
 Now a fellow-conspirator has already told the mind reader what he is going to 
 write on his paper, and he brings this paper last to the table. Its position is, of course, 
 noted b,v the reader. 
 
 The mind reader closes his eyes, picks up a paper frtma the tatjle and places it on 
 his forehead, blank side toward the audience. The words he reads, presumably from 
 this slip, are those written by his confederate, who raises his hand in acknowledgment. 
 The mind reader, on opening his e.yes, glances casually at the paper — to see what the 
 real words are. These he uses for the next paper. His colleague's paper is the last 
 he picks up and this closes the game, leaving the company completel.v mystified as 
 to how it is done.
