Even the little folk sometimes have "social debts" to pay off, and if a child has accepted many party in- vitations without having given a party, she (or he) could select no more appropriate time to meet her obligations than May first. The beautiful thing about a May Party is that it may be given out of doors. All of the games may be play- ed on the lawn, and the refreshments (the usual iced cocoa, simple white cake, jam sandwiches, and ce cream) may be served in the dining room---unless a table on the lawn is preferred. The games, of course, make the "party." Here are some excellent ones: Chase the Squirrel is a good game to start it, as it is vigorous and "breaks the ice." All except one child stand in a ring with hands on one another's shoulders. The one outside this ring runs around the circle and suddenly drops a large walnut behind one child. That child must break from the ring, pick up the nut, and run to the left, while the Squirrel! (the child who dropped the nut) runs around the outside of the ring to the right. They pass each other on the opposite side of the ring, of course, and each tries to reach the vacant space in the ring left by the child who picked up the nut. If the Squirrel reaches it, then the other runner becomes Squirrel and must now drop the nut behind Some other child in the ring. The game may be played indefinitely. Making May Baskets: Each child is given a small, unadorned basket and told to deéorate it. from a pile of crepe paper (have one pair of scissors for each child); an assort- ment of cut flowers (or {imitation flowers) should be at hand ior the contestants to select from, when fil- ling their baskets. The prettiest basket wins a prize. Five minutes is a fair time to allow for the work. These little baskets can then be used on the refreshments table as favors or decorations. . Hide the Bird: This game is a variation of the old-fashioned Hide the Thimble. A china or papier mache bird is used instead of a thimble. It mdy be hidden in bushes, among flowers, or any place around the lawn or porch by the child who is "It," while the other children hide.

The desire to pierce clouds that veil the future is strong in the human heart and much money has crossed the palms of fortune tellers since the world began. Some people laugh of finality, "There is nothing in it," which does not in the least convince those who have been told their innermost sec- Tets by one gifted with a physic pow- er, shall we call it telepathy? But the future--that is another thing. Think if you will, you who have been told wonderful things of what was in your mind when the fortune teller held your hand or gazed into your tea cup. Was it not the ques- tion you had come to der to help you decide that she spoke of? Pro- badly it was and long practice made it quite possible for the seer to catch the thought and weave a warning, if the question was one that might call for ome, or a promise of fut@re suc- cess along the line desired by the Questioner. There is no doubt that wonderful th have been done in this direction, but our advice would be to lay, all the facts you know (and the fortune teller only knows what you know) on the table and S make up your mind from what your course should be.
