Parlor Games and Parties for Young and Old - Amusement Ideas for All the Family All the Year #221569

In response to the invitations, which the hostess should write with as much alliteration as possible, so as to inspire those to whom she writes, each guest is requested to send a sentence of about ten words, the prevailing initial of which is the same as his or her name, and which gives a hint of some characteristic of the writer, such as his business, hobby or personal peculiarity. These sentences, but not the names of the guests, are then written singly on cards and num bered to correspond with the names of the writers. After attaching little loops of baby-ribbon all will be ready for the evening.
