A Fortune Teller in the Party

All young people love to have their fortune told. They are very much news conscious, so it is always fun to tell them about their future and wished. No matter whether its going to be true or not. Its gives them a great joy. For the joy of your party gang just prepared with some question which are mainly related with their likes and dislikes.

Youngsters of this age are always very news conscious, so it was fun to tell them that the morning papers wished to carry a full account of their party. We requested each one to answer in full the questions asked on the slip of paper handed him. However, each question was to be answered with two words beginning with the writers first and last initials. We allowed five minutes for answering questions. The slips were then passed to the neighbor on the right who read them aloud. Good questions for this game are:

i. Where born?
2. What did father say?
3. Your first words?
4. Favorite sport?
5. Favorite food?
6. Pet peeve?
7. Secret ambition?
8. Type of sweetheart you like?
9. Your opinion of this party?
10. Your opinion of your host or hostess?

After this we asked the youngsters if they would like to do a bit of spooning. Lacking any volunteers we picked three couples. The partners were seated on opposite sides of the table and each was given a spoon. The spoons were tied together with about eight inches of string. Then each contestant was given a dish of ice cream. The object of the game was to see which couple could finish their ice cream without breaking the string. At a signal the race began. A broken string disqualified a couple. Winners were awarded wooden spoons purchased at the dime store.

All young people love to have their fortunes told. They liked the "Yarn of the Future." We had prepared for this beforehand by tying a written fortune every two feet on a ball of yarn. Then we rewound the ball adding extra yarn so that the paper fortunes wouldn't show. The host tossed the ball to a guest who unwound until he came to the first paper. He took it off then threw the ball to someone else. This continued until each guest had a paper. Then they took turns reading aloud. Here are some fortune suggestions that the teen-agers enjoyed:

1. Never get married on the thirty - second day of the month.
2. Don't get killed in the dark of the moon - it's fatal.
3. You'll soon be dead - dead wrong.
4. Don't watch the clock so closely it may strike.
5. It's unlucky for you to drown on Friday the Thirteenth.
6. You'll shine in society - if you don't powder your nose.
7. Don't cultivate a taking way - your friends may miss things.
8. Beware of courtships - they often sink.
9. Your rich relatives will soon leave you but they won't leave you much.
10. If you're looking for love see "1" in the dictionary.

If you want to have some fun at refreshment time arrange an ice-cream bar. Its easy to do. On the dining-room table we put several bowls filled with balls of ice cream one vanilla, one chocolate, and the other peppermint. We had one pitcher of chocolate sauce, another of butterscotch and a third of marshmallow cream. A dish of nuts and one of maraschino cherries completed the supplies. At the other end of the table we put a supply of sherbet glasses, spoons and napkins.

Each one became his own soda jerker. There is something in each of us that craves to mix fancy sundaes. You'll be surprised at the concoctions teen-agers will mix and also at the number they are able to consume. It solves the refreshment problem delightfully for all concerned.

Great fun is for sure in the party with a crowd of young boys and girls. Fun in refreshment is also very much important because they love eating. Ice-cream, nuts, cherries are all time favorite of most of the youngsters.
