DISGUISE YOUR HOME FOR THAT HALLOWEEN PARTY

Cellar Is Fine Spot for Party BY JULIA BLANRHARD, NEA Service Writer. NEW YORK. Oct. 30 —ls you are giving a Halloween party this year, why not make it an underground affair? There is such a spookysomething about a party held in the cellar? An attic is just as good. Or, if you live in an apartment and have neither, you can rig your entire home up with ghosts, owls, cats and goblins to give an eerie atmosphere the moment your guests enter the door. Dim your electric lights with faces cut out of yellow paper. Have a scarecrow in a dark corner to leer at folks. Skeleton faces are not bad for the farthest corners and if you want to put a sheet around them to hang like graveclothes, that makes the picture perfect. Mystery’s the Thing To start things right, yod must furnish an element of the unknown by giving all your guests masks the minute they arrive. Black cat and owl masks are appropriate for a Halloween party. Give your guests gay yellow caps, too, and aprons of decorative crepe paper certainly add a festive note. It should be a "prowl party” from the word “GO!” Everybody should draw numbers from a witches’ caldron to find their partners. Once matched up, each pair finds the string matching their number and begins going upstairs, downstrais, around here and there to find their prize. Everybody will meet everybody else many times in this maze and the hilarity will start. The prizes, at the end of the strings, should be clackers, weird whistles, anything that makes a noise like Halloween. A Date for Halloween No Halloween party is quite right that doesn’t have contests and games. "Who has a date?” is a good starter. Have strings ready, about a yard long, with a nutstuffed date tied in the center. A boy and a girl are given opposite ends of the string and start to see which one can “eat up” the string first and get the date. If either jerks the string from the other, he forfeits the date. Trying to get bites out of apples hung on strings, bobbing into the dishpan for apples, and races to see who can peel apples without breaking the skin, throw the skin over their left shoulders and make an initial with it first, are all good stunts. Riding the broomstick is a pile of fun for children. You put a broomstick across the seats of two chairs, put a sofa pillow on the broomstick, and give the rider a cane. He is supposed to balance himself, lift the cane and fleck off the tops of both chairs the handkerchiefs that you put there. Dont Forget Fortune Teller You should furnish your guests at least one way of having their fortunes told. A neighbor dressed up as a witch or gypsy is excellent if she is good at the trick. You can tell fortunes by cards, or you can rig up a fortune game that is like the old favorite, “Pinning the tail on the pig.’ You have a big sheet of paper with all the various fortunes you can think of summed up. You blindfold a guest, spin him around to confuse him, give him a pointer and let the rest see which fortune he designates. Every Halloween party should finish with a nice dance. It is most appropriate to have old-sash-

ioned square dances danced, if you can get someone to call them. An accordion makes an ideal music for this. The room where refreshments are served should be hung with crepe paper moss, have a tree or two in the corner (made of pasteboard), plenty of spooky cats, owls and so on. And a gig spacious table for refreshments. These can be little chicken hot pies, hot rolls, pickles and coffee, or sandwiches, coffee, doughnuts and cider, or anything you want. But don’t fall down on the decorative effect of your refreshments! Put a pasteboard funny-face over your chicken pie; you can cut one to fit the little dishes. Paint faces on your sandwiches. Do this by smearing cream cheese over brown bread and then make eyes, nose, mouth of olives, pimento, nuts or whatever you need. And do have fancy napkins, paper plates and other party accessories. For Halloween comes but once a year, and this year it should be an unusually gay party! ALPHA DELTA PI TO GIVE HOLIDAY FETE Alpha Delta Pi sorority will hold a masquerade party at 8 tonight at the chapter house, 545 Berkley road. Bridge, bunco and dancing with oldfashioned Halloween games are on the program. Mrs. Harriet Eitel Wells and Mrs. Warren Dawson wi be chaperons.
