10. GUESS WHO?
"Guess Who?" is a game where a suspended sheet is used. An aperture just large enough for a pair of eyes to look through is made. Men are seated on one side of curtain, while women are on the other. Under direction of captain, who directs her company, first young woman looks through opening. Captain of young men arranges who shall have first three guesses. Should he fail to discover the owner of eyes, she steps aside, to be put up again, and thus mystify and confuse her audience. The failure of young man in guessing leaves him without a partner for remainder of game, while successful ones enjoy waltz or two-step after game is finished; or, if preferred, prizes are given, which a man presents to the woman he has guessed.
11. PERPLEXING HUNT.
In this game the seeker for a prize is guided from place to place by doggerels as the following, and is started on his hunt with this rhyme:
"Perhaps you'll find it in the air;
If not, look underneath your chair."
Beneath his chair he finds the following:
"No, you will not find it here;
Search the clock and have no fear."
Under the clock he finds:
"You will have to try once more;
Look behind the parlor door."
Tied to the door-knob he discovers:
"If it's not out in the stable,
Seek beneath the kitchen table."
Under the kitchen table he finds another note, which reads :
"If your quest remains uncertain,
You will find it 'neath a curtain."
And here his quest is rewarded by finding the prize.
