Spotting the Silhouettes
Solution to Shadow Contest
the silhouettes is a jolly pastime for any evening, but especially so now that the wind and the rain drive so many young people indoors. A blazing fire, a clear space on the table, and a fine competition—what more could anyone ask for?
Despite the fact that the occupations suggested by the shadow people were so easy to guess, only one reader presented an entirely correct list.
