A GAME TO PLAY

FILM FACES. Here is a good party game. Half the players are chosen as the audience, and the other half as the film actors. One player is the “Director.” The actors are sent out of the room and are called in one by one. The Director whispers an “expression" to each actor, who turns to the audience and tries to “register" it as well as he can. Each member of the audience writes down on a slip of paper the name of the actor and the expression which he thinks he is trying to register. If the Director should whisper ■ Anger” to an actor, for instance, he must try to look as angry as possible.

The audience have to guess each actor’s expression, and when everyone has finished the Director checks up the papers and finds out which act" has been able to register his expre* sion most correctly. This one is allowed to be “Director" in the ne-in game.

A little girl on arriving late at school for the third time, was scolded by her teacher and told to write a composition on ‘Punctuality." After a quarter of an hour she produced the following: “Punctuality is knowing where to make stops.”
