PARTY FAVOURS!
Why is it that, if a few confetti balls and the long paper streamers are thrown about at a party, there is at once a jolly, genial atmosphere, and the layer of ice. however thin, that is usually felt at the beginning of a party where everyone doesn’t know everyone else, is immediately broken. At a fairly big dance the other night, the guests on arrival were handed a little box with a balloon tied to it. and in the box were whistles, streamers, bags of light confetti balls, and paper caps. Everyone opened their surprise packet and within ten minutes the company was gay, happy, and laughing, and friends at once, with all stiffness and embarrassment banished for ever. The balloons and the boxes did the trick! —A Correspondent.
