igures of
peanuts. Crepe paper of various hues is provided for the costumes, and
black thread for the queues. First the peanuts are strung to form the
little manikins, then eyes, nose and mouth are marked on with ink.
Jackets and trousers are next cut and made, and the little Ching-Changs
are dressed. Pigtails are plaited and sewed on to the tops of the heads,
then the hats go on and the little celestials are ready to be inspected
by the judges. These dolls the guests keep as souvenirs of their skill.

In the dining room have a small evergreen tree planted in a china
jardiniere in the center of the supper table with little peanut owls
perched on the branches of the tree. These owls have wings of light
manila paper and are marked with ink to represent feathers. Big, staring
eyes add a touch of realism. The owls are attached to the branches,
singly and in groups, with glue.

For supper serve creamed chicken patties, tiny hot rolls, brandied
peaches or sweet watermelon pickle; salad of cucumbers and mayonnaise
served on lettuce leaves or cress, peanut butter, and chopped smoked
tongue sandwiches, ice cream served in sherbet glasses, assorted cakes,
coffee or chocolate.

FOLK LORE SUPPER.

Engage real colored singers to give a program of songs of the Southland,
the old-time plantation melodies. Arrange the stage with a log cabin
surrounded by sunflowers in the background and a cotton field in
foreground, and have the singers costumed as field hands. Some of the
best known and best liked songs include "Old Black Joe," "Swing Low,
Sweet Chariot," "Nobody Knows the Trouble I Am Seeing," "Nellie Gray,"
"Suawanee River," "Way Over Jordan," "Ride up in the Chariot," "Massa's
in the Cold, Cold Ground," "Dixie." Serve a fried chicken supper with
rice, hot biscuits, syrup, cornpone, ice cream and cake and coffee. The
program can end with buck and wing dancing, jigs and cakewalks.

CAKE WALK SUPPER.

At this cake walk there is no walking for the cake. The cakes themselves
walk for prizes.

Ask each guest to dress representing a certain variety of cake, but
concealing the name of the particular cake represented.

Give a prize to the person who discovers the largest number of names.

One girl representing Wedding Cake can come with bridal veil, orange
blossom wreath and shower bouquet.

Fruit Cake may be suggested by a girl carrying a graceful basket of
fruit which she distributes to the company. In her hair she may wea
