THE SUCCESS of your children's party will depend more on the organisation you put into it than upon the money you spend.
Plan the soating for tea as carefully as you would for a grown-up party. They cannot enjoy the meal unless they are comfortable, and it matters a lot who is sitting next to whom. beforehand; the Plon children, when they're invited to n party, expect a party-ot rowdy gathering they could have practically any day.

Try to keep the children as much to the same age as possible. Up to coven eight years they like a mixed party, from eight to fourken gathering of their own sex, nad from fourteen onwards za mixed one again.
All children are liable to get over- excited at a party and you can't really blame them if they get bals- terous after an exciting gaine. It stolay is a good iden to follow &

PATS, Rabbits and, Rice is a noisy A game, but a good one if you have plenty of room. The children stand in two rows facing one another, a few paces apart. One row are rab- bits and the other rata. A grown-up stands between the rows.
If the tender says "rnis," the rats behind turn and run to the wall them. The "rabbits" chase them and try to catch them. Any "rate" caught before they reach their wall join the "rabbits." If the leader says, "rabbits" the "rata" do the chasing, but it she says "rice" neither Ine must move. Anybody who does must join the other line. The game goes on until all the players are on one side.
For quiet games the old guessing and hiding gumes are best. If you

curtains and clothes for dressing-up, charades are grand for the older children.

The younger ones can play Cobbler, Cobbler, Mend My Shoe, Poor Pussy and the Parson's Cat. Every one knows the first two; the last is played by the children taking it in turns to describe the cat with a different adjective beginning, with the same teller. For instance. "The parson's cat is no attractive cat. "The parson's cat is an artful cat."
And then, for every one, there's always Postman's Knock.
