PORTRAIT GAME

Previous

In this new and clever game a name card, with the numbers from one to six written upon it, a small pad of paper, and a pencil, are handed to each guest. The gentlemen are then asked to select partners for each number upon their cards, and when this is done the hostess may give the signal for the game to begin, and announce that "partners" may proceed to draw each other's faces upon the pads of paper, each gentleman depicting the charms of his vis-À-vis, and each lady doing likewise.

At the end of five minutes a bell gives the signal for the gentlemen to seek their next partners, and again the portraiture goes on. When all the partners have been taken and all the portraits drawn, each portrait being marked with the artist's initials and a number corresponding to the number the model occupies on each card, the collection is pinned to a sheet or portiÈre, and the guests are invited to guess whose likeness each drawing is meant to represent.

The one guessing the largest number of portraits correctly is given a prize of a photograph, and the one who has made the best portrait also receives one.
