Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Social Entertainments: A Book of Practical Suggestions for Entertaining
Dear Young Folks - oi Whatever age, from fifteen to fifty: Let's play. That sounds young enough, doesn't it? I hope we shall never grow too old to play at some kind of fun-making game, even if it is only a merry make believe to help us to forget those tiresome lessons we all must pore over in the school of life.
Fun. That's the watchword and the pass Word for us - something to refresh and hearten us so that we may go back to our problems with a new zest So now let us get together and play What shall we play? A question, if not as old as Adam, at least as old as the young Cain and Abel.
Games? Yes. Charades? Perhaps. The piano? When it fits into the entertainment; perhaps even a real playlet to be acted out upon our own home or school stage. In short.
