Description:Excerpt from Parlor Games and Parties for Young and Old: Amusement Ideas for All the Family All the Year One of the surest ways to destroy the tension that too frequently characterizes the first hour of an evening party where the guests are not well acquainted with one another is to introduce a guessing game in which the participants do not sit down but move about the room. And if the hostess can make the game reveal the ingenuity of her guests still greater interest and enjoyment will be added and she may increase her laurels won as an entertainer. A game which answers this purpose may be called "Alliterative Acceptance." In response to the invitations, which the hostess should write with as much alliteration as possible, so as to inspire those to whom she writes, each guest is requested to send a sentence of about ten words, the prevailing initial of which is the same as his or her name, and which gives a hint of some characteristic of the writer, such as his business, hobby or personal peculiarity. These sentences, but not the names of the guests, are then written singly on cards and numbered to correspond with the names of the writers. After attaching little loops of baby-ribbon all will be ready for the evening. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
