If one has a wide fireplace anda num-
ber of friends who are good story-tel-
lers, a fagot party may be a pleasant
form of entertainment. Give to each
guest a ribbon-tied bundle of fagots or
bits of wood, place cozy seats about
the fire and ask number one (the ribbons
should be numbered) to throw her fuel
upon the fire. As it burns a story is
to be told, neither longer nor shorter
