There were about twenty-five boys and girls, and with the grown-ups this made quite a party.
It was fun, indeed, to have both Cousin Jack and Uncle Steve present, for these two men just devoted themselves to the cause, and made so much fun and merriment that they seemed like big children themselves.
They gave a burlesque wrestling match on the lawn that sent the young people off into peals of laughter.

They made up funny dialogue, and were always playing good-natured tricks on some of the children.

Then Cousin Jack said: "Now we will play the Good Luck game.

Into the hall, all of you!" The children scampered into the hall, and on the wall they saw a large placard which read: "Pins one Hairpins two Four-leafed clovers five Horse-shoes ten Pennies fifteen Black cats twenty-five." Each guest was given a small fancy basket, with ribbons tied to the handle.

Then they were instructed to hunt all the rooms on the lower floor, the veranda, and the nearby lawns, and gather into their baskets such of the above mentioned articles as they could find.
