So this week let's continue on with the project Now that every one who la to be invited and puzzled over their invitation let's keep involving the evening I with rnybtery.

Z for rnerals for the alphabet or reversing the alphabet, such A. Y for I, etc. Such a code will take a few minutes for the receiver to figure out, but easy enough that he cart do so. The fellows will all know, of courmw, where they are to meet. rut, this Is imporunt, the meeting place should not be the place where the epooks are to gather for their fandango. You know the reason why. Everyone doesn't always arrive on thrie and their 'will Iv some waiting before the party can begin. With a spooks party it le quite necessary that everyone be ready at , the same lime It I suggested then that they meet at the appointed place into- - separate - grou ps, 'five or Vt--Iand there-c- l a' group and each given a coded message to jigure out which will lead them as a group to the gathering place. Try to get a place where they haven't been before, be it a private house, or an outside meeting place, It might be well to let them know before hand what group they wilt belong to and can dress accordingly. Such as the devils, the ghosts, the skeletons, etc. This will assure greater group participation and mystery. No one should be able to recognize each other In their own groups. Now keep all these things In mind and begin to make preparations now.
