Author also discusses the COSTUMES which can be used: ''Any quaint costumes may be used, or they may be taken from designs in Mother Goose.'' 5. Author also states that: ''Much of the success of this entertainment will depend upon the abandon with which the children enter into the spirit of the occasion. Drill them to be full of pranks, but do not let their antics be too pronounced so as to attract the attention of the audience from the speaker.''
