6Post Office Kissing' Can Be Dangerous
EDITOR'S NOTE: The fol
lowing article was written in
1938 under the Federal Writ
ers' Project. The project was
created during the depression

to keep more persons doing
work, rather than going in the
relief lines. Articles such as
this were sent to editors
around the state to use in their
publications.
Although the activities in
cluded in the once popular
kissing game called "Post
Office" are undoubtedly as
well liked as ever, the game
itself is no longer known.
Research workers of the!
Federal Writers' Project, j
WPA, have found, related in !
Nebraska newspapers, inci-
! dents of a kind which probab
ly had much to do with the
game's decline in favor
A Beatrice young man, for
instance, claimed that he was
enticed into a game of Post
Office on evening in 1894,
with the result that he went
about for several days after
wards with his lips so sore he
could hardly talk or eat. This
would seem to be legitimate j
cause for complaint, since'
nearly everyone likes to talk
Land few care to go without
eating. Even worse, however,
was the sad case of the young
fellow whose carefully tend
ed mustache was his great
est pride. He, too, got into a
kissing party one night, and
after a thrilling session found
his mustache so full of chew
ing gum that he had to cut it
off.
