My happy thought... When I was a kid my mom gave me one of these books and for some reason it was one of my most treasured items. It was from the 1940s, and appealed to my creative instincts. It was lost long ago. They reflect a time when people were more creative and hard working, instead of buying plastic junk from China we have today. First published in 1920, this Bogie Book features the following ideas with suggestions for planning, decorating and preparing a party that won't soon be forgotten: a lively home Halloween party; card party on October 31; planning refreshments for the party (including menu and beverage ideas); business girl's halloween party; a dinner dance; supper at the club on Halloween; decorations for school hall, club or parish house; Halloween games including the cup of fate, matrimonial race, ghostly fate, witch's cats, blindfolded partners, spinning the web of fate, apple ten pins, ghostly lites and more; a fabulous rhyming interactive ghost story; costume ideas (for plans and instructions for costumes, please see our Dennison Costume books); decorations for harvest time and thanksgiving. Centerpieces, favors and novelties such as a black cat charm, cat score card, witch pencil, cat balloon, ghostly prize, cat bag, witch horn, witch serving cup, cat serving tray, pirate jack horner pie, pumpkin clown serving cup, candy candlesticks, clown candy holder and so many more are all pictured with instructions on how to make.

Book Description
Very few people understand the magic of the sea... and very few people ever knew that the world's best known actor Humphrey Bogart spent much of his free time aboard his sailboat SANTANA. Bogie committed many years of study and practice to earn the reputation as one of the most accomplished racers and captains in the area. Fellow sailor Larry Dudley came to be Bogie's friend, cabin mate and confidant during their ten years together sailing and racing off the coast of Southern California. Years into their friendship, Dudley had just finished reading "The African Queen" when he told Bogie he thought there was a part in it for him... a prophetic fit for the man and the movie. These two men shared a love of the ocean and the fine vessels that traveled on the seas. Be it a long race around the islands or at anchor off a pebbled beach, Bogie felt at ease amongst the sailors and had earned their respect on and off the water. He referred to the SANTANA as "the other world" and revealed a side of himself to his sailing friends that no one else knew. "Sailing With Bogie" reveals insights into his wife Lauren Becall, Katherine Hepburn, Jack Warner, John Huston, Sterling Hayden and others. Read about Humphrey Bogart in a hidden life away from the Hollywood lights.

Preface Dear Reader Welcome to 'Bogie Number 2003', This novel is about a story of two generations post independence. A set of college students pursuing Tourism as their main subject, are on an educational tour alongwith their professors, in the year 1976. For the journey a railway bogie has been booked, which was in possession for the entire trip. The students in this trip belong to the younger generation and their professors, railway officials, police excise employees etc. belong to the older generations. The newly found independence was soon converted in to waywardness. Corruption was breading in polities had slowly set in roots in all the section of the society. The second generation has also become a part of it. This novel is about this particular generation which is engulfed in corruption. Kind of this era were pampered like royal kids, quite contrary to several siblings in the older families. The grandparents considered these youngsters, spoilt outrightly. This so called modern parents tool pride in providing material comforts to gets over their own feeling of want, owing to limited resources they had lived with. This novel reveals these two generation of such political gamut where those in power started devouring more than protecting the society. Minting money with fraudulent practices, became a norm. People were more influences by cine stars than the real heroes like Swami Vivekanand, Subhash Chandra Bose, Bhagat Singh or Chandra Shekhar Azad to name a few. Good old simplicity and moral values were robbed by greed and pretension. This engrossing story will bring you good impressions and contradictious of the two generations interwoven with subtle humour and satire. I am thankful to Dr. Neelam Verma, a well known poet and a cardiologist for translating my novel. My sincere thanks to Prof. Purabi Panwar, a scholar of English language and a renowned author who has given her views in the 'FOREWORD'. I would like to express my gratitude to Dr. Sanjeev Kumar, the publisher and a literary figure, the owner of 'India Net Books'.
