A GAME TO PLAY.
This game will make you laugh, because you all look so funny at times while you are playing. You can play in the garden, in. the fields, or on the sands* The leader is given a ball, and the rest of the players run about just wherever they like, no+ too far away, because it isn't a catching game. The leader throws the ball, trying to hit one of the players. As he throws he says, "As you'are," and the player at whom the ball was thrown must stand just as he is, doesn't matter how funny the position. If the player is actually hit he has, to change places with the thrower. If.' he is not hit, the rest of the players rush after the ball, and the one'to get it takes the leader's place. , ■■ .' ■'And they in turn.throw it at somo one, but don't.forget that unless you are hit 1 with-the ball you must stand in the same funny position until you are .again struck by accident, and can come, to; life. Failing that, you don't come to life.again until the end of the game.. • ;
