When ono of the seekers discovers a hider, ho shouts, "Cheep, cheep, birdie, I see Jack"—or whatever the hider's 1 name happens to be. On hearing his I name called the hider must run ofCitninodiatcly to home. Any one of tho see-k----ers can 'catch him, which doesn't give him so much chance, but it makes more excitement. While tho seekers are chasing a hider, other hiders can take the opportunity to dash off home. When all tho hiders have been found, they are counted. If a greater number arrived home without being caught than the number that was caught, then they become the seekers. But if the greater number was caught, then they hare to hide again.
