A Verandah Game
When it too dark to play ball and there is still an hour before bedtime, here is a game we often play on the verandah. We call it our ABC game. One starts with A and makes a complete sentence, each word beginning with A, for example: “Alice ate apples at Aunt Alice’s.” The next one takes B—“ Benjamin bought big baseballs,” and so on through the alphabet. Some very funny combifaations can be made. The. game may be played a number of times, for each one thinks of a different, sentence when his turn comes.
