MATCHBOX TRICK.
Here is a good trick to show your friends at your birthday party, boys. Ask them if they can balance a number of matchboxes on top of one another without dropping them. After several of your chums have had a try, show them how it can be done. The secret of the trick is to slightly open the drawer of each box so that it just fits a little way on to the one next to it. In this way they support each other.
