Place two rows of pins on the carpet, one on each side of the room. The pins should be six inches apart. Then, at the word of- command, the two players are to pick up one pin at a time, return with it and place it in a bowl. The one who has picked up all the pins first, of course,' wins. There is no stipulation as to which pin is to be first picked up. Counters may take the place of pins, or nuts would do. But pins , are best, because of the difficulty in kicking them, up. Some fun may be made by guessing who will be the winner in the pin race. ,
