winner was the man who executed the
movements first. Mumbletypeg was a
pretty good game. If it is PLAYED now,
| suppose they've got Judge or two
and re cree, and play it in uniforms
and charge an admission fee TO see the
game.
There were good manyroug games,
though none so rough as modern ioot-
ball or lacrosse. Football, by the way,
was seldom played, because few boys
had money enough to buy the balls,
v hen it was play ed it was Just kicking
the ball aro4nd and up and down the
school yard, between the center of the
village and the abroad station. 1t was
Simply scramble, but good-natured
one. Lacrosse was never heard OF, but
we played 'shinney, which is much the
same, without the science and the
rules. The Indians on the reservation,
three miles away, used to rlay shin
ney,' which | suppose took its name
from the imminent danger to which the
shins of the p aver were exposed.

know that if | met one the old bows
in the hsart of Central Africa and said
S inney to him he'd know what l
meant. Shinney sticks Were sha ed
like old-fashioned canes as much as
anyth ng, Usually they were sapl ngs
bent up at the end, or saplings cut off
VIII re branches truck out, and shaped
so that the branch made the curve. The
best shinney stick, though was sap
ling with a root Of just he right GU We.
That was a stick to be proud of. There
were not many such. h nney, was
played by two sides, and was a little
more systematic than the foot ball then
PLAY ed. The ewere no rules. how yer.
1t was like foot-ba |, good-natured
scramble. IN Y. Times.
