A LAWN GAME.

Suace.

entertaining sport for Limite''
space.
A game which requires mueh ski
Ind practice in order to win a satlsfae-
tory score is played with a cue, balls ana
ring fastened in the ground.
The game is a favorite and one easily
possible, even if the space at ones COM
mand is limited.
A circular space is chalked of OF any
dimensions desired. In the center OF
the circle is a revolving ring made OF
iron or brass. 1t has shank, and when
il is to be used large wooden peg IS
driven into the ground, with the top
a little below the surface. and into II
hole is bored large enough to receive
the shank of the ring and to let 1t re-
volve freely. Half the fun of the game
consists in having a ring only just large
enough to let the ball pass through.
and the ring must be so neatly poised
as TO revolye with touch. The best
plan for securing this is to have metal
socket let into the wooden peg. II so.
care must be taken that the socket be
brass, If the ring is iron. and the re-
verse. Both shank and socket should be
kept well oiled. The cues have wooden
handles and metal tip. which is ring
shaped ard fixed at an angle with the
handle. This formation enables the
ball to be better played than.if the cue
and Zip were in line. The balls. about
one foot in circumference. are Of rubber
and are very hard; each one is painted
with rim around the center Of DIFF
ferent color Each player has her own
cue aud ball.
The object Of the game is to pass
the bal through the revolving ring. and
the player scores point every time she
succeeds There is in this game more
play than at first appears. If. for ex-
ample a player in sending her ball
through the ring strikes another bali.
either before or after. she adds two TO
her score. II player finds the ring
turned edgewise toward her she can
either place her own ball so as TO OBJ |
struct the next stroke of the enemy |
or by dextrous play at the ring turn |
il edgewise to the enemy next in sue
cession. The clever player will strike
q ball belonging 70 her own team so
as to put 1t into position or will strike
away the ball Of an opponent who seems
likely to make a successful stroke.
4 really good player win often con
triye TO pass the ring, even though I,
be almost edgeways TO her. II the ring
be turned in the least to one side OF
the other she will play at il with pc
culiar push Of her cue and strike ii q
little on one side. II this is properly
done and with moderate force the ring
spins round and catches the ball in is
progress. The effect of this sudden
shock is that the ball vibrates back.
wards and forwards for moment, and
finally settles on the opposite side.
1t must be borne in mind that the
ball cannot be pushed through the ring
With the cue touching il. neither may
il be thrown through. 49, American
