beautiful as in former years. The
weather continued cold after Easter
Sunday. and it may be said that the
spring season this year is from two
to three weeks late. AS the spring
season, even under the most favorable

feres with the usual parade of spring

THE GAME OF BATTERY.
meRt But q Fine Chance for
Real Skill as Well.

am going to tell the boys how to
make new game that will afford plen-
ty OF amusement and a. chance for
much skill. The game is called Bat
terry, and was originated by the writer.
The little blocks on each side repre-
sent fort, and the rings used are
are bombshells. When a player sue
cecds in throwing one over the peg Of
his opponent, the bomb is supposed to
have dropped into the enemy's fort.
Any smart boy, who can use saw,
plane and pocket knife, can make the
game in few hours. The material.
excepting the rings, you will probably
find somewhere about the premises,
but if not, few pennies will purchase
them.
Procure 1fice, smooth piece of
board, soft or hard wood, one-half inch
thick and eight inches square-as shown
in the illustration. Next make four
little wedge-shaped pieces. ~ inches
long by two inches wide at top, and
tapering to one-fourth of an inch at
the bottom end. The pieces should be
one-half inch thick and taper from the
wide end to almost nothing at the
small end. This is to give them a
slanting surface when glued in their
proper places on the board. Now draw
Williston graphic. (Williston, Williams County, N.D.) 1895-1919, 1904-04-14

a line across the center OF the board
each way, and glue or tack one of these
blocks on the line on each side of the
board and close to the edge, as shown
in the illustration. Next measure of
from the inside edge of the blocks, to-
ward the center, and on the line, one
inch from each block drive a one-inch
brad or shingle nail, SO that it shall
stack up above the surface of the board
exactly flve-eighths of an inch. Next
buy at the hardware store five little
b,ass curtain rings one-half inch in
diameter, which should not cost over
a penny or two, and the game is fin
ished. The board may be painted or
st aimed some pretty color if desired.
Two or four may play the game. If
four are to play you may play partners.
Having seated yourselves about the
board, which should be placed upon
a small center table, the first player
begins by taking the five rings, which
count five each, and one at a time
places them on the sloping block
(called battery, and placing the in
dex finger on the inside of the ring,
gives it quick snap up the incline so
that it will encircle the peg of his OPP
ponent directly opposite. Should he
fail to land it, he allows it to remain
on the board until he has thrown all
the rings. If he succeeded in getting
any of the rings over the peg, the one
chosen to keep tally puts down the
score to the player. The next player in
turn then takes the rings and proceeds
as with the first, and so on until all
have played, when the score is counted.
1t is best to have fixed number at the
start to play for; say so or 1Oo.-N. X.

1t IL not generally known that the
fur-seal was once a land animal. The
baby seals are actually afraid of the
water; they would drown if thrown
