Some Outdoor Games.


A delightful game to play in the
cold weather holidays when the long
hours drag within doors. is snow. fox
and geese.
A very slight snowfall will suffice
for the game. but it may be played
with snow a foot deep in a city back
yard or in the field Of the country. The
game is prepared by the boys, who
first, with high boots, trample in the
snow q huge circle. with six or eight
diametric paths. as the size. Of the lot
may allow. After these paths are
clearly marked the fun begins. Any
number may join in the sport.
1t is like the old story of THE Spid.
er and the Fly" One person stands
in the centre of the circle and dashes
up and down the diamftric paths to
seize upon the others as they fly
around the circle. The players can
venture into the centre if they are so
daring, but If caught they become the
spider. and dash for another victim.
The one who is catching cannot walk
around the circumference. but is con-
fined to the central paths.
Snow baby is another funny game
A smooth patch of snow is selected,
and as many holes or dens are pre-
pared as there are players. The
dens are made by scooping up little
snow to form a hollow place about as
big as a two-Quart bowl. Each per-
son selects a den which he calls his,
and near which he stands. A circle is
marked lightly in the snow around the
group of dens, and al take their stand
within the Circle. each nea( his own
den.
About six feet of. one person is
chosen, who losses q SNOWFALL into
any one Of the dens. The person into
whose dens it falls picks the ball up
quickly and tries to hit some one of
the party, who all start to run as soon
as a ball lands in a den. If the one
aimed at is hit he drops stone into
his den, and becomes the one TO throw
the ball into the den of some one eise
This is repeated until one Of the
players has six stones in his den,
when he is declared beaten. If at any
time ito one throwing the ball from
his de- toward some one fails to hit
the one he aims at, stone is put into
his den. and he becomes the one to
throw the ball. Unless there is
crust on the ground, this game cannot
~ nlaved in snow more than foot

merry eyes, and slaDping his snow
covered brooches. he said: "Ha. ha!
Ill make Edna see the point
The next day dawned clear and cold

| 1t is pleasant to tell ti.at this inquisi
| tive little girl was very generous one
as well. After a few breath-catching
| spins she lent her shiny new flyer to
Alice Grey. who had no sled of her
own. 1t was too cold to stand still
Dancing up and down was an right for
awhile, but Edna soon got tired OF this
Just then a little crackle sounded al
her feet and a section Of an icicle
dropped beside her No little girl with
nose like Edna's could have thing
like this happen without looking up
to see where it came from. She saw
its companion icicle hanging over the
railing of the porch, and right back OF
the icicIe was something lumpy look
ing and red What in the world could
that be? Each minute her wonder
grew. Soon curiosity got the better
of wisdom-to the cost OF Edna-and
her nose.
The frame work that supported the
vines in summer stretched invitinsly
upward Edna decided she would
climb up and ind out what that lumpy,
redlooking something was. She be-
gan cautiously-then grew holder. AS
she got higher her steps were heavier,
until almost at the top-when success
was Just within reach of her hand,
crack! crash, went the frame. Edna
wildly scrambling for something to
cling to. She looked appealingly to
heaven. but all she saw was that frail
icicle, which gazed upon her with any
thing but a suggestion of help.
Mother! Oh. mothef!" shouted Ed
no.
Here's my time" said Jack Frost,
Il think she'll feel as we'll as see the
point"
And she did! That innocent look
ing icicle waited for Edna to drop. AS
she raised her head and nose to
scream, down it came right in the mid
dle-not Of her forehead-but her lit
tie turned-up troublesome nose. 1t
measured the distance perfectly, for
Jack Frost is a clever marksman. The
icicle followed his directions perfectly.
It struck Edna's nose right at the be
ginning Of the end" right where the
turn-up began.
How it did hurt. How the dirty
frozen water oozed from the wound!
Mixed with blood and tears. 1t made
Edna's face such a funny sight that If
one hadn't been SO sorry for her. one
would have laughed at her appearance.
AS it was. mother only kissed the
nose, dirt and all, and mildly suggest
ed that perhaps the occurrence had
been a trick of Jack Frost's to cure
her little girl of being too curious.-M.
