To play masters and men sides are
chosen with an equal number OF play
ers on each side. one side being men
and the other masters. The object Of
the play Is to remain men as long as
possible and to keep the masters out Of
work. The men 20 outside the door
and cA1ose among themselves some
trade In which the arms. legs or hands
are used. Then they go inside the room
and range themselves In a line before
the masters. and the leader. or fore
man. tells the masters the first and
last letters of the trade chos IN. such az
A-Y for apothecary. CIR for carpenter,
and so on.
He then turns TO the men and says:
Now. my men. the works begun;
No more talking till It's one.
Immediately the men begin TO show
by gestures the movements peculiar to
the working of the trade selected. such
as ~hanmering for q blacksmith, saw
Ing and planning for a carpenter. After
q minute or two OF this the foreman
shouts. stop. my men. and demand
your wagesr' Each master In turn has
one guess at the trade the men are
supposed to be working AT. Should
they not guess right the men 90 out
again and choose another trade, md
80 the game goes ON. The game ends
when the masters guess right, and they
must they take the places OF the men.
