then mixes the four pieces and passes
them TO the player on the left All

received so as TO make the original
square, and at the expiration OF i've
minutes or any period agreed on be-
forehand those who have been sue
eessful score one point. Each one now
passes his pieces TO the left again, and
so on till each has had before him all
the clipped squares In regular order.

The task OF putting the pieces to

In reality II Is difficult The four pieces
can be put together in no less than 25d
different ways, only one OF which
forms a square.
The game can be played as solitaire
by simply clipping one square and
then trying 20 put II together again,
which will be found almost as difficult
as though the clipping had been done
by another person.

Of bold determined men, who use
