and let one OF the children find prizes
for the racers. The prizes may be any
thing she finds az hand-the more
ridiculous the better-but IL makes the
race more interesting TO have them,
particularly II they are presented with
a speech. IL Is well to let all the play
ers have prizes. though OF course the
winner receives the first prize.

with her claws. There are supersti-
