the rough and ready little girls of the tenements who

Playing jackstones is also highly popular among the
foreign born children of the great American cities

is also the display of character wont

cheats always, but she isn't Objectionable as the
little girl who cheats in while and always when
is least expecting it. Then there is the little girl

Then there is the little girl who is an adept at the
sport, and who is usually very plain and matter of

when the game was played every recess time ON the
school house steps and they are still with us without
particle of change except in the minor matters of
name and nationality.
