Sentence Ruildina.

Each word of the sentences must
begin with the initial letter of the
word given by the leader in each
round. For convenience let the hostess
begin; then the player on her right
gives the second word. the next player
the third, ETC., so that the sentence
will be completed only when it reaches
the hostess or whoever started it.
Great care must be taken not to give
a word that will end the sentence, as
the leader is the only one who is sup
posed to finish it. But II O player
cannot avoid finishing a sentence he
must pay a forfeit or drop out Of the
game.
Suppose there are six players (any
number may play and the leader says
"boys," No. 2 beat" No. 3 humble"
No. 4 "bees." Thus No. 4 is out or
pays some forfeit, as he has finished
the sentence. But the sentence might
have been. Boys, bad boys, beat bum
BILE bees" thus bringing 1t to the lead
err to finish. The more ridiculous the
sentences are the more fun.

My brownies are lot as big as a YEA. The brownies drink the juice of plants.
