When time was called each child count

then choose the games to be played.

Buck the Indian,

Here is a good game for healthy
boys called buck the Indian"
Two captains are chosen, and each
captain then chooses until two long
lines are formed, They face each
other, holding hands tightly. One
captain calls the name OF one Of his
strongest boys, and this boy runs and
hurts himself between two boys OF
the opposing eide. If he succeeds In
breaking through he takes back with
him all the boys on the line below the
place he broke through. If he is I'M
successful lie must join the enemy's
side. This Is kept up until all the
boys are on one side
The strongest boys should be sta
toned near the top of the line, and
stratagem is shown in trying TO catch
the strong boys off their guard BY pre-
tending to tackle the boys at the bot
tom.

DIR. j. r. HENDERSON

FULLY RECOVERED
Bristol, Tenn. February 16.-Dr. ].
T. Henderson, Secretary of the lay
mems movement ofthe Southern Bap.
list Convention, has returned to his
home here after concluding his work
in connect ion with the Lavmcn's Con-
| ference in Chattanooga last week. Or.
Henderson has entirely recovered from
injuries sustained wnen ne fell in a
Chattanooga hotel, due to faintiug
spell. He is now looking after his
duties here as President of Virginia
Intermont College, where he is serving
his tenth year, and where he has done
| a great work, building up here one Of
the most influential educational insti-
buttons for girls, 10 be found in any
| part Of the South.
1t was published in Chattanooga in
connection with the injuries sustained
by DIR. Henderson and was wired out
from that city, that his illness was
probably due in part TO worry over
suit instituted against the directors of
the Citizens Bank of Bristol, Of which
board he is a member. AS matter of
| fact. this suit against the directors of
the bank has not been the slightest
source Of worry to DR.. Henderson, as
/ it in no way affects his personal mteg-
| rity nor The standing or financial con-
dition of the school.
DIR. Henderson has received letters
from patrons of the Virginia Inter
mont College in some ofthe Southern
| States, which indicates that wrong
impression has gained currency be-
cause Of the nature of The stories sent
out at the time he became i'll in that
city. Some Of the patrons of the school
seem TO have gained The idea that the
suit referred 10 is likely TO be disss-
trous to the school. A more mistaken
idea could not be conceived. The suit
can have no connection whatever with
Virginia Intermont College, which
was never IN so good a condition fin.
ancially as at present, and which is
now in the midst OF most successful
session.
! Dir. Henderson said in discussing
this matter: "The bank failure refer
req to happened two years ago, and
the litigation incident 10 that failure
had not been in my mind for month,
if, in fact, i had given it a thought so
recently as that"
Relative 10 the failure of this bank
il may be stated asa fact that every
depositor of the institution was paid
in full, and that the pending suit was
brought by stockholders of the bank
for the purposing of recovering on their
stock.
