NINE. MERRFs ADVICE
ENJOYABLE GAME FOR WINTER
EVENING IS "uP JENKINS"
Idea Originated In the East, and 10
Sure to Afford Lots Of Fun-va-
rlous Flowers Of the States
Given From Memory.

Have you ever played the exciting
game of up jenkins? 2" If not try 1t;
1 vas initiated last summer while at
grown up lads and lassies enjoyed a
round at it and the hotel living room
used to ring with merry laughter.
/ hope / can make the rules clear so
you can all understand, and the faster
1t is played the more fun it is. The
players are divided into sides with
leaders or captains and sit in a line
on opposite sides of a table. A toss
up Is made for the first start, and It is
the place Of the leader of the "in''
team to say what shall be done by the
ter is best) which they must endeavor
to keep concealed.
The players on the "out" side pass
the coin from one to another beneath
the table, leaving it hidden with one
OF the members.
When the leader calls up Jenkins"
and raises his hands over his head,
the opponents follow his example with
their hands closed. He says Down
jenkins" and brings his own hands
down on the table. The ''out" team
follow his example and now the lead
er must say under which hand the
quarters is concealed. Crying off"
which means off the table, he touches
each hand which he thinks is empty
and leaves the hand which he suspects
La the coin antil the last. II he is
mistaken and the coin is beneath one
of h hands he has ordered "off," his
/ loses and the other team is Gin"
N his out" If the last hand should
happen to have the quarter, the game
Is won and another turn Is taken. The
/ d that is "oCt" must follow the op-
ponents' captain only: If he says up
Jenkins" while his hands remain on
the table and the hands of his team
go up, he opponents take no notice of
the order, nor if all hands are held
up and he calls Down Jenkins" with
out his suiting the action to the COM
mand. The leaders example only is
followed, not his words, and here is
where many players get caught. For
all mistakes made by the 'out" side a.
forfeit Is paid to the "in" team. The
hands are brought down on the table
hard to smother the ring OF the coin.
