Games for the Tots
Ny dear Miss Doom:

My dear Miss Doom:
| am on a committee to get up
games for little tots from the age
of four to the age of eight. As you
have helped others, I think you can
possibly help me. These games are
to be played in a large Sunday
school room.
| read your column every night,
and think it a very useful one.
/ should like to have the games
for Saturday If you can print them
so early.
Thanking you in advance, l re-
main FLORENCE A. c.
Let them play some of the old
fashioned childish games, as Throw
ing the Handkerchief. The children
are seated in a circle. Someone sta
toned in the centre throws an un-
folded handkerchief to one of the
seated players. Whoever receives
it must instantly throw it to some
one else. and so on, while the per-
son in the centre endeaYors to
catch it in its passage from one
player to the other. If he catches
1t as it touches somebody that per-
son must take his place in the CEN
ire. If it is caught in the air the
player whose hands it last left may
give a forfeit.
In that way a game of forfeits
may be started. There are many
amusing penalties and forfeits that
could be made interesting out of
doors.
Trades is one old and Jolly game.
The boys and girls are divided into
equal sections. After each has
chosen his trade, they take positions
on two lines facing each other and
about eight feet apart. The side
that is to present it's trade first is
accosted by the other side with the
impertinent question:: "Who are
you?" to which the first line answers
People" The next question put to
them is Where do you come
from?" the answer to which is
philadelphia" New York" or any
city the trades people may adopt
as their native one. Finally the
question; Whats your trader"
is offered, to which line No. l, now
thoroughly exasperated, answers,
Find out" The different members
in the line then begin to act the
trade they have chosen. They 60
through the pantomime three times
and if the other side has not
guessed by that time the first side
may reveal the trade and the sec
ond side must then go through the
performance. If, however, the other
side does guess the trade correctly
they have the right to race the first
side; as many as are caught by
the pursuers before a distance is
reached are then added to the pur-
suing side, which in turn presents
its trade in the same way, and so
the game goes on until all the boys
anH eri9-1e haa,,
to the winning side The last one
caught is given a prize.
Small children love to draw. Why
not supply each with a pencil and
paper and give a prize to the child
that executes the best drawing of
a flower, or bird, or butterfly with
in fifteen minutes?

JUDICIAL TERSENESS.

If brevity is the soul of wit, Judge
Taylor, X. c., has not many rivals
among his judicial brethren. Sum-
ming up a case at Liverpool which
lasted several hours, he said no more
than this: "Gentlemen, you have
heard both Sides 1t is for you to say
which you believe" Often enough
that is all that judicial cummings UP
amount to, but few judges have the
courage to- sum up so summary.
Even this does not represent Judge
Taylors best effort in the way of
saving his breath. A few years ago
he delivered himself of what is sup
posed to be the shortest summing up
on record. He turned to the jury,
raised his eyebrows inqulringly and
remarked: well, gentlemen" The
art of brevity could no further 60

Davie.

Frank, slapping him on the back,

He squinted his eyes in a profess

a tone that was muffled because
there were several nails between his

Davie watched him with respect

puzzling his brain over the why and
wherefore of the pencil marks.

Little Wendell Holmes Emerson, of
Boston, was resting sedately with his
book in the park shortly after a pic
mic dinner He had eaten too much.
He knew perfectly well he had eaten
too much and he was very much sur

prayed fervently that no one would
notice his condition.
Just then a kindly old lady appear
ed and sat down beside him.

By this time the kind old lady was
firmly settled.

1t was wonderful to see how the
young Mr.. Emerson recovered his

outlandish grammar should dare TO
criticise him was unbelievable.
