For Your Thanksgiving Fun.

For Your Thanksgiving Fun.
BY CAROLYN sHERwIN BAILEY.
Just as important as the Thanks
giving dinner is the fun that comes
afterward. You may add much to
the fun if you have some game ma
terial ready, simple and easy to
make, but sure to help with the
good time.
Shadow Characters.
Stretch a sheet tightly and with
out wrinkles at one end of the room.
Darker the room with the exception
of lamp that you set on a table in
front of the sheet. One player is
seated in a chair, with his back to
the light facing the sheet, and tries
to guess the names of the others by
means Of their shadows shown on
the sheet as they pass behand her,
but in front of the light. The play
ers make this harder by, hopping,
liInping, making faces and hurrying.

Use the 2xl0 size Greatly 1AxoH).
Lifts--The lifts supporting the
plank should be very strong and low
to keep the weight near the ground.
They are sometimes made of 2x10
material. Another way is to use
hardwood 2x4s as shown in the
sketch. Section A is a 2x4 about
nine and one-half inches long and
section B is 2x4 about 20 inches
long, shaped to serve as outrigger
support. Section A should be fas-
tened to the top of the sled with
ringbolts or similar device to give
the sled rocker motion. Spike plank
TO B. On the front sled, the two
sections OF the lift should be held
together by a long one-half inch
kingbolt CO... Build the lift OF the
rear sled in the same way but use
two kingbolts at Z and F.
Outriggers-A bobsled should
have outriggers to save legs in tip

and fastened to several crosspieces
shaped like B.
notwithstanding wheels or
similar devices are likely to weaken
the support in front or prove I'M
