Changing times have made slaves Of us all, especially during the last few years, so that we have not taken time or even had the time for frivo- lous celebrations of hol idays. This season, however, in spite of the h.c.l. and the many internal disturb ances we are having, we can really enjoy few filings at carefree gayety. The young people must keep up the morale of the nation since their elders are all arguing and settling graver affairs.
 How many of us have ever heard of the game "clumps?" Not very fair cognomen, but loads of fun for congenial crowd. Two captains are chosen and they take turns in choos- ing sides, This accomplished, each captain sends one of his team out of the room. The two sent agree on the name of a person or object, real or fictitious, to be guessed by both sides. Returning to the room, each man or girl sits down among the players of the opposing side, who tries to guess

may be made to read with two mean ings, are telegraph, reformations, old England. These may be turned to read, "great help" "to sin far more" and "golden land." These meanings are somewhat synonymous, which makes the game especially interesting for older girls and boys. In France the grownups play the game with small pieces of wood resembling dom inoes, having capital letter at one end and small letter at the other.
 A game for which a small prize may be given is called "Clipped Squares" Each player is given square of pasteboard, which he cuts apart in three or more pieces and passes to the player on his left. Each player is given three minutes to try and piece the squares together. Fail ing or solving, he passes it on and re- ceives the next lot of pieces. When the squares have gone the rounds, the player who has pieced the most of them together wins the prize Often the person who starts a square is un- able to put it together when he sees it again.
 The coin and goblet game is one which is old to grandma, but which has probably never been tried by her small grandchildren. First thing grandma must do in this case is to loan three pennies, or preferably quar- ters, to the little ones, who then bor-

Many laughs may be had from the ridiculous questions it is necessary to ask during the guess ing. A forfeit system for asking out of turn, or answering other than the rules of the game allow for, adds to the excitement.
 Old-fashioned anagrams, similar to logomachy, may fittingly be revived for the children of the present gener- ation. Printed letters of the alpha bet may be cut from a calendar and pasted on stiff paper. One player forms several words from his alphabet and passes them to the players, who try to see who can arrange the letters in their proper sequence. This game is the more exciting if some one not in the game gives number of words to all the players. Some words which may be spelled in two ways, or which

This maxim was shouted loud and

The steel interests OF the country

Working first through the con-
structinn trades dependent OH the

"freczing out contractors employ

Cd OF refusing them fabricated steel
The policy was carried out Indirect
" by the Iron League Ercctors' as
sociation and the National Erectors
association, both with offices at 2S6
Fifth avenue, the Bridge Builders
and Structural society, anad the Ma
tional Fabricators' association.
On November 20, 1919, a super
organization, the National Steel Fab
ricators' association, was formed
which, together with the steel cor
poration, controlled o5 per cent of
the steel produced in the country.
The Bridge and Structural Iron
Worlars' union had about as much
chance Of organizing the half-nillior
workers in their field as William q
