HOW TO PLAY
6daytBACKGANN0N

counting point a man may be re-
moved from the highest counting
point
In the above example If point 5
and point 6 were both vacant, two
men must be removed from the
highest counting point which con-
tains a man. This must be done
even when it forces the player to
leave a blot
If there were three men on point
4 the player would be obliged to
remove two of these men for his
five and six if point 5 and point
we're vacant.
When moving up men in the
home table, the move can be made
anywhere in the table provided the
points are clear TO permit the move.
If doublets are thrown four men
instead of two must either be
thrown of or moved up. A player
may always choose whether to bear
of man or move him up.
THE player who first bears all
l. his men off the board wins.
If the loser has borne even one
of his men from the board, it is a
single game.
If the loser has not borne a sim
gle man from the board, it is a
CANNON or double game.
If the loser has not borne a sin
gle man from the board and still
has man in the winners inner
table or on the bar, it is a back
CANNON or ripple game.
The scoring by games, gammons
and backgammons has been fea-
ture of the game over many gen.
erationS Of play. Much of the fine
strategy of play revolveS around le-
Ultimate risks taken with the re-
ward and glory in view of a pos
sible CANNON or backgammon.
Some of the modern players are
scoring by the number of check
ers left on the board at the end of
the game and emitting the gam
mons, but it is very doubtful
whether this is an improvement on
the older method, and whether this
change will continue.

Elegance Is
Keynote OF
Nez0 Styles
BY FRANCES PAGET


NEW YORK, Sept. 27.-Viewing
models launched by Paris this sea-
son one is impressed by the at
tention accorded women types. Ru-
morS that fashion had grown up
have been justified.
Autumn clothes are ladies clothes
in so many instances that one feels
that special Difference has. been paid
the woman who has the means to
indulge herself in the extravagant
fashions exploited.
Both in line and in fabric, and
certainly in color as well, the wom-
an rather than the jeune file has
been considered. of shades" are
less trying than clear, bright ones,
and long skirts and nodded lines
are attributes of dignity.
Rich, rather heavy fabrics and
a lavish use of fur are other items
on the score Of elegance and soph-
istication. Only in millinery does
one find a tendency to balk at
this mature Interpretation of the
mode.
Many a hat has its origin in a
baby bonnet and so many of them
expose the brow and eyes to the
ruthless glare of the light that one
wonders how the brow that is fur
rowed with care" will survive this
cruel treatment.
Hats are worn far back on the
head and seem more trying than
kind, excepting to the very young
who are in the can-wear- anything
class.
True, there are some brimmed
models-and many that have an
elongated side line, but-not one
eyebrow but two, and some of the
hairline also is now being exposed
to the vulgar gaze of the multitude.

tables, jellies, cream and cottage
cheese, dried fruits and nuts run
through the food chopper, all make
acceptable filling and offer variety.
Plain, hard-cooked eggs or those
stuffed with finely chopped vege-
tables are wholesome and filling.
Cabbage Good in Salad
A finely minced cabbage and
pineapple salad might take the
place Of the proverbial potato sal
adj This salad as we'll as the egg
dish helps to supply the vitamins
SO often lacking in the average
picnic lunch
A thermos bottle of milk and
small can of homemade chocolate
syrup or can Of one of the many
good prepared cocoas on the mar
ket makes it possible to produce a
festive milk shake with very little
effort.
The dessert should be kept simple.
Well-washed fruit and plain cakes
or cookies are suitable and adequate.
Eggs and Bacon Tasteful
If hot food is wanted, eggs can
be scrambled over a campfire and
bacon can be frizzled on long green
sticks by the same fire.
Older children will love this fea-
ture and may help with the bacon.
A soup or stew for tiny children
can be reheated over a small fire
quickly and easily.
AS soon as children are old
enough to take part in outings they
should be taught that a picnic is a
cooperative affair and allowed to
do their snare.
The obligation on every picnicker
to be positive that no bit of the
camp fire is left burning and that
no scraps Of food or paper are left
about the picnic place should be i'm
pressed on children even when they
go on their first picnic excursion.

Is
Beacon on
Lite;S Way
BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

The Memphis Press-Scimitar has
been running a series Of interviews
with the married Of that city. in
which their husbands are discussed
the idioSyncraSies. the hobbies, the
recreations. the oddities and the
dispositions OF the men.
And, strange as it may seem, the
general tone of them all is: My
husband, in spite of these peculiari-
ties. is just about the incest husband
in the country"
With divorce news on one side
and murder and racketeering on the
other. here is'a feature that bids us
believe that all is not lost, matri-
monially speaking. Such stories,
too, are splendid things, because it
is not to be denied that news in gen.
eral leans toward the bizarre Ia
the abnormal.
Play Up Sordid Size
The very fact that it is unusual
makes it news. Nevertheless, some
times after reading our papers we
arrive at the conclusion that the
normal does not exist.
A thousand divorced women to
one wife are interviewed or mar
riage. Seldom does any mere mar
ried man make the front page and
seldom does one who has spent a
lifetime with one woman get any
space.
Memphis is pretty representa-
tive city In every other corner of
this land, in towns, large, small and
middle sized, the same conditions
prevail. There abide countless hun
dreds Of women who love their hus-
bands and are proud of them, and
men who go to work each day
adoring their families and filed
with fond dreams for the future of
their children.
Marriage Is Enduring
1t is upon men and women like
this that the hope of the nation de-
ponds. We do not need to fear that
they will fail.
And one of the most wearisome
things in the world is that martial
troubles always are played up, in
the paper in the movies, on the
stage. The jokes about cuarreline
husbands and wives are endless and
tTite.
It's astonishing that marriage has
survived the ordeals that have been
put upon it. But it endures, my
friends, it endures. a shining bea-
con in world murky with sordid-
ness and tragedy and woe.

BY ELIZABETH C. BOYDEN
Written for NEA Service

THE players first definite OBJ
4 iective in the game o. back
CANNON is to get all of his fiji
teen men safely into his home
table.
The two men who start in the
opponents home table have the
longest road to travel, first through
the opponents outer table, then into
the players own outer table and
finally into the players home table.
Sometimes it is necessary for good
strategy to leave blots exposed while
travelling around the board, but if
hit by the opponent these men are
forced to re-enter in the opponents
inner table and re-travel the entire
distance.
The two players move in opposite
directions, but must each keep to
his own prescribed path, as no
backward moves are allowed.
Once a players men are all in his
own inner table, he may begin to
remove them entirely from the
board. This must be done in &C
cordance with the throw of the dice.
The points are numbered for this
purpose from one to six beginning
at the outer edge of the home table.
Point 6 is. therefore, next to the
bar.
VXTHEN bearing the men from
w the home table a player has
several options as follows:
/. He may bear off a man for
each number on the dice as thrown,
provided he has men on these
points.
2. He may bear off one man from
point coinciding with one of the
numbers thrown, and move a man
in the table for the other number.
8. He may move men in his inner
table for both the numbers thrown
provided the points are clear for
him to do so.
When the opponent still has a
man or men in the players home
table it sometimes is very impor-
tant to move a man up in prefer
ence to throwing one off if by so
doing the player can avoid leaving
a blot.
If, while bearing off men from
the home table, blot is hit by the
opponent, this blot must be placed
upon the bar, entered in the OPP
ponent's inner table before another
man can be borne off the board.
IF the point indicated by the num-
4 Der thrown is vacant, player
is obliged to move a man from a
higher counting number whenever
he is able to do so.
For example: A player throws a
five. There is no man on point
5. but there are men on point e.
The player is obliged to move a man
from point 6 to point l provided
point l is clear.
If point l is blocked by the op-
pOnent the player loses the throw.
If the player had two men on point
6 and had thrown a five and six he
would bear of one man from point
6 for the play Of the six and if
point l were blocked by the enemy
he would be obliged to leave a blot
On point 6.
II there is no man on any higher

Science, which has given to man these ter
rife speeds, has as yet no positive limit. The
