BLOW FEATHER
Blow football is an old favourite game. But have you ever plaj'ed blow feather? It is even more fun than blow football, because the feather flies about so, and it is just the game indoors when it is raining too much for you to go out. The players divide in two sides, each side sitting at one end of the table. Now every player is given a stick of macaroni, and then a feather is placed in the centre of the table. A width of about 12 inches is ; marked off at each end of the table j to make a. goal. At the word “Go!’’ both sides blow at the feather through their sticks of macaroni with all their might, trying to get goals. The side to score the most goals in a given time wins the game. But I don’t think you’ll find much scoring because every- j one will be laughing so much. A RIDDLE IN RHYME Fir trees do well if sand is near, i While other trees grow best in clay, j And some trees flourish, so we hear. Upon the hearth; now, which are I they? You cannot call them to your mind? The answer’s “ashes,” you will And!
