For tills g.-inie twve rendy before he ginning lo pln.v some Klips of paper oue it ii li.-ilf iuMies long by live or six indies wide. . Tbe number prepar ed must depend, of vniirse, on the number of piuyers. When nil are rondy to begin each one of the coiiipiiiiy Is provided with a slip of pnper. They lire then told to write upon uurli slip n sentence de scribing nil nctioii. . The sentences, however, must be without grammati cal subjects. To uiiike this plniu I will give yon n few HpfHnieii sentences: climbed up the side of the house with a ladder. sat down in the middle of the road and sang a song. went to bed with shoes and stock ings on. wore a bright red dress and a yellow hat. could not eat because his teeth were all gone.. When Xlie plnyers bnve written the required sentences ther ore told to fold each paper carefully so that the sentence will beon the inside. It Is better to fold It twice. The slips are then collected In n box. basket or lint mid shaken np thor oughly. 1 -. 'The receptee Is " then passed around, unil elicit player takes out" slip. Without unfolding it he writes on the outside a noun, accompanying It with "n." "nil'' or "the." as he sees tit. Proper nmnes may not be used. After this second writing the slips are again col lifted, thoroughly mixed as before mid again passed around. As each player draws H I he looks at the noun Unit lias fallen to his sharp, then unfolds the paper and connects the two parts of the sen tence .either menially or by writing the noun and Its article In the proper place. When nil are ready each player In his turn remls the completed sentenc e The result of this "patchwork" will often be exceedingly funny.
