CHINESE PEACE STICKS IS A HOPPING GOOD GAME I Here's a game from China a great favorite with the almond-eyed lads for many years. Lay ten sticks or lathes in a row in front of each player. At the signal "Go I" the players start hopping over the sticks on one foot When a player has hopped over the last stick, he picks it up and throws it away, then without putting down his other foot, starts back again. At the beginning of the row, he picks up the last stick and throws it away, and so goes back and forth until the last stick is gone.

The changing of the plants from the green of summer to autumnal colorings of brilliant reds and yel lows will take many people to the woods to gather briKht-Colorcd specimens. One of the first plants to respond to the change of season is the poison ivy. Poison ivy usually grows as an erect, low shrub, varying in height from a few inches above the ground to two feet, or if it be of n climb ing nature, it will ascend trees to considerable hciRlits. The poison ivy always has three leaflets and late in the summer it bears clusters of vhite fruits. It is by these that one may distinguish it from the Virginia creeper, with which it is often confused. The Virginia creeper has five leaflets and purple black berries.

After the fisting has ceased, drink a bit of- the mixture. It will seem flat and tasteless, for thc acid (lemon) has been neutral ized by the base (soda). Some salts which are made by the combination of an acid and a base contain more of one substance than thc other. Cream of tartar, which you will probably find on your kitchen shelf, is an acidic salt. That means that it contains more than enough acid to neutralize it. Sometimes as water flows through the ground, it collects salts which are carried along in solution in the water. The presence of the salts makes the water "hard."

A football team without a for ward pass cannot hope -in these days to win games. Every team should have a good passer who has speed and accuracy. For the forward pass the ball should be gripped in the palm of the hand with the fingers extended around it, and clamped over the lacing. The thumb should be stretched around as far as possible to the other side-lace. The little finger should come up to a point about the middle of the ball. All the others should be behind it, well spread out so that they may be used in throwing the ball forward. AflPT tflff hall hilfl Km.ii rirnnnrlw placed in the right hand it should be carried straight back over the right shoulder to a point about a foot behind the shoulder and about head high. Then it should be passed forward directly over the shoulder, fingers pulling downward to make it spiral. The passer should try to make it easy for the receiver bv throwing the ball as easily as possible, so that it falls into his arms instead of shooting into them. In order to Kerfect this he must throw the ball igher, which requires more skill. Such a pass is a great deal easier to catch than a low, fast pass, and is also harder to block or intercept.
