VACATION MAZE
John Dukes McKee
This is a game that two or more may play.
Each player has two small buttons of one
color. He must start one of these "counters"
on one side of the schoolhousc and the other
on the opxsite side. Take one large button
and mark one side of it with crayon. This but
ton is tossed into the air and if it comes down
with the crayon-marked side up, it counts two
for the player. The other side counts one. If
a player throws a two, he may move one coun
ter two points, or each counter one point. If
a player's man stops on the same space as a
rival's man, the rival must take his next move
backward. If a player has both his men on
one space, his rival cannot pass. The first
player getting his men to the finish line wins!

Come On In!
- Ruth Dixon
Here is a game that eight
or more children can have fun
playing either outdoors or in
side a large room.
"It" stands inside a circle
which the other players make
by joining hands. "It" runs
around inside the circle and
taps one of the players to
chase him. Then they both
run around outside the circle
(some distance outside, if you
like) and if "It" isn't caught
after three times around, the
players in the circle cry,
"Come on in!" and raise their
clasped hands.
If the chaser doesn't tag
"It" before he gets inside, he
becomes "It" next time.

What have you already got?
A question mark without a
dot.
Behind the mark there blows
a banner,
Its plumage flowerlike in
manner.
The question mark is going
to be
A neck that curves most
gracefully.

The pond now glides a silver
