Junior TREASURE Chest fd.lfd by MARJOBIE BABBOWS, Ediloi of The Children'. Hour Let's Draw a Wolf By Ann Davidow The timber wolf is nature's child. He runs about completely wild. His shaggy coat is thick and tough. It keeps him warm when the weather's rough. On a winter's night that's when he prowls About the woods and howls and howls. He wails with such a noisy yap. You'd think his toe had sprung a trap. (Reprinted by request) Egg and Bottle Trick By Ragna Eski! For this trick you need a clean, empty quart milk bottle, a peeled hard-boiled egg, and a kitchen match. The egg obviously is too large to drop into the bottle. Light the match, drop it into the bottle, place the egg on top, and the vacuum created by the burn ing match will draw the egg into the bottle. Alphabet Scramble By John O. Cole Each player is given a sheet of paper and a pencil. Each person writes the letters of the alphabet beginning with A and going to Z, but they must not be in order on the page or in a straight line. Write them all over the sheet; some can even be upside down. When everyone finishes, exchange papers. At a signal, all try to connect the alphabet letters by drawing a line from A to the B to the C, etc., like connecting dots. The first to connect his alphabet in the right order wins. Numbers can be written and connected in the same way. Other variations include the months of the year, or boys' and girls' names. Use names beginning with different letters. Connect them in alphabetical order. Knock 'em Over! By Ransom Moore Make three balls by wadding up three socks tightly. Place six empty milk car tons near a wall to form a pyramid. Across the room, each player takes turns trying to knock down the cartons with his three balls. The first to knock over all six with one ball makes 12 points. Knock over all six with two balls, and you make eight. If you don't get all of them, count one for each knocked over. The first player to get 25 points wins. A Magical Move By Gladys M.
