In Indian Boy’s Odd Description of
the Horse.
Here is the description of a horse
written by an Indian boy, a student
at Carlisle, Pa. Do you think it is
correct, and, if not, how would you
improve it ?
“The horse is a very noble quad
ruped, but when ho is angry lie will
not do so. He is ridden on the spi
nal cord by the bridle, and sadly the
driver places his foots on the stir
rups and divides his lower limbs
The leader of the game then col
lects the figures nnd with paste or
mucilage attaches them to the card
board on the wall, the black side of
the figure out, and each figure with
•its number beside it.
Now give to each player a sheet
of paper with numbers written
down the left hand side, as many
numbers as there are drawings, and
ask them to write opposite to each
number the name of the animal that
the numbered figure is intended to

French Game.
A game adapted from the French
that is very popular among the lit
tle people of America is a good test
for the memory. It is played as
follows:
The children must sit in a cirfcle,
and one, as leader, announces in this
fashion:
“1 pack mv trunk} and in it I
put”— mentioning some article
used iu traveling, as gloves, brush
or cologne.
The next child begins then, say-
. ing what the leader has said and!
adding another article, and so on *
around the circle, each child re-^ InQ Gcinnon Compiiny
peating all the articles mentioned*
ny the leader in their correct order
and then adding ono more to the
list, which after awhile assumes
lengthy proportions.
If one boy or girl forgets ono ar
ticle or puts it in the wrong order,
he or she must drop out of the game,
and the last child remaining has
the privilege of starting a new game.
