The following come within the category: Fanning the Feather: Seat the floor. Each child grasps the edge of this sheet with his left hang, = as to hold the sheet about six inches from the floor, his right hand holds In the middle of the sheet lies a feather. When the mother-hostess blows a whistle, all the children begin fanning the feather, each little player trying to keep the feather as far away from himself as possible. In one full minute the hostess blows the whistle again, and the child who is nearest 'to the feather must drop out of the game. Then the whistle is blown again--and the fun repeat- ed. At last only two children re- main at the sheet, and the one who is farthest from the feather when the whistle sounds for the last time, wins @ prize. This is such a popai- lar game that it may be repeated weveral times if the hostess has pro- vided 'several inexpensive PrIZes-- such as lollypops or ten-cent bal- loons, ors on stiff cardboard, then cut each ready for winter.

Spearing Peanuts: This is not a new game, but it is one which will never be laid aside. Two quarts | of unshelled peanuts are placed in a large meat pan. Each child is provided with a hatpin. At a sig- nal, all begin spearing peanuts, each player removing the nut from the point of his hetpin as soon as spear- ed and placing it on the floor in front of him before attempting to spear more. To prolong the fun, all of the nuts may be tossed back into the pan after each player has counted those he Has speared, and the game may be repeated. of course the first score will be add. ed to the seeond, when thie is done.
