On the The object of this game is to teaehl the children to set the table correctly for a meal. A teacher sald recently that she was almost grown up be.. fore she knew on which aide the plate the knife should be placed. In many homes the children help to arrange the table and clear it away and they might as well learn the graceful and proper way in the first place. Learn- ing through a game is such fun that rules are taken as sweets and not as medicine. Choose one child to be the plate ard ask him to take his stand in the) front of the room. The plate then chooses the knife and fork. The chil- dren who represent these must go to their proper places, one to the right, the other to the left, of the plate. If they make a mistake, others may be chosen. b The knife, then says, "I need a spoon." The child who represents the Epoon must go to the right of the knife. The fork then asks for an- other fork, which may be the salad, or pie fork. It is best to keep the table arrangement simple, as many homes do not have elaborate service. The plate may then decide what' else he needs to complete the service. If the child cannot do this, question; should be asked of the class to Bee who will remember that the glass and the bread and butter plate have not been added. As the children are selected. they go to the place they would occupy on the table, until the most necessary articles have been gathered and are represented by chil- dren standing in well-spaced and cor- rect positions. Then it suggestions are asked for, from the class, a few more things may be added, such " the cream and sugar dishes. a nap kin and extra dishes as desired. Several of these groups may be formed in the front of the room, thereby giving opportunity to those who failed to not the table correctly the first time. In cqnnection with the game, it might be helpful to ask the children to bring pictures, cut from the pa- pers and magazines, showing both The Table Game. ADAMSON’S ADVENTURES-BY O. Jacobuon.

Possibly the children may find a few short articles on table ar- rangement, or they may be encour- aged to tell of any beautiful party tables they have seen. This game may be varied to fit the holidays by having the children plan to represent tho Thanksgiving and Christmas table and others which may be suggested. The ideas back of our table service which stand for neutness, convenience and beauty may easily be stressed by means of this game. Canada Now Fourth Greatest Tea Drinking Country. Each Canadian drinks over tour', pounds of tea per year, or practically: five times as much as our American cousins to the south of us. Great‘ Britain (including Northern Ire- land) leads the world in point of iii-l, sumption by using yearly over 400: million pounds (pearly 8N pounds! per capita). Then comes the United States with 100 million, but only! 9-10ths of a pound per capita. Next' comes Australia with 49 million and Canada with 36 million. No reliable statistics are available for China orl Russia. Both these countries con- sume a large amount of tea, but the per capita figure is very small. Tea is a very delicate vegetable growth, which deteriorates unless kept sealed. A bottle of ginger ale soon loses its flavor if exposed to the air. This is exactly what occurs in the use of tea. A great deal more tea would be used on this continent if the public were educated to demand fresh tea. Old tea is fiat and unpalatable.
