  1. (continued from previous page)
    she hops into square, and, still hopping, kicks the stone out. (If her foot touches a line or if the stone goes into any other division she is disqualified.) Then she slides the stone into the division marked "two" and, kicking it first into the division marked "one" she gets it out. This is continued until "ten" is reached. The stone is kicked from "ten" into "Box". At any time during the game the player may hop into "Rest" and stand. Usually the winner of two rounds win the game.
