  1. (continued from previous page)
    The boy who gets the four bottles down on succesion wins all the money. The boys of course get four stones each to knock the bottles down with.

  2. Two girls stand at the ends of a rope and wind it. Then one of them steps in and they start saying: a tinker, a tailor, a soldier, a sailor, a rich man, a poor man, a beggar man, a thief. If the girl breaks down at “a tinker” she is called a tinker.
