- Passport is played by any number of boys. It is a very amusing game, and is played as follows.
The boys close their eyes and move away a short distance and call something that is near to them and if one guesses the wrong thing he runs into the house. In the meantime the others make up the name of some great warrior such as Wolfe Tone. Then the boys call in the boy who is outside and they shout "Passport". If the boy says the correct name, he comes in and choses a boy to go out and take his place out-side, while the others make up another name.
