LEAF BY LEAF

_Any number of players._

_Out of doors; indoors._

A basket of leaves is provided, no two of the leaves being alike.
These may be leaves from trees, shrubs, or plants, or flowers may be
used in the same way.

The players are each provided with a card or slip of paper and a
pencil, and are seated. One leaf is handed to the first player, who
passes it on to the next, and so on until it has made the round of the
group. Each player, in turn, if he can identify the leaf, writes the
name of it on a card. Each leaf is thus passed.

The host or hostess then reads a correct list, naming the leaves in
the order in which they were passed. The player wins who has the
largest number correct.

This is an especially pleasing game for nature students.

LITERARY LORE

_5 to 30 or more players._

_House party._

Each player is given a sheet of paper on which the following questions
are written. The player wins who writes correct answers to the largest
number of questions. This game may be worked up from the writings of
any poet or author. Examples are given from Tennyson and Longfellow.
The answers are appended here, but in playing the game should be read
by the host or hostess at the end.
