Each little lad was armed with a stick as big as he could well carry. This was his gun. Everybody was an enemy and had to be shot by everybody else. The shrubbery made a fine forest for such wee fighters and the battle waxed warm. “Now you, Hugo, fall down,” com manded Max. “Fall down. I shot you. You must fall down.” “I won't fall down shoot me. I shot you. down.” “Fall down,” screamed Hugo, red in the face and trembling with excite- ment. “Fall down. Bang, bang, I shot you. “Bang, bang, I shot you. fall down.” By this time the five friendly ene- mies were banging away at each other loudly and commanding each other to fall down dead. Nobody wanted to fall down dead any more, becau®e he couldn’t be shooting when he was dead, and shooting, “Bang, bang,” was the high fun of the game. Hugo, alw: excitable, now lost all control of himself and charged on Max with the flat of his “gun” and felled him with a smashing blow on the head. This time Max lay dead enough to satisfy even the battle-mad Hugo. “Come on, get up no You needn’t be dead any more,” said he, half fear- ful. Max was lying a bit too stil be real fun. Hugo was uneas were the others.

At least this a the advantage of novelty Meanwhile rhinestone hat ornaments are still much in evidence and tk are to be seen in all sorts of qua and amusing shapes. One little orna- ment represented a basket with the top partly open and from it protuding the head and long nmeck of a goose. To suit other fancies there are lizards, cats, dogs, horses, Pierrots, beetles |and birds of all descriptions. One {unusual little hat ornament consists |of an elaborately jeweled swan-like I bird with bits of real plumage inserted for the wings. closely Smocking is a sort of trimming that seen on the really cheap sort of fro Tt gives a tone of distinction to the clothes it adorns.

She looked at the four excited faces and slowly crumpled down on the floor, just like an empty sack. The four turned as one and ran, each for his own home, as fast as his legs could travel, and soon the neighbor- hood was in an upre “Such a dreadful child. Max when little Max was safely in bed and asleep. “Such an awful child. He might have killed poor Maxie. A dangerous child, He ought not to be allowed to play with other children.” No, indeed,” said the other moth- ers. *A dangerous child. Think of his hitting a little fellow with a big stick like that. Right over the head. Lucky he didn't fracture his skull. Might make a child foolish doing such a thing. 1 know a child who was made feeble-minded just that way. So Hugo was labeled dangerous and the little boys warned not to play with him. But nobody said anything about the shooting game that did the dam- age. When you let children play at battle and sudden death, they take on the battle mood and sudden death lurks in their spirits, if not in their bodies. Why allow children such games? No guns, no pistols, no wood- en swords for children's play. Play is creative in its force.
