- (continued from previous page)"Quades" is a game which is very frequently played in the country at the present time. It is easy to play. Each man gets a small stone and pitches it towards a large stone and if he is the nearest to the goal he gets two points.

- Clock Golf is a very nice game which I play at home. It is played on a course of level land. A hole is made in the middle of a square plot and twelve pegs are placed round this square at an equal distance apart as sown in diagram.
Each person tries to get a ball into the hole from no. 1 position in the least number of attempts. Then all stand at fig. 2(continues on next page)- Collector
