It is said that hoops are loosing their popularity, but be that as it

may, I am very sure they will never go out of fashion with the young
folk who delight in a good outdoor run, while at the same time they
find work for the eyes and the hand

But all boys, even trained foresters, are apt to get lost in strange

woods; but no matter the person, it is well to know what to do under
such circumstances
But all boys, even trained foresters, are apt to get lost in strange
woods; but no matter the person, it is well to know what to do under
such circumstances. As a rule the denser growth of moss on trees is on
the north side. This knowledge may help find the direction; but it is
better to carry a small pocket compass.

Pour water into a glass until it is nearly three parts full; then

almost fill it up with oil; but be sure to leave a little space
between the oil and the top of the glass
Pour water into a glass until it is nearly three parts full; then
almost fill it up with oil; but be sure to leave a little space
between the oil and the top of the glass. Tie a bit of string round
the glass, and fasten the two ends of another piece of string to it,
one on each side, so that, when you take hold of the middle of it to
lift up the glass it may be about a foot from your hand Now swing the
glass to and fro, and the oil will be smooth and unruffled, while the
surface of the water beneath it will be violently agitated.

Competition is said to be the life of trade, and it certainly adds

greatly to our interest in sports, but the boy who starts in to learn
by trying to compete is doomed to failure
Competition is said to be the life of trade, and it certainly adds
greatly to our interest in sports, but the boy who starts in to learn
by trying to compete is doomed to failure. There would be more success
in the end if we learned to go slower and so became more thorough in
the beginning.

There is an old saying, ‘Familiarity breeds contempt

There is an old saying, ‘Familiarity breeds contempt.’ While, like
many other home-made proverbs, this is only partly true, there can be
no doubt but that familiarity makes for confidence. The new recruit
may be as strong and brave as the veteran soldier, but the lack of
experience makes him nervous and unreliable under a fire which the
older soldier faces without a visible tremor of eye or hand.

Double-runners, or bob sleds, can be made at home, but the work

requires so much varied material, so many tools, and so much skill
that I shall not tell how the thing is done
Double-runners, or bob sleds, can be made at home, but the work
requires so much varied material, so many tools, and so much skill
that I shall not tell how the thing is done. A number of boys, who
desire to own a bob sled in partnership, can have the work done by a
wagon-maker, who knows just how, and has all the material to hand.
Such sleds, and they are usually well made, can be purchased at
reasonable prices and of any size from establishments that deal in
such articles. These can be found in any of our large cities. The safe
and sane sled, for the ordinary youngster, and the average hill, is
that which has a capacity for two–one is still better–and which is
steered by sitting astern and keeping one leg back to act as a runner.

The place of the pitcher”s box is fixed by measuring a line of fifty

feet from home to second base
The place of the pitcher”s box is fixed by measuring a line of fifty
feet from home to second base. The pitcher”s box should be five feet
six inches long by four feet wide. For batsman there are two
positions, one for the left and the other for the right handed. The
batsman”s stand is two rectangular spaces, each six feet long and four
feet wide. The nearest line should be six inches from the home plate,
and should extend three feet in front and three feet behind the center
of the home plate.

If you have to sleep on the ground, you should have a poncho, that is

a blanket faced with rubber on one side, to keep the body from too
close a contact with the wet earth
If you have to sleep on the ground, you should have a poncho, that is
a blanket faced with rubber on one side, to keep the body from too
close a contact with the wet earth. The ideal camping place is near
a good spring or beside a stream of pure water, in a natural grove
with plenty of dry dead wood in the vicinity. The dry wood should be
protected from rain if you are camping in the same place for some
time.
