LET §$ “Say, Shorty, if I give you a dime, will you see if you can ooze yourself into this cute little booth and get a number for me?” PLAY by Norman Anthony REVIVAL WEEK THE NEW PARCHEESI] Juays and books seem to have re- vivals, so why not games? “We'll bite.” say you, “Why no! Therefore we dedicate this week as Parcheesi Week! Nay, do not chortle in raucous merriment! We quote no less an authority than \lexander Woolcott, the — well-known dramatic crit “Already the best people are absorbed in a revival of a thrillir me, the mag- nificent and now incredibly corrupted » of Parcheesi. The gamblers ha n this innocent diversion to. their hearts, and with the use of chips and the development. of a_ kitty, have turned a once tranquil entertainment into a contest. Doubtless. the hook stores will soon be selling Miss Minnie Spink’s ‘Parcheesi in. Ten Les- sons’ or Foster’s ‘Easy Parcheesi,’ and we expect soon to see the newspapers starting departments devoted to answer the shower of questions which will surely canny arise. Relying upon Mr. Woolcott as a prophet, therefore, we will divulge the innermost secrets of this famous Hindu game to our readers, but we disclaim all responsibility for broken homes — and heads. After having rummaged around in the attic and having brought to light the old Parcheesi board, the next step is to get a plentiful supply of chips. Then a red and a blue pencil. If you haven't such thing in the house, steal the children’s paints, or, as a last resort, use mother’s lipstick. With these implements, fill in cight spaces around the board with red, and eight with blue, so that there will be one red and one blue space in each alle Do not place the red and blue spaces together, Mfter this has been done, call in a couple of the neighbors, or better yet, get the landlord and his wife, and you may win your rent back! The modern game is played with the same rules as the old one.” Before starting each player antes five chips in the pot, or “Home,” and naturally the first one to get all his men home wins the pot. However, with the different forfeits, said pot will be con- siderably increased before the game is | Whenever a player lands on he must ante one chip | n he sends a man home 1 also for every over. red or blue s in the pot. he must ante one chip, turn that he cannot pl Another cute little forfeit’ that the “crap” shooters have added is a two chip ante for a player throwing a I-I, a 2-I or a double 6. With this throw the player is entitled to | his move, but must pay the forfeit. Then just to make it a little harder there is a booby prize, or rather a booby forfeit, in the shape of a ten chip ante for the last man in! This results in a mad race to see which of the three losers has the honor of giving the poor winner an extra bonus. As you can readily see it is a merry little game, but we can just h . | Parcheesi hound murmuring, “My, how the old game has changed!” Poor Little Rich Girl—With this old divorce trial going on it’s so lonesome I don’t know what to do!
