As a result of a conference between |
Murray Scureman, now a member of |
the Kingston school board who was a
star athlete at both Wyoming
nary and Princeton, and is now one of |
the best known football officials in the |
valley, and Joseph McCracken, coach
of Kingston High sports, a suggestion
was submitted to the Kingston school
directors, and immediately passed by |
a unanimous vote, which will forbid
Kingston students from jumping from
one sport to another wthout a rest 2
of at least one month between.
Without the s™atest qualification
this new rule adopted by Kingston is
‘the most worthwhile decision ever of-
fered by a local school for the pro-
tection of its participants in sports.
The new Kingston rule will do much
holding back overanxious boys of their
own accord. As should always be the

NO FOOLING!
“A roguish sprite of fickle mind
Young April comes; for she doth bind
Her scanty flowers in posies sweet,
To throw them shyly at our feet.
HERE is simply no telling
when the custom of “fooling”
on the first of April began.
Certainly it was a long, long time
ago. Every one does it—even nat-
ure becomes frivolous with the
season as the little verse in-
dicates.
Some say the Gods started it at
the time Parnassus was a smart
resort. There is a story told that
one year at the beginning of April
Proserpina was playing about in
the Nysian meadows. She had her
lap filled with daffodils and was
having a very nice time with
them, when along came Pluto. He
thought she looked exceedingly
sweet, and picked her up, daffodils
and all, and transported her to his
own particular regions. The lady
made quite a fuss about it, and
those who heard her cries started
a search for her—which proved,
as have all similar expeditions, a
fool’s errand.
Other traditions say that it was
Mr. Noah who instituted the cus-
tom of sending on fruitless
errands on the first day of April,
¢ when upon a date corresponding
to this, he sent the first dove
from the ark—only to find that
the flood had not yet abated.
Good Fooling Is Best
Having ‘thus established irre-
DIrachable precedent, what shall
We do about it? How about an
Apr] Fool Party? Any sort of
foolirg jg fun, but good fooling is
more iyn,
On tie arrival of your guests
supply them all with Fool's Caps
—they put one in the mood for a
frolic. To start things going “The
Dance of the April Fools” is a
good game. Present each couple
with a little pasteboard mannikin
strung through his chest on a long
strong cord, having the hole a
trifie larger than the cord. The
gentlemen are then ranged along
one side of the room and the
ladies along the other, the mem-
bers of each couple standing op-
posite each other with the cord
stretched between them and the
little figure close up to the gentle-
man.
At a signal the couples begin
wriggling the cord, the object
being to make the little Fool cross
the room on the string to the lady
at the other side. The couple who
first succeed in doing this receive
a prize—a little ‘stuffed mannikin
resembling as nearly as possible
the mannikins on the strings.
“Guessing Eyes” a Good Game
» “Guessing Eyes” is another
good game. Divide your party
into two groups. Hang a sheet
across a doorway, and seat one
party on chairs before it, giving
each a scrap of paper and a pencil.
Cut openings in the sheet just
large enough for a pair of eyes
to. show through, and then have
the second group file, one by one,
behind the sheet, each pausing to
look through the openings and
show his or her eyes to the group
on the other side who must guess
to whom each pair of eyes belong
and note the name on the little
“Then as we think to seize the prize
It vanishes before our eyes
And April's Fools, thus lured with flowers,
Are sprinkled with quick, mocking showers.”
scrap of paper. Afterwards reverse:
the arrangement of: the two
groups. The guest who has made
the greatest number of correct
guesses receives a prize—perhaps:
a pair of sun glasses. :
“A Fool Sort of a Dance” for
which lively, confusing music
has been provided might follow
and then the supper for which the
following simple but attractive
menu is suggested—
The Menu
Hot Chicken Bouillon
Minced Chicken
and Olive Sandwiches
Toasted Cheese Sandwiches
Tiny Cream Puffs
Cinnamon Fingers
Frozen Raspberries
Coffee Four Fruits Fizz
The bouillon and chicken for
the ‘sandwiches can be bought in
cans.
Frozen Raspberries: Mash the
contents of one No. 2 can red
raspberries and remix with the
juice, discarding none of the pulpy
part. Add the juice of one lemon,
one-half cup sugar and one gnd
one-half cups water, and bring to
boiling to melt the sugar. Cool.
Freeze, using three parts ice and
one part salt. Makes about one
and one-fourth quarts. -
Four Fruits Fizz: Have ice cold
one No. 3 can prunes (juice only),
one cup pineapple syrup, one
cup orange juice, one-fourth cup
lemon juice and two bottl =
charged water; mix together

serve over cracked f--.*
