The little boy here pictured is the oldest son of Frederick William, crown prince of Germany and the grandson of the kaiser. Because of the war in Europe the little boy does not see his father very often. Prince Frederick William is leading one of the German armies now fighting in France. Prince William Frederick was bornJuly, 1906, so he will be nine years old on his next birthday. He has three younger brothers, Louis Ferdinand, Hubert and Frederick. It seems rather queer to folks on this side of the world that two brothers should have the same Christian name but that i$ n custom of royalty that has little favor in the greatest repub. tic of the world. Some day, perhaps, William Frederick may come to be the ruler of the German people. An Amusing Game. In the game of "How Do You Like It?" one of the company leaves the room and the others fix up some word to be guessed by him when he returns. He then goes around asking each of the company "How do you like it?" It is better to select a word having a va- riety of meanings, as it is more did!. cult to guess. Suppose the word "stick" to be selected. One might an- swer that he liked it when he was cut walking; another, when be was seal- ing a letter; another, when he met e savage'dog, etc. If the,questloner is unable to guess the word the (first time Ile goes around again, asking, "When do you like it?" and, if not successful this time he asks, ''Where do you like it?" Failing in tree trials he must re- tire and let another word, be selected. Succeeding, lie must point out the per- son who gave the clew, who must pay a forfeit and go out to be puzzled in tuna. A Geographic Game. A game which is entertaining as well as instructive is played as follows: There may be Any number of players, and it will be enjoyed by people of all ages. Let the beginner give some geo- graphical word -the name of a coun- try, city, river or mountain. The next player continues with a name whose first letter is the last letter of the word given by the preceding me l Yer. Thus supposeU PI the first word given is Albany, the second must begin with Y Yucatan, for Instance. Number three must give a place whose initial letter Ls N and so on. When a player fails to have a name ready he is dropped from the game, and the one who can play the longest is, of course, the winner. Riddle.
