She is given 100 beans, 30 slices of potato, and 10 minutes start. She has to lay a track, as crooked as she pleases, dropping a bean every 3 or 4 yards and a slice of potato every ao. Aftw ten minutes' run the deer has to hide. The t ailers follow her, picking up the beans and potato shces. Each bean counts i point, each slice of potato 2. The one who finds the deer scores 10 for it. Apache Relay Race One band is pitted against another, to see who can carry a message and bring a reply in shortest time, by means of relays of runners. One-quarter of a mile is far enough for an ordinary race This divides up even 55 yards to each of eight runners. Ihe band is taken out by the Chief, who drops scouts at con- venient distances, where they await the arrival of the other runner, and at once take the letter on to the next, and there await the return letter. A good band of 8 can carry a letter a quartar of a mile and ormg the answer in about 3 minutes.
