Excerpt from Indoor Games: For Children and Young People Hide and Seek is a game that will remain prime favourite as long as youth and high spirits last. The players divide into sides, and one half hide themselves away in any available nook or corner. At a given signal the search begins, the game being for the players who are in hiding to get home before they are found and caught by any one of the opposite side. Instead of a signal being given them, the opposite side, or hunters, are sometimes told they can begin to search after they have counted up to a hundred. This is really the better way, as a sharp hunter can tell from the sound of the signal the whereabouts of the players in hiding.

Excerpt from Games for Boys Today there is a wide-spread and very whole some interest in recreation. No longer is the problem that of stirring up the interest of the American people. They already have it. The need now is for a varied and attractive recreation program. We need original suggestions and pro grams that are practicable, clearly defined, and easily understood and adaptable to the great out doors. We have been inclined in the past to do too much indoors. We must try all that we can to cultivate a love on the part of the American youth for out-of-door life. Our games must be simple, happy, social, and yet physically active. We must find activities adaptable to age, strength, and sex. We must learn how to handle large numbers. Our games must not be over-fatiguing. They must have rich psychological content so that they will be in tensely interesting and compelling. We need those forms of physical entertainment which te quire very little in the way of equipment.

Excerpt from My Book of Indoor Games That is the guiding purpose of the author. The reader will find in this book a collection of old and present day games. The student of Play has long realized that there are no new games, that all our games of today are built on the old timers. The purpose of My Book of Indoor Games is to furnish amuse ment, entertainment and to be the means of sociability. So very often the question comes up - What shall we do In many cases this book serves only as a reminder, the games and parlor tricks are well known but cannot be recalled at the critical moment. A combination, such as this, of the best of the old-fashioned games and a carefully compiled list of the games of today will furnish much help to the young in their search of entertainment and amusement. But the book will be equally useful to grownups. The author has seen staid, respectable people play Lubin Loo with as much zest and spirit as the youngest group of children. All of us have played Going to Jerusalem. The spirit must be there; there is nothing so contagious as the spirit of play.
