THE MONTHS.

The leader need be the only one who understands this game. He asks,
"What month are you going away in?" One player might answer
"September." He then asks, "What will you wear?" "What will you take
with you?" and "What will you do?" All the answers must be given with
the initial letter of the month chosen. For instance, the answers to
the above questions may be: 1st, "Silk stockings," 2d, "Sardine
sandwiches," 3d, "See the sights."

The answers will probably be mixed as the players do not know the
trick. Each one who misses pays a forfeit, and the leader questions
the next player. When one or two do catch on, the more ridiculous they
make their answers, the funnier the game.
