The writer some sometime time ago showed that It did not make any difference difference differ differ- ence whether whether-a a man on played the white or I r black squares or had th the single corner on th the th-e right or left so 80 far faras As the game is concerned for there are only so o many squares to play on any way but in order to play and use the books booM the board must be he played the way It is numbered an and It Is numbered With the the- Double Double Corner Corner Cor Cor- ner nem on the too right Tight and arid NO 1 begins on the ther second square in the first row and the

side aide of ot a game la always at the mercy of ot the other man as he can frequently fre ftc reverse the order of ot move and make the white side black and vice Versa I have often thrown Old Fourteenth into the white side colors reversed and had the other man guessing as to what it wasand wasand was wasand and how to play It It when if fC he had known own what it was he lIe would know when to make the throws that draw I think it is best to learn each game by position an and not by number or name so that when a mar map ma I has a certain position come up he knows what It Is and aud
