THE TRAVELER'S ALPHABET

The players sit in a row and the first begins by saying, "I am going
on a journey to Athens," or any place beginning with A. The one
sitting next asks, "What will you do there?" The verbs, adjectives,
and nouns used in the reply must all begin with A; as "Amuse Ailing
Authors with Anecdotes." If the player answers correctly, it is the
next player's turn; he says perhaps: "I am going to Bradford." "What
to do there?" "To Bring Back Bread and Butter." A third says: "I am
going to Constantinople." "What to do there?" "To Carry Contented
Cats." Any one who makes a mistake must pay a forfeit.
