(twice 7)--the next player would then say "15" the next "16," and the
next would, of course, say "Buzz" because the figure 7 occurs in the number 17. If one of the players forgets to say "Buzz" at the proper time, he is out. The game then starts over again with the remaining players, and so it continues until there is but one person remaining. If great care is taken the numbers can be counted up to 70, which, according to the rules before mentioned, would, of course, be called Buzz. The numbers would then be carried on as Buzz 1, Buzz 2, etc., up to 79, but it is very seldom that this stage is reached. * * * * * "I APPRENTICED MY SON." The best way of describing this game is to give an illustration of how it is played. The first player thinks of "Artichoke," and commences: "I apprenticed my son to a greengrocer, and the first thing he sold was an A." Second player: "Apple?" "No." Third player: "Almonds?" "No." Fourth player: "Asparagus?" "No." Fifth player: "Artichoke?" "Yes." The last player, having guessed correctly, may now apprentice his son. No player is allowed more than one guess. |
