The Rainy Day.
Two little women and two big men make a team, and there can be four or five teams. The first lady of each team is supplied with an umbrella, and if you have been careful to get one that sticks a bit in going up—well!
The lady is to carry the umbrella. At a signal she and her partner start walking to the other end of the room, where the lady opens the umbrella, takes the man’s arm, and, keeping the umbrella over his head all the way, leads him back to the goal line, where she closes the umbrella and gives it to the lady of the other couple making up the team. This lady and her partner go through the same performance, and the couple which first returns to the goal line and gets its stubborn umbrella closed, wins the race for its team.
