This game is really for five players only, but, by a little
arrangement, six or seven children can take part in the fun.
Four players take their places in the different corners of the room,
while the fifth stands in the middle. If a greater number of children
wish to play, other parts of the room must be named "corners," so that
there is a corner for every one.
The fun consists in the players trying to change places without being
caught; but they are bound to call "Puss, puss," first, and to
beckon to the one they wish to change with. Directly they leave their
corners, the player in the center tries to get into one of them.
When the center player succeeds in getting into a corner, the one who
has been displaced has to take his place in the middle of the room.
