"The little pleasure of the game."
MATTHEW PRIOR.
Every game lends itself to the propounding of a variety of puzzles. They
can be made, as we have seen, out of the chessboard and the peculiar
moves of the chess pieces. I will now give just a few examples of
puzzles with playing cards and dominoes, and also go out of doors and
consider one or two little posers in the cricket field, at the football
match, and the horse race and motor-car race.
