By use of these words it is not difficult to take a deck of cards
previously shuffled by some one, and to learn the position of each card
in the pack. The first card will be represented by its corresponding
word and visually associated with the first word of the Code List Tie.
For example, the first card you find in the pack is the 6 of Hearts,
which is represented by the word HASH, and you simply make a picture of
a TIE & HASH.
The second card might be the 4 of Clubs, which is represented by the
word Cur, and made into a picture with the second word of the Code
List, Snow.
The third card might be the 3 of Spades, in which case you would make a
picture of Home and SEAM.
In a similar manner proceed to make a visual picture for each card
in the pack, as you come to it, with the following word of your Code
List. Then when you have gone as far as you wish, pick up the cards,
being careful to keep them in the order in which you have learned them,
holding them with their backs to you and their faces to those who are
watching. In order to name the first card simply recall your picture
with Tie which will bring to mind the word HASH, which stands for the 6
of Hearts. The second card will be Snow and CUR for the 4 of Clubs. The
third card will be Home and SEAM or the 3 of Spades.
With practice you will be able to take the fifty-two cards of the
deck. At first it is advisable to take only twenty or twenty-five, so
that you can recall your pictures soon after they have been made. The
more cards you take, the stronger picture you must make to hold it
accurately in mind without review.
=When the Pictures Is Clear and Vivid the Memory Is Dependable.=
