Sentences with MIBS (5)
Boys usually have one shooter made from agate which they call a “real.” To change the position of the shooter is called “roundings,” and to object to this or to any other play is expressed by the word “fen.” The common game of marbles is to make a rectangular ring and to shoot from a line and endeavour to knock the marbles or “mibs” of one’s opponents out of the square.
NAMES OF MARBLES The common marbles used by boys everywhere are called mibs, fivers, commies, migs, megs, alleys, and dubs.
Now here's another boy to-day, counting his marble heaps And proudly boasting to his dad he's playing mibs for keeps! His mother doesn't like this change.
And oh, I hope he will not be the little boy who weeps Too much when he has failed to win while playing mibs for keeps.
Yet from this game with marbles, played with youngsters on the street, I hope will come a larger boy, too big to lie or cheat, And by these mibs which from his clutch another madly sweeps, I hope he'll learn the game of life which must be played for keeps.
