Submitter comment:
YOU JUMP ROPE TO THE RHYME, THINKING OF WORDS BEGINNING WITH AN A TO
END EACH LINE OF THE RHYME. NEXT YOU REPEAT THE RHYME WITH TWO
NAMES, SOMETHING TO BE SOLD, AND A PLACE BEGINNING WITH B. YOU TRY
TO SEE HOW FAR YOU CAN GO THROUGH THE ALPHABET WITHOUT MISSING A JUMP
OR HESITATING TO COMPLETE A LINE. RUTH LEARNED THIS IN CHICAGO,
ILLINOIS OR IN ENDWELL, NEW YORK.
