Figure 1.-- This game was called The Onion. Presumably the Spanish name was La Cebolla. This was a came the girls played. We have absolutely no idea what the rules were or the point of the game. The girls are sitting together together in a single row on the ground and steps forming a kind of chain. The girls with their arms are holding on to the girl in front of them. Then on girl trys to peal off the girl in front. Perhaps that is why it is called an onion with its many layers. The same little girl in white who featured prominently in the Niña Nacio en Francia game is with the girls here. We are not sure who does the pulling off, perhaps the girl who hs just been pealed off. Seems like quite a strenous operation for girls who arr often involved in less forceful games.
