- A Domino Star
- Place the $28$ dominoes, as shown in the diagram, so as to form a star with alternate rays of $4$ and $3$ dominoes.
- Every ray must contain $21$ pips (in the example only one ray contains this number)
- and the central numbers must be $1$, $2$, $3$, $4$, $5$, $6$, and two blanks, as at present, and these may be in any order.
- In every ray the dominoes must be placed according to the ordinary rule, $6$ against $6$, blank against blank, and so on.
