The Decline of Wrestling.

rom tHe New lhSNltW.
1t is on record that Henry VIII. him
self, who was something much more
than an amateur athlete, continued to
keep up his practice in wrestling,
among other muscular exercises, even
after his accession to the throne. But
the example of the merry monarch,
though dear to the manly tastes of the
people, could not avert the reaction
which the spread Of the new learning
and the decline of chlyalry were rapid
" bringing about among the upper
classes, to some extent even under the
later Tudors. Still more vixen the Puri-
tan movement acquired strength in the
country, wrestling, among other out-of-
door sports, sank to q lower level OF pop
ularity than it had ever previously
touched in England. Peacham, in his
"Compleat Gentleman" published in
1922, went SO ar ss to say that throwing
the hammer and wrestling were low
class sports. mot so well becoming no.

nelther have l heard or read of any
prince or general commended for wrest-
