Wheelock in IA recent interview,
land that is when 1t Is played
for money. That tends to lower
the higa character OF the game. II game
nf chance is desired upon which to risk a
small or large stake, there are others so
much better adapted to the purpose that it
is a reproach to degrade whist from the
high position 1t would otherwise occupy.
This is the work that women will do for
whist. They will give no countenance to
the game except pla yei simply for the cul-
tivation of the mental faculties.
Men have been the pioneers of the game.

have been quick to take advantage OF their
opportunities, and have followed fast upon
the footstcp 8 Of the leaders. 1t is well for
the future Of whist that it should be so, for
the game is peculiarly home amusement,
and as such depends upon the gentle pro-
lection of women for its full development as
