There are signs and symptoms of a
revived interest in the game of bowls,
one of the oldest outdoor pastimes in
England. In its heyday bowls ran
archery very closes-so close. indeed
that in the interests of national de-
Tense it was deemed essential to dis
courage the game. Thus it was, prob
ably, that the pastime came to be
looked upon as having something Of
an illicit character, and for time was
more or less associated with houses of
entertainment which We're not always
OF the best repute. But. in spite of the
ban OF bygone centuries, the bowling
green has survived, more especially in
the north of England and in Scotland.
Nor can there be any more delightful
game than bowls for a summer even
ing, more especially for those who
have attained to an age when such
lively physical exertions as are in
volved by cricket and tennis become a
little unwelcOme.
