Rich in
Noble
Memories

A building of serenity and sym
metry, of fine amplitude, gracious,
alluring building, rich in noble mem
cries, vet touched also with living
sweetness; such is the beautiful old
State house in Philadelphia, often re-
ferred to as Independence hall. And
ii stood here, and was even then a
building of age and dignity, when Sir
Walter Scott said to Washington Irv-
Ing, with a tolerant condescension
which he meant to be flattering. THE
vast aboriginal trees that have shell
tered the Indians before the intrusion
of the white man, are the monuments
and antiquities of your country J"
Scott was quite ignorant of the fact
that America had architecture to him,
our country had merely trees, al
though this building. and some other
American buildings, were richer in
beauty and in noble association than
quite a number of those in his own
land of which he wrote with such en-
thusiasm.
Scott was deeply impressed by the

TO see an American prairie. And had
Scott come over here, and had he seen
not only a forest but this State house.
his Imagination would have been fired,
and he might have written a great
novel about America, rich in details
of the Revolutionary leaders. with the

account of age. Age adds to beauti-

RADIO CARRIES BOWL|NG TALK
 OVER COUNTRY
Treasurer of American Bowl ing Congress Says Game
 Builds Body and Mind

The following speech on Benefits and Pleasures of Bowling" was made recently by Frank l.. Pasdeloup, treas urer of the American Bowling Con. gress and broadcast by radio:
 Bowling is practically as old as the hills. It is probably the oldest of the present day pastimes. In the early days of this sport it was in dulged in by gentlemen as pastime and as means of obtaining exercise {; in fact, no nobleman's mansion or es- tate was complete in those days with out a bowling alley.
 Tt is the proud boast of the Amer ican Bowling Congress that bowling is now the best organized and con- trolled game or sport known. Never a scandal, never anything disgraceful is heard" of this game.
 There are more people actively in- terested in bowling than any other game. Bowling is primarily a game of skill and science and therefore de- velops accuracy and a strong, keen, alert mind. No one has ever yet or ever will become a perfect bowler. Like in any of the sciences, there is always more to learn and always room for improvement.
 ''It is purely an amateur sport. There are no professionals. No man has ever made living by bowling and it is game in which every man pays his own way. Bowling is not a spectators game and bowlers are prowd of it. The great defect in our American athletic system lies in the fact that almost 100 per cent are on lockers, while the percentage of par ticipants is small.
 Hundreds of championship tourn- a ments are held annually for every city and state in the nation and for world championships as well, and all of these leagues and tournaments grow larger every year.
 Chicago alone contributed 400 bow ling teams and entered them in the VariouS% championship tournaments held during the last year. Chicago alone last year had about 400 different leagues-each containing from six to sixteen teams, each playing schedule of games averaging about twenty-eight weeks These bowlers are classed as experts and are only small percen tage of the total persons who bowl.
 ''The ladies are taking almost as much interest in this wonderful game as the men are. In Chicago alone the Telephone Company has about $50 lady bowlers who have regular league nights. The Gas Company has a lady bowler's league. The Federal Reserve Bank also has ladies' league. might mention many more things about the ladies activities in the bowl ing game, but lack of time have their bowling organizations and decide their city, national and other champion ships the same as do the men.
 Bowling is not an expensive game, the cost of bowling for league night runs from 60 to 75 cents, this amount includes a donation towards the prize
