Should girls play football ? The Australian cricketers, who toured so triumphantly through England in 1921 have decidedly negative view’s on the question. Mr. Sydney. Smith, junr., in his book on the tour, just published, says the team were invited to watch a match at Bradford between girls of 17 to 24 years of age, representing two factories. “After seeing the game for about fifteen minutes,” he writes, “we were quite satisfied that it w’as not entertaining or elevating. It is hoped that this form of amusement among the future mothers of England will not be encouraged. There are plenty of other forms of pleasure for girls of this age, and it was, in my opinion, degrading to see an audience, composed mostly of young men, barracking and giggling during the whole time play was in progress.” THANKS “DRINRO” FOR CURE. “Drinko stopped the craving for alcohol,” writes a man who cured himself of the drink habit. There are hundreds of similar testimonials on file. Many letters tell of homes made happy again through the agency of “Drinko.” Drinko pow’ders are tasteless and odourless, and can be given secretly if desired. “Drinko” never fails to cure alcoholism. Absolutely safe. AU correspondence strictly confidential. Plain scaled envelopes and wrappers used. Write for booklet to Lady Manager, Drinko Proprietary, 212 A.W., Lambton Quay, Wellington.
