SUNDAY GAMES ASSOCIATION.
Sunday Games Association has been formed to promote—in the best interests of the community, it is claimed—the Sunday playing of all healthy out-door games as a counteraction to loafiing," gambling, and other less desirable ways of spending Sunday leisure on the part of many young men. Very many of us will feel the proposal rather a shock. Yet most of us see no harm in quiet forms of recreation on Sunday—a walk, reading, music, and so on, Are we tp impose limits that suit us on more energetic natures? The question needs wise and large-hearted consideration, and it might be a good thing if a representative conference —of young and old, especially young —drawn from all the churches could meet and discuss the matter all round.
