Under daylight-saving in Scotland, it is possible to play the game of bow’ls without artificial lighting as late as 11.30 p.m., according to Mr. T. N. Horsley, who returned to Christchurch last Saturday from a visit to the Old Country. Mr. Horsley mentioned that one night while in Glasgow he was writing a letter in broad daylight, and looking at the clock he found it was twentyfive minute's past ten o’clock. The twilight in England and Scotland was much longer than in New Zealand, and he believed that New Zealand was much more suited for daylight-saving. “I never hear a word uttered against day-light-saving in England and Scotland,” remarked Mr. Horsley. “The people seemed to regard the alteration of the clock as the natural thing to do, and everyone appeared to be thoroughly 'satisfied that <htyliglvt-saving was a i good thing.”
