■ ♦— - - To the Editor of the rhni lurd. Sir, —Can you tell me 11 there is any other school in the Waharap i beside- Greytown, where the girls, «sa rule, piaetiec tin masculine and kneelmg game ol ninibs. Nearly at every corner ot the town y-u w 1 find school-girls competing with much bdere-t in the games played with those s'oney spiioiiods. They tell me that even tho junior female teachers are smitten with the idea. If such manly games are to be adopted by the ,girls, the sooner wo dispense with tho dressmakers, and call in the services of the tailor, to outfit mir feminine juveinli s, the belli r both for the pmpo.-es of the game, and the saving to our pockets. lam, At. Lady Isabel. Greytown, June 10, Bssd,
