but when they gef into tho gnmo and eee the fun we have guiding our brilliant ahot to the kitty x can ima gine they will let us continue in the sport quite unperturbed and smllo wisely but i never look for the women folk to take tho gnmo real serious i may miss my guess in this but what i look for la that they will play for a season or so and it will then develop into a social aide of tho club that will be attended to by the ladles and right hero is where i bclievo they will play their most important port as members of tho bowling club mow ladies dont for a minute think tliat we dont want you to join in tho gamo with us i know that lsnt the wish of a single member what i think is that once you try the game you will der at all our enthusiasm and why we like it- just the same as if you knew what took us out to lodge in all kinds of weathcaa you would he fled i believe curiosity is starting the ladies at the game but will it las it i hope ao and now ladles it is up to you to fool me
