The boivl-U'st ing question came in for u oreat deal of dismission the nu'i'ting of tho Dominion Council in Dunedin lust nook, .-uni it. bus now boon decided that the whole mutter of testing ho left in tlie hands of tlie authorities of each (’outre to deal with as they think lit. Air Underwood, who was the prime mover in this matter, stated candidly that lie was perfectly satisfied that the green test possessed certain shortcomings which were overcome by the table test. He took it that the object of all players was to get thoilr howls so adjusted that they would take the same track an<l finish n |* on the same spot.

On the table the conditions never varied, and a further strong argument was to ho found in the fact tliit the howl maiiiilaetureis, v. ho knew more about bowls than anyone else, test ml their howls on a prepared surface indoors.
