Billiard saloons continue to enjoy widespread prosperity. Enthusiasts have to wait their turn ere they get a table in the evenings, and there is no sign of the popularity of the game waning. There have been several increases in the charges for billiards since the war, and now comes the announcement that very soon another rise will be necessary. Costs have gone up considerably, and they have got to be met somehow.
Even with the higher charges it is thought improbable that the attendance at the various saloons will be seriously affected.—Glasgow News.
