Ladies' chess clubs, have long flourished on the Continent of Europe, and a racant number of Dic Bohemia mentioned that Fraulein Emilie Danzer, a very strong lady player, was about to establish a Bohemian Ladies' Chess Association, to embrace the cats of Carlsbad and Marienborg. The late Mr. Steizită advised the study of problems on the ground that this excellent branch of our beautiful science will prava extremely useful in developing and increasing strength in practical play." The chess critic of the Times says:It has, moreover, been prov ed again receatly, in correspondence play and in positions requiring special, uanlysis, that problem students and compaGTN vary successful. Tos real truth is that the deprecia. have no claim to speak with anthority. Judging tion of problem study comes only from such as

We do not, however, believe that the dispropor 57tion we have spoken of is so great us it appears. , We cannot too strongly urge the careful study of such fine examples of play as may be found in the games we pablish regularly. But thu present soms a fair opportunity for protesting against loose statements made in ignorance of hard and oxtromaly awkward facts."
