Seattle is indeed fortunate in having two resorts located in the same building, a single floor apart, having the finest equipment and playing advantages on the Pacific Coast. The click of the ivories and the rumble of the bowling ball down the alleys are sweet music to thousands of devotees of these two great indoor pastimes. Billiards and Bowling are now in full swing in Seattle; the rooms and the alleys are daily crowded with skilled performers and fans. The business man receives great benefit from these games; they form a mild exercise without violent action—with an atmos- phere of refinement and surroundings that are most pleasant, these rooms have much to offer by way of healthful diversion to cvery man. Every player gets real benefits from these sports. Three-cushion billiards is very popular in this city and a number of very fine players are being developed. This game furnishes many thrills and by many is considered the greatest form of billiards. Ten-pins is the most popular game on the alleys. Bowlers who usually score the coveted 200 are to be seen in action, as well as others not quite so expert, but regardless of this apparently enjoying the game quite as well. Both in Billiards and Bowling, players can be matched of equal strength, thus assuring keen interest in the competition. Conveniently located, less than a block from the Postoffice—the heart of the business section—and in a Class A, Sound-Proof Building.
