Golf is rapidly developing peculiar

may be called ''the golf eye" It is a
peculiar and perhaps unclassified form
of disease, if indeed it can be called a

of golf players career. In brief, ii
is the faculty of seeing an object with
out having the eye communicate the
fact to the human brain.
Take any golf course in the country
and let person walk around it, keep
ing within the playing grounds of the
links Without making any percept-
ible effort at searching, the chances
are that the pedestrians will be able to
pick up several golf balls. Those same
balls have been lost during play and
have occasioned the loss of no end of
time and temper to the players and
caddies who have searched Industrious
ly for them. The chances are that
each golfer who loses ball saw the
exact spot where it dropped and that
his forerunning caddy was within q
distance of so feet of it when it struck
the ground. Yet, Notwithstanding
these facts, a perfect stranger to the 10.
