the golfers OF last season are looking
around for novelties for the coming

Herald
One theory advanced Is that Of learn

DO full aud the club head followed
through with the ball The way to get
the true style In driving. according 10
the now idea. Is TO practice the drive
with a golf ball held firmly under the
right armplt Il will be found that
when the swing Is properly made tho
ball will not bo dislodeed from It's
place. and, on the other hand, that tho
exertlon OF holding the ball In It's post

that II has improved their drive.
Another suggestion Is that the neclSs
or mouths OF the caddie bags should be
not less than six and a half inches
across. This recommendation IL based
on the experience that the usual caddlo
bag mouth OF four and half inches In
sures badly frayod leather grips OF the
clubs. owing to tho haste OF the caddia
boys TO push them In and out OF ths
bag In serving the players during tho
round. Tho bags. although somewhat
larger TO tho eye, are no heavier than
those with narrow mouths, and the
caddle's work II thus made easier aud

! A third suggestion is an Improve
/ ment In tho cups used to OIL the holes
The usual disk cup Is OF heavy gal-
/ ynnized tin. W.!h two cross pieces per-
forated to support the disk stan, which.
especially when tho ground is hard
I with frost. requires considerable labor

The new device, which has been used
for season IN the west. Is an iron cup
having thick base In which tho star
rests. The hole need not be as deep as
with tho tin cups. and as there are no
cross bars the balls never become stuck
beneath them.
