Harry Vardon is now hailed as the
wizard of the golf links. He won the
English championship this year for
the third time on the links of the
Royal st. George Golf Club at Sand
wich. His aggregate score for the four
rounds was 80. Last year he cap
tured the championship at Prestwick
in 3Q7, and won in 1896 at Muirfeld
with 316. Since the championship of
1898 he has taken part in many con-
tests with wonderful success.
It is easy to understand why golf
has become SO popular. Any person
who is fond of being out of doors and
of wandering across the hills and fields
in pursuit of entertainment will find it
in golf. And yet the exercise may be
made as mild as one wishes, for while
the player chases the golf ball from
hole to hole in going over the "links"
as much time may be consumed as de-
sired. The sport is 80 interesting,
however, that the player usually rushes

through the game with all possib lie
speed. The rules and method of the
game are simple. Making the strokes
with skill enough to s'put" the golf
ball into each of the score holes scat
tered over the links within reason
able number of strokes is the difficult
part of the game, and part to be
learned only by practice.
The -'1inks" comprise the course
over which the game is played. They
vary IN form and extent to suit the
taste of the makers of the links and to
conform to the "lay of the land" AS
obstacles in the way of "holing" ball
add zest to the game, the links which
have sand pits, clumps of bushes,
streams, bridges and SO forth in the
way are considered most desirable.
Such objects that interfere with the
play are called hazards. A hazard in
the form of sand pit, fence, wall,
ridge, bowlder or other large obstacle
is called bunker. The eighteen holes
usually constituting the "course" are
marked by either flags or signs bear
ing the hole numbers, beginning with
No. at the starting point and ending
with No. is. Uusually the holes are
placed from 200 to 800 yards apart,
the course being away from the start
ing point to the ninth hole and back
toward the starting point to the eight
eenth hole. The first nine holes COM
prise the ''out" course, and are usual
~ identified by red flags. The last
nine holes comprise the "in" course,
and are usually identified by white
flags.
At the beginning of the course is
"teeing ground" from which the bull
must be "teed" or driven. This space
is bounded by two whitewash lines at
right angles with the course. The
distance between these lines is usually
about six feet, and stakes about TWEEN
ty feet apart indicate the other
boundaries. The player shall not
play in front of the foremost boundary
line nor outside of the stakes.
TO make the first stroke, or tee, the
player builds little hill of sand not
over an inch high, places the ball on
this elevation and makes strong
"drive" in the direction of the first
hole. The object is to get the ball
into the hole with the fewest possible
strokes. The holes are four and a

ginning and the finish of the driving
stroke. You will miss it often until
you learn the "knack" of driving, but
if You dc hit the ball squarely you may
send it skimming a distance of 400
feet. The accompanying illustration
shows representations of the clubs in
common use. These and the golf
balls may be procured at any sporting
goods store, but it is not difficult to
make your own clubs, and good ball
may be whitfield out of hickory.
