have not been dulled by too much
Eeasure.
One thing is certain, I don't fancy
anyone is too jolly happy over the
ghole affair-not even Miss Caro-
1rockett-for the golf tournament was
anducted in such a way that every one
| i4ls very bitterly over it. Men are
nanlike and the women, unless they
belong to the Burlingame clique, call it
SHAMEFUL and horrid.
IT seems that Mrs. Gilman Browns
I u0ubles began when she won tile Bur-
ingame cup, for the SCOTS within the
hearing of Mrs. Brown, declared, She
has no business here. The cup belongs
TO caro- and she is going to have it.
Mrs Brown is an outsider
This is not exactly the pink of
courtesy. but Mrs. Brown did not ex-
gect gentle breeding at Burlingame, and
she calmly, placidIy won the cup. When
she did so, the Bnrlingame set stamped
their feet and groaned scarcely in
audbly Old Mrs. Brownt Isn't that
mean? How dare she2 Anyone should
have had it but her In reality Mrs
Brown is only about thirty-two, but
because she won the cup she was old
Mrs. Brown
When the Del Monte contest came
Mrs. Henry Scott, clad in red golf
coat took things in hand. She had her
war paint on so to speak. She made UP
her mind to win that cup for Caro-. her
niece that is to be. When Mrs. Scott
once makes up her mind you will kind
~ observe that she usually wins, even
If she must uproot trees and overturn
tall buildings.
50 when Mrs. Scott, Burlingame
humbly following in her wake, started
10 escort caro- around the links, 1T was
a f0regone conclusion that Caro- would
win. No one who saw the match has
any doubt concerning the merits of the
NO players. Mrs. Brown plays better
ian nearly any man That was why,
hen she began playing, there was,
an trary to the rules, chatter, laughter
nd remarks to disconcert her. When
caro- played there was dead silence and
APPLAUSE IL she made a good stroke 1t
Sas also the reason why, when Mrs
Brown made an error, some OF them
saped up and down.
Mrs. Brown did not find refuge in
tears, although her eyes were often
moist from the goading she received.
Her opponents were like sayages thirst
hg for Christian gore. When 1t was
syer, Mrs Brown was much relieved.
aud hopes never to play golf again on
links where neither courtesy nor
sport is understood.
Why this demonstration was so OBJ
ectiOnable was that it arose from the
aarrowest most snobbish, cockney
'fquism rather than loyalty to Miss
Crockett 1t was openly stated that
Mrs Browns offense IS that she is an
9utsider.' She is better born and bred
