I suppose that the American people

winter. still those who dwell in other
countries admit that they have the
same ideal by their inefficient effort

FATHER OF GOLF DOGS.
Resese Balls That Fall late

The golf dog is quite the lates,

for the information Of those tardy
ones who have not heard of the breed.
II Is said that it Is a development of a
-ross between a Scotch collie and a
retriever with a little sooner

The father OF his race lives at ST.
Andrews. in Scotland. and looks ike a
Sire-haired fox terrier, somewhat
shop-worn about the body. but with
highly intelligent eountenance and
logged determination to enforce his
charge of n bone i round His name Is
Nlcky. but this should not be held
against him. for it is presumed that
the time-honored custom of naming
the dog without consulting him was
followed in this case

name on the rolls of the royal and

Mieky is not a player. although he

sation that may DC going on at the

Niekys services are only required
when some duffer tops into the pond
and the conversation at such times Is
not always entirely pacific.
When a scratch man comes to the
tee, Mieky retires to the woods or
does some scratching on his own ac-
count But let duffer show his face
near the pond and Mieky is all atten-
ton This power of discrimination
has made Mieky very popular with
the scratch players As the buffers are
under obligations to him. he gets along
pretty well on the whole.
As before mentioned, when a dutfsr

antics with critical eve, and when be
