THE GAME OF BILLIARDS
AS "A MIND REMEDY

temperance counts a great deal in bill
lizards. OF course, if the men are
evenly matched in skill, temperament
would count, but the stronger player
will win, even if his temperament isn't
as well suited to the game as his op-
ponent's. There never was a player
yet who went into an important match
whose temperament was SO placid that
his heart did not beat rapidly at the
start. If you're hanging to a hori-
zontal bar only ten feet from the
ground you do not put any extra ex-
ertion in your hold, because if you
drop it will not amount to anything,
and there's nothing to be afraid of.
But If that bar were fifty feet from
the ground you'd take the firmest grip
you knew how and hang on for dear
life. That's the difference in the way
a man feels when he doesn't care
whether he wins or loses, and when
in an important contest. Technique.

count more than temperament.

best results. When you see, a play

playing a fast cue ball is not playing
good billiards. The thing is not only
to get good position with the object

together is the better player When
a professional leaves himself hard

these causes are, first, congestion, then de-
