The Ball In Lawn Tennis.

1t is a curious fact that every book
written on lawn tennis cautions the
player to keep his eyes on the ball at
the moment of striking it, yet there are
very few expert players who do SO.

looks at the pins, and billiard player
generally looks at the object ball, not

second nature with me and with most
other players to look up in the direction
that the ball is to go before it actually
leaves the racket. 1t is principally be-
cause the reverse of this is necessary
in golf that lawn tennis players have
so much trouble in mastering the old

Monka as Chnuaeur..

The Grand ST. Bernard monks made
their first trip recently from Martigny
to the st. Bernard hospice with their
new motor transport car, which has
been specially constructed to carry
heavy weights on steep gradients. The
car, which is of forty horsepower, is
fitted with special tire coverings to
grip the snow and ice, says the Brook
Ign Eagle. Six monks from the hospice
recently went to Milan to learn the art
of driving n motor car, and are now
expert chauffeurs
Two monks, wearing the usual habit
and cowl, drove the heavy car loaded
with provisions and fire wood up the
mountain road to the hospice without
the slightest difficulty. Next season
the monks will start motor car serv-
ice for tourists from Martingy to the
hospice.
