AT COLUMBIA GOLF CLUB

course.
The slight southerly wind that kept
slowly blowing over the links was just
strong enough to let the golfers know that
the day was far from being hot. This fact
was comforting and did much to add to the
enjoyment Of the play.
Mr.. Pliny Moran Of the committee OF
club members having the matches In
charge, took cara OF those who wanted to
argue" at the scoreboard. He knows
the golf record Of every member Of the
club and when the discussion comes that
this or that member Is getting the worst

hand him the goods" in the way Of the
correct figures.
During the afternoon many ladies came
out and as the closing matches of the day
were being played they sat upon the lawn
and with their Light colored gowns formed
a pleasing picture.

this time of the season and plainly showed
the work which PROBES. &)nal Waters and
his assistants have been bestowing upon
