PUTTING TIP FROM ST. ANDREWS.

: A man on his first visit to st An
drews (Scotland) golf links, was much
impressed by the high standard of eff
ficiency which he saw displayed on
! the greens by those with whom he
played. He studied the actions of
these heroes to see if he could discover
any common feature in their methods
At last he saw light. He observed
that they all held the left hand more
under the club when putting than they
did when driving.
From this he dedueed a rule of con-

the rest of his stay, and it may be for
some time afterward, his own putting
