BIRTH OF COLONEL BoGY.

Origin of the Term That Has Become
Part of Golf.
'Who is Colonel Bogy?" That is the
first question usually asked by the re-
cruit when he steps on the golf links
Professionals and veterans never tire
of explaining that he is the imaginary
opponent, with the fixed score for each
hole but few can tell how the name
originated. ...s..
1t generally is accepted that an Eng
lishman was first to set forth the idea.
In December, 1890, the scratch score of
the score that a good scratch player
would take to each hole of the grounds,
making no mistakes, but also fuking
nothing nor being fortunate with any
special flashes of brilliant &hly. .,... e e..
At the time they called this the
ground score" and later several tour
naments were given under the system.
The name, however, followed soon, and
it's origin was a curious one. DR..
Thomas Browne, r. N, went out to
A. Wellman. and they agreed instead
of playing directly against each other
to play against the ground score and
decide their match accordingly as each
Jared in this way. 1t so happened that
about the same time the bogy song
was being sung by the late e. j. Lon
men at the London Gaiety theater, and
everybody else was singing it. The
words of the refrain were: u: -;
Hush! Hush! Hush! T.r
Here comes the bogy man!
So hide your head beneath the clothes.
He'll catch you if he can.
There was the idea in golf. He'll
catch you if he can!' And it flashed
across the mind of Major Wellman
when he was playing this game and
was getting "caught'' by the ground
score. why" said he to his friend
Browne, this player of yours is a reg
ular bogy' man" A considerable piece
Of golf history was made In that
chance remark. for "bogy" was from
that moment established in golf. Some
time later colonel was added.-Ex-

THE COUNTRY BANKER.
His Standing In and His Grip Upon
His Own Community.

His Standing In and His Grip Upon
His Own Community.
The first public convenience new
commodity wants is a bank. Outlines
1t comes before the church or a news
paper; but, as rule, it follows both.
It is hard to beat the editor and the
preacher.
If the influence exercised by the
bankers of our great cities constitutes
a menace to the public welfare, what
shall we say of the grip that the little
bank holds on it's community? The so
called country banker" to succeed
must be eminent for all the qualities
that make up truly good man. Usu-
ally he is a church member and often
q Sunday school teacher. He is con-
suited by politicians regarding the local
government, and the candidate who
has his appreciation is envied, for he is
usually the winner. To the country
banker are confided the troubles, do
nestle as well as financial, of all who
have access to him. And everybody
seeks to have access.
The banker is first to subscribe to
every good cause. He is the COM
munity's adviser as to investments and
the arbitrator of it's business contro-
versies. His word is as good as his
bond, and to his credit 1t must be
added that, with rare exceptions, it
deserves to be. He asks few favors,
and these are always granted. He is
the center of the social life of his vi
cinity. His voice is that Of authority.
He is loved, respected, admired and
feared. The banker is a man Of in
tegrity. The slightest cloud on him or
on his bank will settle them both. In
this matter he stands with the preach
er. So, from selfish considerations, if
from no other. the banker must be de-
serving of the trust repOsed in him
by his fellow citizens.
Who wouldn't be the country bank
er?-Leslie's.

BITS FROM BUILDERS

While contractors say that their work
is slowly recovering from its inertia,
some parts of Washington show a de-
cided gain in the building and improve
ment line.
around Twenty-second and Twenty third
Streets is the center OF great building
and remodeling work.
One construction OF notable mention is
i the residence of William H. McAllister.
at Wyoming Avenue and Twenty-third
Street-Wood, Dom & Deming. archI-
tects. and the Davis Construction Com
pany, contractors
This structure is unusual in the fact
that only the finest materials are going
into it The outside will be OF granite
base, with Indiana limestone trimmings
and window trims. The body Of the
house will be of Mills Rustique brick.
II will have a roof OF Matthews green
slate. The cellar will be under the whole
house and of special waterproof con-
struction.
The house will be finished throughout
in birch and equipped with hot water
heat with automatic regulation, electric
lights and vacuum cleaners.
1t is Of the simple residence type and
is set in a lot so feet wide. and is free
on all sides. Besides the house there is
garage to match, equipped for electric
and gasoline automobiles.
The same firm reports the finishing Of
a garage for Edwin Marden. on Langdon
Avenue at Sixteenth. extended. The
building is of stucco and is designed to
accommodate three machines. 1t is built
with stables underneath for saddle horses
and one room for the stable man.

tons consist OF a larger dining DOM,

furnish everything necessary for house
keeping. II tenants So desire. This In
cludes, not only furniture. but such items
as cut glass, silverware. and decorative
details of the home. There is also a
general kitchen and laundry in the base
ment. with which communication Is
maintained through speaking tubes, tele-
phones, and a dumb waiter.
The general kitchen is presided over
by chef employed by the owning COM
pany, and is equipped with facilities for
supplying every want OF all the tenants.
II the housewife does not feel like under
taking the task Of preparing a meal, she
simply telephones her order to the chef,
who prepares the dinner and sends II
up by the dumb waiter. When the meal
is ended the dishes can be placed in the
dumb waiter and sent back to the kitchen
to be washed
The principle objection in small apart
ments of this kind has been poor venti-
lation, but that problem seems to have
been solved by the inventors OF the one
room suite. Not only is each apartment
equipped with devices for circulating the
air. but the receiving closets, into which
the furniture is turned when not in use,
are ventilated thoroughly. The folding
beds also are constructed in such a man.
ner that they are ventilated through and
through each day, although they are
locked in the receiving cabinets and are
out of sight as well as out Of mind.
Sweeping has no place in the lexicon
of the ''three-in-one" apartment. All
the work usually classified as sweeping
is done by vacuum cleansers. operated
by servants employed by the company.
Thus II will be seen that the one-room
suite is about as nearly ideal as such
an abode can be made.

PLANS FOR A NOVEL
APARTMENT HOUSE
"Workless" Housekeeping Will Be
Feature of New Structure
in Capital.

Worthless housekeeping. in a COM
plete apartment consisting of one room,
is the latest contribution of the scien-
lists who are laboring to make the home
more comfortable, more convenient, and
less expensive.
Out of the modern demand for concen-
tration and efficiency in condensation has
come this new wonder, which, for want
of better name, is known at present
as the ''three-in-one apartment" or the
''one-room suite"
On what Is apparently the best Of foun-
dations the inventors assert that new
apartment will reduce homework to the
absolute minimum. lower rents, and save
space, all without crowding, without any
sacrifice of privacy. and under the best
OF sanitary conditions.
In the new apartment there will he
no more cooking, no more dishwashing.
no more sweeping. busting. or wrestling
with the servant girl problem. There will
be nothing. in short, except the occupa-
ton Of making home life as attractive
as II can possibly be made, unless, of
course, the housewife voluntarily chooses
to assume labors which might as well
be disposed of by mechanical means.
The word apartment is a misnomer.

is employed here. however, for the req

new .'three-in-one" will be used exclu-
sively.
Patent Furniture the Secret.
Reversible and convertible furniture,
which swings on strong pivots set per-
pendicularly into the walls is the secret
of the ''three-in-one." Simply by re-
leasing a lock and swinging a section OF
the wall. one way convert the apartment
from a beautiful dining room to a cozy
living room or library. Another turn of
another section will add the charm of a
music room, with piano and music cases,
to the library.
Yet another swinging of the wall sec
