Travers Of Upper Montclair, \. T.. the
holder of the amateur championship.
When the first national handicap list
was prepared a year ago there were
six men on the scratch mark. Travers
was one of them, but his remarkable
work last season. especially his play
in the national championship at Whea-
ton. showed that he is in a class by
himself. His five companions of a
year ago are now all ranked behind
him. one of them at one stroke and the
sther four at two.
Chick Evans, runner up TO Travers
IN the national championship, is the
only man allotted one stroke by the
United States Golf association. His
play during the year entities him to
the distinction. He played better golf
than Travers on many occasions, and
on the seasons performances up to the
day of the final round at Wheaton he
had the better record, but the final
match conclusively established the su,
periority of the eastern player

ice that everybody could safely swallow

Two chief advantages of artificial ice are
that it can be depended upon and that
its cost Is fixed and calculable Natural
ice may be high or low. There is no know

next year unless a combination is able to
control all sources of supply.
The easy way out IS for communities
to establish ice works learn the cost and
sell at just a sufficient price to meet wear
and tear and carry on the business. and
then forbid the selling of other and un
certain ice. The municipal factories could
sell at their own doors and whoever
