" HERE are large number Of
different shots that can be
played IN goIf They really
have to be played because the ele-
ments or other works OF nature make
this necessity in seeking for the
best results.
First OF all there is the drive. A
slice might be advantageous or even
a pull. To obtain the slice the ball
is played off the left foot This
shortens the swing and consequently
the hands have a tendency to cut
across the ball, forcing il out as il
were. When the ball strikes the
ground on this shot the force Is spent
and the ball will run bat very lly.ie.
Best Golfers Play Slice Shot.
Then there is the slice as played by
Eardon. Ray and the other grea:
golfers This is played of the LEFT
foot also. hut not so much so as the
slice caused by cutting across the
bali The bah is struck from the IN
side and though not a wide slice it
keeps bearing to the right at all
times This shot is a good one 20
play. since it is safe and effective

WELCOME TO TEACHERS OF
DEAR OLD WAYNE.

Teachers of Wayne county, the
people of Honesdale bid you well
come. During your stay among us
the coming week the town and its
residents sincerely hope that you
will enjoy the many privileges that
will be afforded and that when the
forty-sixth annual session will have
closed that you will be stronger in
tellectually and sociologically for
having come in our midst.
Before leaving this historical
town, where the first locomotive, the
Stourbridge Lion, turned a wheel on
the American continent, you are in
vited to visit The Citizen office
where is installed a Mergenthaler
linotype, a type setting machine
which is one of the modern inven-
tions of the age. AS a souvenir to
every teacher visiting our plant dur
ing institute week The Citizen will
give metal slug with his or her
name cast thereon.
The citizen. (Honesdale, Pa.) 1908-1914, 1913-11-11
FORTY-THREE YEARS IN
SERVICE OF THE ER

Conductor Charles Lord of the
Honesdale Erie passenger train, cele-
brated his forty-third year in the
service of the Erie company on Sun
day. Mr.. Lord started in as a
brakeman on the Jefferson division
of this road, his first run being from
Susquehanna to Carbondale. The
conductor of that train is now in
the west where he holds the posi-
tion of president of bank of a rap
idly growing city. Mr.. Lord, by at
tending strictly to business, was
soon promoted and became conduc-
tor of coal and freight trains which
operated on the Delaware and Wyo-
ming divisions. Mr.. Lord for
nearly fifteen years has been con-
ductor of passenger trains for the
Erie. For the past six years he has
been in charge of the Honesdale
Erie train which operates daily be-
tween Port Jervis and this place and
LackaWaxen.
During the forty-three years that
Conductor Lord has been in the
Erie's service he has never missed
the pay car any month. This is an
unusual record and one that few en-
ployees of any railroad have ex-
perienced.
The citizen. (Honesdale, Pa.) 1908-1914, 1913-11-11

The establishment of penny post
age between the United States and
Great Britain has been amply justi-
fed by results obtained. The British
postoffice reports show a remark
able increase in the number of let
ters sent between the two countries.
There has been no decline from the
high figures of 1909-10 when from
an annual increase of . per cent. in
letters sent to America the figures
jumped to 92 per cent. In 1928
the increase was rs per cent. The
rate of increase on letters sent from
the United States was 29 per cent.
in 1909-10, and in 1928 it was
6.8 per cent. The experiment is a
successful one. 1t will doubtless be
followed in due time by half-penny
or one-cent letter postage.
The citizen. (Honesdale, Pa.) 1908-1914, 1913-11-11
DESTROY TAMMANY.

Tammany must be destroyed" :"
is the daily theme of the New York
World. 1t has an historical pre-
cedent for this declaration in Roman
history, when, as every school boy
probably doesn't know, Cato used
to close his speeches in the Senate
with the remark, "Et delanda est
Carthage" Carthage must be de-
stroyed). Well, Carthage finally was
destroyed by the Romans, though
several wars had to be fought before
it was accomplished. So, too, Tam
many will perish some day, but it
is doubtful whether it will be in this
day and generation. Tammany is
one of the strongest political organi-
cations in the world and several
years ago they were wiped out SINH
lar to their more recent defeat, but
during those intervening years the
old tiger was not asleep in it's lair,
but was steadily and silently build
ing up what had been pulled down of
its political strongholds. Now, as
before, it will only have the work to
do over again and that will come
ultimately unless the Democrats op-
posed to Tammany Hall are stronger
in the city of New York than they
give evidence to-day.

DEER SEASON OPENED MONDAY.

The deer season, which opened
on Monday, November 10, promises
to be unsuccessful one in this region.
Already hunters from eastern cities
are commencing to arrive and es-
tablish their camps in the Poconos
and Pike county. A party of seven
Scranton hunters, members of the
Pennsylvania Game and Fishing as
sociation, went to Stroudsburg Sat-
urday morning and left for Dutch
Flats, Pike county. The headquart-
ers of the association is at Dunmore.
Black Diamond camp, which for
five years has been one of the most
favous deer haunts in the Poconos,
will be established this year.
The New Jersey season is already
is progress, and across the river
from Shawnee, Belvidere hunters got
fine two-year-old buck on We'd
nesday. At North Water Gap re-
Gently, farmer ran across a herd of
five deer, grazing but a few rods
away from him. Two of them were
bucks. The state released a herd of
eight on the Poconos last Spring.
They were evenly mated.
