Ages. along with most other games.
And when civilization began to move
again toward the aeropiane and the
submarine, people were SO busy doing
the outdoor work of the world that
they never realized that they needed
exercise. And 1t " came back into
popular use until the days of calls
themes, -eugentcs and similar useful
amusementS.
Happily golf had, before the days of
it's disuse, become acclimated in Scot
land. and so was preserved. Anything
Scotland has once adopted as 9. sport
is sure of perpetuity-witness Scotch
whisky, tossing the caber, curling, a
dozen or so of humorous stories as
traditional amusements Of h Bruces
and Burnses.
So golf came through the joyless
centuries alive. England adopted it
because Scotland claimed 1t, and Eng
| land never permits a thing like. that
TO go unannexed. America took it UP
first because it was expensive, difficult
and English.
But golf proved to be an odd game.
| The ~millionaires who were our Iirst
folfers had caddies. OF course and the
caddies played with the cast-off clubs
and lost balls of their employers, as
caddies will: Driven from the aristo-
cratic, highly groomed real course,
the caddies set up links. of their own
Country clubs were just then COM
ing into fashion. This was in the sos
| and early ZOOS.
Golf had this advantage; while only
four persons could make use Of a ten

hole golf course, a foursome to a mole.
with a. few extras hunting for sliced
or pulled shots.
It proved to be a better game for
the man over forty thai tennis, Tor
the exercise is not SO violent, ana
agility and strength are not lndlspeh-
sable. ,
Fol the young men golf was not at
first attractive. 1t took more than a
little courage to carry a bag or clups
| across a city, fifteen years ago, and
| even now the sight of a man on MS
way to the links is pretty sure to PRO
woke sarcastic comment from the oth-
| err kind of unemployed.
But the young men came in at last,
They usually began with a scornful
"try" at hitting a teed ball. One can
always make a splendid drive at the
| first attempt. And having experienced
the delightful sensation which ensues
upon a sweet smack Of the guilty, the
young men usually remarked: say
where do you buy these things, any
way?"
Country clubs could not hold the in
| creasing hosts; public links began tc
! appear. Today, if you would play or

And as a medicine of ambition ant

THE GAME OF GOLF,

Editorial II the New York Globe:
Once upon a time a king in Persia
was ill. But a sage constructed a
staff" the handle of which was hol-
low, and in the cavity placed medical
ments. This he gave to the king,
with 1T a ball.
And the sage up and said: % King.
whose letc., etc.). take now this staff
and with it smite. this ball as far as
thou canst. Then go to where 1t lies
and smite it once more" And the king
did that little thing.
Now the shifting and the going made
the king warm, and his palms became
moist, and the indictments in the
hollow OF the staff--by a species of
endosmosis which Seheherazade didn't
stop to explain--got In their fine work,
and the king recovered his reason and
his reins, as the quaint old writer's
cali them, were quite all right again.
New this was undoubtedly the ORR
gin or. golf. Some writers claim, ot
course, that 1t was the origin of polo
because the king played the game
mounted on a horse. This reasoning
Isl not sound; 1t would be as easy to
argue that the king was the founder
or feminism because he wore jew
leled and brocaded gown or robe.

There are always street sayings in
London which have a becomingly
SHORT life and do not become a part
of the national consciousness In the
same manner as II should worry, and
the like seem to have lone in this
country. HAS your mother sold her
mangle?" "Who shot the dog?" and
"How are you off for soap?" are some
of the picturesque questions which
have been hurled by the street crowds
at dignifed passers-by and at one an
other. At the time of the exhibition
in 1851, the cry, Flows your poor
feet?" was heard everywhere. And it
was an altogether logical question, for
the fatigue suffered by people as they
wandered around the huge exhibition
grounds was very great, and the dis
comfort which many of them felt was
written in their faces.
