had they suggested 90 the owner that
he sell MS Derby faVorite and giveaup

A few weeks later Mr.. Ismay's colt

No complaint was made by any

Derby away from Mr.. Ismay while

disqualified for fouIing and humping.

There was an aftermath. Mr.. Ismay

he would sure sue for an appeal The

One thing that can be said in favor
of Moran, is that he gets plenty or
real action every time he starts.
Welsh being somewhat more clever,

side critics Abe Attell, when at his
best, also met Moran as leather

unable to do better than a draw with
him.
Never HaggIes
Moran always has been a man who
does not make bones about picking
his opponent He never haggles over
weight, and is always willing to give
away five pounds, and sometimes
more, to an adversary. GO get rep
utation' is a phrase not in his book,
and he is willing to tackle any
body who is willing to tackle him.
His best bouts fought in this country
were probably those with Harlem
Tommy Murphy, Matty Baldwin, and
Pal Moore. all of whom he thrashed
soundly. Yet just now Murphy is the
next man in line to box Willie Richie
and Moran has not had a hearing even
in talk about championship fights.

New York Wild Over Golf.
New York has gone wild over golf.
It is no uncommon sight these winter
days to see at least 100 players waiting
to make the rounds on the Van Court

best public courses in the country.
The city officials have been petit
toned to construct another course in
the park, and to construct courses in
the several other parks on Manhattan

the number will be almost doubled be-
fore the middle of next summer. In the
past the golfers have had only two
public links at their disposal; one in
Van CORTLAND and the other in Forest
Park, Brooklyn. Many golfers, in their
endeavors to avoid waiting until others
finished their games, have gone to the
links in the summer soon after dav-
break. Many of the games last sum
mer were finished almost in darkness.

Nj bert Fowler, famous as a golf
4 authority and constructor of golf
courses, has his way, there won't be
50 many golfers in the future bcasting
about their low scores.
Asserting that Improvement in the
courses, better clubs and the substitu-
ton of steel and acid center balls for
the old fashioned gutta percha center
balls have made the golf game too
easy. Fowler would have cross hazards
and other obstacles placed in the
course to make the golfers game more
difficult.
Fowler declares that even the poorest
golfer of the present day can get a
greater distance in his drives when
using the new style ball than could
the most expert golfers of the old
days who had nothing bit a gutta
percha ball to swat
ITO make the game as difficult as
it was 20 years ago" declares Fowler,
the courses ought to be heightened
about 1000 yards. But this is imDrac-
teal Golfers even now complain about
the length of the course many of them
declaring that it is too long for them
to get In two rounds in the afternoons
Of the short days Of spring and fall.
He Would Make Hazards Hard.
MY idea is to add hazards to the
course. I would have installed num-
Der of cross hazards, of a difficult
nature. This would increase the diff
culties of the player to the extent of
taking away the advantages he has
With the new cOred ball, new clubs and
course improvements, and would, / be-
lieve, greatly add to the interest of
golf"
Harry Vardon, the great English
golfer, agrees with Fowler that the
game today is a bit too easy, but he
dos not feel that hazards would make
the game much more difficult. Vardon
however, does not offer any suggestion
for lettering conditions.
J. H. Taylor the British champion
WIFI agreeing with Fowler that cross
haze rds ought TO be installed in courses.

SCHOOLS LIKE DENMARk'S
FOR THE UNITED STATES

That the Danish Folk high schools
for grown ups" which have made
possible the recent wonderful devel-
opment in rural Denmark, can be
successfully transplanted in modified
form in the United States. is the
conclusion reached by II. w Foght
of the United States Bureau of Ed
ucaton in a bulletin Just issued
Mr. Foght has studied both the Dan
ish schools and American rural con-
ditions at first hand, and he believes
that what the Folk high schools
have done for rural civilization in
Denmark they can do for the United
States.
The place to introduce the new
type of school is the region known
as the South Atlantic Highland, ac-
cording to Mr.. Foght, embracing all
of West Virginia, AZ counties in
Western Virginia, % in western
north Carolina, and in western
South Carolina % in northern Geor-
gia, II in northeastern Alabama;
40 in eastern Tennessee, and 36 in
eastern Kentucky. 1t is not that
these sections are necessarily be-
hind other parts of the country in
education, though much more illit-
eracy prevails, but that the peculiar
local conditions demand some insti-
tuition like the Danish schools.
There are already few Folk high
schools in the United States, es
tablished by Danish immigrants.
While grave difficulties have been
experienced by these schools, Mr..

Foght is of the opinion that they are
due to certain special causes that
could be easily overcome in real
attempt 10 adapt the Folk high
school to American life in the noun
tains.
THE Folk high school spirit has
emancipated the agricultural popu-
lation of Denmark" declares Mr.
Fight. ut has at least made coun-
try people the peers of their city
brethren. They have become lead .
ers in affairs, in production, in dis
tributlon, in politics, chiefly because
they have learned to think for them
selves and to act independently of
the industrial classes.
in the United States there is
great danger of going to the extreme
in the Immediately practical and
technical. The work OF special
schools is in danger of focusing too
much on making two blades of grass
grow where one grew before, on
teaching girls to cook and keep
house according to sanitary rcgulI-
tions and the like.
These things are all necessary
and must be taught in the schools,
but they are utterly insufficient to
make us really great agricultural
nation. 1t was not the local agri-
cultural schools and household econ
omic schools that primarily made
Denmark great scientific agricul-
tural nation, but the Folk high
schools. We need such schools in
the United States; schools that would
teach a greater love for the soil;
that would help us to measure the
good in life by spiritual standards
and not by man made rules; schools
that would help us to rise above the
limitations of locality and state, and
teach an understanding OF the ma
tional and even universal in the
United States"
