Critic Thinks Golf Cruel Game
Henry Leach Tells About Sport

followed a very encouraging period Of
golf and the effect upon the whole
some hearted golfer was so depress-
ing that he straightway called the
sovereign game "a vile deceiver."
an the night Of that sad day MT,
~ Leach turned to Robert Louis
Stevenson for comfort and from him
he learned that men do not want
happiness; what they live
for is rivalry, effort, success" Then
Mr. Leach tried to convince himself
that Stevenson played golf, because a
gardener had dug up in front of his
cottage golf ball deeply marked
with the letters r. L. S.
do not think that Stevenson
PLAYED golf and / am very sure that
If he had written fewer books and
played more golf he would have lived
longer | am equally sure that on
some pleasant day, when Mr. Leach
found himself going good" he would
consider golf the friendliest, happiest
game in the world.
To my mind the charm Of golf.
aside from fresh air friendly in
tercourse, is in the enjoyment of skill.
of control-in other words, the joy of
the expert. 1t is not so much win
Ill1lR, IHpuEH Iildl Is upl ~ Nv ht-
spised, but the skillful rendering OF
strokes.
Only competition makes skiilful
players. for without il a man can not
measure his advancement. | do not
believe that ones enjoyment of a. golf
match consists in the humiliation of
ones opponent-no, rather in the ex-
altation OF ones own skill and a re-
gret that its manifestation is OBJ
tanned at the cost of another man.
Many game has been. won by
trickery rather than skin, but what
golfer cares for a technical victory
And in that fact one learns the real
joy of the game.
1t is not the defeat of an opponent +:
it is the pleasant consciousness OF
ones own skill.

Bv "Chick'' Evans

a MONTH or so ago there APP
A peared in British journal a
very interesting and charac-
teristic article by Henry Leach on
the philosophy of Golf" A good
subtitle would have been THE Cruel
Game or Golf for In his article MIR.
Leach attempted TO show that golf
was cruel game, much more cruel
than boxing or even prize fighting,
for he believes that the mental and
psychological pain OF the golfer Is
much more severe than the purely
physical suffering of boxer or
fighter
Mr.. Leach thinks that golf is cruel
in its essence because "a match is
series of exchanges Of mental blows.
Furthermore, the golfers good shot
is a greater advantage because of its
effect upon the next shot of his OPP
ponent.
Thus it is a fairly even combina-
ton of game of skill and a contest
in psychology"
NH1HILE playing. Mr. Leach tells US,
Wv a man is so absorbed in his
game that he loses all sense of physt-
cal WEAKNESS or psychological strain,
but both of these evils are with him,
ICES the accumulation of suffering.
Mr. Leach does not believe that the
recognition OF the fact that golf is a
cruel game win injure II at all. APP
parentiy he thinks that in these over
civilized times we are savage enough
under the skin TO like things that
hurt do not know whether | should

This is truly n new view OF golf

President Wilson sent out his rea-
sons for adopting the one-man plan
Of government in the following men,
orandum:
I" have deemed 1t advisable for rea-
sons Of efficiency, economy and good
administration to have all the activi-
ties connected with the Panama canal
under the supervision of one cabinet
officer.
'The troops which will be stationed
on the canal zone for the protection
of the Panama canal are under the
secretary of war; the Panama canal
act provides that in time of war an
officer of the army shall, upon the
order of the President have exclusive
authority over the operation of the
Panama canal and the government of
the canal zone; the construction of
the canal has been succr ssfully car
ried on under the supervision of the
secretary of war, the logical conclu-
sion is, therefore, that the supervision
of the operations of the Panama canal
under the present organization should
be under the secretary Of war"

Charitable Clubs
Hold Meeting.

Societies that were invited to send
representatives to the meetings for the
formation of a Board of Associated
Charities generally responded and a
meeting was held Tuesday evening at
the rooms of the city council which
was well attended. The Organization
which had assumed a tentative form
since its inception, was made perma-
nent and the proper officers were chos-
en- tn keep it on a working basis.
The meeting was not limited to rep
resentatives of fraternal organizations
and the churches, but all who We're in
terested in aiding the worthy in the
proper way were asked to attend and
help in the work. Several cases have
recently come to the attention of those
doing charitable work that such a
board as this would have attended to.
Several persons behind the movement
were interested last week in couple
of young girls who were making a
house to house canvass, soliciting for
the relief of a woman said to be living
on Water street. At one house they
were instructed to go to the leader of
the local relief organizations. Another
interested party was informed and he
at once investigated the case and could
find no trace of the family and nothing
could be learned about it. The inves-
tigators were. convinced that the chill
dren Were making the appeals for their
own benefit. M
The Board of the Associated Charities
seeks to eliminate fraud as well as to
assist the needy.
