LONDON, Nov. 10. Uneasiness Is
being shown by the entente allied
powers over the attitude Of Greece
and this feeling is not likely to be
allayed by the latest news that a Ger
man military mission has arrived at
Athens by way OF bulgaria and Sal
onica.
Official circles in Paris profess to
believe there is no possibility Of Greece
hanging its present attitude for one
distinctly favorable to the central now
ers but rumors Of some such steps
being in contempl alton became SO per-
sistent that the Greek minister to
France felt called upon to visit the
foreign Office with assurances OF
Greece's continued adherence to its
traditional friendship for France.

Germans into the woods and marshes,

GOLF IS NATIONAL GAME;
At LEAST 100000 PLAY
Exceeds Baseball in Number of
Players, and Is Patronized
by Both Sexes.

Golfing Clubs Allied With United
States Association.

Golf has become Americas national
game. More American men play golf
to-day than play baseball The total
number OF men and women who play
golf every day during the open sea
son Is greater than the total number Of
men and women who witness baseball
or play baseball. Golf Is the real ma
tionai game now because both sexes
can-and do-play the game.
Baseball Is game that the majority
OF Americans play only until they are
around thirty. After that they quit
the ga1ne rs regular form OF excr-
else and pleasure, unless they so into
tho professional ranks Baseball is
too strenuous . game for any one who
does not play regularly Dut golf is
q game for ali ages. And this i'm
ported game of golf was n snecred-at
pastime by the Americans less than
ten years ago.
Golf Is game for the poor as well
AS the rich. II is not very expensive.
y set OF golting clubs. balls and other
equipment docs not cost very much
more than does q baseball uniform u
half-dozen bats. spiked shoes and
other paraphcrnalia.
There are in America to-day some
thing like 600 goltins clubs allied with
the United States Association. That
represents golf population Of Mt
least 100000. But that is only small
po!ton OF the standing army Of golf
crs.
In every city where there arc pub
lie links there are tens OF thousands
OF golfers not associated with clubs.
They play either on the public or the
private links at the invitation of some
friend who happens TO ne a member OF
the club that owns them.
There arc at least $500, o00-prob-
ably $500, 00o-golfcrs in America to-
