PIT. DEFIANCE LINKS
1tfORE "

A few years ago golf was considered game for
mollycoddles and old men.
Also it was game for the rich, the near rich and
the snobs.
Membership in country club was necessary.
That meant time, money and social aspirations. You
had to motor out to play golf. And you had to be
properly alfred And you had to buy luncheons and
drinks and things.
The fellows whose amusement consisted OF Kelly
pool on Saturday night and baseball whenever they
could play it, hestated about expressing their
opinion of golf and golfers.
It was considered perfectly safe to insult person
who golfed And most peoples idea of nothing at
all, physically and mentally, was the chap who
chased little, inoffensive white ball around TO-
acre lot trying to coax it into divers and sundry
holes with the aid of numerous crooked sticks that
bore silly names.
Today it's different. The public parks in many
big cities being turned into golf links In many
cities the demand for golf is far ahead of that for
any other sport, not excepting baseball
It costs nothing, in some Cities little in others, aft
er the initial expense of sticks and balls the course
is open to all comers the games properly super
vsed to prevent confusion, and old and young male
and female, fat and thin, sick and well-all of them
are playing golf.
The golf enthusiasm hasn't reached all parts of
the country yet but it is spreading like prairie fire
in August It's the most beneficial the least expen
sive form of amusement and recreation yet devised
It's the greatest most interesting, absorbing ex-
herating and stimulating method of exercise for the

Rv Gibson Gardner

WASHINGTON, ID. u, Oct'
6.-Now that the allies have
shown it is possible to force
a German trench, the time
has come when the story
which previously the British
censor always has deleted-
of the English munitions
scandal can be told.
1t was this scandal that
was at the bottom of the
tragic failure of the first
British ''drive."
1t had its basis in the failure
of the munitions department to
realize that the days of usefulness
for shrapnel shells are over. e
was because they tried to make
Field Marshal French use shrap-
mel instead of explosive shells that
the British were defeated SO de-
cisiyely at Neuve Chapelle, while
their French allies were winning.
At that engagement the French
fired before beginning their as
sault on the German trenches,
100000 shells in two hours. The
British fired less than 10000.
The French gained their ground;
the British were thrown pack
with frightful slaughter.
How IL Works Out?
Why the demand for explosive
shells? Trench warfare. Explod-
ing over modern bomb-proofed
trenches, shrapnel is like patter-
ing rain. The men sit inside and
wait until the shrapnel shower is
over. Then they are ready TO
meet a charge. The French have
learned the only way to break
through the trench is to hurl ex-
plosive shells on one place until
the trench is powed up, the
barbed wire cut and the occupants
of the trench either killed or so
disorganizzed as to be unable TO
make a concerted resistance.
At first, Field Marshal Sir John
French had ordered 20 per cent
of explosive shells and the rest OF
the old types; then SO per cent:
then 20 per cent. But the war-of-
flee had got used to doing things
in routine way and the orders
too often went around in an end
less circle. Then came Neuve
Chapelle and the munitions ,can.
dial. The public realized that the
Spring drive was not to happen
I Explosive Shells the Thing.
Then 1t was found that France
had realized and met the crisis
A little man, one M. Thomas, q
socialist deputy, as head of The
munitions department, had per.
formed miracles. He had mobil.
lied every factory, shop and viii.

MATTER
BEFORE
BOARD

Point Defiance park has
che site for Tacoma's pro-
posed municipal golf links.
G. T.. Dunkleberger, attOr-
ney and enthusiastic golfer,
today asserted his belief that
the park property at the
Point would make one of the
finest locations for golf
course i'm the country. He
put his suggestions formally
before the park board today.
In the southwest corner of the
park he pointed out is large va
cant area, grown over fairly
heavily with timber. There is
little possibility that this area
will ever be developed for actual
park purposes because of the
present adequate size of the
grounds.
THAT piece of land would make
an admirable golf Site" asserted
Dunkleberger today.
Easy to Get There.
ut would be easy of access
only 80 minutes car ride from
the center of the city. 1t woult
be close to the park pavilion ant
restaurant, and within a minute
walk of the swimming pool.
Work of clearing the lane
could be done by city prisoners, al
was done with the Seattle goli
course. The men need exercise
and the work would not be hard
A golf course of 100 acres coult
be cleared with ease
Should Fall i'm Line.
Dunkelberger heartily favors
city-owned course.
Every other city in the coun
try is either using or building
one" he said. They have every
where proved self-sustaining. Tn
park board could make no bet
ter investment than to spend some
of its 1916 money towards estap
fishing a peoples links at Poin
Defiance"

big factor in the present war.
IL is important the United

that he could not support him IN

Another is that when parlia-
