In the opinion Of Harry Vardon. the
English golf expert, the acme OF con-
troll lies In the ability to slice or pull
a ball at will. On occasions Vardon
has extricated himself from tight
places by resorting to this form Of
master shot, but 1t is doubtful II any
one has the pulled ball down to such
point of science as had the late VIII
Anderson.
1t was at Oakland some fifteen
years ago when the course at Bay
Side consisted OF nine holes that An

the Bautusol professional at the time,

The Watermelon leaned back wear

diently from the car. with his usual
imperturbability. Calmly and willing
ly he scaled the stone wall and set on
across the field with his captor. Tom
thoughtfully examined his gun. one
eye on the motor-cars.
The generals desire to explain was
superseded by still greater desire to
get away. The grim faces OF the two
men impressed him with the gravity
OF the event. II they were to escape.
now was the time. when the forces OF
the enemy were divided, but there was
his car. He could not leave that be.
hind and the man In the road was
fairly good reason for him to remain
where he WAS and make no attempt to
reach 1t. Bachelor had put up clever
blufY, but It had been called. and they
had to sit there until the returo aS tho

posed. for OF course the key wouldn't
it. That second man was stubborn
brute. The Lord had made mules. He
didn't intend men TO be.
Henrietta repressed a wild wish to
scream aloud. Never, never again
would she go into another mans
house unless expressly asked to do 80
by the owner. She glanced behind. up
the hill. toward the house. Alphonse
and his cnptor had Just come into sight
again and were returning through the
field. Henrietta brenthed heavily. This
was awful. When the two reached the
stone wall. she hoped she would faint.
she knew she wouldn't. she never

might not see them. Nothing could be
done. apparently. but simply whit for
the hand Of the law to fall upon them.

REDUCING iliiteracy.

Only fifteen out of every one thou
sand children from ten to fourteen
years of age in the United States are
unable to read and write.
These figures just announced by the
federal bureau of education show a
striking decrease in child illiteracy
during the last fourteen years. In 1900
the number of illiterate children be-
tween the ages Of ten and fourteen
was forty-two in every thousand. In
1910 this number was reduced to TWEEN
ty-two. Four years have further low
cred it more than 33 1-3 per cent.
Assuming only the latter rate of de-
crease, twenty years more may see
youthful illiteracy in this country al.
most cease to exist save among newly
arrived immigrant families. Nor can
the present rate of improvement fail
to produce in the same period a
marked change in the percentage OF
Illiteracy in the entire population OF
ten years and over-which in 1910 was
II or seventy-five illiterates for every
thousand.
