NEWEST GOLF PLAYER.
John Ball Chosen by Jerome D. Travers
for the Title,

In the September American Magazine
Jerome d. Travers, four times open golf
champion OF the United States and pres
ent open champion Of America, writes
an interesting and practical suggestive
article entitled Golf Nerve Under
Fire" He tells many stories OF great
players and makns the point that ex-
perts have their bad DAYS just the same
as "duffers" do. In the following ex-
tract taken from his article Mr.. Travers
tells about the man he thinks s the
neryiest golf player in the world:
"To my mind, il there was ever
man in golf possessed OF so-called iron
nerve. or lack of nerves, il was John
Ball, eight times amateur champion Of
Great Britain. He was as stolid as a
rock at all times. Apparently tourna.
Inent meant nothing 10 him. IL has been
recorded how on one occasion, Just be-
fore a final round for the British cham
pionship was to be started. he was found
working in his garden, with no thought
OF golf in his heal, and he only came
away 70 play his match with great re.
luctance.
yet | saw even the iron hearted Rail-
show the effect of a nervous upset. In
the British championship al Sandwich
he had come TO the eighteenth hole one
mp. All he needed here against his op.
ponent was a halved hole TO win the
match. Playing this hole Ball was only
twelve feet from the pin in two, while
his rival was of the edge OF the green.
There seemed 60 be no chance for Ball
70 beaten. He had half az least sewed
up But IN my entire golf career don't
believe ! ever saw man take a. long
for one shot as Rails opponent did from
the edge OF the green. He must have
taken az least five minutes, and IL
seemed like i've hours before he was
through. lie finally clipped up within /
three feet Of the cup. BY this time /

volition and without semblance of soil.
citation, through the spontaneous gener-
osity OF individual home-comers. To say
that it is unwelcome, so long as IL con
tinues TO be thus voluntary would be at
once atfectation and falsehood; ,bu. to
intimate that it is an expected adjunct
to the annual observance, or that it is
anything more than gratuitous and Incl.
dental would be worse than either.
The institution of old home week is
based on a far loftier plane than that.
It's primary aims and objects are TO bring
together at least once each year the sons
and daughters of the state who have
sought residence in other parts OF the
country or of the world; TO encourage
and promote family reunions and town
reunions; to bring the wanderers back
into close touch with the old home and
with the old friends. and vice versa; to
establish and maintain in each a due APP.
probation of the other, and to ensure a
condition OF things wherein men and
women. into whatever distant places they
may be led, shall be proud TO take with
them in their hearts the memories Of
their old home.
The various celebrations in this state
this week make for loyalty to New
loyalty not only on the part
of those who have come home TO partici.
pate in the observance Of old home week,
and who viii soon return TO their adopt
ed homes, but likewise on the part of
those of us who will remain 20 witness
and TO aid in the further splendid prog.
ress OF the state. There will be many
Of notes, some reminiscential
and some otherwise; and the close of old
home week this year, as usual. win find
closer bonds Of mutual respect existing
between the visiting sons and daughters
Of old New Hampshire and those who
continuously people her hills and valleys.

FINE OLD NEW ENGLAND TOWNS

FINE OLD NEW ENGLAND TOWNS.
The Connecticut river towns, prosper
GUS and having that settled-down APP
pearance, date their founding further
back than most OF the communities in
northern Vermont and New Hampshire
because the course of the large river was
the natural route for the early settlers
as they made their way northward from
the Massachusetts, Bay colony; the in
fore, such towns as Oxford on the New
Hampshire side OF the river have a long
err record of organized community life
to look back upon with pride, as one
might note in reading of the l50th an
on Wednesday. There are fine, old towns
on Wednesday. These are fine, old towns
on both banks of the Connecticut river,
splendidly favored by nature and pic
turesquely located. Their only danger is
that they may become too settled down,
too satisfied with their excellent past,
too little ambitious for the future as
the younger element leaves for the scenes
of more strenuous endesvor But for the
present they are regarded with favor for
their retention of the distinctive New
England customs and ideals. Oxford, as
well as the towns on the Vermont side
OF the river may well feel a pardonable
pride.

The allies attack on the Dardaneles
reads like football mateh-so many
wards gained or lost-but the main fact
is that the allies are keeping at the
Turkish line most persistently. In foot
ball such tactics would be likely to wear
out one or the other; and such will prob
ably prove TO be the case in the war
movements. 1t remains to be seen which
has the stronger resources, the be-
leaguered Turks with their German COM
manders or the entente powers with
their many-eolorcd troops.
