exposition.
nAls was made possible by an in.
cldent that happened to one of the
members of the Guild the past sum.
mer While on her vacation she
visited New York City and. while
there, joined a party of tourists for
a dip in the surf at Coney Island.
A hasty trip to Wanamaker's resulted
In the purchase of "A fetching bathing
suit, all tied up prettily in a small
waterproof bag.
WITH "A light heart and brand
new bathing suit she managed to get
aboard a Coney Island car and more
Wonderful than all secured a seat
On glancing at her fellow passen
gers, she discovered that she sat right
next to the prettiest. sauciest. little
Miss Midget she had ever seen.
Really, she was such tiny mite that
this fair Guilder felt immensely
thankful that she hadn't sat down
ON her, instead of BY her.
On arriving at the beach she has.
tened with the rest of her party TO
one of the bathing houses where she
was to change her apparel prepara-
tory to plunge in the surf. The
innocent little bag in which her bath
ing suit was carried, somehow or
other, seemed to have gotten smaller.
Rut then, you know, it doesn't take a
Saratoga to accommodate a bathing
suit, and even as sedate a woman as
this Guilder really is, likes to be in
style. On taking out the bathing suit
she was absolutely astounded. Now
thls SUIT was an exact model of her
own, but-great sakes-there was
doubtless a season in her life when
she could have worn it. but she was
cutting her teeth then, and all the
bathing she did was under the strict
supervision of a nurse.
The naughty Guilder thought of the
folks back home, and blushed clear
up to her eyebrows. She would have
used that bathing suit for a winter
hat by purchasing a frame from
Woolworth, but as for an article of
wearing apparel-'Well,' she sighed
1T can't be managed-rlnless | could
make the mister a pair of sleeping
socks out of it by piecing out the
heel. think it could be done" and
she sadly rolled the suit up and put
it in her shopping bag. Not until
then did she solve the riddle-it was
mixed with Miss Midget's suit on
the car,
Being woman of determined
spirit, she left in a trot for police
man, and inquired if Midget fam
lily was among the attraction at Co
ney. He directed her to the Midget
village, and with no great difficulty
she made the acquaintance of the
proper Midget and exchanged suits.
The incident established a friendship
between them, which has continued.
1t was the result of this friendship
that has brought the Midget family
to Ardmore. The Midgets are an
extremely interesting family and will
answer any questions you ask them
except in regard TO their age.

and up till then had led the ordinary
life of continental princeling. He
was educated i'm part at the military
school, in part by private tutors, but
without any training in the difficult
art OF kingship. He is, or seems to be.
the most conscientious of men. The
moment he found himself heir to the
throne, he set to work to improve
what he considered his imperfect edu-

pleasure found in his reference to art

Columbia Country Club Draws
Largest list Of Players For
Handicap TWosome.

Independence Day, 1915. goes down In
EolfinE annals as the biggest day In his
tory for the followers Of the ancient
game hero. Greens committees at the
ave clubs estimate today that more ac-
tion was gotten on the courses yester-
day than In any other single day to
date.
The fact that golf has gained In pop
ularity by leaps and bounds during the
last twelve months was never better
demonstrated than in yesterdays play.
Tournaments OF every sort were offered
for members and were patronized to the
fulles. extent.
As a result Of the competition. 1t is
expected that some new ratings Will SO
down on the books, and handicaps are
expected to be reduced forthwith.
Handsome prizes were offered In every
event, and the golfers responded with
some fine scores. Players with good
handicaps came through with wins,
pushing the cracks to tho limit. 1t was,
indeed, a day for the players with lib
eral handicaps.

The Red Sox are strong contenders

gregation. and the machine is beginning
to play the careful, certain game every
one conceded 1t could. With the ac-
quisition of Jack" Barry. formerly
star shortstop OF the Athletics, the Red
Sox were materially strengthened, and
from now on should give the White
Sox a merry race of It.
Detroit's hitters are matchless in
either league. but its weakness lies in
the pitchers. Only Dauss and Dubuc
seem able to stand the heavy work
accorded to them and many predict
that one or the other of this pair will
fall down before the last two months
