have laid stress on the keeping OF
the left arm straight--a point the books
ana professional golfers do not go into,
60 far as l know-but It Is, nevertheless,
= very important factor In the correct
golf stroke.
mont bend IL at the elbow; or, as
have said before, bend Il as little as pos
slhle The turning of the body, with the
hands going straight back, will remove
any tendency in this direction. 1 empha-
aize this point for two reasons In tho
e-st place, a straight left arm gives
snre Guide to bringing the club head back
~ the exact spot from where II started;
seeondly, It ia the foundation upon which
,he wrists acquire their tension as they
drop the club back Of the head. giving
them that tremendous spring which l
nointed out above is the only wrist action
IN the golf stroke. The straight left arm
IL the one sure guide that this powerful
release OF wrist tension will be delivered
~ tbe proper time and I'm the proper
direction assisted of course, by the other
narts of the body coming properly INTO
the stroke. 'Ehe left arm, from the
shoulder to the wrist joint, Is the pivot
On which the hands, wrists, arms ana
shoulders work in the golf stroke, or per-
hans one should say II is the rudder, for
a steers the work of these members.
To impress on your mind the fact Of
.ha straight backward swing Of the hands
and also the fact that the left arm can
ho kent straight without discomfort Try
the following simple exercise Take
stance and grip keeping the head stu
ana the eyes on the ball. Without NOV
ing the hands or the arms, but allowing
them to go with the movement OF the
hodv. turn the body at the hips, to the
right. to the point to which 1t turned in
swinging back, easing the left leg and
foot. When this position has been reach
ed raise the hands straight up from the
ground. retaining a firm grip, until they
are about the height of the right shoul-
der. Now raise the club with the wrists
don't bend the left elbow and notice che
right hand 20 around the left hand, and
that this action bends the right elbow,
until the shaft is raised as much as Vt
can be without absolute strain on the
left wrist-but get all the tension you
can. You will find that there will be n
slight opening of the two last fingers on
the left hand, that the grip will be in
the thumb and first two fingers of this
hand, where it should be.
In this position the shaft will be point
ing upward and backward at an angle
and will pass opposite the right ear.
Now turn the shoulders. letting the left
90 down and around under the chin ana
the right up and back. This will bring
the club shaft into correct position back
of the neck. The hands will be at the
height Of the right ear, the left arm
straight and the right arm and elbow
will be correctly positioned. Right here
let me say that any attempt to keep
the right elbow down, in and close to
the body is wrong, has caused a lot of
misconception and has cramped the style
of many a golfer. .'

Capt. John Herail, a French caval-
ry officer, was tried by courtmartial
in Paris, Saturday, and acquitted Of
killing his wife at Compeigne last
November, because she persisted in
following the army to be near him in
direct violation Of orders issued by the
military authorities. When Capt.
Herail was sent to the front his wife,
to whom he was deeply attached, dis
covered that he was stationed at
Compeigne and went there to visit
him. The French commander-in-
chief had just issued a circular pro-
hibiting all officers and soldiers from
receiving their wives during the cam
paign. A superior officer demonstrated
with Capt. Herail, and though the
captain endeavored to persuade his
wife to return home, she continued to
postpone her departure. A second
warning was given the captain with
no better results, and when a third
warning came he was told he would
be cashiered unless Nine. Herail i'm
mediately left. This she refused to
do, and the cavalry officer, fearing
dishOnor and degradation, shot and
killed the For some time after
the crime, Herail was a mental and
physical wreck and it was feared he
would not survive. Recently, howev-
er. the captain recovered n was
turned over to the military police by
the hospital authorities for courtmar-
tial.

Summary Of Activities as Understood
in London Yesterday.
Les Eparges, taken April 9, by the
French, after a series Of desperate
engagements costing countless lives,
again has come under the fire OF Ger
man guns. 1t was around this point
hat the Germans, according to q
French official report, lost 10000 men
i'm two months fighting. 1t is here
that Gen. Joffre, the French COM
mander, is bringing his strength to
bear on the German wedge to force
it out Of the allies side 30 that the al
lied line that stretches in front OF the
great German fortress of Metz may
be Strengthened.
After q lull Of two days, the Ger
mans prepared for their counterat-
tack on Les Eparges by a severe bonn
bardment and a heavy rifle fire; then
in the early hours of the morning, they
advanced on the position, but were
forced to retire. The extent OF this
offensive is not known, but 1t a.
been reported that the Germans look
upon this position, which commands
the plain Of the Woevre, as one or
great importance, and further attacks
may be looked for.
otherwise the situation in the west
ern wal zone Is Of comparatively lit
tie interest, owing to the general calm
that prevails.
In the east, although the Russians
have occupied the principal positions
in the western section Of the Carpa-
thians, there is one height, known as
Height 992, which they have not been
able to master. Nevertheless, they are
reported to be moving down the south
ern slopes and in q fair way to make
an advance into Hungary.
Reports persist Of heavy firing In
the North sea, but no explanation
either officially or unofficially Is
forthcoming. These rumors date back
as far as April 7, and the latest, with
in "a hours. reports firing off Scar
borough which seemed to indicate a
naval engagement. But the British
have v~ouchsafed no infor-
one way or another.
The British steamer Wayfarer, q
G, 900 ton vessel which had been In
the Liverpool Galveston trade for ten
years and had recently been requisi-

German torpedo. One hundred and
twenty men from the Wayfarer have
been landed at Falmouth.

Once paid into the treasury, only an
act of congress could get h $4,000

granted a temporary injunction on
this phase Of the case. The justice
set April 16 as the day for answer by
the defendants to show cause why

an unusual desire for information
concerning the bank was shown by
Mr.. Williams shorty after he assumed
the office Of comptroller more than a

Prior to that Time, in December, 1918,
it says Mr.. McAdoo charged officers
of the bank with responsibility for
