INTERESTING GOLF NOTES
FROM ALL LOCAL CLUBS

halt the players while they were hunt
ing for lost balls
A swath of evenly plowed ground
across the course would not be any
more unsishtly than some of the tall
grass and weeds now permitted to
stand and would cut the expenses of
the players to an appreciate extent.
Two or three lest balls take the keen
edge off an afternoon Of pleasure when
one considers that the balls cost rs
cents apiece.
The man who puts forward the sus-
gestion that the rough be superseded
by a strip of plowed ground fails to
appreciate the awful diff1culty in which
he is becoming enmeshed. He would
destroy one Of the ancient traditions of
this game about which more traditions
and ancient practices hang than any
other form of sport. Not only that. but
he would surely not improve the ap-
pearance of the courses. and the man
who would prefer a course denuded
OF grass in order that he might save
paltry couple of balls a week. does
not fall in line with the practices and
virtues Of this king Of games
