American golf was laughed at; where

Where others were not even able to
make a good showing Travis did some

through, and only in one or two OF his
matches was he closely pressed.

What is the greatest achievement
ever put through by an American
golfer?
Does It belong TO Chick Evans for
Winning the Open and Amateur cham
pionship in q single season?
Or does it belong to Francis Ouimes
for beating vardon and Ray in play
off for the open championship in 1913?
OF hand, we should say neither. The
greatest achievement ever recorded by
an American golfer belongs to Walter
J. Travis for winning the British ANA
teur championship in 1904.

Hardest Test.

This victory Of Travis, in our opin-
ion, belongs above any one years per-
formance made by Evans, Travers and
Ouimet. Each of these three has won
an open and an amateur championship
in this country, but none of the three
was ever able to make any impression
upon British amateur golf. Travers and
Evans each made two invasions OF Brit
ish soil, while Ouimet made one, but
of the FIVE trips none produced any
gratifying results. None of the three
was ever able to get beyond the first
two or three rounds, so the victory OF
Travis just twelve years ago stands
we'll out.

Next In Order.
Next to this achievement comes the
debate between followers OF Ouimet
and Evans.
Did Evans in 1916 range on beyond
Ouimet in 1918? As Evans won two
championships he deserves a hearing.
But Ouimet's victory was more spec
tacular--ln fact. the most spectacular
victory ever known in golf, so far SIS
any one can show.
There was double climax TO
Ouimet's sensation win. The first came
when he tied the scores of Vardon and
Ray by a wonderful final that no one
believed any man could make under the
conditions that existed. The second
came in the play-off next day. when he
finished five strokes better than Var
don and even further ahead of Ray.
To win was more than trifie. But to
win so decisively was a result never
even considered.
Travers came upon the golfng high
way in 1906. Evans made his entry in
1908. 0u.met's first real start came in
1918. Since then no one except Bob
Gardner has yet shown enough class
and consistency to rank with the three
named, and no one is now in sight un-
less young Bobby Jones lives up to his
early promise. Stewart Maiden, young
Jones's, instructor, told US recently that
his star pupil would be a champion
within two or three years beyond any
doubt. As Maiden developed the game
of Miss Stirling until she reached
championship heights, he should have
at least bunch along the right way.
"This kid" said Maiden, "has every
shot and something more; he has all
the courage and determination there is.
II he isn't soon competing upon even
terms with Evans, Travers and Ouimet
will miss an easy guess, for when you
come upon class Of that rare type you
can't very we'll go far astray."

easy mark. Generally the guns are
concealed some distance down the in.
cline in front of the sky line, unless
the guns are howitZerS. in which case
they can be best served from behind
the ridge. The idea Of placing the
guns in front Of the ridge is that the
rising ground behind them serves as
an effectual screen. as the guns them,

Self Reliance.

The spirit of self help is the root Of
all genuine growth in the individual
and, exhibited I'm the lives Of many, Il
constitutes the true source of national
vigor and strength. Help from with
out IS often cnfeebling IN its effects.
but help from within invariably invlg-
crates. Whatever is done for men or
classes to a certain extent takes away
the stimulus and necessity Of doing for
themselves, and where men are sub.
jectcd TO Overguidance and Overgov-
eminent the inevitable tendency is to
render them comparatively helpless.

Man..

As Il general thing, taken by and
large, men are honest-except with
themselves.
A man will cheat himself on his
score at golf, when he knows that fail
ing TO set down the full number Of
strokes does not make him a better
golfer.
If he is a fat man and is dieting to
reduce he will shove the weight back
pound or two on the scales when he
knows In his heart he is heavier than
that.
Then he will tell his friends about
going around yesterday in %" and
taking off a pound and a half in
three days by his diet.
With these two exceptions almost
every man is honest. Therefore all
you need to do is to discount what he
says about golf or reducing.-Judge.
