IN MEMORIAM.
His gentle voice Is strangely hushed

His gentle voice Is strangely hushed
And closed his laughing eyes
His kindly, loving tender heart
In solemn stiffness lies.
Who could have thought that death
would pluck
The jewel bevond all price:
Whose gift it was to make tor us
A glorious paradise.
But cherished memories arise
OF words and smiles so sweet,
That made the day and hours of Joy
And happiness replete.
To miss presence such as his
At morning, at noon and night
To see lifes promises fade so soon
Is like a heavy blight.
Fall gently snow flakes on the spot
That covers his sweet face;
Blow gently chilling winter winds
Around his resting place.
But he has crossed the river
He is with his savior now;
lie has laid rs de earth's crosses
And the crown is on his brow.
No sorrowing thought can reach thee
No grief is thine today
God gives thee joy for mourning;
Thy tears are wiped away.
Thou art waitino in that city
Where the saints and angels wait,
And we'll know thee dearest Bernard
When we reach the pearly gate.
Your sorrowful father and sisters

A Few Suggestions on the Best Grips

The Importance of the general equip

proposed to mention a few things to

problems are the best grips for the
hands and feet So far as the former
is concerned, to many this is no trouble

wax on their grips and have no fur

away much of the pleasure of the

Something I'm the way of an alterna-

Der. One would imagine that this ma
terial would wear the hands out sooner
than anything else, but this is not the
case. There seems to be a prejudice
against wearing gloves for golf, but
they are really quite easy to play in,
although it takes a few weeks to
get thoroughly accustomed to them.
Gloves have the advantage of keeping
the hands warm, as well as preventing
them from becoming sore. cracked or
blistered.
A firm grip for the feet is Just as
important as a good grip for the hands.
1t has been said that the ordinary
nails which are put in golf shoes are
not much good. Gymnasium shoes are
suggested for dry weather. but are
practically useless If the ground be-

to play In gymnasium shoes or those
with no heels and then suddenly to
change to thick soled boots, for when
these have studs or nails fitted the
player stands quite an inch higher. A
difference like this is apt to alter the
game of any one considerably. and one

Keep Up Your Knitting.

The recent misunderstanding in
regard to knitting by Red l. Cross
workers has called fort' the follow
ing statement from Secretary or
War Baker:
"An apparent q misunderstanding
has arisen in some quarters regard
ing the attitude of the War Depart
ment toward the knitting Of sweat
ers and comforts for our soldiers.
The department has in no sense dis
.couraged' the furnishing of such
garments through the American Red
Cross and is appreciative OF the
spirit which prompts American wo-
men inytheir knitting for the troops.
1t is true that a sweater is not in
Guided in the regular equipment OF
the army and it is not regarded as an
absolutely essential garment. How
ever, a knitted sweater is a garment
of great serviceability and constl-
trtes a welcome addition to SOL
dier's equipment. particularly when
the soldier is on duty in the rigorous
winter climate of France.
While the department itself has
not officially called upon any organ
ization to supply sweaters. certain
divisions Of the army have made
such reduisition and have been graft
fed that the supply was available.
The work of American women who
desire to add this comfortable artl-
Gle to the clothing supplied the SOL
diers by the War Department is
worthy of encouragement
