with childish Delight.
Now we see him buying Clubs, al
though he refers to them as Sticks
proving that he is still Il cropping NeO-
phyte.
He thinks that a shorter Shaft and
more of q Lay-Back will enable him to
drive a Mile The GOOseneck Putter
will save him two on every Hole. Also,
will the Man please show him an Iron
guaranteed to reach all the way down
to the Dimple and PUNK it right in the
Eye.
Then all Of the new Implements laid
out at Home and Wife sitting back,
listening to Lecture as to what will
be pulled off on the succeeding Day
Of Rest.
She had promised at the Altar to
Love, Honor and Listen. Still, it was
trying to see the 0nce-loved Adult ca
vOrting on the verge of Dementia and
know that she was Helpless.
He sailed forth with those going to
Early Mass, and returned at the YES
per Hour Caked with Dust and ninety
eight per cent Locoed.
1t seems that at the sixth hole on the
Last Round where you cross the Crick
twice, he fell down and broke both
Arms and both Legs. SO he tore up
the Medal Score, gave all the Clubs TO
the Caddy, and, standing on the grass
Summit of the tall Ridge guarding the
| Bunker, he had lifted a grimy Mitt
and uttered the Vow of Remuneration.
In other words, he was Through.
The Senile Wrecks and the prattling
Juveniles. for whom the Game was in
vented, could have his Part Of 1t for
| all time.
Never again would he walk on the
Grass or cook his Arms or dribble Sand
all over the dark and trampled Ground
where countless Good Men had suffer
ed.
No, Indeed!
So next day he bought all the Para
phernalia known to the Trade, and his
name was put up at a Club.
1t was one of those regular and sure
enough Clubs. High East Winds pre-
vailed in the Locker-ROOm. Every
Member was a Chick Evans when he
got back to the nineteenth hole.
Mr.. PallZey now began to regard the
Ancient and Honorable Pastime as
compendium of SacramentS, OrdealS,
Nominations, and Ceremonial Formali
ties.
He resigned himself into the Gus
tOdy of professional Laddie with
large staring Knuckles and a Dialect
that dimmed all the memories of Lau-
der.
In short time the Form was clas-
sy, but the Score had to be taken out
and buried after every Round.
Mr.. Pallzey saw that this Mundane
Existence was not all Pleasure. He
had found his Life-Work. The Lode
Star of his declining Years would be
an even one hundred for the eighteen
Flags.
Wife would see him out in the |
Street, feeling his way along, totally
unmindful Of his Whereabouts. She |
would lead him into the Shade, snap |
her Fingers, call his Name, and gradu-
ally pull him out of the Trance.
He would look at her with Il fiImy |
Gaze and smile family. as if partly re-
membering, and then say: "Don't for
get to follow through. Keep the head |
downright with the left-nO hunch- |
ing-pivOt on the hips. For a Cuppy |
Lie take the Nib. If running up with
the Jigger, drop her dead. The full
st. Andrews should not be thrown in
to a Putt Never up, never in. Lift
the flag. Take pick-out from Casual
Water but play the RoadWays. To
overcome Slicing or Pulling, advance
the right or left Foot. Schlafing and
Socketing may be avoided by adding
hook with t0p-Spin or vice versa.
Things to be remembered in Driving
from the Tee. One is Stance. l for
get the other twenty-five"
Then the Partner of his joys and
Sorrows, with the account on the Deb
1t Side, would shoot twenty Grains of
aspirin llllO llI1 anu plduL IllIu III |
the Flax.
Next morning at Breakfast he would
break 1t to her that the Brassie had de-
veloped too much of a Whip and he
had decided to try forty-inch Shaft.
They had Seasoned Hickory for
Breakfast. Bunkers for Luncheon and |
he Fair Green for Dinner.
AS a matter of course they had to !
give up their comfortable Home among | ,
he Friends who had got used to them
md move out to a StrawbOard Bunga
0w so as to be near the SHAMELESS.
Mrs. Pallzey wanted to do the White :
Mountains, but Mr.. Pa1lZey needed her. !
lie wanted her to be waiting on the i,
Feranda at Dusk, so that he could tell :
Ter all about it from the preliminary t
Address to the final FOOZle. ?
Sometimes he would come home en- 7
elOped in a foglke Silence which {
would last beyond early Candle Light 7
ng, when he would express the Opin-
on that the Administration at Wash c
ngton had proved q Failure. 9
