This drama presents a new idea.
'Twould serve as suffrage propaganda.
No working wife reads her title clear
Under our laws; no goose a gander.
SO, when Mrs. Roberts of New York
Saves her errant hubby's firm from
liquidation
She finds herself out in the cold
As per unjust legal citation.
Though the wife work let husband
own and rule,
Justice both blind and deaf makes
wife a fool.
Past mistress OF the handbag trade.
The wronged wife tells a righteous
whopper;
Rather than own herself betrayed
Proclaims hubby Ill: he's come a
cropper
And hied abroad with weak Charlotte,
An employee, far too confidine.
They flee to the land OF kangaroo.
Proud WHEY their misconduct hiding.

Restoring handbag Co.'S foundation;
Like Emma McChesney she behaves

His devotion quite platonic.
And though some day he may be glad

As in the famed poetic story.
The Roberts have a manly kid
In whom both Pa and Mamma glory.
Because of him they call a truce
Touching Daddy's taste for Charlotte

But repentent Charlotte. too, returns,
And, after some futile bravado,
The wife's third degree melts her to
tears:
Proves her defense the merest shadow.
And now The Punch" is served up
hot and strong,
Charlotte is deftly grilled to own her
wrong.
You see her stern Papa Is out to
shoot
If e'cr the truth he can but root;
But once the wife gets Lottie's signed
confession
She confines It to the legal profession.
So The Man Pays" after all,
During the lawyers consultation.
He agrees to share and share alike
And then departl for remote station.
The amended honorable he makes,
Before Manhattsn's soil he shakes.

No one Is shot, silent traducer;

BALTIMOREANS SEEK
EARLY Tennis DATE
Oriole Racqueters Want Post-Season
Matches of August Is Moved
Forward.

Louis I. Doyle is in receipt OF a
communication from Baltimore ask
ing If the date for the post-season
inter-city tennis match between the
champion teams of Washington ana
Baltimore cannot be brought forward.
The event is scheduled for August 25.
but Baltimore seems to be much
speedier than our little burg and has
already picked its representative team.
None of the local leagues have ended
as yet and in fact, one-the Suburban
runs all the way into september.
This being the case, there Is no
chance for the date to be brought for
ward, as Washington will have all II
can do to decide its championship
team by that date.
Norbert Dempsey made a 70 over
the Columbia Country Club course
last Saturday afternoon with two bad
holes. This came within one stroke
OF the course record of Eddie" Eynon
who is credited with a 72 and two I3's
this season. George James has also
counted a 70 within the last six weeks.
As a matter of fact. Columbia golfers
have turned in more exceptional
rounds this season than ever before.
II is unfortunate, however, that none
of those mentioned above was made
in regularly scheduled events and so,
although Eynon's 72 has been duly
accredited as a course record. MS
name will not be put on the plaque
kept in the clubhouse showing the
player making the best round over the
course in an event. This also applies
to James and Dempsey.
Edward B. Eynon, jr.. of Columbia.
seems to have a mania for breaking
course records this year. Last week
in a match with Or. J. r. DeFarges,
he turned in a "a, beating the latter
3 UP and .. The best previous ANA
teur mark was IS held by Richard
Beattie. now assistant professional at
Chevy Chase. Eynon's 81 also equals
the professional mark which was set
by both Dave and Jack Burgess.
The July event at the Washington
Golf and Country Club will be an
nounced in a day or so. The June
event was so late getting under way
that the committee played II in eights
instead of sixtcens. notwithstanding
this. the event is not yet completed.
Richard Halves. who took the second
eight, being the only prize-winner TO
date. w. c. Barr was runner-up.
Bannockburn expects to hold reg
ular championship event for its wom-
en- players this year. Mrs. J. r. De
Farges is playing an exceptional game
now and will defend her title. Mrs.
Bruce L. Taylor and Miss Elsie Pat
terson are other Bannockburn players
who are now going at top speed, the
latter going around the course in
forty-nine last week. which is within
a few strokes OF the women's course
record.
The No. and L. greens at the
Washington Golf and Country Club.
which were opened up this year FOR
the first time are now in perfect con-
dition and in as good shape as any OF
the older ones.
Young Emmons Smith is improving
steadily in his game and is fast forg-
ing toward the front as one of the
best players at the Columbia Coun-
try Club. Emmons Is now gettins
longer distance on his drives and he
needs very little improvement at his
short game to rank him with Column
bias best.
