0UIMET ENTERS ARMY
Famous Golfer Would Make Ex-
celIent Leader of Men.
Probably No Player in United States
Is Better known-He Is Familiar
to the Outsider as the Ty
Cobb of the Game.

Francis Ouimet entered the Ma
tional army a couple of weeks ago.
Even though his going had been an
ticipated for some time, the transla-
ton of BOston's greatest golfer from
his home to a military camp is worth
more than passing mention.
BY quietly taking his place in the
ranks without fuss or feathers or any
attempts to evade his cOuntry's call,
Francis Ouimet has upheld the honor
of the game of golf just as every one
who knew him expected he would.
Probably no golfer in the United
States is better known than Ouimet.
Chick Evans, Walter j. Travis and
Jerome Travers are familiar names to
every golfer, but Ouimet's fame ex-
tends far beyond the limits of thes
golfing fraternity. To the outsider he
Is the Ty Cobb of golf.
Whether or not his fame is more or
less accidental is beside the question.
1t exists and ever since he SO sudden
ly acquired 1t In 1913 he has kept to q
high standard, which has enabled him
to maintain his place. If he had not
been a great golfer, even the fame
gained at Brookline would have passed
away.
It would not surprise his friends to
see him selected as one of the candi-
dates for commission who are to be
chosen from the ranks Of the drafted
men. Quiet and unassuming though he
is, he would make an excellent officer,
and his superiors are not likely to be
long in finding that out.
Golfers are proud Of Ouimet as he
takes the first steps on the long road
which eventually will lead him to the
battle front, where he will have his

CHAPTER XVII.

Louise glanced at her watch, sat uL
in bed, and turned reproachfully
toward Aline.
"Aline, do you know it is only eleven
o'clockw she exclaimed.

ter fastened to explain, "but there is 9
gentleman downstairs who wishes to
see you. He says he will wait until
you can receive him. I thought you
would like to know"
"A gentleman at this hour of the
morning" Louise yawned. "How alb.
surd! Anyhow, you ought to know
better than to wake me up before the
proper time"

piled. II hesitated for some time, but
thought you would like to know that
the gentleman was here. 1t is Mr.
Stephen Strangewey-Mr. Johns
brother"
Louise clasped her knees with her
fingers and sat thinking. She was wide
awake now.
"He has. been here some time al.
ready, madame" Aline continued. 81
did not wish to disturb you, but
thought perhaps it was better for you
to know that he was here"
"Quite right, Aline," Louise decided

him in half an hour, and get nay bath

Louise dressed herself simply but
carefully. She could conceive Of but
one reason for Stephens presence In
her house, and 1t rather amused her. II
was, of course, no friendly visit. He
had come either to threaten or to
cajole.. Yet what could he do? What
had she to fear? She went over the in
terview in her mind, imagining hin
crushed and subdued by her superior
subtlety and finesse.
With little smile of coming triumph
upon her lips she descended the stairs
and swept into her pleasantly warmed
and perfumed little drawing-room. She
even held out her hand cordially to the
dark, grim figure whose outline against
the dainty white wall seemed so map
propriate.
"This Is very nice Of you indeed, Mr.
Strangewey," she began. II had no ides
that you had followed your brothers
example and come to town."
She told herself once more that .hel
slight instinct Of uneasiness had beer
absurd. Stephens bow, although lit
tie formal and austere, was still ar
acknowledgment Of her welcome. The
shadows Of the room, perhaps, had pre-
vented him from seeing her out

She raised her eyebrows. Her tone

which have enabled him to fight his
way to two national championships.
And the reference to championships
reminds one when Ouimet sets foot In
France he will take back with him the
French amateur championship which
he won in 1914.

he had turned away and left her, after
she had heard his measured tramp de-
scending the stairs, her fingers flew to
her throat. She held herself tightly,
standing there with beating heart and
throbbing pulses. 1t was not until the
front door had closed that she had
the strength to move, to throw herself
face downward upon the couch.
Louise ate very small luncheon,
but-an unusual thing for her-she
drank two glasses Of wine. Just as
she had finished, Sophy came in, with
ink-stained fingers and serious ex.

Capper's Veto Rate Measure.

the bill Its death was due to the
same cause that has killed many val

telephone men of the state should give
this important matter their attention
so that they may thoroly understand
it and can explain il to their friends SO

The letter explains the object Of the
bill. It provided that when any new
rate rule, or change in rate was filed
with the commission, il would become
effective in thirty days thereafter, IN

lie or the commission AT the end of

The telephone men claim that the
effect of this bill would have been two
fold. They claim both the public. the
commission and the telephone com
panies would have been benefited and
point to other states where such a law
is operative and is looked upon with
favor to all parties concerned They
also point to the fact that it would
have spurred the utilities commission
to quicker decisions of which the tele-
phone men have been complaining for
