III Is u WORSE OlithSt ioi o
man in your position to violate the
law than IL is for the minimizing,
wayward and unframed youth,
declared the Judge.
"a man who presides over the
school hoard Of the city or Ia
coma presides over the destinies
of the city of Tacoma.
Made Lots of Money.
al think 1t was Eschelus who
once said that no greater wrong
is done than to elevate to posi-
Ition of honor the unworthy.
1T thereby leads the young to
think that the way to eminence is
thru the walks of unworthiness.'
To the plea of Judge Shackle-
ford, representing Hoyt, that the
violation was only technical one
"a matter of inadvertance rath-
er than wilful intent" Judge East
erday came back with a singing
reply, asserting he had good rea-
son to believe the drug store had
made '1ots OF easy money" and
could well afford to pay the maxi
mum fine.
"In this case the charge is OF
selling quart OF intoxicating
liquor where a pint was prescrib-
ed" said the Judge.
Recalls Van Buren, Case.
This company has made lots
of easy money out of what | think
was the illegal sale of such large
quantities of alcoholic liquor pre-
scribed in so short time, that
it can be no hardship upon this
company to pay the fine OF $3.50,
and that will be the fine. If 1t
were an individual there might be
imposed ajail sentence. In this
instance there cannot be a jail
sentence and the fine will be $50. =
The Judge recalled the recent
trial of DR.. M. F. Van Buren,, In
which Il was shown that more
than 500 prescriptions written by
him had been filled by the Crown
Drug Co.
Other Offenses.
1.-The suggestion has been made
by the deputy prosecuting attor-
ney that there are other offenses
Of like nature that may be shown
here.
II cannot but recall that a few
days ago there was brought in this
court a case wherein there was
something IKE 500 prescriptions
filled by the Crown Drug Co.,
issued by one practitioner in the
course of 20 days, the prescrip-
lions showing that they were is
sued for quarts largely, which in
dicates that. the Crown Drug Co.
has been doing a very extensive
business In the sale of liquor.
Can't Blame Training.
Some men are so unfortunate
in life, in their training, that
they are brought before the court
charged. with some violation Of the
law they can claim that their
training is responsible.
"In this instance the Crown
Drug Co.. a corporation. is inform
Cd d6dihSt. IL 10 OnC vi titC iVutt-
ing drug companies and drug dis
pensers in the city.
1.-THE plea cannot be entered
here, and is not entered, that
sometimes is entered by defend
ants in criminal cases, that their
training in life has been such that
they have been brought into the
proceeding"
Charge Altered.
The particular charge to which
the Crown pleaded guilty was that
iof giving A. A. Riggs a quart of
whisky on Sept. 20, when the pre-
Iscription issued by DR.. Van Buren,
called for only one pint.
The original complaint charged
| was that of keeping Intoxicating
liquor with unlawful intent to sell,

Crown trial was To hare started u

The Most Rugged Test

Lido, golf course built out Of the
sea and the sand. is the most rugged
test Of them all.
1t is the finest example Of seaside
course that one could find. From any
one of the eighteen tees the Atlantic
seems to be less than a mashie shot
away, while on at least two holes the
white-crested surf crashes within few
feet Of the green's edge.
How hard is Lido?
Well, it is hard enough. Peter Lees.
its famous turf guardian, figures it to
strokes harder than the National, AL
ways figured before as the toughest
test.
Here are few subtle statistics: The
record at the National Is 70; at Pine
Valley the record is 49, at Baltusrol
10, at Garden City II. The best score
ever made at Lido, and this wasn't made
either in competition or from the back
tees, is II, returned by Willie McFar-
lane and Gil Nichols

spite the one-sided score, the contest
proved interesting. Twenty thousand
spectators. including several thousand
soldiers and sailors. watched the bat
tie.
The Navy men scored two touch
downs when the game was less than five
minutes old. On the very first play
after the kickoff Cannell handed a
double pass TO Eddie Casey, and the lat
ter tore down the field in his 1915
stride thirty-fve yards 20 the Army's
20-yard line. Casey carried the ball 70
the 11-yard line, and another double
pass. Murray to Cannell. paved the way
for Tom Enwrght to be pushed across
the soldiers goal line. Billy Murray
kicked this goal, as he did the three
others.
The Navy kept right after HRugh-
tons eleven and was soon in posiuoh
TO drive home another counter. All ey-
change Of kicks gave the sailors the
ball on their 30-yard line. Capneii
tried both ends. gaining thirty wards
all told, and then Casey, on pass
from Murray. raced TO the 20-yard line
Cannel skinned left tackle for fifteen
yards and Enwright, in two shOves,
landed the second touchdown.
The second period yielded another
touchdown, the feature play of tae con-
test. which carried Raymie Skilton. the
Navy's big halfbsck, behind the Acmy

catch of Enwright's long forward pass.

even one first down.
The final score was made in the
third period by Cannell. after 10.
yard run, the Navy carrying tire ball
steadily from mdfield. Murray kicked
his fourth goal Of the game.
Leary's team played powerful and
brilliant football throughout, but the
Army showed lack Of practice. With
darkness approaching, the soldiers made
a dying bid for offensive strength. nut
after one or two hard tries to get
going the whistle blew for closing time.
Eight thousand dollars, the proceeds
OF the game, were equally divided be-
tween the two teams to buy athletic
equipment in both services.

Fine Holes

Lido has its share OF fine, interesting
holes. The short holes are all good,
not record breaking by any means, but
OF standard value. None of them is
weak or dull.
The two-shot holes all require a we'll
hit tee shot and fine iron, with no
room for any error. You get nowhere
at Lido with missed shot-nowhere
except the bottom Of trap.
The two long holes, the fourth and
the seventeenth, include no missed shot
II they are 10 be reached in 3. For
ground was at n premium when this
course was built, the starting point, in
fact. being nothing but stretch Of sea
and few islands of sard where &
tremendous amount Of dredging was
needed before work could be even
started.
The most intere sting feature of Amer
icas hardest course is the view one
gets from every turn-a View either of
still water from inland drifts, or
view of gray and white-capped breakers
rushing for the fairway and the green,
but ways halted just few yards to
the right.
And after one has played the course
1t Is easv TO see why no one has ever
made 40 and why only few have
ever broken so. For it Is easy to make
mistake a; Lido, and mistake is
penalized more there than anywhere
else.
J. s. Worthington. the well known
English golfer, d plus I man now in
America, says that Lido Is at least one
or two strokes harder than any course
in England or Scotland.
Here are the distances from tho reg
ular course-300 yards shorter than the
championship course:

The course winds along so close TO
the oceans edge that it seems an easy
shot TO drive ball into the surf from
almost any tee. For a summer day
this effect must be particularly sooth-
ing and cooling But, whenever played,
the effect Is bound TO be more than
usually striking. and we can add an
extra Lido recommendation TO any one
developing an over-confdent attitude
to any one who has found too easy
scoring upon his homo course, Lido will
effect . perfect cure. We guarantee II.

Tales of a WaySide Tee
By GRANTLAND RICE.

There will always be a widespread
disagreement as to what constitutes
the best golf course in America.
You will hear arguments offered in
behalf of the National, Pine Valley,
Myopia. Brae Burn, Oakmont, Garden
City and many others, East or West.
We don't believe there will be any
such argument as to the hardest course
in Uncle Sans embattled domains
Not by any one who has ever played
the Lido course, near Long Beach, Long
Island.
In the way of difficult scoring and
battling against nature overhead and
underfoot, Lido has the call.
