ton with plan initiated by the Dun

AS there are about 1000 golf clubs

pate that the combined efforts OF their
membership will realize hundreds OF
thousands of dollars for this patriotic
purpose. Fertilizer and seeds. as well
as necessary tools have been donated
by clubs. and many Individual men,
bers and hundreds of players have
given pledges to perform at least forty
