Morris Anglers Robertson.

Just at the time when the game was
losing n bit of its flavor, because OF the
cost Of "featheries" and the scarcity Of
good balls, the gutta ball came into be-
ing. Tom Morris, who worked in Rob-
ertson's shop at St Andrews making
featherles, was playing one day with a
chap who had a stock of gutties 1t was
Morris's misfortune to lose his feather
balls and on being pressed to play with

reported he went out in his back yard,

planted a big bush, only TO have Old
Tom drag still larger one and plant II
by the side OF the other. thus helping to
form bigger barrier between the two.
But ii was the wonderful contests
which furnished the desire for develop
ment and progress in the minds Of 9TH
ers. a feature OF sport which lives and
grows more potent with each passing
year.
Away back in 1S43 a contest was held
between Willie Dunn of NIusselburgh
and Allan Robertson. which attracted
the attention OF the whole sporting
world. Then. instead Of counting by
"holes up" it was by greens up" that
is a match won on one links gave one
point regardless of the number of holes
ahead the winner might he, and the
holes up were not carried forward This
contest was over a twenty links affair
matter OF 800 holes, and was won by
Allan Robertson by two rounds and one
