A Few Suggestions on the Best orlps
For Hands and Feet.

A Few Suggestions on the Best 0rlps
For Hands and Feet.
The Importance OF the general equip
ment OF golfer In all its details IA
often overlooked, and it is therefore
proposed to mention few things 20
be remembered. Perhaps the greatest
problems are the best grips for the
hands and feet. So far as the former
is concerned, TO many this is no trouble
ut all. for they just rub some pitch or
wax on their grips and have no fur.
Their difficulty. but there are others
who cannot use either of these because
it makes the hands sore, thus taking
away much of the pleasure OF the
game.
Something I'm the way OF an alterna-
tive TO be recommended is rough rub
Der. One would imagine that this ma.
terial would wear the hands out sooner
than anything else. but this is not the
case. There seems TO be a prejudice
against wearing gloves for golf, but
they are really quite easy 10 play In
although it takes few weeks to
get thoroughly accustomed 10 them.
Gloves have the advantage OF keeping
the hands warm, as well as preventing
them from becoming sore. cracked or
blistered. .
A firm grip for the feet is just as
important as good grip for the hands.
II has been said that the ordinary
nails which are put In golf shoes are
not much good. Gymnasium shoes are
suggested for dry weather, but are
practically useless IL the ground be-
comes Mt all wet. II is great mistake
to play I'm gymnasium shoes or those
with no heels and then suddenly to
change to thick soled boots. for when
these have studs or nails fitted the
player stands quite an inch higher. A.
difference like this is apt TO alter the
game OF any one considerably. and one
golfer who tried II sliced all his drives
until he got accustomed to his higher
position. s.a4 * eoai
A player should always see that he
is thoroughly comfortable and should
avoid carrying bulky things In his
pockets, such as balls, which often get
In the way when approaching and put
ting. These articles should be placed
I'm charge OF the caddie during the
round. or. failing the caddie, they
should be put into the pocket OF the
bag. No golfing equipment Is complete
without a rag or buster to dry the
grips in the event OF rain or to wipe
the hands IL they should perspire I'm
hot weather.-New York Post.

Two Incidents In the Careers ct IN

More than ten years before Belgian
relief was ever thought OF q young
American mining engineer who was In
charge of important mining properties
in China received visit early one
morning from q burly Belgian. The
Belgian brusquely informed the young
American that he had come to take
charge of the properties. The Ameri-
can had received no official notice or
the change In management. and ne QUO
not much like the manners OF the Bel
gian, but he quietly accepted his new
status. He explained to the Belgian
that two heads often are better than
one and offered to help manage the
properties jointly. The Belgian &C
cepted.
The two men worked together for
about six months. Then one day the
burly Belgian lost his temper and with
II his more experienced fellow mana
ger, for the young American promptly
resigned his position and left the en-
pl0y of the company.

was Herbert Clark Hoover.

WAR BREAD RULE
 |s NOW IN FORGE
HOusehOlders Are Restricted in Buy ing Wheat Flour Under New
 Regulations, Effective Monday.

Bakers began Monday the manu- fracture of the new Liberty Loaf, a war bread containing five per cent substitute for wheat flour, prescribed by the food administration as a part of its 1918 food conservation pro- gram. At the same time grocefs will sell to householders wheat flour only when the purchasers buy an equal amount of some other cereal.
 Both housholders and merchants in Newport and Jackson county should feel it their patriotic duty to con- form to this new regulation, because it's violation will mean that just that amount of hindrance placed in the way to a peaceful and honorable con- clusion of theswar
 The percentage of substitute Hours used by baking establishments will be increased gradually until 20 per cent substitution is reached on Feb ruary 24th. As substitutes the bak- CTS may use either some other cereal or Hours made from potatoes or beans.
 Hotels, restaurants and other pub lie eating places will be required to observe the regulations laid down for baking establishments.
 To force wheat conservation both wholesalers and retailers will be re- quired to limit their purchases of wheat flour to 70 per cent of last years supplies. The remaining 30 per cent will be taken from the mills by the Food Administration for the purpose of creating an export sur plus and building up reserve store to fill emergency needs.
 Other features of the new conser- vation program, announced Saturday in President Wilson's proclamation are two wheatless days-Monday, and Wednesday,; one meatless day ]. Tuesday; two porkless days-Tues- day and Saturday-and a 10 per cent voluntary reduction in the housholc sugar ration.

 lot of ice and snow, without which Newport was lonesome and lost for awhile, but he evidently mistook the lonesome feeling for the blues and slipped in sheet of sleet, or, that is, glaise, Saturday night while nobody was looking. Not satisfied with the glaise he willed a half-inch of cold rain on the town, which threw chill and froze tight and sent many man on his ear. Also he sent some of our best citizens to their houstops to stop the flow through intake pipes

 ID CHAMBERLAIN
Says Senator Gave Disprop0rtion. ate View of Conditions, but Con-
 ceded Mistakes Were Impossible
Associated Press Dispatch.

Washington, Jan. 28.-Five hun dred thousand U. s. troops were in France early this year and million and a half more are now ready to go, fully equipped, and with artillery to support them. This was the answer of Secretary Baker today to the charges of inefficiency and break down of the military establishment. He made the statements at public hearing before the senate military committee. This force will be com posed of men now with Pershing and lthirty-two divisions troops now in camps in the United States, and the next increments to be drawn. Artil- lery, if necessary, will come from the British and French governments which have an excess ordnance.

Washington, Jan. 28.- Secretary Baker replying to Senator Chambers z]ain's charges of inefficiency in the
 department and making verbal
 3fhent before the senate military
 inittee, declared the Chamberlain
 eech gave a disproportionate as-
 Ut and conGded freely that in so great an enta,Sik3ise it is impossible for there not to be delays and short comings, but brought much criticism, due to the inpatience of the Ameri- can people to do this great thing quickly without intent. He said in effect Chamberlain's speech was to give the impression that deficiencies were characteristic rather than oc- casional, referring to cases cf s&i' legged neglect. The secretary called attention to the fact that more than a million men in this country are under arms and said Major General Wood recommended calling out large ar iuy, dlJHOuSH HIGH WCIC IOt IO UC provided for at once with rifles and clothing. He said every soldier need- ing rifle has one. Defending the lack of Lewis guns he reiterated that Pershing does not want Lewis guns for ground forces but only for avia- tion.
 Baker asserted emphatically that deficiencies were disclosed promptly and remedied. He declared thirty two divisions of the national guard and national army troops and more than a million men and troops were considered ready to go over sea when- ever is decided to move them. He asserted France and Great Britain are supplying artillery for American forces because they had. an excess and wished to save ships for more vital necessities.
