The fifty or more out of town golf
ers who were in Topeka this week at
tending the Country clubs invitation
tournament unite in declaring To-
peka a most gracious golf host and in
attaching to the success of the meet
all credit and glory to DR.. w. n.
Vest. president Of the local club.
From the time the women opened
their matches Monday morning until
the pros and amateurs closed their
thirty-six holes in the open tourna-
ment this evening. Doctor West has
been on the job. He was the first at
the Country club in the morning and
the last to leave in the evening. So
liciting the wants Of the visitors. keep
Ing the matches well filled. always on
the lookout for entertainment and ac-
commodations, Doctor West deserves
the cup for the finals in the seven-day
consolation handicap.

a great effort to find a few regular
hours of solitary practice during the
week.
1t is my theory that the problem
before each golfer is how to adapt his
individuality to the game. In working
this out he will necessarily make many
mistakes, and it is best to meet and
conquer them alone.
The onlooker is likely to Judge one
too leniently. or too severely. The
hard CONSCIENTIOUS worker needs
tempered judgment. 1t must not be
severe enough to discourage, nor leni-
ent enough to overlook serious faults.
1t is easy to crush a beginner by criti-
cism, it is equally easy to smother out
any good game by undue flattery.
For these many reasons I advise
after acquiring the fundamentals from
professional to work out a system
OF solitary practice and follow it re-
ligiously.
The way of the solitary learner is
paved with difficulties and it is we'll
TO recognize them in the beginning
and not be discouraged thereby.
The chances are that when our new
golfer first goes out near the club
house with his golf equipment, sorts
his balls and makes a couple of shots
Sam Smith will saunter along, criticize
the work and talk a bit about the
practice; when he leaves Jack Robin
son comes and asks to be allowed to
try his hand hitting a ball, or two, or
being near the club house the unhap-
Ply golfer is called to the inevitable
telephone. If on the other hand he
chooses a spot farther from the club
house he may be disturbed by work
teams. and altogether it may be seen
that the man who goes forth to get
an hour. or so. of systematic practice
VIII find many a precious minute
ruthlessly sacrificed
Here is where a mans tenacity of
purpose is tested, and If he is lacking
in perseverance he will give up all
idea of practice and confine himself
to the pleasant little friendly games
that add so much to the pleasure of
living but do not unfortunately adj
vance our skill. If you stick to your
plan, however, you can learn to ad-
just yourself to almost anything and
some time or other in the course of
the week will be made or found COM
paratively free from interruptions.
