From the Kansas City Star:


Arthur Carruth of the Topeka Jour
nal, Roy Bailey of the Salina Journal
and two or three other admirably sun
burned Kansas editors have their
heada together discussing the plausi-
bility Of a Kansas Editorial Golf
tournament to be held at some con-
veuient point, preferably Kansas city
some fine day along in October, after
the vacation season is over and it is
possible to get a quorum. That golf
is taking a firm hold on Kansas edi-
tors is undeniable; judging from the
number who are neglecting their para
graphing. the advance the game is
making must he enorn Gus. And nat
urally a curiosity Is arising as to who
is who in the golf business Prob
ably some rules will be made, and
some handicaps openly arrived, at.
! Editors who swing an ambitious stick
and are interested in forming an alb
sorbing and educational tournament
should write to Mr.. isaiIey or Mr.. Car
ruth at their earliest convenience, and
they will be advised of the plan as
rapidly as it is worked out.
Lawrence newspapers are complain
ing because the women golfers are
holding up the game with gossip and
pink teas. Again we suggest: Make
golf a men only affair and with ages
sensational shooting youngsters and
will maintain our supremacy over our
wives.
Or, rather than exclude the women
in so many words, just make golf a
game for persons between so and 100.
The rain this week frightened up
many OF the cracks in the Topeka
courses. frightened UP the fairway,
nd
altogether new grip on the game.

Among the professionals who will
play in the open tournament at the
Country club a week from Saturday
will be Ray Ouimet, brother of the
famous Francis, who is the pro al
Hill Crest club, Kansas City. Attic
he has/ never won the renown OF
Francis, Ray Ouimet is some player
and it will be worth while to make
it a point to be IN the gallery that will
| follow him around. About six Kansas
| City professionals are expected tc
come for the open play, amoung then
Jim Watson and Joe Matthews, well
known here.
Professionals from Omaha, st. Jo-
seph, Des Moines and other cities have
been invited to the Country club oper

expected. However. regardless of tht

Arthur Bonebrake will make then

first prize. "Boney' played over this
| Country club course the other day
with Frank Griggs and made II

record will have to be established t
beat him. "Boney'' will have a great
advantage against visitors because hi

4 RECORD MATCH.

The most remarkable foursome ever
played in Topeka. and probably one of
the most remarkable in the west. was
staged at the Country club with Pat"
Campbell and Irwin Nelson playing I.
w, Felix and Arthur Bonebrake. At
the end of the first eighteen notes.-the
score was a tie; at the end of thirty
six holes the tie was unbroken and II
took forty-five holes to decide the
winners, Felix and Bonebrake carry
ing off the honors 1 UP.
Not only were the results remark
able, but the playing Of each individ-
ual round was most extraordinary. In
the five rounds only one score was
above forty. On one of the rounds
Felix missed a 15-inch putt for a 80.
which would have tied the course rec
ord held by Harlow Hurley, and on
another round Nelson and Bonebrake
came in with 35s and Campbell with a
SO. At no time during the five rounds
were the opponents more than two
holes apart.

The rains this week have put the
Shawnee and Country club courses in
the finest condition of the summer
season. The huge cracks in the fair
ways have been closed and filled, the
grass is green, the green's have been
enlivened by the moisture from the
skies and conditions are ideal for the
big tournament that begins Monday.
On the Shawnee course the oiled sand
greens were washed out badly but
Keeper Flanders has been able to re-
pair them for almost immediate ac-
curate putting. The Shawnee grass
green's. abandoned during the drouth,
are showing life again, and may be
brought back into use shortly.

The Governors Letter.

The governors letter of greeting
which very apparently did not in one
instance at least reach it's objective,
was as follows:
ITO tho North Dakota soldiers:
1T is q pleasure to send message
of greeting to the boys of our state
in Uncle Sans army. The fighting is
done, and you are naturally eager to
get back home, which feeling is shar'
ed by your loved ones here, as evl
denced by the many anxious inquiries
that come to my attention. We will
hope that the day is not far distant
when all of your will once more be
breathing the pure, free air of the
United States. -.
IN the meantime, be assured that
we are taking steps to safeguard and
advance your interests. It Is the aim
of the North Dakota legislature, now
in session, to do something of real and
lasting benefit for the boys who have
so nobly defended humanity's cause.
Under the provisions of bill now
under consideration and which will
undoubtedly pass, every soldier will
receive from the state $25 month
for the time he has spent in the serv-
ice-this sum to be used as the initial
payment on a home under the easy

CO. A BOY WAS
HELD PRISONER
IN GERMAN CAMP
Member of Bismarck Unit, Home
From Overseas, Tells of Prus-
sian Frightfulness

Napoleon, N. D., May 19.-Some
first hand information of tie uldigni-
ties suffered by allied prison ,r, in Ger.
man prison camps has been brought
home to Logan county folk by Frank
J. Last, former Napoleon photograph
er and school teacher, who went over
seas with Co. A, the Bismarck unit of
the Fighting First, and who was cap
tured at Soissons, while serving as a
dispatch runner, after he had been
rendered helpless by shrapnel
wound Last, with 21 other Amer-
can prisoners, was sent to the Ger
man prison camp at Merseberg, where
10000 allied soldiers were interned.
That was in July, 1918, and
from that date until after the
armistice was signed, November
II, when Red Cross packages
were permitted to come through,
the prisoners were forced to SUBJ
sist on the lthiest Of fond. Con-
vinced that seeing is believing,
Private Last managed to smug-
ale home with him loaf Of the
bread of which they were allowed
$50 CRANES DAY. 1t is composed
Of sawdust, mangIe, potatoes and
rye flour. For change the pris-
oners were given soup made Of
grass.
Private Last saw prisoners beaten
to death before their comrades: he
saw men jabbed with bayonets and
dubbed with gun butts on the slight
est provocation. '"rhe Germans as
rule inflicted more savage treatment
upon men who were of German
descent or German speaking than
upon the Others" says Private Last.
AS the Logan county soldier speaks
the German patois current in this vi
cinity, he was at first subjected to
many hardships and petty tortures.
The prisoners we're released from
Merseberg on December 2S.
