HAS USE FOR PLANT
Hancock Says City Crematory Serves
Good Purpose.

There is a reason, says Commission
er Hancock, for the continuation of
the operation of the crematory. I'm
der the present ordinances Hancock
could legally cease to operate the plant
and shut it down.
However, there is a demand for a
place where trash can be hauled and
burned, he says. If it were not for
the incinerator, trash would be
dumped at any available place on the
outskirts of the city and then COM
plants would be many and numerous.
There would also be numerous in
stances of fires built to burn up the
trash and then the fire companies
would be busy putting out fires all
over the city. There is a large amount
of trash burned each week at the plant
that would otherwise blow about the
city or be dumped on the first place
found.

to make a good golfer, as 1t results
in poorly executed shots.
instruction by a professional or by
some skillful player who is really able
to give instruction is important to
progress in the game. Professional
teachers always tell me that women
accept instruction at the start very
readily, but after having mastered the
first principles have a feeling that
they can go it alone" and they re-
fuse to recognize the difficulties
which at once develop. Many ladies
persist in this attitude with the re-
suit that their progress is arrested
early in their golfing careers and they
seldom better their play after that.
OF course. large part of their en-
joyment IN golf comes from doing 1t
well and a player of either sex be-
comes discouraged and is likely to
drop the game under these circum-
stances.
To restate the big principles women
players should bear In mind let me
say follow the same principles in
practice that is given for men players.
Guard against the mistake of using
clubs that are too light under the i'm
preston that you have to handle light
clubs. Use clubs tina are adapted to
you, individually. Practice for a
three-quarter swing rather than a
half-swing and in all other respects
the same golfing principles described
in my articles for men are applicable
to women. Even after you are an ac-
complished golfer an occasional les
son will refresh your mind on little
points you may have forgotten and
probably be productive of new ideas
and hints that will better your game.
And finally do not underestimate the
value of professional instruction"
