PARIS, June 16.-The real Treaty

mans in Versailles this evening, diff
fers materially from the conditions
OF peace" which the enemy received
May Z.
Several important changes have
been made since the Germans submit

the principles of the original treaty re
main the same. The view of those in
timately concerned in making the al
terations is that the greatest change
lies in the new tone manifest in the
30, 900 word document explaining the
changes and replying to Count Brock
dorff-Rantzau's objections. The tone
is said to be moderate and eXplana-
tory throughout, and the document is
intended to show that the allies desire
only to do justice and avoid inflicting
unnecessary hardships On their late

4 Correction of Bad Puttine

If YOU Will notice most of the poor or
erratic players that one comes across
you will find this feature to their style
as a rule they grip the putter well
below the top, near the bottom of the
leather. and three times out of four
jab at the ball.
Gripping the handle of the putter
well down has tendency to make one
jab.
Then if you Will notice the best put
ters in the game - Ouimet. Travers,
Heron. Mcnamara, etc.-you VIII OBJ
serve that with few exceptions they
stand fairly erect over the ball and
grip the puttcr by the top Of the
leather. Holding the club in this way
makes 1t difficult 10 jab at the bah and
helps to produce the follow through
needed
If you are putting badly and grip the
club on the lower side of the leather
it may prove profitable to inaugurate a
change and to try the other system
that of standing fairly erect and hold
ing the putter at the top OF the grip.
This change, with some practice. Will
almost surely produce pleasant results
and a big Improvement.
