GOLF PLAYED EVEN AT SEA
Outline Of Some of Rules That Are
Observed Aboard Ship-Ball
Overheard Is Lost

Golf has the distinction of being
played the wide world over and the
ubiquitous devotee can indulge no mat
ter in what corner of the earth he
finds himself. Now comes a story of a
game played on the high seas, on
ship in the British navy. The rules
Of st. Andrews are adopted subject
only to such local rules as the commit
tee may consider necessary to meet
the requirements of the case. 1t is
from the local rules that one can gath
er what sort of a game golf is at sea.
Here are few:
mo person shall be allowed to play

has paid for the same.

OUTLOOK Is BRIGHT
FOR THOROUGHBREDS
Make Good in Time of War and
Thrive in Days of Peace.
Lovers of Horses May Well congratu-
late One Another on Great Things
in Store-Advance in Value
so Per Cent.

With the victory and peace following
especially of the thoroughbred, may
we'll congratulate one another on the
great things in store for the American
thoroughbred, says New York Tele-
graph. In the war the horse played no
small part, for it was cavalry raids
that routed the Turks, as well as to
drive back the Huns on the western
front. This country has been de-
pleted Of horses fit for cavalry re-
mounts, and the United States govern
ment has recognized the need Of the
Improvement of the breed of horses by
acquiring thoroughbred stations of the
very highest type and placing them
upon government breeding farms. In
the years to come the United States
will have higher type Of horse for
every purpose.
Especially are the owners of race
horses to be congratulated, for today
their racers have advanced in value
probably so per cent more over what
they may have been considered worth
a week before the end Of the conflict.
The reason for this S that the million
aire owners, who were in the sport for
the sport to be had ont of it rather
than for profit, will now be encour-
aged to purchase most literally of the
best to be had. Recently one Canadian
millionaire paid $4,000 for three
horses. The American sold because
| he expected to have his time taken
| up with helping the government.
Three days after he had sold he wired
| his trainer to sell no more as he would
continue racing, and that trainer re-
marked that he would gladly give
100000 to get back the three thorough
breds he had sold for $4,000.
1t now is assured that racing will
be resumed in Canada next season
for the sport was Only discontinued
for the duration of the war, and may
open automatically, without any legis
latiOn whatsoever. Across the Mexican
border are two racetrackS which were
closed down on account of passpor
troubles. These both will be open il
another year, and because there will
be great opportunity for thoroughbred
to earn rich purses and stakes thei
value must of necessity be advance
with their ability to show their rea
worth in racing.

Never was such furry winter! No

dian border she insists upon furs of
some sort and wears them regardless
of the thermometer. One might think
we were finally looking to the Esquf-
maux for style inspirations, but coal
less Paris probably set the pace in
furs. When even the meager allow
ance of coal that French women
make out with was denied them, they
enveloped themselves in furs of all
sorts.
Real utility furs for cold climates
make a story by themselves. There
are short and long coats and coates
of all sorts of skins from undyed
muskrat up to fine mink and sable.
All the short-haired furs are reQui-
sitioned for these most comfortable
garments. But the most universally
popular furs are in smaller pieces,

REVIVAL OF CANADA SPORTS
Ice Hockey, Baseball and Other Ath-
Ietic Events Promise to Be
Better Than Ever.

Revival in sports such as Canada
has never witnessed is promised dur
ing the ensuing year.
Ice hockey, the great national win
ter sport, is off with a rush. Clubs
that have been dormant since the out
break of the war are reOrganized.
Stars who have been at the front can't
wait to get out Of khaki before get
ting on skates. And at every match
the attendance is already double that
of war days. The outstanding change,
though, is the new atmosphere. The
tension and anxiety is gone, the sense
of repression which made every sport
ing event crowd in war days solemn
and even mournful has vanished. The
real holiday spirit has returned.
There is scarcely a village in the
country that will not have it's hockey
team this year; and in the cities they
are forming by the scores. There will
be more hockey this winter than ever
before.
Already baseball plans for next sum.
mer are under way. Canada hopes fol
the first time to be represented in one
Of the big leagues.
Varsity sports will scarcely get I'M
der way until the autumn of 1919. Fol
five seasons the university athletic
fields have been deserted, as the rec
ord of Canadian universities in thu
war was sweeping one.

"There's Your Grandfather Now
Said Lucy.

Gle seemed a real Brummell to me-"
she said.
ooh, he keeps up about what he
wears, well enough, but Another
thing I don't think he ought to allow:
good many people bought big lots
and they built houses on 'em; then
the price of the land kept getting
higher, and they'd sell part of their
yards and let the people that bought
it build on it to live in, till they
haven't hardly any of 'em got big, open
yards any more, and it's getting all
built up. The way it used to be it was
a gentleman's country estate, and
that's the way my grandfather ought
to keep it. He lets these people take
too many liberties: they do anything
they want to-"
''But how could he stop them?"
Lucy asked, surely with reason. IF
he sold them the land it's theirs, isn't
it?"
George remained serene in the face
of this apparently difficult question.
HE ought to have all the tradespeople
boycott the families that sell part of
their yards that way. All he'd have to
do would be to tell the tradespeople
they wouldn't get any more orders
from the family if they didn't do it,
"From the family? What family?"
"Our family" said George, upper

ly she did see something that he did
not, for as she lifted her muff to her
face lie asked:

Half an hour later George was pass

ning's gayeties, when he encountered
his Aunt Fanny. He stopped her.
Look here!" he said.
What in the world is the matter
with you?' she demanded, regarding
him with little amiability. "You look

George was so astounded by this
outburst that his indignation was de-

upsets you this way?" he inquired.

Beyond a doubt that was what Miss

hot look. you attend to your own

swept away.
George, dumfounded, returned to
his room for meditation.
He had lived for years in the same
house with his Aunt Fanny, and it
now appeared that during all those
years he had been thus intimately as
sociating with a total stranger. Never
before had he met the passionate
