THE LITTLE ROADS

We say, the little roads that run
From every homeland door,
So happy through the dew and sun,
So gaily where the valleys are,
Will never lead our feet so far
We can return no more.
We follow on, the hill crests fade,
And dusk soon ends the day;
We find the little roads have strayed
Through tangled years, and never more
They turn to greet homeland door
And we forget the way.

MY WORK-MY BLESSING

Let me but do my work from day to day,
In field or forest, at the desk or loom,
In roaring market-place or tranquil room,
Let me but find it in my heart to say
When vagrant wishes beckon me astray,
"This is my work; my blessing not my
doom;
Of all who live, l am the one by whom
This work can best be done in the right
way"
Then shall 1 see it in not too great, nor
small;
To suit my spirit and to prove my powers;
Then shall l cheerful greet the laboring
hours,
And cheerful turn, when the long shad-
ows fall
At eventide, to play and love and rest
Because l know for me my work is best.

"LET'S KEEP SMILING"

Come on fellows let's keep smiling
What's the use of mopping round,
Sure we've got to keep on trying
Looking up instead of down.
Let US with smile each morning
Try and greet our fellow men;
Troubles may to us come pouring
Let's keep smiling just the same.
Don't go round with long drawn faces,
Or a sneer where smiles should be
Let's wipe off those ugly traces
And with smiles our faces wreathe.
We will never make no headway
If we walk with faces drawn,
Let US smile and square our shoulders
Though each of us, someone wrongs.
Smile and all the world smiles with you
IT'S saying of the best;
Let us smile and show no let up
Smile, for smiles bring US success.

THE BETTER WAY

20 what of the outer drear
AS long as there's inner light;
As long as the sun of cheer
Shines ardently bright.
AS long as the souls a-wing,
AS long as the heart is true,
What pow'r hath trouble to bring
A sorrow to you?
No bar can engage the soul,
Nor capture the spirit free,
As long as old earth shall roll
Or hours shall be.
Our world is the world within,
Our life is the thought we take,
And never an outer sin
Can mar it or break.
Brood not on the rich mans land,
Sigh not for the miser's gold,
Holding in reach. of your hand
The treasures untold.
That lie in the mines of heart,
That rest in the soul alone,
Bid worry and care depart;
Come unto your own!

a chance. This is the Whip-po-w will jr.,
raced by President Judson of the

Using new lineup, the hoorwork of
the Green five was good, but they were
unable to penetrate the defense of the
winners, who kept dropping the ball
through the cage from the center of the
floor. Tracey made his initial appear

Solons Adopt Mahan's
Foot-Fault Amendment
After Tilden Argument
By Fred Hawthorne

When all is said and done the con-
viction must be almost universal that
the recent annual meeting of the
United States Lawn Tennis Association
at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel was the
medium for accomp plishing a vast
amount of constructive legislation for
the benefit Of the game
Certainly, the revision of the rules
and cases, with the cutting down of
much superhuous wording, was a step
in the right direction. The rules rev-
sion committee has simplihed the mat
ter tremendously, and for that there
is cause for thanks.
The three points on which there was
a strong division Of sentiment among
the egates-namely, the proposed
amendments to the foot-fault, the scor-
ing and handicapping rules-were ad-
justed to the satisfaction of the ma
jority, with compromise decisions being
arrived at in each case.
In these three points the rules revi-
sion committee was virtually defeated
in its pet projects. 1t required sever
al minutes of acrid debate before the
i
Evans Mahan's amendment was ac-
cepted. This amendment, though brief,
is, | believe, wise one, and materially
alters the rule as the revision commit
tee had framed it.
Hop Dangerous Thing"
Mahan insisted that the rule be made
to read that 'at least one foot shall
remain continuously on the ground" +"
because otherwise there was nothing
to prevent player from hopping just
before his racquet struck the ball.
Beals Wright believed the rule would
be satisfactory without Mahans amend
ment tackled On, but William T. Til
den I'd declared that "a little hop is a
dangerous thing when it came to sery-
ing, and said lie had tried it out and
that it added about 80 per cent to his
usual speed.
That seemed to be sufficient argument
to the doubters among the delega tes,
for they bethought themselves Of Til
don's cannon ball" service, and de
cided that anything faster than that
must be positively illegal.
The best the revision committee e
could accomplish in the way of having
its new scoring rules adopted by the
national association was an agreement
whereby the new system could be used
at the option of tournament commit
tees, but only in handicap Journeys
Thus, "love" reigns supreme, as it
should, forsooth
The result of the bidding for the
various national championship tourna-
ments confirmed the statement made in
this column several days before the
meeting - namely, that Philadelphia
would not make a strong plea for the
holding of the mems national turf cour,
championship tourney for 1920.
Fail to Put Up Fight
Various rumors and reports were
printed previous to the gathering OF
the delegates to the effect that the
Germantown Cricket Club, of Phila.
delphia, or the Merton Cricket Club
would come to the meeting armed with
a sufficient number of votes and prox.
les to carry off the prize. Nothing O,
the kind happened. The West Side
Tennis Club was the only bidder, anc
the award was made unanimously.
In 1921, however, things will be diff.
ferent. for Philadelphia will then &c

Considerable Institution

AS a collector Of over $1,000 900 q
year, the caddie is becoming consid-
erable institution. He is that, anyway.
There must be around 100000 or more
caddies now and any turn of existence
that affects over 250,OoO youngsters
between twelve and seventeen is worth
looking at and thinking about. Most
of these will be golf players later on
(some already are), and many of them
are going to get their idea of sports
manship from the men they caddie
for.
And the caddie game is going to
grow each year. 1t will be a 10000
900 annual business before very long,
for golf is now under big hcadway
and is adding new entries week by
week. New golf courses are being
built between California and New Jer-
sey, betwaen Michigan and Texas, in
a surprisingly rapid fashion. Golf archi
tects are being deluged with more
work than they can handle in a life
time.
And this means that many more
youngsters each year building up the
corporation.
