More Truth
Than Poetry
By JAMES J. MONTAGUE

THE GOLFERS DIRGE.
The nineteenth hole allures no
more;
Departed are the happy hours
When having made a cracking
score
We rested UPON lemon sours.
What profit to go round in par
And make some holes in three or
under.
When none are waiting in the bar
To view our card with awe and
wonder?
To chortle at a lucky shot.
With thrills of happiness TO flutter,
When you discover you have got
At last the hang of that new put
ter,
To make drive straight down the
line
And shout in self congratulation.
All these things tend 10 undermine
The moral fibre of the nation.
Wen bid farewell to jocund mirth
All life will be but bleak and hol-
low
Delight will perish from the earth
For booze has gone-and gold will
follow.
With pleasure lying cold and dead,
With not a smile our woe to leav-
en-,
No hope at all we see ahead,
Unless perchance they golf in
Heaven.

long brought riches to France. The

summer income. And now, short of

mountains for aid. America develop
