All Sections

This tremendous growth in golf has
assailed all sections. 1t has been
big feature around New York and
Chicago, where most of the older clubs
have waiting lists that are league in
length.
California and Florida are sprouting
new courses every other day and many
of these are first class in every way.
In fact, most of the new courses being
built are first class. The growth has
carried on into the smaller cities.
George AIDE remarked the other day
that It is only question of year
or two until every small town in the
n ildie West hes it's golf course. public
or private. Nineteen hundred and
twenty has been no easy financial year,
so we have been informed by those
who should know better than we do
But, in spite of tight money, the

Beyond All Others

Undoubtedly there is more money
invested and spent in golf than there
is in al other sports put together,
including baseball. football, racing,
polo, tennis and the rest Of it.
The 100000 acres alone, ually in
a high priced district which the coun-
try c ub has helped to make va.uaD. =
run into fabulous figures, figures al
most beyond belief.
And against something like fifty or
rixty big baseball and football stands
or stadiums, there are over 1000 coun-
try ubs that cost lot of important
money.
1t also costs more to play golf than
it does baseball football or tennis.
Quite bit more, to rem ove any camou-
Aagc. And the tremendous growth of
this game in spite OF this cost has
been proof enough that its appeal is
nation wide and still on the up swing
And in spite of the cost il viii al
ways be on the up SWING, as it combines
a game and form Of com petition with
a striking appeal, and beyond this a
journey into the open p aces OF the
world just trihe apart from the

a Few Fivurcs

When Lido was built some years ago
well over $l,000,ooo was required to
build and develop the course, now one
OF the greatest in the world.
When Thomas G.. Plant had COM
pleted his golf project around the
B Id Peak Country Club, in New Hamp-
shire, the cost wasn't any less than
Sl,5Cs 900.
This is, of course, we'll beyond the
ordinary run. Other golf curses in
small towns have hccn completed for a
few thousand dollars, especially where
there is sandy soil to work on.
The new Pelham course. in Westches-
ter County, n. Y, has figured that
around 100000 will buy the ground

100000 is now needed to purchase the

Just at present there are at least
2000 golf courses within the strict
confines Of the United States of Amer
ice. At least that many, with others

To say what the average cost Of
these courses is---well, no one can saw

DENNY & Co. to Remain.

The transfer Of the above-mention-
ed property does not mean that Denny
& Co., the principal owners of the
Fruit Association, will retire from
the Emmett field. Instead, they will
remain and it is reported will become
a larger factor in the handling Of
fruits than before. While no definite
plans have yet been formulated, and
any announcement at this time would
be premature, it is understood that
another location will be secured and
modern buildings for packing and
storing fruit will be constructed there
on, and that Mr. Shaw will continue
an the employ of the Denny people.
Future announcement of definite plans
will be awaited with interest.

WANTS CARLOAD
HERE
Emmett Woman Thinks Wood Alcohol
Good for Local Soaks.

The following communication has
been received from a we'll known EN-
NETT woman. The views expressed are
unique and different" and-well, we
don't know but what she is right:
Mr.. Editor:-I do not see why they
want to stop the sale of wood alcohol.
| think that is one of the best sub
stitutes for whisky they have found
yet. Then, too, it does its work quick
ly. It's an ill wind that doesn't blow
anybody god. See how it helps the
doctors and the undertakers out! Then
too, sometimes the BARRIERS get in on
the deal, for they want to make the
old buns look as respectable as possi-
BILE. For my part would like to have
carload shipped to Emmett l would
invest in some myself and keep it SO
it would be handy. Why try to keep
people from doing things they are
bound to do. My experience with
people who drink is that the more
you try to keep them from it the
more they will drink.
This appetite" business is all bosh.
There are too many that carry the
same bfrthmark. Thirty-one years
with drunkard gives one
some pointers. There's where they
work the people. If these poor old
stiffs are SO badly henpecked at home,
why don't they go away-the world
is wide. No, they know there is not
any place where they can go and show
their meanness like they can at home;
no other woman they can abuse like
they can and do their wives and
families. If the people back East
would only send some of their "quick
relief to Emmett it might stop the
sale of peptoine, beef iron and wine
sale of patent medicine and other
things too numerous to mention.
Nevertheless, let the good work
20 on-send in your wood alcohol
stuff. / always like to see people get
what they are looking for.
MRS. STEINBOWER.
P. S.-My husband doesn't drink;
le belongs to the funnel gang.

VALUABLE AND PRICED
HEIRLOOM
VIM. Lyman POssessor of Bible
208 Years Old-In Family
154 Years.

Among the most cherished posses
sions at the William Lyman home on
the South Slope is that of the old fam
lily Bible which is 208 years old and
has been in the Lyman family for 154
years.
1t is large book bound in COW hide,
the edges of the cover sewed with
waxed string. With the exception Of
a few of the flyleaves, all the pages
are intact and in fine state of pres
ervation. The preface contains the re-
port of the committee to King James
Of England upon the completion OF
the revision Of the work. The title
page states that the book was printed
"By the printers to His Majesty, King
James, in the year of Our Lord 1712."
The pages are printed in large type
and with notations on the margin, re-
sembling very much the present-day
publications, with the exception that
the old style letter as" (resembling
the modern "f'') is used. There are
no illustrations in the book.
That this Bible had been used be-
fore it came into the Lyman family
is shown by notations on the fly
leaves Most of the flyleaves, which
probably contained complete record
of the births, marriages and deaths of
the Lyman family for many genera
tions, are missing, but one still in the
book contains the date 1873, following
the record of death; the name of the
deceased is unreadable.
Another notation is as follows:
"Johnathan Lyman's Bible, bought
1885," This is followed by the dates
of birth Of SIX children, then by rec
ords of marriages and deaths and the
notation of the book passing into the
hands of William Lyman in 1888.
Two other nyleaves are intact, giving
the history OF the Lyman family in
the early portion of the 18th century.
It is indeed valuable book, and
people viii pardon the pride that Mr..
Lyman has in his 200-year-old Bible.
