FIVE COUNTY TEAMS
 IN GOLF CONTEST
(Continued from page n

| (Contlnued from page 1 on the eighth hole, made by my class | mate, Charles Bigelow. Today most
 players have taken a five! There was
 the famous match when Dr. Knight
 was five down and six to go, to young Tom Hooker, and pulled it out of the | fire, only to lose to Tom on the 18th hole. There are the deer and does frequently seen on the course, which
 keep it near to natures heart; and
 who will ever forget the little fox
 that leaped out on the third and
 played impishly with Captain Spof-
 lords ball. It is a course full of
 romance, and occasionally even a
 match has been made here, that is
 usually credited to heaven.
 'I see before me the swinging
 shield of the Duke of Norfolk, adorn-
 ed with his coat of arms. But the genius loci of the links is not his grace, but one whose bounty exceeds the wealth of all the Towards, and whose personality is worth hundred coats of arms. Without her fore thought and largesse these downs would not be, and in token of our fealty and gratitude to her ladyship, l suggest that we raise all hands up, hands with the heart in 1t. (Enthu- siastically done.)
 "Ths tournament has been a glor. ious success, thanks to a painstaking committee, headed by Dr. Tanner, who have spared no effort to enter tain us. They have even furnished caddies to the competing team. and a bountiful lunch, where it was ob- served that everything putted upon the table found it's way into the hole. It is a pleasure to us all to see Cap 1 tain Spoford on the course, whose | courtesy and skill nave so long adorned it. The labor and equity of | the handicap committee are beyond | praise, for their problem is one from which Gabriel himself would shrink. The successes have gone to the right | ones in all fairness, particularly the Eldridge cup, which has been taken out of that safety deposit vault, the jail, and will now glisten in the sunshine of Norfolk. And as one of the opposing team, I can heartily say, Iris better to have played and lost, than never to have played at all.'
 "And so let us go to the 18th hole. May all your drives be far and sure. May all your puts go down."

WARRIORS ALL.
Boissevsne, Va. Aug. T

Boissevane, Va. Aug. 7.
To the C. V. News:
Sixty five or seventy years ago
you heard everywhere that people
were too nice and clean and good,
ever again to engage in the business
of cutting each others throats.
Soon after l found myself at
Harper's Ferry with Stonewall Jack
son, a gun in my hand, ready to kill
people. The same gush was heard
while Noah preached to the fellows
who were drowned spoke of others
in the same way. While the war was
in progress we all thought that at
it's close, we should have peace. But
there is no peace. Russia is crazy as
a mad bull. The Mohammedans are
prepared to shed the last drop of
their blood over constantinople.
Everyone wants the earth, and,
considering our opportunities, we
are craziest Of all. Surely we shall
have peace; but, will come at the end
of a long eliminating process. The
tail has to be dropped, all the brindl-
ed and spike-horned must go 20 the
block. Only the fit can hope to sur
vive.
st. John, the Divine, when on the
isle of Patmos writing the history
of the church, saw all the tears and
misery and agony that could come to
the human race. And were it not for
another vision of his ! should des-
pair, and be the greatest of all pes
simists. In the vision to which | re-
fer, he saw the history of the church
from the beginning to the end. II
commenced with seven little churches
in Asia-not much to brag of in
somc-and ended with a great mul-
tltude that no man could number
clothed with white robes, with palms
in their hands, who stood before the
Throne and the Lamb and sang the
great song of redemption. Then ono
asked, Who are these, and whence
came t:ey? And was answered.
these are they who have come out OF
great tribulation, and have washed
their robes and made them white in
the bpod of the Lamb.

THREE BILLIONS OF CASH
UNBANKED.
(Richmond Evening Journal.)

(Richmond Evening Journal.)
We have it on the authority of
William H. Hutt, acting governor of
the Philadelphia federal reserve bank,
that just about half the total cur
rency of the United States is being
carried around in the pockets or the
stockings of the people, or has been
hidden under the old hair mattresses,
or locked up in strong boxes, accord
ing to the disposition, sex and cir
cumstances of the possessors. The
whole of this sum, which approx
mates $3,00,000,000, would, Mr.. Hutt
says, pay off one-tenth of the national
debt, while small fraction of it in
vested in liberty bonds or war saw
ings stamps would speedily bring
those securities up to par, and would
immeasurably strengthen the interna-
tional credit of the country. Even de-
posted in savings banks, the money
would effect an immense indication
of a mysterious desire on the part
of the people for great quantities of
cash on hand. In July, Mr.. Hutt de-
clares, member banks of the Phil
adelphla reserve bank, reduced their
outstanding obligations from s197,-
100000 to S1s1, 900, 900, but none of
the federal reserve notes was recall
ed from circulation. Instead, they
were increased S2,0OO,O0O, and figures
show that bank deposits are not at
an on the increase. One result of
this craze for ready money is al
ready strongly apparent in our dai]y
me, at least, so say the police. This
IS, the steady increase of burgalaries
highway robberies and pocket pick
lngs in the land. Indeed, all Illegal
methods Of transferring money from
one individuals purse to another's
are IN a more flourishing condition
than ever before in modern times
ical nough. '"s
