surely he might find the original of the picture that has
intrigued him through the friendly intervention of the

His choice suggests something more than the merely
personal question involved in it, Magazine art has
had remarkable development in a single directonthe

quite permissible. II might suit Cromwell to be painted

be more fastidous Perhaps this is the why the

In fact, the magazine girl is becoming easily

BACKING UP THE GOOD MEN

Some of the policies fostered by Secretary Lane
confirmed by congress One of the greatest his farms
for soldiers plan, is still awaiting action Mr. Lane says
"There much larger thought behind this plan than
the furnishing of farms heroes, the stability of
nation measured very materially by the number OF those
who have interest in its lands.
The life of great city feversh and wars with that
serenity Of spirit in which calm judgments come at
Some judgments vitality necessary to the OF
democracy"
It would be a fitting recognition of the service which
Mr. Lane has rendered his country if the people at large
inform themselves fully concerning this
plan and how rewards the services of the soldier

The duffer isn't the only one who is
batfied or hoodooed by certain holes
upon a course.
A review of the recent open cham
pionship proves that even the greatest
golfers in the game can come upon
their hoodoo holes ard find trouble in
beating down the superstition that
arises.
The sixth hole at Inverness is only
drive and a mashie-niblick pitch 1t
isn't one of the hard holes. Yet, in
the six times lie played it, Ted Ray
secured but one A. 1t cost him on
all other occasions. On this same hole
John G. Anderson took four successive
playing sound golf at other points and
finally broke his hoodoo by sinking
forty-foot putt.
here, yet at the next hole, almost as
long, he secured four successive IS.
In.the championship proper, the sixth
hole, 1856 yards in length, cost him
nineteen strokes while the seventh
hole, 800 yards in length, cost him but
twelve strokes.
Vardon's Hoodoo Hole
Vardon's hoodoo hole was the eighth
202 yards in length, an easy hole for
many.
Yet the British veteran had a vain
struggle here to get his 3. In fact he
secured but one 3 out OF six attempts
On his last round he had played every
hole in par or better until he reached
the eighth. 1t was easy to see that
he was quite undecided what club to
use when he reached the tee. He

certain distance can battle a golfer of
Vardon's skill With a 208-yard shot
to play on any other green he would
have had no trouble. 1t was merely
the knowledge that the hole in ques-
ton had him worried, that he had
played it badly, which kept him CON
sistently over par.

Unusual Batting Feats

ting feats within an interval of one
week. Against Chattanooga Francis
Griffin, the Memphis center fielder, Sc
cured q hit in the first, Second and
third innings and scored run in each

Johnny Frierson. the left fielder of
the same club. duplicated this feat
week later. There was strange
similarity in the batting of Frierson
and Griffin Each singled in his first
two times up and each secured nome
runs in third time at bat. Each sin
gled in the fifth inning, making it
four straight hits, but Griffin beat his
running mate by getting his fifth
straight while Frlerson grounded out.

Jock Hutchinson year ago at Brae
Burn.
Hutchsor., AZ the finish, was only
four strokes back Of Hagen and Brady.
The sixth hole there is only an easy
mashie shot, something like $50 wards
with downhill pitch to the green.
On this hole Jock took four con-
secutive 5s, and Vet the shot was his
favorite effort. This hole cost him
twenty strokes against q par of twelve
for the four rounds. He, therefore,
lost eight strokes right here. If he
had played this one hole in par each
time, he would have won the cham
rlonsNip by no less than four strokes.
Two IS and two 5s would have given
him tie. Two IS, 4 and q 5 would
have brought him in a winner. But
he couldn't get within stroke of par

his deadly mashie-niblick, a club he
always plays with telling effect The
wonder is at this hole that he didn't
get at least pair of 2s On q hole

the same length, he got three IS

in place of playing safe for his 4 he
elected to chip boldly to the pin and

His chip shot ran up the slope, failed
to hold, and, finally, trickled into a
