MAKE PILGRIMAGES
 TO 'LINCOLN'S CITY
(Ry United Pressl

Springfield, H., Feb 12.-As Abra- ham Lincoln's birthday rolls round again, it becomes increasingly appar- ent that the capital city of Illinois is one of the worlds secular shrines, and visit to Springfield is more and more of a pilgrimage. The time was when the visitor to "Lincolns city, was satisfied with a mornings stay; a nasty glimpse of the residence and of the tomb at Oak Ridge.
 John Drinkwater, young English poet, had shaken London with his play of Lincoln. But he came to Spring field before "Abraham Lincoln was staged on Broadway, before the actors were chosen or anything in regard to this play was definitely determined for the United States. It was an act of pilgrimage indeed. Drinkwater visited every old resident known who hhad words to say of Lincoln $ times. He visited the Civil War flag room in the state house. Drinkwater took days enough to visit and inquire in iIegard to all the minor sites, the To- cations of Lincoln's old law offices and the station where Lincoln told the citizens of the city goodbye and where his famous farewell address is now set up in bronze.
 Another pilgrim from England was the author of the first British bio graph of Lincoln, lord Charnwood His coming was in wartime, so not singled out among the confused wal events. Nevertheless it was with the conviction of pilgrim that he camc to Lincoln's city and took part in the exercises of the Lincoln Centennial.

pionship at the Hollywood Golf club.
II Is the first time in several years
that a British champion has challeng-
ed for the American title.
The thirty-two women who return
the lowest medal scores for eighteen
holes today will win the right to play
for the title. Few contestants are con-
sidered to have q chance to stop Miss
Leitch from winning the coveted title.
The foremost American starters
were Miss Alex Stirling Of Atlanta, the
present champion; Miss Marion, Hol-
Inns, OF New York, and Miss Glenna
Collett, OF Providence.
Because Of their exceedingly long
game, Miss Collett and Miss Hollins
are the only players thought capable
OF holding Miss Leitch on this long
Hollywood course. Miss Stirling has
been defeated twice this year by Miss
Leitch and is not playing as we'll a.

the field OF American women golfers.
