Equality
And so this undeceiving deception
has gone on for fifty years until the
President of the United States,
throwing caution to the winds, has
either boldly or unwittingly an.
.nounced as national policy that
"men of both races may well stand
uncompromisingly against every sug-
gestion Of Social Equality"
Or in other words, that no man,
no matter how civilized, decent or
gifted he may be, shall he permitted
to associate with his fellow. men on
terms Of equality or want to asso-
ciate with them, if he be Negro or
of Negro descent.
Let us sweep away all quibbling.
Let us assume that the President was
sane and serious and could not and
did not mean by "social equality
anything so inconceivable as the right
Of a man to invite himself to an
other mans dinner table. No. Mr..
Harding meant that the American
Negro must acknowledge that it was
a wrong and disgrace for Booker
T. Washington to dine with Presi-
dent Roosevelt!
The answer to this inconceivably
dangerous and undemocratic demand
must come with the unanimous ring
Of IL million voices, enforced by the
voice of every American who believes
in humanity.
Let US henceforward frankly adj
NIT that which we hitherto have al
ways known: that no system of social
uplift which begins by denying the
manhood of man can end by giving
him free ballot, real education and
a just wage. ~ ~ -
Race Equality. .-s ..
Let us confess that the pseudo
science to which the President I'M
happily referred as authority, and
the guilty philanthropy which has
greedily levelled racial barriers and
now seeks with the blood stained
hands Of a Lugard to rearrange them
so that profit may emerge and man.

all this is vain, wrong and hypocrit-
zeal and that every honest soul today
who seeks peace, disarmament and

the Pan-African Congress: -.<
1.-The absolute equality of races
physical, political and social-is the
founding stone of world peace and
human advancement. No one denies
great differences of gift, capacity and
attainment among individuals. of all
races, but the voice of science, religion
and practical politics is one in deny
ing the God-appointed existence of
superior races, or of races naturally
and inevitably and eternally Inferior
To deny this fact is to throw open
the door of the world to future of
hatred, war and murder such as never
yet has taggered bowed and cruel
fled humanity. How can a man bring
himself to conceive that the majority
Of mankind Chinese, Japanese, In
dams and Negroes are going to stand
up and acknowledge to the world that
they are unfit to be men or to asso-
ciate with men, when they know they
are men?

Frank W. Griggs. golf chairman of
the Country club, has laid out five new
holes on the recently purchased adj
dition to the club property directly
south of the tennis courts. Griggs has
staked out the new fairways. The
grass has been cut making good turf.
Temporary green's will be ready for
play in q few days.
These new holes will be a part of
the 1Ss-hole course some day Griggs
has laid them out for the purpose of
relieving the congestion on the Couu-
try club course on Saturdays. Sundays
and holidays and also in the late after
moons when many golfers are out for
their daily airing.
The additional acreage also will give

can be enjoyed on any farm or in the
vacant lot of suburbs.
The course at Durham has nine
"holes," or targets These consist of
sacks stuffed with straw. placed on
poles, the bottom of the sack being
five or six inches above the ground.
The distances between the targets are
from 200 to 500 yards. The average
player can make a drive of 200 yards
easily. The game, as in golf, requires
that the circuit be made in the least
number of strokes" Some of the
targets of the present course are pos
sfb1e one-shot plays, as there are pos
sible one-holes in golf, tho the
probability that they will be achieved
in one shot is remote.
The arrow golf player requires little
equipment. Most of the players carry
one bow. two or three arrows in a
homemade CULVER. and a guard for
the left wrist necessary because the
string strikes down on the wrist with
great force. The player also wears a
glove on the hand with which he pulls
the bowstring, or at least three fingers
of a glove, to cover the finger tips
used.
Arrow golf has one great advantage
over ordinary golf besides the ease
with which a course may be arranged.
1t can be played in winter as well as
in summer and has been played here

lay intoethe ball. A few holes later he
watched the same youngsters dribble
their puts back and forth across the
green. Such is life" he expostulated
again. Vigorous youth prevails in
the sensations and the displays but
within the confines of the green's,
where patience and GOODNESS is neces-
sary, there comes the natural advan-
tage in age and experience"
Doctor Hobart, who has golfed for
years without a smile, despite the fact
that he won the city championship last
season, broke his enamel recently
when he brought in two rs on the
Country club course.
Here is tip that will not cost So
an hour from the pro. Jack Sleeper,
who has been gouging his way thru a
most disappointing season with his
wooden clubs, spent one whole after
noon the other day with the Nelson
left arm swing. He slapped out sew
eral 200-yard drives by completing his
drive with the club in the left hand
only. Try it.
Now that Country club players have
learned, mentally, that the little red
barn" is out of the way on No. 2, they
are making outdoor life dangerous
around the stone house across the
fence from the green.
If untrimmed hedges are against the
law Country club golfers respectfully
refer the proper authorities to the
haven of lost balls across the road
from No. fairway.
Motor parties in the habit of draw
ing up alongside No. 9 tee at Shawnee
are asked to overfook-or overhear-
some of the self condemnations that
disappointed golfers are so apt to
make in times of stress.
An important meeting of the d.
rectors of the Shawnee club will be
held Monday evening.
Country club fans are agitating a
move to reduce the penalty for out of
bounds shots from the tees. The Dud-

,loose.
The tourney was not noted for low
scores due to the fact that all of the
editors from over the state were ac-
customed to the sand greens. The
Country club grass greens bothered
them.
Good craftsmanship featured the
entire meet At no time could the
editors violate Rule S0-they could not
take their bungles seriously.
The spirit of the Topeka Country
club officers who made every effort
to care for the visitors was recognized
by the editors. Pro Nelson and As
sistant Pro Howard also Joined in the
glad hand movement and assisted the
tourney workers on every occasion.
The following resolution was adopted
by the association:
Topeka, Kan, May &c, 1921.

WHY GOLFERS ARE DIFFERENT.
He never made the major league when he
was playing ball,
He couldn't make his college team,
but didn't grieve at all;
When he was young and supple and had
strength to spend and spare,
He'd strike out with the bases full, but
didn't rave and swear:
And he didn't fling his bat away or sit
around and sob
Because he couldn't steal base or hit like
Tyrus Cobb.
When he was playing tennis, his was not
topaotch game,
His play was ordinary, but it pleased him
just the same,
He was happy and contented II he conquer
ed now and then
And never dreamed of ranking with the
leading tennis men;
He played the game for pleasure and he
didn't fuss or fret
Every time he missed in service or his ball
went in the net.
But today's he fat and forty and his
stomachs in the way
And he's listed with the golfers and he's
learning how to play;
There is age upon his shoulders, and there's
stiffness in his bones,
But he wants the pro to teach him how to
drive like Bobby Jones.
And Alex Ross can't tell him, when his
brow with sweat is damp,
In way that is convincing, that he'll
never be Champ"

ify him from entering amateur
matches.
"The fightingest player on the
course is the way Fred Alderman
described Ed Thrill of the Country
club the other day after fast and
furious 1S-hole foursome. "A bad
drive, bad brassie, a two out of a
sandpit-nothjng bothers him. You
must have him down badly and must
lie within a foot of the hole before
cup up. And it takes the last hole to
get him"
All of which proves the value of
nerve and patience in golf. A hole Is
never won until the ball drops out of
sight. A poor drive and a poor Sec
ond can be made up in one accurate
approach shot or in good long putt.

golfer, in walking thru the inter-club

First of all one must be relaxed as
much as possible. Let the club swing
in line with the play. Judging dis
lance is determined by the ground IN
front of the green. If the few yards
between the player and the green are
not in good condition the ball should
be pitched all the way to the green
the wetter the ground the greater the
pitch-lessen the pitch on dry ground.
If one is lying close to the ground
and cannot loft the ball, just roll it
up the best way possible. 1t is an all
wrist shot with a stiff wrist and arm
follow thru in an imaginary line to
the hole.
One is apt to think too much about
the shot before he hits the ball. This
causes the player to hit the ball too
quickly. 1 advise a prompt but un-
hurried decision as in other shots. The
eye should be almost glued on the ball.
This insures additional care in just
how the ball is struck. Take the
stance which is most comfortable. I
stand with my feet close together.
Remember the vital Importance of
the chip shot. A good shot to the
hole from off the green will make up
for one or two badly played shots out
on the fairway.
