the attention Of the County Board

TREK AROUND
 GOLF COURSE
 WITH HARDING

(By International News Service)
 WASHINGTON, Aug. 2i. Warren Gameliel Harding is the nations greatest gold attraction.
 Chick" Evans. Jock" Hutchison and Bobby" Jones notwithstanding, Warren G. Harding has bigger gal iery each time that he plays golf than any other golfer in the United States.
 If the president saw fit to charge two bits" per for each person in his gallery every time he weilds a bras sic" he would net a neat little cum that might run a close second to the salary check that the treasury de- partment sends him twice month
 All Washington likes to watch the president golf, and to date most of Washington has seen him at the game. No one has heard him, which speaks well for his temper.
 The president plays most frequent v on the nine-hole course in East Potomac Park. which is maintained by the government for the public of Washington. Whenever he appears at the first tee he is immediately sur rounded by a half-hundred golfers and all of the way doun the course has an increasing gallery" Most of the golfers let the president Ego through" while they stand on the edge of the fairway and watch him and it dosen't seem to freaze him a bit
 Warren c. Hardng's collective golf cards may not look well enough to be framed. but he is rare golfer, for he never displays extreme joy or chargin over his game Like most of the gar den variety of golfers. he spends a good bit of his time in the bunkers and raises much dust, but unlike most golfers. he dosen't raise "Cain" with the dust He just shoots away until he is out of the hazard and back on the fairway. and never a word or even an ugly look.

 Turning toward the next tee, the president stopped in the midst of his gallery" and asked a youth for a match.

 That was but a fair xample Of the presidential control at golf The chief executive dosent always hit them where he would like them to go, but he has perfect control of his tenn per and tongue. and one bad hole dosent ruin his game. for he goes af. ter the next hole harder than ever.

 The president may not have the best golf form in the land, but it's a safe wager that he has as good golf temper as any player now eXtant. un- less some of the characters in those old Sunday School books have taken up the ancient Scotch game.
 The executive is not star golfer nor is he bad golfer. His scores run under and over the 100 mark for eighteen holes. He plays golf for the sheer joy of it, and 10 win.
