Tales of a Wayside Tee
BY GRANTLAND RICE
Copyright. 1924. New York rubun. Inc.

One Of our standard copy book max
inns runs about as follows: "If at
first you don't succeed, try, try again.
There are those who follow this ad-
vice for short spell and then get
discouraged
There are others who give it q
longer whirl, and then decide that
Fate and Destiny have erected an in
surr.ountable barrier
Jim Barnes of Pelham belongs to
neither class
The new Open Champion of America
began hammering at the door of the
throne room back at Buffalo in 1912.
For years he has had the game that
deserved q crown. For years he has
been able to win minor championships
and big tournaments where all the
leading stars were entered. But when
it came to an American or British
title something reached out and yanked
him back where one bad round was suf-
ficient to spike his claim.
Nine Years of 1t
A nineyear pursuit is bound to be a
discouraging event. Yet Barnes appar-
Last year at Inverness, when he was
or top of his game, he expected to
break through. He couldn't quite make
it. This year at ST. Andrews ne was
confident again that he would have his
chance. At the end of the third round
he was tied for first place, with a won
dcrful chance to reap his long delayed
harvest of glory and acclaim. But once
again he fell back.
But when he came to Columbia he
was still undiscouraged. ~ am now

me out forever" So in place of bark
ing at past fate, of wasting any time
at self-pity for other years and other
championships where he might have
won, he went to work more grimly than
ever. He knew what big field and
what a brilliant one he had to beat.
He knew that Duncan or Hutchinson or
Mitchell, among others, might swing
into line with par breaking marches
any moment. But his main idea in this
championship was to play his best golf
from start to finish, even in the quail
flying round, and by nerve control and
complete concentration to leave as
little as possible to chance. Even when
he was seven strokes ahead, with only
eighteen holes left, he played as care
fully and as grimly as if he were tied
with Hagen Or Mcleod.
Dispelling a Hoodoo
Barnes and Hutchinson have both dis

that no winner Of the qualifying medal

On the wake Of good crop as we
appear to be now we are often lax
about preparing for the other kind OF
season. While we are prosperous we
should fix ourselves for the time
when we are not so fortu nate. The
livestock farmer seems to stand the
dry seasons and wheat failures much
better than the grain farmer. That
is the livestock farmer who really
takes care of them. There are very
few seasons when feed Of some kind
cannot be grown. The winter is the
irving time for the feeding of live
stock. A silo is good means OF
answering this and here is where pit
silos are very successful and it is not
so expensive. ,
A pit silo can be constructed quick.
" and cheaply. They can be filled
easily and covered easily. The main
difficulty is in getting the silage out
when feeding. This is usually ,ac-
complished by derrick which has &c
be made to hoist the dirt out when
digging the pit. A cover must DC
made which has place to let this
hoist basket through. All this is not
difficult if properly planned. Inc
construction Of the pit silo can be
made very simple and every livestock
farmer should think about them Sc
riously. Before building look over
number of them to get the best plans.
There is very little time lost in plan

Of the schools for the coming term
was turned down by a vote of 119 to
II and it is feared that closing Of the
schools before the regular term is
much more than half expired may re-
suit.
It requires between $4,000 and
sec, 900 to maintain the schools Of the
district each year. Last year less
than 40 per cent Of the taxes were
paid, and the former board found it
necessary to expend about $4,000 for
new buildings. The teachers have
received no money since some time
about February or March, and alto
gether there was a deficit of approx
mately $4,000 when the school term
closed; $4,000 worth of bonds were
sold but no money has yet been re-
ceived from this source.
Last year the total levy was 81
mills, namely, 10 mills by the state,
mills levied by the commissioners
for the sinking fund, and an addition
al Is mills voted by the taxpayers at
a special election.
This year the levy stands at about
is or is mills and had the additional
levy been granted at the election the
rate would have been IS or So mills,
S mills higher than last year.
The funds which will be available,
about SIS, 900, providing taxes are
paid, will permit Of q term Of about
FIVE months. A full nine months term
is required in order to maintain an
accredited high school.
