HONEY PHILOSOPHY

Isn't it great that all the long faces Of the ministers are bein' shortened, that they are startn' to smile, an be human, and help us over the rough spots with a little cheer in stead of few moans? Have you ever been able to figure why when the reaper comes around the ministers always figure they should tell us ''the moment we begin to live that mo- ment we begin to die?' Maybe they thnk even if this sort of thing does make everybody feel badly it1 stir lem up to walk little straighter. But why not switch the cards, an give us the facts, ''the moment we begin to die that moment we begin to live?" With the olorv of God an his great arms of charity an kindness awaitin' us, what on earth have we got to feel bad about?

teenth, attracted a field of four that
probably wouldn't have commanded
the price of three bits for the lot at
public auction. But it developed one
of the most exciting heats of the aft
ernoon, nevertheless. r. Nolan, with
Beckna, raced the favorite, Kirtle, into
submission through the long stretch
run, then drew away to win handily.
Kirtle had plenty of early speed, but
tired badly in the last furlong. Algoa,
which was heavily played, was very
slow to begin and then ran out almost
to the outer fence in turning into the
stretch. Algoa finished with such
a burst Of speed that he would have
been mighty dangerous had he held the
course.
Sea Skipper, which won the steeple-
chase, would never have commanded
the price he did had he not been known
to the faithful as a bleeder Howard
Lewis, his trainer, prophesied him as
the surest entry that ever went to the
post. provided he escaped the mishap,
as he did.
Prince of Umbria, which finished sec
ond in the first race, is the first of the
get of Brown Prince to run in this coun-
try. Brown Prince is the brother of
Ambassador, the sire of Constancy and
other good ones.

also have.
Evans entered his first open in 1914.
He has led the amateurs every year
since that start with the lone excep-
ton of 1915. when Travers won. He
finished stroke back Of Hagen in
1914 for second place, and he won at
Minikahda in 1915 with the lowest total
ever made in a national whirl--2S6,
or 2 under even as for seventy-two
holes.
Evans hasn't the power of Barnes
and Hagen. But there is no golfer in
the world who will be in less trouble
or straighter down the course. His
accuracy is unsurpassed by any golfer
now in the game, and if he happens to
be in putting mood he will be hard
to catch.
Evans plays almost every shot with
his feet upon an even line. For his
grip he keeps both thumbs down the
shaft, but there is no further attempt
at overlapping. He has very fine
way of letting his left shoulder start
the back swing, and not even Duncan
has an easier style.
Evans is Twenty-Five years old, S
feet 10 inches tall, weighing 155
pounds. He has won the amateur twice,
the open once and the Western ANA
teur seven times.
Bobby Jones, twenty years old last
March. is 5 feet Q inches in height,
with a displacement of $50 pounds. He

Racing Season
AT Empire City
To open To-day
Empire City Handicap, With
Grey Lag the Favorite,
Is Feature of Program

Racing to-day switches from Long
Island to Yonkers. The Empire City
track. made famous by Jim Butler, will
entertain lovers of the Thoroughbred
for the next nineteen racing days. EN-
pire City is the jumping-ot place foi
Saratoga, the mecca of the American
turf.
In many respects the Yonkers merry
goround is by far the most interesting
of the local layouts. 1t attracts more
Western horses than any other metro
politan meet simply because of the fact
that it does not conflict with Ken
lucky. The thoroughbreds that cam
pagn through the blue grass section,
with weather eye peeled toward sara
toga, invariably stop over at Empire
City for purposes of acclimation. The
others travel to Canada to replenish
the draft on class from the Dominion
that the Spa always levies.
Racing Secretary Schaumberg has
provided holiday card of quality FOR
the opening Of the summer meeting at
Empire City. Principal of the SIX
events is the Empire City Handicap at
one mile and an eighth. Only five have
been named overnight for this rich
classic But class makes up for the
want of numbers.
NIey Lag, oI inc NanCocaS staple,
will undoubtedly be favorite, and a
his package up in 1872 pounds. VIA
the weight adjustments levied h.
Handicapped Vosburgh several steeds
are likely to be able to make Grey I.aa
stretch his neck no matter how well
primed he may be for this event There
is Devastation, for instance, which is
in at lG2 pounds, the weight he carried
on Julya4 in the independence Hand
cap at Latonia, when he finished see
ond to Firebrand. The Quincy Stables
Captain Alcock also should go we'll un-
der his rigging of lis pounds, espo-
cially if the Yonkers course is not
lightning fast. And then there is
Frank Browns three-year- old Hephaia.
ttos,. tossed in with the proyerbjal
feather of 95 pounds. With such f.,
vorable pull in the weights, this son Of
Vulcain is apt to show something really
worth while.
Some smart sprinters are included in
the list of fifteen eligibles in the sec
ondary feature, the Brevoort Selling
Handicap, at the short six furlongs. The
Rancocas Stables three-year- old, Little
Chief, one of the best of the crop Of
two-year-olds one year ago, is SEIZED
uled to make his first start since :he
Jamaica meeting in the handicap won
by Tryster. Little Chief, like many
another thoroughbred of pretension
was knocked out of training by the
epidemic of influenza. In Routlcdge,
Daydue, Valor, Whisk, Crank, St. Allan
and Muscallonge (not to mention the
others) Little Chief should find an au-
dience to make him show his best ar
gument or ross-examination.
From now until the big meeting
opens at Saratoga the steeplechase dew
ctces will have q vacation. The tim
ber-toppers have all been sent TO the
Spa and the chase riders have gone
with them to school them against the
chances of defeat by the best from Can
ada that always attend Saratoga. En-
pire City, like Jamaica, boasts no
steeplechase course. 1t is ALWAYS a
collar and elbow tusslc with the books
over the fiat.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1922-07-08

has extremely powerful wrists and
hands, with one of the finest golf styles
known, wherein firmness, rhythm and
power are perfectly blended.
Jones played in his first open at
Inverness in 1920 to finish one stroke
back of Evans in eighth place, at 299,
and only four strokes back Of Ray,
the winner. At Columbia last summer
he again finished a stroke back Of
Evans for fifth place, on his last
round jolting him badly.
Jones is another marvellous stylist,
not quite SO consistently straight as
Evans, but even more brilliant. He has
handicapped himself before by play
ing a bit too much golf before the
championship started, while lack of
championship experience has worked
against him.
He is to-day steadier, finer scorer
than he ever was before, with far bet
Ter control of himself in the way Of
poise.
With Jones and Evans it will be
more matter of putting than any
thing else. If the tide is running for
them on the green their chances will
be second to none in the tournament
list. For both in the last two weeks
have been travelling at dizzy speed, and
those who take either Of them too
lightly will soon be requesting a sec
ond guess
