W. G. Gordon "a good farmer, of
Gibson county, who has been here
this week, was one of a crowd of
men talking of the fact that all things
evil in the cities and towns finally
reach out and get the country dis

these evils is the falling off in the
birthrate, so noticeable everywhere

When the new pope was elected last
Monday, he stepped out on the balco-
ny of the Vatican and bestowed his
blessing on the crowd in st. Peters
Square, the first time the Supreme
Pontiff has done such thing in 81
years, during which time the pope has
been virtually a prisoner within the
thirteen acres of the vatican. The
crowd present when the pope was
elected did not compare with the day
before when the number was esti-
mated at 100, 900.

A good definition for history is
History is past record of events. It
describes the past conditions and ac-
tons of men, investigates the causes
that have operated to produce them,
and traces the effects or the results
of the events. Therefore, history
should be taught from a series of pro-
gressive standpoints.

HOnOrs in Fencing

Az was the case In the last Olympic
games and In the 1921 invasion Of the
British fencing teams, America re-
tanned her position on the pedestal Of
fencing in 1922. There was only one
invasion-that of the Cuban team

skill with the foils, epee and saoer'
they could not defeat the United States
team.
The Cubans will be the hosts 70 the
team selected by the Amateur Feneer

that we will send a team to England

That this country now leads its
overseas rival in this great sport no
body will deny. Britons admit the
superiority Of the Americans In golf
Just at present. In the two interns-
tional matches that have been played
between amateur teams the United
States players won handily.
A number Of Americans have COM
peted for the British open crown, but
it remained for Walter Hsgen 70 win
the honor this past year Of being the
first and only home-bred golfer to
capture the British Open Golf cham
pionship. Likewise the assaults OF
British amateur and professional
PLAYERS In the United States amateur
and open tournaments were success
fully repulsed.
Uncle Sam Safe for Time
OF. course, it is only fair 10 Great
Britain to say that she has been
greatly handicapped in sport since the
war. what with her ranks sadly de-
pleted. She may win back the superb
ority in golf eventually, although IL
Is not likely she will do so within the
next five or ten years. And with the
game fast winning favor everywhere
here Il Is likely that after Britain has
recovered from her war losses the
strife in golf between the two eoun-
tries will be nip and tuck

I and away the greatest ever hung up by
any golfer In a single year.
Jesse Sweetser, also a lad Of only
81 years, predominated the amateurs
quite as much as SaraZen did
the professionals. sweetsers first
notable triumph Of the year was his
romp in the annual metropolitan ANA
teur meeting at Lakewood. In only one
match was Sweetser extended at all.
Before and after this tournament
Sweetser, who was on a golf rampage
the entire season, established half a
dozen or more course records. In Sep
tember he walloped a galaxy Of stars
In the national amateur champ onship
at Brookline, and left experts and crit
les dizzy by consistent sensational per-
formRnces.
In hts mad rush To the top during
that eventful week Sweetzer bowled
over In order: Willie Hunter, former
British amateur champion; Jesse Gull
ford, ex-national amateur titleholder;
Chick Evans and Bobby Jones, who
need no introduction to the golf public
at large. Conquering four titans such
as these in successive days Is record
indeed. What is more, Sweetser in
each and every one Of these contests
left no doubt as to the issue once Il
got we'll under way.
Miss ColIett Leads Ladies'
Quite as remarkable and unpreee-
dented as the exploits Of these two
boys was the play of Miss Glenna Col
lett, a charming young lass Of nineteen
summers. She has been climbing the
ladder Of fame the last two years, and
arrived at the top this year with
bound.
Several victories in the South last
winter, including the Women's North
and South meeting at Pinehurst,
gave her a running start. Her
win in the Eastern women's champion
ship at WestchesteT-Biltmo early in
the season was a forerunner Of what
this Providence girl was TO accomplish
before the end Of the year. Finally
came her great victory in the national
meeting at White Sulphur Springs
Miss Glenns Collett we'll deserves
her honor as queen Of American golf.
She takes her place with the youth Of
the land, who have Jared up this old
game to an artistic science that has
gone far beyond the imagination Of the
