when the player has progressed
down the fairway to the point
where he calls for irons, the prac-
tice swing may be made To serve
\ double purpose. The player may
true up his aim, by swinging
couple of times, mt n precise spot
on the ground, and at the same
time he may measure the pressure
needed on the stroke for the rNc-
cutiOn of the diStanc ahead. If the
ball Is in tail grass he may also
measure the resistance Of this

with the yardage called for to the

always going about with number OF
small things bothering him.
What is needed is clean shop
where cars can be left an hour or two
for the purpose of grooming them
mechanically. No repair work OF a
serious nature should be done in these
shops. The mechanics should look
like gentlemen so that if milady finds
the clutch pedal a trifie annoying
the man assigned to the work won't
ruin the upholstery when he gets into
the car to work. Accurate measur-
ing instruments and the best of tools
! should be used. A mechanic in such
a shop would know, for example,
Just exactly how much further the
needle valve of the carburetor should
be closed in order to give two miles
more to the gallon.
If cars that are not all worn down
at the heel could be cared for in such
manner owners would find motor
ing more generally satisfactory. 1t
would also be more economical in the
long run, for attention to the minor
ailments would postpone the time
when a car is due for a complete
overhauling at a service station.
Physicians are now divided into
general practitioners and specialists
,, who do the operating. Why not a
similar division of mechanics?

1914 to 1919. considered from a sociological
standpoint.
The Y. NJ. c. a. offered its services to
the Government on the first day of the
war. Its organization was marked by the
same unpreparedness for the gigantic SER
vice it was forced to render as that which
confronted the War and Navy Depart
ments. And its task of bringing its staff
to war efficiency forms almost an analogy
TO that of the Government during the
early years of the war.
Service with the armies abroad presented
its difficulties First, and foremost. they
concerned themselves with the personnel
department. Men, and women too. must
be selected who would best fill the gap
which the "Y" found it its task to close.
They must represent home and all of its
many conveniences and comforts to the
men in service. Then there were difficulties
of transportation At first 90 per cent. of
their requisitional necessities were trans
ported but with the increase in space
necessary to the Government for carrying
troops and their immediate needs in equip
ment, the space set aside for Y NJ c. A.
needs was reduced to 20 per cent of its
actual necessities. Motor trucks were re-
qured for transport i'm France and these
when secured. We're often requisitioned for
use by the Government Military needs

supervision was recognized by the Govern
ment as a necessity i'm the lives of the

of the service, which the ~" was able
to give the soldiers, but this book. setting
