McCumber said the soldiers bonus bill
would be before the Senate in a week.
Action should be obtained in a day or
two, he said.
Notwithstanding the support of many
Democrats, the opponents Of the bonhs
bill served notice that they will have
considerable to say on the measure.
Senator Underwood of Alabama, minority
leader, said he would offer no coopera
ton to expedite the bonus bill to which
he was strongly opposed
Mr.. McCumber ard Mr.. Watson. how

they charged Democrats with seeking to
delay action on the tariff bill.
Their hopes for early action on the
soldiers bonus bill were high. Senator
Watson of Indiana, McCumber of North

President Harding on this measure.
They were confident the President could
be reconciled to the soldiers bonus bill

Although the changes in the House bill
are slight. they felt certain some agree

New System of
Fat Reduction

Here's new way for all fat people to
laugh together at that old bugaboo-Obes-
ity. The saying that "there is nothing new
under the sun" does not now apply to fat
people any more. Here is something new
for them-a new sensation. n new pleasure,
a new and graceful figure, easily found by
anyone who is passing beyond the limits of
slimness. Everyone has heard of the
MarmOla Prescription; that harmless conf@
bination of fA1rdefying elements perfected
by one of the Foremost physicians. Now,
from the same high authority. there comes
another idea-the idea of eondensing these
same, pure, harmless ingredients into
pleasant little tablet. Taken after edting
and at bedtime. they help the stomach to
dispose of all the fatty foods, converting
them into compact. solid flesh. muscle and
energy. withou dieting or exercise Mar
mola Prescription Tablets regulate the en-
tire system-do for you what bodily exer-
ton and self denial can not do. and the fat,
once routed, is gone for good. You can
prove all this at trifling cost Marmola

want to begin this lesson by going
back to remark have already
made: Think of the right thing at
the right time.
And when you come to play a shot
that seems to be just a little longer
than your Jigger or your midiron can
handle, the first thought here is what
club you shall take from the bag to
get home without forcing the stroke.
want to say here that for the aver
age player~1 never advocate using a
cleek, which is useful at times but
one of the hardest clubs in the bag to
play, due in the main to its narrow
blade and lack of loft.
As a general proposition I would
suggest that you take our your spoon,
as it is one of the easiest, simplest
clubs in the bag for all types of golf
ersA for the star and duffer alike.
The spoon especially should be used
II there is any carry to make or If the
ground is soft.
The driving iron might be peter
where you have an open approach, the
ground is hard and you are playing
against the wind.
The Spoon.
The spoon is a great club to use.
even when you might get home with a
midiron, and for these reasons:
You know you can get there easily
with a spoon, so you don't try to kill
the ball for distance.
You know there is loft to the club,
so you don't try to lift the ball up
The spoon, therefore, becomes &
simple, natural stroke where the club
takes care of itself.
IF you have a full iron shot I am a
great believer in taking a slightly
lower grip on the spoon and then hit
ting with a natural effort, rather than
pressing with the other club. Hilton
has shown what winning effects one
can get with a spoon, where many
golfers would use only a jigger, at a
distance of 1 SO or 160 yards.
Duncan, Ray and Bobby Jones are
all fine spoon players and they all use
this club at every chance.
I noticed at Inverness that Ray was
using a spoon at the eighth hole,
where Nardon was using an iron, and
Ray picked up at least three strokes,
enough to beat Vardon for the title.
Playing the Spoon
In playing the spoon you must stand
little closer to the ball, as it has
a shorter shaft than the driver or
brassie.
You must take a longer stroke than
you use for the iron. with greater
freedom of the wrists.
The elbows are in close, but not
so compact as for the iron The right
the body and the left elbow must be
held straight on the back swing.
The heel barely comes off the
ground in this shot, with the inside of
the LEFT foot gripping the earth.
In play--g the spoon you hit down
little more, owing to the loft on the
face of the club, but make up your
mind not to hit too soon: to delay
the blow as long as possible Don't
put your body into this stroke, for
the club itself will get you home.
The driving iron or cleek is played
more like the wood than any other
iron club. except that you stand just
q little closer to the ball

Building Up Your Game

Former Open Golf Champion of the U. 6.

You have the game foot action, the
same pivoting. Take only a three
quarter back swing with a firm left
wrist and armf the left hand starting
the swing. Strike down at the ball
but don't try to lift, finishing with the
wrists well out
Don't let the body get in front OF
the ball on the down swing, as a
smotherine, effort will result. Don't
move the right foot until the ball Is
struck
Remember again, On both spoon
and driving iron, that as the left knee
pivots or points in toward the ball
the left shoulder works with it on the
down swing.
That on the forward swing the right
knee and the right shoulder work to-
gether
Once you have taken 90 a spoon
or driving iron, you know you have
a club that will get good distance
try to slug with them If there is any
doubt that these two are not long
enough, take your brassie.
Here is another tip: Suppose you
come to a second shot where you can't
et.home with a brassie.
In that case always use your spoon
as the safer club. If you are not go
ing to reach the green, anyhow, IL is
better to take a chance on a little
longer third shot than to risk a
brassie, which is much harder to play.
You can get the spoon shot up easier
from a closer lie and control its direc-
ton better from a good one.
If it SO happens you are playing
against. the wind and there are no
bunkers to carry, I would use a driv-
ing iron in place of a spoon.
The spoon is also fine club to use
on one-shot holes, where the green
Here, from $50 to $50 or 100 yards,
you can lit the ball up into the air,
knowing that it will have little run at
the finish. II the distance is only
around $50 Or ITO yards you can grip
lower down on the leather and still
take a good, natural rap at the ball
without attempting to check the
swing. 1t is as much a mistake to
spare the shot and hit too easy as it
is to overswins5 and press. What we
are after is a natural, normal swing
that can go on thru without being
hurried or checked. And good golfers
are coming more and more to the use
of the spoon for carr. ing purposes.
where the distance lies between a mid
iron and a brassie.
If you have a shot against the wind
that isn't quite a full driving shot, but
that would mean pressing a lighter
iron. take a lower grip on the leather
again and use the driving iron.
Remember. again, to hit down at
the ball and not to lift the club head
with the wrists. Remember. also, to
think of the back swing first, and on
the down swing let the club head
start in an even, natural way without
being hurried
The left hand and arm start the
swing. but after the down swing is
started the right arm takes full con-
troll.
If you set a chance to watch ALEX
Smith. one of the best. you will see
what a big part the right hand takes
in the forward blow.

New York, Dec. o. Gracialita
Palma with sparkling eyes, bewitching
smile and twinkling toes is one of the
stars that shine from the big stage
of the Hippodrome for the nightly
amusement of hundreds of blase New
Workers.
Night after night she goes thru her
performance, always happy, always
gay, always with the same carefree
abandon.
Across the city, far away from the
bright lights, is a much different
scene. There are no enthusiastic audi
ences. Only white CARRIED attendants.
Instead of a stage only rows of mar
row white cots greet the eye. On one
of these lies the figure of a man, pale
and emaciated.
Thru his drawn lips occasionally
comes the name of a woman and with
it terms of endearment.
Perhaps her presence, for just
fleeing moment. might bring their
patient back from the shadow of the
grave?
