ly. Shut off all outside thoughts once
the putting blade gets in motion.
Never mind about trying to remem-
Der a lot of things while putting. I
have seen fine putters who seemed to
have serious faults, but they made up
for any such faults by going firmly
and evenly for the ball, with the blade
of the putter going out for the hole.
The thinking must come at the right
place, or it will do more harm than
good.
On - Pitch or Chip,
In the same way there are just one
or two important things to remember
on a mashie pitch.
Once you see the line the next thing
is to have only one thought in mind
just how hard you are to hit.
After that is decided any further
thought or remembering is worse than
nothing-for you want nothing then
but to consider hitting the ball. with
your mind clear of all other details.
On a chip shot probably the most
important thing to remember is to
start the club head back without a
jerk. If. after this, you are thinking
of nothing else but the act of hitting
the ball you will not jab at it nor lift
your head SO often
have always contended that In
place of not concentrating, golfers in
the main overconcentrate and try to
club head is in motion on every
stroke. the only thought of hitting tho
ball, and OF nothing else. they would
get along far better and would find Il
far easier to keep the head as an an
Choir. That is why so many golfers
have a fine swing when there is no
ball to be hit. They are then swing
ing naturally. with their minds clear.
When they are trying to hit the ball
somewhere they Immediately begin
thinking OF five or six things.
On the first tee one of the most i'm
portant single things to remember IS
not to grip too tightly and not to
hurry the back swing. This isn't
hard thing to -emember and It will
likely get you away to a good start.
For the tendency on the first tee be-
fore you get warmed up is always to
grip too hard and to hit in a hurry
This tendency is more pr Dnounced on
the first tee than anywhere else. for
one is more likely to be nervous at the
start than he is after making q few
strokes and getting the feel OF the
club.

In a conspicuous spot in an outer
office of tho governors chamber
stands low wooden block supporting
an instrument which arouses the
curiosity of hundreds of visitors to
the executives suite. A long lever or
handle with brightly polished knob ex-
tends upward from q cylinder bolted
tightly to the block.
This is the great seal of the state
of Kansas.
A great stack of large sheets of pa
per bearing a history of the seal have
been prepared by the department OF
state.% Whenever inquiries are made
as to what is that thing" a clerk
takes one of these leaflets, stamps the
seal on a red circle in the lower left
hand corner and hands over to the
curious one complete history OF
Kansas seal.
The history tells that the great seal
was procured by the secretary of state
as required by joint resolution ap-
proved May 25, 1851. Under the new
Constitution, the first Kansas legis-
lature met at Topeka on March &c.
of that year and heard the message
of Charles Robinson, the first COVER
nor, which among other things called
attention to the requirement of the
constitution about a seal. After much
parleying, the history says, the senate
finally accepted the report of con-
ference committee on May %, 1851,
deciding the design for the seal.
The last words on this brief his
tory are:
the date. the bison hunt. the log cabin.
But the motto, 'Ad Astra per Aspera.
is not only historic, but suggesting
of fact that will be true forever,
that the conquest of difficulties is ths
way to moral as well as political sue
cess"

The new site will be developed into
a miniature city, with an individual

The city will cover twenty-five and
one-half acres. About $50 one-roonl
cottages will be constructed and sold
to the campers. The average atten-
dance at the annual encampments is

1.-The main trouble with my game
a certain pupil said to me not long
ago, lis this-I try to think of too
many things. / soon get confused and
then don't remember any of them, or
else I remember them at the wrong
time. Is there any way this can be
made easier for the average player?"
There isn't any man living who can
try to remembeT four or five things to
do after he -akes his stance and then
hit the ball.
But it isn't SO bad II you will only

heels so that you don't have to lean
forward on your toes to hit the ball.

That will be the start. These two
things are not hard to remember If

but with no other thought now than
hitting the ball.
once the swing has started there
should be no outside thought-noth-
ing but to hit on thru that ball with
out quitting on the stroke. Never
mind about anything else.
Never mind whether you are going
too far or too short. 1t is too late
to think about this in the middle OF
the swing. For once the swing starts
You must have q single-track mind.
This matter of thinking about other
things in the middle of a swing prob
ably causes more missed strokes than
any other fault in golf. 1t Is certainly
responsible for most OF the head lift

the down stroke.

There are just one or two important
things to remember in turn when you
reach the green.
One great fault here is that most
golfers are still Undecided Just what

Houston, Texas, July 2S.-It was a
slow, disappointing thing to call a
fight that Johnny Dundee. junior
lightweight champion of the world,
went thru with here last night, and
many fans today were disgruntled to
the extent OF bordering on being
downright sore.
Dundee, evidently far off form.
went thru twelve rounds with Kid
Roster, New Orleans. in the feature
event of tho boxing card. The herald
ed sensational boxer failed to show
any of his sensational stuff, seeming
to lack hitting power. He won the
majority of the rounds by a system
of point scoring. Roster had the first
three rounds. Dundee then began
landing on Roster with rights and
lcfts, but few of them affected the
New Orleans youth. the latter proving
to be willing mixer and making
Dundee hold a great deal of the time.
However, when Dundee put his point
scoring system into effect after de-
cisively losing the first three rounds,
he was effective enough to pile up
points and win the newspaper verdict.
Fans razzed the bout in several in
stances.
