Medbury
Says
By John P. Medbury.

/ ~ 4
By John P. Medbury.
~ OFF is wonderful game.
but 1t has made more
~ widows out OF wives than
death or divorce.
Whenever you see a woman al
dressed up in mourning you don't
know whether she has lost her
husband through an accident or
a golf course.
Most men start playing at
o'clock in the morning, and this
is very handy as lot of them
can go right out to the links on
their way home.
The average player dresses In
knickerbockers, sweater and cap.
A tTuant officer arrested six golf.
ers the other day for playing
hockey from school.
The cop took one Of them home
and said: Madame, here Ia your
son." Then she took him over
her knee and spanked him for
ten minutes before she discovered
he was her husband.
How was she to know he was
her husband. She hadn't seen
him in long time.
The average woman takes a
good look at her husband on her
wedding day, as she doesn't get
chance to see much Of him
afterward.
One dame said to another,
"Your husband is q very hand
some man, isn't he?" Then the
other woman answered: Eyes,
that's what / hear"
But women who have golfer
husbands usually live harmoni.
ously. You can't quarrel with a
man you can't find.
One dame sued her husband for
divorce. The only way she could
get to talk to him for five min
utes was to drag him iPto court.
Most men even talk golf in
their sleep. One wife got so tired
hearing about the game that she
was tickled to death when her
husband was stricken with In.
somnia.
He used to be fast asleep and
holler "Fore!' and he hoIlered IL
so loud that the cook downstairs
heard him and got UP and started
cooking breakfast.
She was scared to death that
she had slept an hour overtime.
Golf has gotten more MEN out
of bed in the morning than all
the alarm clocks In the world.
One guy was 30 sleepy in the
morning that not long ago he
jumped out of bed, threw his wife
over his shoulder and kissed his
golf-bag goodbye.
He didn't realize his mistake
until his wife started to weep.
He knew there was something
wrong, because his golf-bag never
cried before.
Nowadays when a woman tells
you she has lost her husband you
don't know whether to look for
his name in the obituary column
or on the sporting page
There's only one way to cure
your husband Of the golf bug.
Go out to the links and play with
him.

On April 81, 1923, a Detroit

She stated that she had gone
up at once to his room, the door OF
which had been left open by the but
Ter when he rushed out. She had
crossed to the bed and called him by
name. When ne did not answer, she
| looked closer and saw that he was
dead. Her voice broke little on this
and continued. The next thing she
had done, she said, was to call the
doctor.
For the first time, the district at
torney took a hand in the proceedings.
'Ten US how you found him."
She answered that he was lying on
his back, the bedclothes pulled up
around his chin, and his hands by his
side. She had not pulled the bed
clothes down from the body, nor dis
turbed them In any way. 1t was not
until she had noticed the wound in
his head that she realized he had been
shot.
did you disturb the body" was
the next question.
There was a long silence, then halt
ingly. "I-well, that Isl did close
his eyes. Their expression fright
ened me, so-I-closed them"
She received a rather disguised look
from the district attorney, who asked,
did you not know that the body
should have been left as you found it."
II" she made an appealing ges-
ture: II never thought Of that. Only
Of his eyesl They frightened me,
they-stared so. simply closed them.
But I did nothing else"
King then asked a question thar
surprised me. you thought he had
committed suicide?"
She hesitated, started to speak,
stopped and at last found her voice.
"Why, yes. That-that Isl did at
the time. But I don't know what to
think now"
why did you think he killed him
self"
This seemed harder question to
answer than the other.
"Why, I don't know. You see, he
was shot; and 1 knew Of no one who
would want to kill him. AS far as
The Challis messenger. (Challis, Idaho) 1912-current, 1923-06-06

that goes, I know of no reason why
he should have wanted to- take his
own life"
The next questions were along the
line she Fad suggested by her answers.
Could she not think of some reason
why he might have committed sui
eide ill health or money troubles?
Had he Quarreled with anyone lately :?
She seemed to have more difficulty
with these last questions than with
any of the previous ones. She was
so long in answering that some of
them had to be repeated several times.
She was so careful Of what she said
that she gave me the impression that
she was trying to keep something
back.
In response to the first question,
she repeated that she knew no rea-
son why Slyke should want to COM
NIT suicide. She had heard Of no
money troubles, and his health was
good. No, she had never heard of
his having Quarreled with anyone. 1t
was this last answer that she had hes
itated longer over than over any of
the others, and 1t was the one which
caused me to feel sure she was hiding
something.
The question regarding the revolver
that had been found in Sykes hand
she answered readily enough. He had
kept it in his room. just where, she
did not know; 1t was one that he had
bought year before.
When questioned as to her own do
lngs on the night of his death, she
could tell us nothing Of value. There
had been card party, but she had
gone to bed about ten o'clock and had |
not even heard the men go out. Dur
ng the night she had heard no sound.
As this was all she had to tell abe
