The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1923-08-09

The classification OF every ems
trant, along with the date and time
for the playing Of his or her first
qualification round will appear in
all editions of The Washington
Times on Monday, August 20. The
qualifying rounds are scheduled to
get under way on Wednesday, Au-
gust %, and will be run Off just
as expediently as possible.
From present indications the num-
Der of participants in the event
will be so large it will be necessary
to assign each and every contestant
q day and starting time for the
playing of his qualification rounds.
Failure to be present at the ap-
pointed time will be treated as a
default.
The size of the tournament pre-
cludes any and all possibility of
holding consolation event for
the defeated Fights in each six.
teen of each class. The number
of prizes which leading merchants,
members of the District Profess
The Times have donated, is such
that it has been decided to make
awards to the four Semi-finaIists
In each class.
In other words, there will be
six prizes in each class for the final
rounds, or championship flights,
not to mention the special awards
to be made the low medalists in
each class of the qualification
rounds. The prizes will be placed
on exhibition at the East Potomac
Park clubhouse Saturday morning.
The Times has no way in which
to determine just who of those that
have filed classification scores will
play in the qualification rounds.
Monday there will be placed at East
Potomac Park and at Rock Creek
Park entry cards. These cards
should be filled out by prospective
entrants and deposited in the box
that will be placed there for that
purpose.
Those turning in cards between
Monday and Saturday will be as
signed a date and starting time
for the playing of their qualifica-
ton rounds. Entries will positive
" close on Saturday, August Is, at
o'clock.
The qualification rounds will be at
thirty-six holes, medal play, a con-
testant playing eighteen holes one
day and another round Of eighteen
at g. date not over six days from
that of the first. The first, second
and semi-final rounds in the cham
pionship flights will be at eighteen
holes, match play, while the finals
will also be at match play, but at
thirty-six holes.
The Times proposes to make the
day the finals are played a gala
event. A band will be in attendance
and the prizes will be awarded by
one high in official Washington life |
1t will be an occasion long to be re-
membered by all municipal players
Of the District.

1t was a military march that
was striding down the Avenue.
Now it is a mournful parade,

That was the thrill we got out
Of life yesterday.
And may it be a long, long time
before we experience such another.

~ Not every one is a lover or

1t is possible to get a "kick out

1t is possible to get thrill out

Mischa Elman can send thrills

Sometimes, merely to look at a

Beginning next season the sum-
mer homes of G. F. Dippold and N.
f. Niederlander on Meta and Cat
fish lakes, will be fully equipped
electrically. Connection has been
made with the. power line running
to Three Lakes at a point near the
Evergreen School house ON the
north of Meta lake. The line first
connects with the Dippold home
and then runs west to the Nieder-
lander residence. Within a short
time both Meta and Catfish lakes
will be supplied with electric cur
rent to all the resorts and summer
homes on their shores. Mr.. Dip
pold left Eagle River Monday
morning, expecting to join his
family in Chicago where they will
reside until spring. Meta lake will
be their future home all year
round with the exception of a
short stay in the city during the
winter months. Superintendent Ed.
Eckhoff states that power lines
have been extended to the summer
home of F. 0. Weydell located on
Yellow Birch lake.

The Winter.

The beautiful days of Fall must
not deceive US. They are the fore
runners of winter. And they gen
orally provide the last good oppor-
tunity of making adequate prep
aration for the days when the
cold and the snow sare upon us.
The time to provide protection
from the winters cold is now.
There are many who leave their
preparations. until the extreme
weather is here, such delay caus-
ing much suffering to animals.
And often the sudden onrush of
cold weather and snow makes the
building of necessary shelter near
~ impossible The time to get
buildings in shape for the winter
IS before winter comes.
Investigations around the state
show many barns unfit for the
housing of animals. The same is
true of chicken coops, hog houses,
dog kennels, and other places
where animals are kept. These
buildings should be we'll banked
up on the outside with straw or
manure and lined on the inside
with heavy building paper. The
floors should be kept covered with
clean, dry straw a foot deep.
Clean, dry bedding is very irnpor-
tant for all animals. A door which
may be closed nights should open
toward the south, and there should
be windows with whole pieces of
glass for light.
Sufficient feed should be on
hand for the winter. Some farm
ers sell too much of their good
feed and retain only corn fodder
and a poor quality of hay and
straw. All animals lose rapidly in
weight on poor feed, and when
thin, easily succumb to the expos
ure of cold winter.
Adequate shelter and a suffi-
cient amount of feed and water
must be provided for all animals
every day. This is the law, and it
will be strictly enforced this win
ter. If animals cannot be properly
cared for they should de disposed
of. They should not be kept and
allowed to starve and freeze. Of
all crimes, neglect of dumb ami
mails is the one most inexcusable.-

fcer.

Telephone News.

The city ON Montreal, which in
1880 had less than 200 telephones,
row has 100000 telephones in SER
vice.
The city of Chicago has almost
twice as many telephones as the
entire continent Of South America.
The Western Electric Company
lost one American and 100 native
employees in the great japanese
earthquake.
New York has over five times
as many telephones as all of Rus
STA, and nearly twice as many as
the whole of France.
The officials of a Wisconsin
company publicly appeals to hunt
ers not to shoot the insulators off
the telephone poles of that COM
pany.
The Japanese earthquake des-
troyed 16 telephone exchanges and
$4,000 telephone lines which in
cluded practically all of the tele-
phone facilities Of Toxic and its
suburbs.
There are 1853 miles of wire
in the average sized Bell telephone
central office, enough to reach
from San Francisco to New York
and half way back across the con-
tinent.
The Hawthorne works of the
Western Electric Company at Chi
cago is now the largest manufac-
turing plant in Illinois, employ
ing 33,700 men and women which
is about five per cent. of the total
working force of Chicago.

Mothers Give the Most

his fathers millions and all the
free hand of opportunity. IF Edsel
should suddenly become pennilese
we doubt that he would be able TO
come back to his present status
or make the record his father
made.
Who ever heard of Abraham
Lincoln's father? Nobody, for he
was an inferior man, a squirrel
gun Yankee, whose greatest am
bltlon was to trap musk-rats. But
Lincoln's mother was a noble
woman. Back there in those pio-
neer woods, the soul of this great
woman shone out as a beacon
light. 1t was no wonder that
Abraham walked miles in the dark
to borrow books, for he had the
Inspiration of his mother. In all
of his writings he blessed the
memory of that mother, and he
gave public utterance to the state
ment, All that I am or ever hone
to be, | owe to my angel mother"
1t great men beget great sons,
then Llncoln's son should have
been great. Robert Lincoln: who
ever heard of him-a social butter
fly who never did thing to help
the world!
Look around at your acquaint-
ances and pick out the BRIGHTEST
boy you know, and it is most
probable that you will find that
he has bright mother. He NAV
also have bright father, but he
would have been bright in spite of
his father. We can think right
now of boys whose fathers are rec
ognized as leaders, who are bright
men, and who are credited as such
they are men who are leaders in
their communities, men who have
stood for the right and helpful,
but their wives, good women
enough, are of low aspiration
little care for anything that reach
es out for greater things and
without exception the boys of
these men have had hard times to
get through school.
In justice to the dads, it is we'll
to have these father and son
weeks, to get closer to the boys
and IN better sympathy with their
play; it is we'll to have poor old
father get little recognition for
the hard work he does to keep the
boys clothed and fed, but none of
us need to get too high headed ev-
en- at this time of Dads week for
after all it is Mother who gives
the boy his best.

AND CARL FLORIN WE'D

Miss Maude Hardin, of Lewiston
and Carl Florin, of Grageville, were
married Saturday evening in Lewiston.
The ceremony was performed by the
Rev. Mark Pike, pastor of the Lewis
ton Methodist church.
The bride is a daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. G. N. Hardin, who until last fall,
resided on a ranch near Grangeville,
but now living near Lewiston. She
is a graduate of Grangeville high
