pense. And these steadily increas-
Ing dues have come largely from
what really, from a golfing stand
point, is unnecessary expenditure, and
many OF the clubs are realizing this.
Municipal golf, while 1t has Increased
and should Increase infinitely more,
does not furnish just the thing for
the individual mentioned above, for
he can hardly take his wife to the
municipal golf course and it is a
selfish thing for him to devote the
holidays he has away from busi-
ness to something in which she is
unable to take part.
The golf architect OF the future un-
doubtedly will be the one who can
show how to save money and up
keep and reduce the dues, rather than
the one who can show where to
spend moro money. Golf is the
greatest individual game we have,
and Is spreading with such rapidity
that 1t is easy to sit back and think
that nothing need be done but to let
1t grow. Those who really love the game
and believe in its possibilities should
work heartily along the line of les
sening its cost. Too much attention
has been paid to the scratch or plus
man, and not nearly enough to the
rank and file.

IF he declines to appear before the

every wish to treat him literally and

This applies to fencers, rifiemen.

that professionals or quasi-profes

RACER ON TURF

On the turf the greatest horse race
Of the year from the standpoint of
public interest was between Zev, win
ner of the Kentucky Derby and Papy-
rus, winner Of the English Derby. The
race held at Belmont Park under poor
conditions did not come up to expecta-
tion, Zev winning easily.
The Futurity. the richest stake of
the American turf was won at Belmont
Park by that game colt. st. James,
carrying George d. Widener's colors.
This victory caused the great two-year
old to be hailed as the champion two
year old OF the year. Zev is generally
regarded as the three-year-old cham
pion in all around ability and con-
sistency under all conditions; certainly
he was unequaled at any distance from
half a mile to mile and a half.
Mr.. McEIwyn, driven against time
