Smith and Jones are on the green
about an equal distance from the
hole. Smith. who is trifle the
closer, puts first and holes out.
Jones then calls attention to the
fact that his ball is farther from
the hole and that he should have
rutted first. Jones claims the hole.
Is he entitled to it?
Jones has no claim to the hole.
He can only recall the stroke, caus-
ing Smith to replace his ball as near
as possible to where it was prior to
the stroke on which he holed out.
Smith should then putt and Jones
follow in proper manner.
Two players in a single match
find their balls are within a few
inches OF each other. The PLAYER
who is away requests his opponent
TO lift his ball. He complies with
the request. The player who is
away then plays his shot and badly
damages the turf. If the player who
hfted replaces his ball in its original
position, he will be badly h,ndicap.
ped because of the damaged turf
what are the rights of the player
VINO lifted in such a case?
Ihe player who lifted should not
be handicapped, and for that reason
Is allowed to place the ball in a
similar lie to the original one an
near as possible to where the ball
originally lay.

Recently an assistant to my
boss was put in the place where
/ work. He hasn't much say
over me, but enough to make
it very disagreeable. He is Of
ficious and always busy finding
something to criticize.
1t has got so | can't do any
thing without him butting in.
My interest in my work is 60
ing fast, just through his inter-
ference. If you were in my place
would you quit the job or would
you stick it out and fight with
him? I would like your advice.
MARGARET NJ.
My very dear Margaret, what a
narrow view you take for a girl
with pluck enough and ability to
pick a career while still in high
school and hold to it till success
lies just ahead!
Don't you know that always,
everywhere, there are workers
tempted to slight their work or
give it up altogether because
someone near them is "disa gree
able and officious?" It's the dirt
the dirt that goes with the gold,
you see!

Here's How Party Bosses Can

Henry Fords Case Provides Ample Evidence of Need
for the Direct Primary.

Numerous straw political experts outsde OF

Yet those very Of politics who testify to this state

that he will not be nominated.
The bosses Of both parties will permit f they

The people may propose, but the bosses dispose

DIVORCE EASY
AMONG THE
ESKIMOS

"HE Eskimos. although a
primitive people, seem to
have worked out a very
practical mode of living.
Perhaps this is because their
life is continuous struggle for
food and for existence against
the cold. This may take up so
much of their time that they
have none left for other consider
atoms.
Things seem to adjust them
selves there without any written
laws, officials or government.
They are not worried over cleo
tions, rents, income taxes or the
like.
In fact, outside of getting
enough to eat and keeping warm,
there are very few problems.
Money troubles do not exist be-
cause there is no money. Meat
is the only standard and medium
of exchange.
Simple honesty prevails in this
cold country. If a man borrows
some meat, there is never a ques-
ton of whether he will pay his
Indebtedness. He always does.
With his first good luck in hunt
ing-before he has used a morsel
of the meat for himself--he pays
the neighbor from whom he has
borrowed.
There seems to be no necessity
for laws or courts.
In marriage matters the Eski-
mo customs are as simple and
direct.
In the Arctic regions when a
man and woman disagree, there
Is no haggling or long-drawn-out
lawsuit.
If man wishes to be divorced
or a woman wishes to be relieved
Of her husband, this is the
method which is employed for
dissolving the partnership.
After an agreement has been
reached by the couple to sepa-
rate, the man goes away to
another igloo for a few days.
While there he sulks and pouts
and pretends to be very angry
He may not feel the slightest
qualm in leaving his mate and
she may be of the same mind.
But anger must be shown.
After this tragic comedy has
been played for a few days, it is
admitted and acknowledged by
every one that the couple are di-
vorced.

The Gold of Life Can Be Won
Only by Digging Through
Muck, Lucy Lowell Says
By Lucy Lowell.

NEARLY everything in this
~ world that's worth going
and getting is all wrapped
round by other things that are
disagreeable and discouraging.
If you want to be an artist,
you just must go through the
toll Of learning to draw lines be-
fore you may enjoy the wonder
of light and shade. If you're
hunting gold, you'Il cut your
hands on Jagged stones. But
cuts will heal and anyway, if
you're watching for the shining
flecks, you won't be paying mucn
attention to what's round it, will
you?
This is the thought brought to
me this morning by a letter:

and said:
