/ SUNDAY SUIT
NOW OBSOLETE
By John P. Medbury

"HE old fashioned Sunday
suit" is now obsolete. The
\. present one consists OF wooden
stockings and tweed knickerhock-
ers.
Instead Of meeting your neigh
bors in church you run into them
on the golf links.
The guy who ten years ago put
Z nickel in the collection plate
now spends twelve dollars on
golf balls.
And in place Of donating a
penny to a heather he gives
seventy-five cents to a caddie.
But he can still listen to q
sermon on the hereafter If he
happens to make drive with
out hollering Fore" *
He doesn't have to wonder
about the place whore he's going
to go; the guy he hits tells him
where It is.
The men who used to hate to
get up at ten o'clock to go to
church now gets up at five to
leave for the golf links.
l- g.
And when he gets out there
ne has to listen to a sermon
from the caddie master for not
replacing the turf that he dug
up with his niblick.
And then he listens to a long
discourse from one of the other
players on how he made the
seventeenth hole In three.
And several hours later when
he gets home his wife breaches
to him about stealing his small
sons pants ana using then1 for
golf knicRerbo
then she tells him that his
playing on Sunday is a sin. He
looks at his score card and
agrees with her.
He tells her he's ashamed of
himself and that he'll try TO
play a better game next Sunday.
It's getting to look as though
the only way the ministers will
be able to fill their churches is
to build them on golf links.
Lots Of men win be glad to
attend services when they see
what a terrible game they're play
ing.
The churches made honest and
truthful men out Of our citizens,
but radio and golf had to come
along and spoil their work.
Some men would rather reach
Cuba on a one-bulb set now than
heaven a few years later.
There are thousands of men
who never play golf on Sunday
and there are millions who can't
play no matter what day 1t is
