Under W at conditions
should clubs other than the
driver be used from the tee?
Answered by
JOHN BLACK
"The Carpenter Of Troon." whose
great gamenes3 ana mastery OF golf
make him feared at all tournaments.
Particularly competent on approach
shots.
The driver should always be used
from the tee unless the distance you
want to get Is less than the driver
calls for or unless there Is some high
object in front of the tee thatcalls
for more elevation thant the driver
will give. Then you have to use a
club with more loft to 1t. Which club
you use will be largely a matter of
fondness-brassie, spoon or driving
iron. / have even seen very short,

to use q mashie or a niblick from

 Inside the apartments of some of these skyscrapers were found articles as sur prising as the tall buildings themselves. what are undoubtedly children's toys made of clay. There are tiny camels and ele- plants, and a crude attempt at a chariot, with movable wheels of wood.
 Many small pitchers have been found, which, from the hieroglyphics on them, have been identified as babies nursing bottles, indicating that the mothers of that time were modern in many ways.
 Modern, too, was the f1apper of three thousand years ago. Apparently, accord ing to the discoveries in the ancient sky scrapers, she had all the toilet requisites of the girls of to-day. Jugs have been found which contained the olive oil always rubbed into milady's skin before retiring. There are bowls which contained henna for the hair, and other bowls for orris root, which, when pulverized, made skinned beauties. There are bottles for perfumes and dishes for sandal-wood and herbs which were used in the bath. And just to show that not one item was over looked, there are tiny bowls which con tained colored salves, which the ancient fappers used as rouge. Likewise there are odd-looking tubes for all the world like the present-day cigarette-holder, which were undoubtedly used for the colored salve and were the fore-runner of the modern lip-stick.
 Of the skyscrapers themselves, they were undoubtedly used as apartments, and not as business offices. Each contained three or four rooms-without bath. But on the first floor of every building were found pools for community bathing.
 Ancient Carthage, which was located in Roman Africa, was quite as far ad- vanced as Rome itself. For many years there was great rivalry between the two cities. In many respects, archeologists now believe, Carthage was far ahead of Rome At least she had modern sky scrapers and lipsticks thousand years before Christianity.

On the outside of the skyscrapers are stair cases, leading to the various apartments.

Baptist Programs
The Old and the New
(By F. M. Huggins.)

The Baptists of this state and the
south are now on the last lap OF
their IS MILLION Campaign, which
was launched five years ago and has
proven to be a breath of life to all
the institutions fostered by that de-
nomination at home and abroad. In
a far more adequate way than eber
before as a result of the Campaign,
the Baptists have been able to take
care of their state, home and foreign
Mission work, their schools and col
1eges, orphanages and hospitals and
their aged and infirm ministers.
Up to September 5, 1924 the chur-
ches of the Three Forks Association
paid to the IS Million Campaign 18-
924.33. This leaves balance of ST.
699.O5 to be raised by December 1
if we are to reach our pledge of
$21, ,6?3.3S.
During this five year period the
growth of the denomination has been
phenomenal, having baptized mill
ion new converts in the Southland,
100000 of them in North Carolina
and having increased the membership
on foreign fields more than 100 per
cent.
North Carolina Baptists have set
for themselves the task Of raising
more than a billion dollars from now
until December 81 when the rs Mil
lion campaign will end and the new
1925 progra mwill begin. To that end
end every Baptist church is being or
xanized out to the last man. The week
scf Nov. $3.50 has been designated
"Completion Week." when heroic
i effort will be made to give every
individual Baptist in the state a
chance to do his best to help finish
the task in worthy way. The week
following, Nov. 30-Dec. II, the same
"victory Teams" will go afield again
to get pledges for the 1925 program
A million dollars, exclusive of what
will be given to the orphanage is the
goal set for North Carolina Baptists
for the next year, this to be divided
equally between Statewide and the
South-wide interests. The objective
sought, which is believed would in
sure the continued success Of all the
causes fostered is "every member
contributing every week to every
cause according to his ability"
