If the shot is a little too long
for a mashie and a little too
short for a mid-iron is it best to
force the mashie or play a half
shot with an iron?
e., . Answered by
VIM. MELHORN
"Ths St. Louis Younsster." whose
batterins courage and souhd in all
ths tournaments he enters.
4 shot is always best played we'll
within yourself. Forcing a shot may
have a tendency to put you off on
other shots in your round. The half
shot with the iron Is by far. the
best. At times a player may be
compelled to force the mashie: that
Is, the shot to the green may call
for it If there is trap directly in
front of the green or some other OBJ
stacle is in the way.

Cars of Aluminium,

One OF the Swiss electric tramway
companies has built cars of aluminium,
says the New York Herald. one rea-
son for using this metal is that the
weight of the car is much lessened
and another point is that the painting
OF the car lasts much longer. 1t was
found that cars built with iron plates
soon showed ruSting and the paint
suffered much from this. In Zurich,
where the method is being tried, this
Is an important point, as the cars are
painted in a light color. In the first
place the metal was used for the roofs
of the cars, and the result was so sat
isfactory by reason of the absence
of rust that it was decided to go
further and to employ ii for the body
covering of the car and part of the
flooring. A metal known as duralum-
mum is used and ii has small amount
OF copper used so as TO make it harder.

4 (By the Associated Negro Press)
Chicago, Ill.-Official announce
ment by Marshall Field and Com
pany. Chicago, of the purchase of
Rothchild and Company department
store for a consideration OF $1,000
600 brings to mind the fact that
while Fields is q worldwide institu-
ton, seemingly from the beginning,
1t has been a steadfast policy Of the
institution not to employ colored
help. This policy is contrasted with
that Of the great John Wanamaker
stores of Philadelphia, where colored
employees have been-given wide op-
portunity. Recently the r. C. Ogden
band Of the Wanamaker store won q
splendid band contest. - .s
Colored Chicago has made all OF its
tremendous progress in the face of
the Field policy, Tribune policy and
others that have sought to deny Just
opportunity to Colored America.

One of the biggest and most sue

City was the first breakfast ball given
by the Minneapolis Clef club at the
South Side Auditorium from 1880
A. M. to Z A. M. New Years morning.
The Auditorium was packed to ca
pacity soon after the doors opened.
Music by Moore's Town Talk band,
with fourteen pieces for the occasion,
was enjoyed by the patrons of the
smooth floor. Noisemakers, hats and
balloons were furnished as long as
they lasted. The late comers were
forced to look enviously at the dec
grated head gears of the early ar
rivals. Breakfast was served at an
appropriate hour by the lady mem
bers of the Clef club. The occasion
was highly appreciated by the patrons
and every one hopes to frolic at an
other similar dance in the near fu-

Organize Club of Young Men

The Urban league, which Is pro-
noting an intensive observation Of
Thrift Week, Jan. 13-20th, has an
nounced that the slogan Of the week
will be Own Your Home. Mr.. Carter
Of the Urban league stated that "the
most important problem facing the
colored people Of st. Paul today is
the problem of housing. 1t Is al
ways a dangerous symptom when peo-
pie lower their standard of living in
order to secure housing within the
limits of their earning power. Today
in st. Paul there is a tendency to go
to unsanitary and untenantable
houses in order to escape high
rents" 20 .,... '.s
During thrift week we will show
the people various methods of financ-
ing homes as well as other important
matters pertaining to thrift.
