How much golf can the aver
age woman play without over
taxing her strength?
By GLENNA COLLECT
Former Woman's Champion

Very few women make it prac-
tics to play over Is holes Of golf a
day. This Is done easily without
overtaxing their strength. Some wo-
men golfers, however, play So holes
occasionally in order to acquaint
themselves with that length of play.
This is done so that they will be
prepared for such game In case
tournament play demands It. Also,
after playing SO holes, the IL hole
round seems exceptionally short In
comparison. This adds certain
amount Of confidence to their game
when playing the shorter course.

STORY OF EARLY
DAYS In ARIZONA
IN RECENT POST

Will G. Barnes, well known to
cattlemen throughout all of North
ern Arizona, who, according to
local pioneers, has bunked and
slept with them many nights, is
the author of "The Cowboy and
His Songs" an article that appears
in a recent issue of the Satur-
day Evening Post. Mr.. Barnes
rode the ranges in this section
many years, first as a cattleman
and then as ranger. He is now
connected with the forest service
in Washington, D. c., and since
going to the east has written sew
eral western stories.
The article in the Post is illus
trated with several pictures of local
interest, one of them being the
shack belonging to the Aztec Cat
tie company that was located south
of Joseph City in the sos. An
other is of the side of cabin that
is covered with different brands
that had been burned into the logs.
The old brand of Tom South known
to the cowboys as the Pigpen is

Why Not a Pillow ?
By MARGI HOPKINS.

DILLOWS for the davenport, pill
lows for the porch, and pillows
for the floor corners-wherever
there are pillows, a comfortable
and seductive atmosphere is found.
In fact, pillows hold the secret of
more than a few attractively fur
nished homes and for this time of
year there are many pretty COM
'binations to be used.
For the drab overstuffed daven-
port which seemed so cozy and sat-
isfactory through the winter, there
is obviously something needed to
give it brighter note-a note that
will help to bring the gaiety of the
trees and flowers inside, and with
this end in view, one may make
all sorts of CHEEKY pillows from
odds and ends of silk, net, and
organdie
A particularly pretty little pill
low may be made in diamond shape
of light leaf-green silk covered
with heavy cream-colored tuscan
net and edged with ruffles of light
/ green organdie. Such a pillow
! creates most refreshing atmos-
phere, especially when found in
company with others similarly made
but of different shapes and colors.
Heart shapes are very popular, and
/ flat round pillows, ruffled with
narrow lace, are most effective.
Light blues, pinks, Iavenders and
] yellows-in fact, all the delicate
cOlOrS, make the most Summery
and attractive backgrounds to be
used in combination with the net.
f! Oxford net as well as tuscan is
often used, and since it sometimes
is embroidered with small colored
dots or squares, it's effectiveness is
even greater. Striped Diana cloth
without the net is very popular,
] too, for davenport pillows
The sun room and the summer
porch offer more opportunity for
pillows, but here it is necessary
to look for something more durable
than silk and something darker
than lavenders and light blues.
I For these pillo---s very pleas
ing result may he cbtained by
using strips of plain G. ored rep in
rich dark reds. royal blues or
aonber grays, in combination with
trips of varicolored flowered ere.
tonne, The porch swing, the
chairs and the floor corners al
will welcome q co!o~ful pillow
such as can be made II this way
There are many attractive wary
prints, too, that are used for sliI
covers and pillow and porct
swing upholstery. The colors il
these materials are scnproof anf
the cloth itself is yer.v durable 4
., easing effect with t.'ese may be
al}2d by making them perfectl!
plain or trimmed wi.l bands o
plain colored rep whicA harmonic
with tie predominat-ng color il

plainly recognizable on the wall,
as is the L. E. x. bar brand used
by Pollick in the herd run by Gene
Holder at the present time. Charles
Wyricks bar-W that he uses on
his horses is included in the coll
lection, as well as the Hashknife
brand, the M o of Johnny Paulsel
and many others.
In one place the article refers to
Holbrook where ''the boys were
celebrating the departure of the
last trainload of Hashknife steers
for the season." and there are
many other references made
throughout the article to local
places.
At the close of the article the
following poem is printed, accom-
panied by a note that the author
is not known:
THE COWBOY.
Oh, man there lives on the West
ern plain
With a ton of fight and an ounce
of brain,
Who herds the cattle and robs the
train
And goes by the name of cowboy.
He laughs at death and scoffs at
life;
He feels unwell unless in some
strife;
He fights with a pistol, a rifle or
knife,
Does this reckless and rollicky
cowboy.
He sets up the drinks when he
hasn't a cent;
He'll fight like devil with any
young gent.
Whenever he makes love he goes
to it hell bent.
Oh, he is some lover, this
cowboy.
He shoots out the lights in the
dancing hall;
He gets shot up in drunken
brawl;
Some coroner's jury then ends it
all,
And that's the last of the
cowboy.

An advance of soc to 75c in prac-

any showing of dry feed took the
market this week into a new high
position for the year. Prime year
lings sold up to $3.50; medium

$10.00@12.00 and straight grassers

Lamb prices broke sharply this

This is probably only temporary

were quoted at $13.50@1460 and

few sheep offered brought steady
prices, ewes $4.00@6.50 and weth-

LOUISE SCOTT
WINS CENTRAL
0RATORY TEST

Judges of the preliminary county
oratOrical contest found it a diff
cult problem TO make the final de.
cision ON the orationS given yes,
terday morning during the assembly
al the high school.
That none of the contestants had
ever given Orations in public be-
fore, would never have been sus-
pected, as each showed unusual
stage presence and poise.
After almost a half days delibc-
ration, the judges, consisting of
Judge Franklin J. Cole, Judge S,
Church and Mrs. Ross Crane chose
Louise Scott as winner and she will
90 to Brawley tomorrow night to
represent Central in the Countrywide
contest.
Chrysta Potter, the first speak
er, chose as her subject ."Ameri-
canism' by Henry Cabot Lodge
She brought ont forciblv what it
means to be an American and stress
ed the thought that time cannot
help but solve the financial and
political problems that face Ameri-
ca, but that the dominant thing we
must solve now is the social prob
lem. Miss Potter is a popular stu
dent in the high school, who took
heavy character part in this
years Junior play.
Leo Sawyer, that popular little
athlete of Central high who has
helped bring "home the bacon =
in so many athletic contests, chose
as his theme the oration by Theo-
dore Roosevelt on Amerieanism.
His main thought, splendidly deliv-
cred, was TO the effect that if we
are to be true Americans we must
not be afraid of work, must be
courageous, honest and above all
have common sense.
Louise Scott, the last speaker,
chose for her Grafton William
Gradv's 'The New South, which
gave her ample opportunity TO dis
play her dramatic ability. She
told how, following the Civil War,
the south so bravely set to work
and with rapid development soon
made the battle fields green with
