life from the accounts of train

cipal news printed there about our
country.
"That day has passed. Since 1916,
due to our increased cable facilities
and the reduction of cable tolls, as
we'll as a keen desire for more in
formation the amount of news ex-
changed between the Americas has
been increased greatly and its

n OOKIHG forward into 1927, the
prospect for the coming golf
season about Washington finds
1 few changes probable. either
in the competitive field or in
the lineup of the clubs. No new
clubs are contemplated. so far as is
known, and there is little prospect
for additional links outside of the
new course of the Congressional
Country Club. Two years ago there
was a movement in the Indian Spring
Club to construct another 1S-hole
layout across the road from the pres
ent course, but nothing has been
heard Of it for some time.
Congressional is going ahead with
construction of it's new layout to
make the big Bethesda club the only
private club about Washington with
two 16.hOle courses.
Even the public courses, which last
year were expanding to take the
great crowds which thronged them
in 1924, have halted, although semi
public course near Fort Washington
lis in process of construction.
George ]. Voigt, the outstanding
golfer of this year, seems destined
for another successful sea son. lie
will find more opposition iuring the
Spring season, for Roland K. Mac
Kenzie will be home in time TO play
in several of the Spring Journeys.
Voigt beat him twice during tie 1926
campaign, bat Mackenzie seems the
only man around Washington who
has the shots to trim the Bannock-
burn iceberg.
The District amateur champion
ship probably will go to the Con
gressiona1 Country Club and the
Midle Atlantic title event to Con-
gressional, Baltimore Country Club
or Norfolk Country Club. The Dis
trict Junior championship may go to
the Washington Golf and4/Country
Club, from which Frank *. Roesch,

He is more than y mug hunting czar:
To be known as golfer you don't have to

But you do have to love every blade of the

Every inch of the fairways and greens;
And ii you don't take care of the course rs
You are not what "a good golfer" means
Just watch good golfer some day when
And behold what he does as he plays;
He never goes on leaving diyots about

Then note when the ball has been played
That he never unthinkingly turns from the

Till he's covered the footprints he made,
You may brpg of your scores and may boast
of your skill.
You may think as q golfer you're good:
But IL footprints you make in the traps you
