tioie by Grantland Rice describing
the famous 41-hole match won by
Chick Evans from Reggie Lewis at
the Engineers Club in 1920. As
read the story I was reminded Of
the tremendous Transformation In
Evans appearance when Lewis
missed his putt to halve the hole
and win the match.
As Chick walked slowly onto that
last green he looked to be hopeless
~ beaten, and his manner showed
plainly that he thought so. All the
while Lewis was preparing to play
his chip from behind the green,
Evans was pacing to and fro across
the lower edge. He fidgeted with
his putter and with his cap, unable
to stand still. But when Lewis
missed his putt and the match was
even, Evans seemed to be struck
with an electric charge. If his tired
body was exhausted before, there
was no sign Of 1t visible as he came
rushing up the slope to the first
tee. Chick was all eagerness to
win now that he had been given
another chance.

It Is possible that some Of the bic

the Derby at one dollar each than
one spectator at two dollars. Once

FLUSH THE KIDNEYS

No man or woman can make a

casionally, says a well-known au-
thority. Eating too much rich food
creates acids, which excite the kid

from the strain, get sluggish and
fail to filter the waste and poisonS
from the blood. Then we get sick.
rheumatism, headaches, liver trou-
bic, nervousness, dizziness, sleep
1essness and urinary disorders often
come from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache
in the kidneys, or your back hurts,
begin drinking a quart of water
each day, also get about four ounces
Of Jad Salts from any pharmacy;
take tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast, and in a
few days your kidneys may act fine.
This famous salts is made from
the acid of grapes and lemon juice,
combined with lithia, and has been
used for years to flush and stimu-

they no longer cause irritation, thus

Women Take
office Graft
EUen as Men
BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON
Mrs. Knapp, who has held high
Office in New York and who has
recently had charges of embezzle-
ment of public funds filed against
her, is real new woman.
This case, no doubt, will be widely
commented on in the press of the
Nation. Editors will deplore and
readers will resent the advent of
women into the political field. There
will be one vast 81 told you So"
ascending from the male contin-
gent.
Because for some unknown rea-
son, it was generally supposed that
when women became contenders for
public Office graft and dishonesty
would fly out of the window. We
ourselves are largely responsible for
that idea.
Made Foolish Promises
The cohorts of suffrage went up
and down the land making all sorts
of unbusiness-like promises about
the millennium to follow when
women took charge of things, quite
disregarding the fact that woman
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1927-11-01

has never yet attained perfection
and that she loves nothing so much
as initiating the men.
Hitherto, this has been hard on
us. Personally, 1 have never been
able to see why we should be de-
prived of the extra emoluments of
Office any more than the men. 1t
is surely our right, as well as theirs,
to line our safety deposit boxes
while the opportunity offers.
Burdened Wills Idea
We have been a little timid, how
ever, about stepping out in competi-
ton with the clever male politician
The most of us who have been
honored by the voters confidence
have lived along on our meager
salaries and worked our heads off
trying to give service. In our stupid
feminine way, we have attempted
to live up to all the promises that
we're made in our behalf. We have
looked on political tasks in an
altristic light and been burdened
with the idea that our country de-
served the finest service we could
give.
Gradually, the example of the
men is swerving us from our
cowardly course. AS we have
watched them make away with vast
sums, as we have read the story OF
their indictments, their trials, their
acquittals and paroles, we have
glimpsed the possibilities Of politics.
AS we have peeped into some of the
