The Once Over
THE PEE-wEE GOLF CRAZE

Copyright, 1880, by The Associated Newspapers)
All important street corners in the United States
not occupied by gas stations. radio supply nuts and
cigar stores are now being taken over for tabloid golf
courses. This new game. putting an l8-hols golf
course on q 100-foot lot, has swept the country as
has nothing since the crossword puzzle and Spanish
influenza.
Some unknown genius decided that the trouble
with orthodox golf was that 1t required hiking.
He thought that what America needed was golf
courses where the public could get everything golf az
forded except sore heels, arguments with dumb cad
dies and a constant bombardment from the four
some behind. And the results have shown that he
was right.
There are in some communities two and three pee
wee golf courses to a block. They have been a great
boon to undeveloped real estate. The immediate
popularity OF the demi-tasse golf course has puzzled
some people. but the explanation is simple: walking is
practically abolished.
When a beginner takes up Tom Thumb golf he
knows that he can 60 ahead without buying $4,000
worth Of stock and that it is okay for him to play
without first producing three-character testimonials
and a check for $50 for six months dues.
Another big appeal of tabloid golf rests in the fact
it can be played without a wardrobe, a case OF Scotch
and a bag Of matched clubs. The old blue business
suit is entirely proper for all strokes and nothing can
happen to you that will make q cold shower neces-
sary.
If the fellow behind you drives a ball into the small
Of your back he will be close enough for you to rec
ognize him without appealing to the house committee
for help.
On these miniature links nobody has to walk six
miles before he can decide whether he likes the
course. Every hole is visible from the first tee. Gus
toners can take EN- or leave EN-. You're a member
Of the club for one round only and can't be suspended
for not replacing divots.
The lost golf ball becomes a thing Of the past.
The proprietor supplies them. anyhow. and If one goes
astray all you do is notify the management. That's
the answer TO a buffers prayer.
More power to the tabloid linksi You can play them
all your life and never get a letter notifying you Of a
$50 assessment.

Strike Period Note in
Restoring Home of Lee

The restored home Of Gen. Robert
E. Lee will be one Of a fine old
southern family of the period rather
than a large museum of antiquities.
Major General Dewitt, the new
quartermaster general, says the work
Is being vigorously carried on by the
War department, with every possible
effort being made to get authorita-
tive information. The department
wants the restoration to capture
those times when 1t was occupied by
the Lee and Custis families.
In addition to providing for the
restoration Of the building proper,
congress contemplated complete re
furnishing and authorized acceptance
of furniture donations. 1t has been
definitely decided, General Dewitt
says, to accept only genuine orig
inals of the proper period. An ac-
cepted article will carry the donors
name.

down on her again. She felt that she
was going to faint. She could not hold
on any longer-there was nothing with
which to cling-she no longer cared.
The great bulk Of the bus was NOV
ing down toward her-gigantic, menac-
ing. She felt that 1t would crush her,
and moved back little on the side
walk, her Mortified eyes fixed upon the
monster which seemed to swell and
grow, and then, strangely. to rise from
the pavement and to turn slowly and
gracefully about in the air. She knew
it was delirium, she knew that the bus
could not act that way. But her
knowledge could not pierce her fear Of
confusion. And then the bus lunged
at her-the blindness came down again,
and Ernestlne, alone and very Ill, fell
down upon the pavement Of the boule-
ward with q soft and plaintive moan.

Shift to Cite. Checked

The farm-to-city shift of popula-
ton, which in 1926 had given indica-
tons of reaching alarming proper
lions, has fallen away until during
1929 the loss to the farms was only
100000.
1t is estimated that 1,S76,0O0 per-
sons left farms to reside in the cit
les, but during the same period 1851
600 left the cities for the farms.
Helping to balance the shift were the
631 900 births on the farms, with only
2S1.000 deaths. During the peak
year of 1926 more than 100000 per-
sons left the farms for the cities.

Advises Use of Slogan to Overcome Detection

Slogans are advocated as an aid to
a healthy mental outlook by James d.
Weinland, who considers their effect
and lists a number in an article in
Hygeia Magazine.
A good slogan can brighten our
whole horizon, fill US with courage and
be an emotional stimulus. 1t directs
and holds the attention to bracing
thought. For instance. when man is
down in the dumps it is comforting to
think that "the men who try to do
something and fail are infinitely bet
ter than those who try to do nothing
and succeed or that "there are more
chances and opportunities in life than
we know"
There are slogans hidden away in
the worlds literature that fit almost
