Beverly Hills.-Well all I know
is just what I read in the papers
and what hear over the Radio,
and bother if that old Radio amt
getting a beating. The politicians
are giving that poor little old mic
raphone one of its toughest seasons
since it's birth. was just sitting
listening in like millions of you
have been all Fall.
When the country ought to be
working it's just listening. Even us
that are fortunate enough to have
kind of a job, why we knock OFF
to listen. Well one remember
was Ogden Mills. Ogden took over
the Treasury when Mr.. Mellon took
over the business of introducing
"Debutantees" to George and
Mary.
Men in America live, hope and
die trying to become Presidents. If
they can't make it they accept the
BOBBY prize and go to the Senate.
But women just live, hope and die
happy, if they can be presented at
the Court of st. James.
Well as I was saying before, one
of the ones I tuned in on the other
week was Ogden Mills. He was out
our way sprinkling some tacks in
the Democratic road. Ogden is the
first man I ever made a political
speech for and the last one. When
got through it he was running for
Congress in New York City and the
audience coulden't tell If I was
talking for Ogden, or Aimee Nc
Pherson, so they pronounced my
speech pretty much of a bust. But
they elected Ogden, the only Re
publican candidate elected to Con-
gress from the great city Of New
York. (And there is dozens of EN-
from there). At the time made
the speech I dident know that he
was running on the Republican side
but young Teddy Roosevelt asked
me to go say few words for Og-
den, and have always been glad
I did, for he has made good. al
ways feel that he is one man that
I sponsored that lived up to it.
He is awful rich and got an aw-
full nice wife, and she is a good
fellow. She comes into Jack Gar
ners office and we had political
kowtow. Mills is wealthy man
and always has been, but he really
tries, and does render some fine
service to his Country, and espec-
tally to his party. Even the Demo
Gratis say that he has made a fine
treasurer, not that the Democrats
know much about handling money
but Mills has impressed EN- ire
mendously. He can count the
treasury money without looking at
it longingly.
Well he come out to California
few weeks ago and I wanted to
see him and Mrs. Mills, but the Re
publicans were around him so
thick, that I knew would be dis
injecting myself for days after
wards, so I dident get to see him,
and I dident have a Republican
registration card so I couldent get
to even hear him. But I went home
and got him on the Radio. I missed
Is minutes of him, for Amos and
Andy was on, but the minute Amos
stopped singing is I Blue" why ]
went right over onto Ogden. He is
a mild hammered man in private
life but when he gets on that diving
board in front of that micraphone,
why he goes hog wild.

NEWS ITEMS OF 1776

Items from old newspapers are of inter-
est to many, and there are few from the
Massachusetts, Sun, published in Worchest-
er on July II, 1776, the front page of which
was devoted to the Declaration of Independ-
ence, then less than two weeks old. A news
letter from New York said:
"On Wednesday last the Declaration of
Independence was read at the head of each
brigade of the Continental Army at or near
New York, and everywhere received with
loud huzzas and utmost demonstration of
Joy. The same evening the equestrian statue
of George III was by the sons of freedom laid
PROSTATE in the dirt. The lead wherewith
this monument was made is to be run into
bullets to assimilate with the brains of our
adversaries, who, to gain peppercorn, have
lost an empire"
A resolution by the House of Represen-
tatives of Watertown requested that people
of that colony donate their leaden window
weights for the making of bullets.
Among the notices was one stating that
there were considerable numbers of prison
ers in the town, who were willing to go out
to service if proper persons should appear to
hire them"
Delinquent subscribers were problem
in those days, as they have been ever since,
it appears from card from the publisher,
who thanked those readers who paid up, adj
ding, HE begs that such as have not paid
him would be so considerable as to think of
the great disadvantage it must be to him to
have so many small sums in different nanos,
therefore would now request that they would
pay their respective balances, which will
greatly oblige their humble servant, Isaiah
Thomas"
After 156 years good many publishers
may still find Mr.. Thomas courteous sug-
gestion quite applicable to present conditions.

LAST Sc ARE NOW
PHYSICAL ORDEAL
Lenqthened Schedule Also
Would Eliminate Early
starting Times.
BY FRANCIS J. POWERS.

~HICAGO, July 15.-There is
much to commend in
" Charlie Halls suggestion
to the United States Golf
Association that future national
open championships be played
over a four-day span instead of
the traditional three, a custom
that originated with the cham
pionship back in the nineties and
never has been modernized.
The playing of 36 holes on the
final day of the open champion
ship too often makes for an en-
durance contest rather than a
display of skill. This is particu-
larly true when the open is played
under the torrid conditions that
turned Interlachen in 1890 and
Inverness in 1881 into fiery fur
naces rather than pleasant golf
courses.
Playing the national open over
four day period also would permit OF
more equalization of the starting times.
Few players like to start early in the
Gay, when there is dew on the greens
and the possibilities Of a high breeze.
II the final 36 holes were spread over
two days. with the field reduced to so
contestants or thereabouts, 1t would not
De necessary to start any player at
either an extremely early or late hour.
THE prolongation of the champion
i ship an extra day also would en-
able the galleries to secure a good
look at the stars without the mad
scramble that always takes place on
the final day under the present scheme
Of play. And. Of course, the gate re-
ceipts-in which the U. 8. G. A. is
vitality interested-probably would be in
creased
The more personal angle in the writ
ers voting for Mr. Halls suggestion is
on behalf of a pair Of feet that have
developed permanent aches and angles
from IL years pursuit Of champions and
near champions in national opens 1t
is no picnic tc race SO holes on the
final day through mob that needs only
change OF costume to fit perfectly into
some Roman drama
I believe Mr.. Hall was thinking slight
ly Of his personal comfort when he ven
tured the suggestion to the U. S. G. A
AS president Of the Professional Golf
ers' Association, Mr.. Hall always is pres
ent at the national open to give his or
ganiZation a bit of official representa-
ton. Mr. Hall, being in the 40s and in
clined to bit of obesity, probably finds
it difficult to combat SO holes and a
milling gallery all in one day. Mr.. Hall
will find the chroniclers Of the royal
and ancient game lined up solidly be-
hind him in his suggestion.
THE U. S. G. A. officials who handled
i the galleries at Fresh Meadows
likely will look with favor on the
new thought. Mr. Robert Cutting, the
