and we know that fire-making is one
OF the Oldest of all arts practiced by
human beings.
Forest fires, caused by lightning,
probably gave men their first knowl-
edge of fire, but during very early
period they learned to make fire by
means of friction"
Rub your hands together, and you
have friction which warns them. Rub
two pieces Of wood together, pressing
hard, and you will make the wood warm
Unless you have been taught secrets of
the process, it is not likely that you will
be able to make fire by rubbing wood
on wood, but in early times there were
persons who learned the way to do that
Even in modern times. explorers have
found savage people who could make
fire only In that way. Among such

~ NE thing that every one has to
do at times is to wait. 1t may
be that the waiting is for a
" person who is late, or 1t may
be for things such as a train.
Whatever it Is, waiting is common
experience. The time may be wasted
or It may be used to advantage. This
depends somewhat ON conditions, but
even more on being prepared for such
times. When one waits for trolley
or q bus there Is little one can do about
t. since the moments are not consecu-
tive, but taken in small doses, hours
apart, perhaps. These segregated mo-
ments are wasted, although necessarily
%, except when the day is fair and the
waiting place is pleasant and not on
some congested thoroughfare. Just to
be breathing the pure fresh air in the
out-of-doors helps lid the moments Of
their wastefu1ueSs.
The periods OF waiting which can be
robbed Of their usefulness should be
taken advantage Of. BY 50 doing not

Amateur and Open Championship and Brit
ish Amateur and Open champion in one
year.
ical points in a golf swing
where sometimes it is easier to
do what is wrong than what is
right, and where a mistake leads to
confusion I have long ago given up
any idea that one point can be of vastly
more Importance than any other. Al
ways the one under consideration seems
the most vital, because one sees the
utter futility of trying to hit the ball
properly without the correct action
here. But after all we come back to the
fact that a chain is no stronger than
its weakest link.
So I will not say that the start down
from. the top, the embarkation upon the
hitting stroke, Is most important. But
certainly 1t Is critical point, where
the proper action Is not as obvious as
we fnd 1t in some other places, and
after which, in the increasing speed
Of the stroke, 1t is most diflcult to re-
trieve an error.
TINE old idea, which has been utter
ly disproven by the high-speed
motion picture camera, was that
the downward motion was originated
by throw" of the clubhead involving
the initial use of the hands and wrists
There were a number of reasons why
this would not work, but the chief one
was that the power in the cock" Of
the wrists was used up before it could
possibly do any good Obviously the
capable players who promulgated this
