Well, Sir, I've read more than once
of deaths occurring on golf courses
I had an acquaintance who met that
distressing fate. Of course, don't
know Just what caused the fatality;
whether it was from over-exertlon or
from elation stronger than the vital
organ-the heart-could stand, or
whether it was a mere incident,
bound to happen; and, that it occur
red on golf course, was no more re-
markable than if it had taken place
in the quietness of the home.
Now, I understand that the subject
of death is not an attractive one and,
mentioned in connection with such an
attractive game as golf, it becomes
doubly unattractive. However, little
warning held out to ones friends and
fellow citizens should not be misunder-
stood. It only indicates that interest
in their welfare which should be ap-
preciated, not despised.
may be little slow getting to it,
but what I am trying to reach is this:
one of Pocomoke's enthusiastic golf
fiends went down to the Virginia court
last week, and he was having good
time making each hole in four or ten
over par. After a specially fine
stroke-for him-he landed in trap
about 80 feet from the green. Well,
Sir, he saw himself using up about six
or seven good honest-to-goodness
strokes holing out. YEARLY and
drearily he dragged his feet to the
little rubber pill. He looked longingly
at the flag on the green, and wished
he hadn't come. He set himself to
SCOOP the ball out of the sand, clos
his eyes, and let go. He opened them
just in time to see the sphere land on
the green, go dribbling along, and sud-
denly drop into the cup as straight as
if he had carried it there and care
fully placed it therein.
