Wilfrid Is a great student of golf, and he doesn't ' mind enlightening you on its manifold mysteries. This time he was talking to Walter as Well as to me about Walter's putt? lng. : ' , - - . s "You've tightened up, Walter," said Wilfrid., "When you were putting so well, a few years, ago, you rapped the ball firmly and crisply, but your stance and your, holding and swlngj ln g of the club were ell beautlfullir relaxed left foot well forward, weight!111'3 was grand putter. And this mostly on that foot; everything ap'-i8 bls advice good for anybody parently natural and easy. Now your mayb. Walter, good for you: swing is looser, it, seems,' but your ",.'Be a rag,' said, Willie, 'and" hit whole system is tighter." ' '. I1'-" " ' ' "Something like that," admitted ' "He meant a rag a limp rag," sup Sir Walter, somewhat gloomily. P'enwnted Wilfrid. , '''And.'

' ' '' -"'""""' V HIT OF ADVICE. "In putting." proceeded Wilfrid, who now assumed the manner of a professor of science lecturing to a.tjiird base position in the Athletics; class, "In putting, a much better infield without a severe struggle, guide would be Willie Anderson. ) despite the early effectiveness of the wuo uue Ml gull. X. blUUIh lb a Ull epigram." 1 "' ' Wilfrid went on at some, length to amplify the raggy' theory:' It kept you irom, stopping tne MUt ne-sara, lng or pushing the ball off- the line. Because a rag, 'a' limp rig , naturally' would not yank.. trie "putter, off' the line of the stroke, once It had. been, properly started. '"' 1 ""'"' ' yjiixii: A PUTTER, There may be'sbmcthlng in lt too. I'm always -ready' to consider golden maxims of the older masters. And Willie was' a master,' certainly.'

In nursery, school . and . kinder! garten children do all sorts, of . thing? that seem hazardous to the unin formed bystander. A mere toddler cUmbsi the steps of a small slidei lifts one Bhort leg after tho other from step to step, gets over the difficult spot at tho top, seats himself and comes flying down, a small woolen bundle, to landwlth a iiptle thud and pick him self up' with a look of pleased sur prise. He goes down lying on his ( back, ach sitting, hoping on- TJLT nXZ t r1H u rf t hurt , ' He uses the., teeter-totter and very, seldom does he fall and hurt him self. For the teeter-totter Is low, and his ,lttle partner has1 learned that one does not get off suddenly without giving t fair warnjng to the child, at tlieother end, rr. i .u. . no Bwiiiga iiiun 111 me wiiig uui waits until it comes to a stop before ho gets off. ' ' . Anyone watching these tiny, ath- lctes wonders at their skill, their poise and the absence of catastro- phes. The explanation lies ;ln ."'the fact that every child lias been . most care fully taught how to handle himself. He was taught a bit at a time how to manage his body, what things he might' do and what things he must never do. He was permitted to take only small risks. Whenever he tried something new there was always an acult at hand to prevent an ac cident. ' Children using play apparatus in their own, back yard would be equally skillful and equally safe if their mothers would teach them in this way. Drys (Sain A Bit In P r o hibition - Poll This Week Eight states are voting more than four to one wet while Kansas Is the only ono voting bone dry as over 500-, 000 moro ballots arc tabulated ln this week's returns ' to The Literary Di gest's prohibition poll, according to figures published ln tomorrow's Is sue of the periodical.

Eaty to Tranilate Speaking of j. Ur and II. P. Me, the Boston Transcript recalls John Hole, who signed his name by writ ing the letter J and then punching a hole ln the paper. Perhaps we should add the woman who signed her noma "L'Enfer." Even flrst year Kronen stuilents would see at once that she was Helen 'French. Minneapolis Journal. Unforttqata Youngsier uenerauy-.tiie expression, "nn nn derprlvlleged child" refers to a child who because of- poverty of the par ents or because of Inferior living, conditions or. both has not had the proper food or environment. It does not necessarily refer to a child who has been without educational opportunities, but means rather the iacK of-opportunity for proper rear ing and training.
