Dimpncn la the greatest cause of trouble with Golf Cluba. Not only does It affect the glue which la uaed on wooden cluba at the Joint with the shaft, but no matter how well sea soned the hickory and persimmon may be, the wood will absorb damp ness, causing swelling and warping. This is true of all woods generally, but especially true of hickory. There fore, Clubs should be wiped after us ing in the rain or dew. If the !tnln Bhows signs of wearing. Clubs should be rubbed with linseed oil and given a coat of shellac, which serves to keep out the dampness. The pitched twlr.e which covers the glue Joint In wooden Clubs should also be kept well shellaced. Further: Cluba ehoula not be thrown in a haphazard man ner where they will be subject to dry heat or they will warp Into the shape into which their weight draws them When Cluba are not in use, rub well with linseed oil and lay them out flat. .

Deputy County Clerk Quinlan, the "cupid" of the Courthouse, held a los ing hand yesterday when the Circuit Court granted seven divorces, de faulted several others and accepted an other divorce suit for trial.
