Loftis gained fame and wealth as the originator of the Jewelry mail or der business and was widely known as "a good fellow." He was regarded as a ready spender and always carried large sums of money. The diamond merchant's marital troubles, his quarrels' with his brother and his escapades in the night life of Chicago gave Loftis a picturesque ca reer. In 1907 Loftis was shot by his brother in a quarrel over partnership and two years later was expelled from one of Chicago's best known clubs be cause he slapped his wife's face while on a dance floor. Later they were di vorced and Loftis handed her a 8125, 000 check and she left for California.

Will Minority Party Leaders J)omInate Majority 'amesl 1 BY A. L. SHULTZ. That fatal "ir in politics is the dis ease germ which is today working thru the veins of candidates and their friends In 2,600 voting precincts in Kansas. Next Tuesday the voters give their decision in the seventh state-wide primary held by the parties for nomi nation of all officers from road over seer to United States senator. Several bitter fights have been waged ln the state at large as well as ln congres sional and senatorial districts. Yet to day there is .a fear that the big farm vote may stay at home and give the decision to the towns. Casting pf a town vote with light returns from the rural districts may decide several important contests. Tlrere ura deep rooted feeling that the labor vote will get to the polls next Tuesday even tho it is necessary to call ambulances or go on crutches. The Nonpartisan League, as well as that branch of the crop raising constitu ency which alligns itself with the farmer union-labor crowd, is also ex pected to define its choice at the polls. But there is a question as to whether Mister and Missus Average Voter will suspend business long enough to mark a ballot. As tho the mountain of uncertain ties were not already high enough, there is the fear that minority party members may dominate some of the majority party nominations. The beautiful theory of the primary works well 364. days in the year.- But next Tuesday is the 365th day. And next w eanesaay morning any number of warm and devoted friends of the pri mary may awaKen to learn the results of the previous day's unrestricted and Indiscriminate voting.

There is but one real E-emocrat contest in the state the governorship and the incentive is to demand Ke-i publican ballots. Extent of Tuesdays voting is very largely speculative. 'At this time it uuuunu. people will vote in the Republican primaries and perhaps not more than 25,000 or 30,000 in the Democrat arimaries. Two years ago Senator Arthur Cap per beat the torn toms in an effort to get otlt a big farmer vote. That year 173.471 voted for senator in the con test in which Senator Capper was one of the candidates. There were 162, 683 votes in the Allen-Brewster-Mor-gan Troutman governorship fight, while in a three cornered fight for secretary of state only 130,410 votes were cast a slump of more than 43.000 below senator. The Democrats polled 38,590 votes In the Thompson Marble senatorial fight. Yet two years ago there were per haps 60,000 Kansans in war service. These men have been mustered out of service j. iirii iciuiii me vuiiiiK ranks may overcome the stay at home farmer vote.

Cash wheat s off 36 cents since Monday and futures bave declined 54 cents from the highest point of July 15.

The court of Industrial relations will bo to Pittsburg next week to reopen hearings and investigations regarding production in the Crawford county field. Special agentsi are1 in the field today. A demand that the. temporary restraining order against the calling of a strike be made a permanent injunc tion will be presented to Judge Curran in Pittsburg next week. This program was agreed upon Fri day night at a conference which Gov ernor Allen held with members of the labor court and Richard J. Hopkins, attorney general. The governor then issued a statement -summarising the situation in the coal fields as de scribed in press dispatches. State officials asserted they would refrain from- state operation so long I as public necessity was not involved.' Should conditions become critical. however,- there is a belief that the1 state will again seek to operate the I iriines. In the meantime the state will I seek relief thru tire injunction.

Lewis ordering them to do so, union officials indicated to day. President Frank Farrington in a jovial mood over the turn events have taken, declared he probably would have nothing to do with the Lewis order. He said the order undoubtedly would go direct to the president of the Illinois locals and would not come thru Illinois headquarters. At first he said if such an order came to him he would ignore it but later stated Lewis was his superior officer and he must obey his mandates. The Illinois miners' president ex pressed some doubt as to the Illinois men returning to work.. "The men arr resentful at Lewis's interference and may refuse to go back," he said. Other officials Indi cated the men will return under the conviction that the federal commis sion will give them a fair hearing of their demands and a fair decision. Coal shortage reached new limits today. Nearly all freight trains run- ning thru Springfield have been an nulled. "Unless coal comes from some unexpected place tomorrow, railroad representatives said some passenger trains will follow the freight to inac- tivity. I i To Ignore Lewis's Order? Belleville. 111.. July 31. James Ma son, secretary-treasurer of the Belle ville sub-district of the miners' union. expressed the belief that the men in that district would ignore the order of John L. Lewis to return to Work. He expressed the opinion that the strikers would await instructions' on the mat ter from Frank Fawington, their state president. 4 In KCprb-al Against Sinn l'cin. Dublin.

Chairman White declared that un til f.-ivprnfir f 'dW hnrl deliver his presidential i speech cf acceptance, he did hot care "to engage in a newspaper controversy with the Republican candidate." "It might be pertinent to ask. how ever," he added, "whether former President Taft or Senator Johnson of California correctly represents the Re publican attitude with respect to the ieague." The appointment of William H. O'Brien of Lawrenceburg. Ind.. for mer state auditor, as western cam paign manager, was announced. Mr. O'Brien will have headquarters at Chicago. In addition to the League of Na tions, the American industrial prob lem and other domestic questions are to have a prominent part in the ad dress of Governor Cox. It is said that large portion of the address might e expected tp deal with industrial af fairs, with a view to bringing capital and labor closer together. Those who have talked with the-governor said this is one of Wis most serious con cerns and they believed he would give his views at length. ISo engrossed was the governor in mpleting his address .that he of fered no comment last night on the statement of Senator Harding, his Re publican opponent, charging that pow erful international interests favoring the League of Nations were behind Democratic financing and that the Democrats.would seek to minimize the league tsstie. There was doubt wheth er the governor would reply before de livery of his acceptance address as he has said he then would answer any thing he deemed essential. It was stated also that he would not enter into a telegraph debate with Senator Harding. state i Ed A. Davis. Mlnnennofia: R. tnt n.

The bride made her home here sev eral years ago when attending high school but later went to Kansas City. Mr. Addison travels for a Chicago elec trical house. Topekans returning from London, if they did not know before they went abroad who Miss N'elle and Miss tara Kouns were, certainly learned when they reached London, for these two popular Topeka girls are entertaining Londoners by the hundreds. Wherever one goes on the trams, busses, street cars and underground and wherever there is a poster, placard or bill ad vertising London's huge variety house, the Coliseum, there you will see the two girls' pictures. One Topeka woman, who returned several days ago, tells of the enthusi asm with which they were received by the London audience and how dif ferent thev seemed from the rest of the London stage folk. They have been sinking for the past three weeks at the ?oliseum and are the last act on the bill. It is expected that they will return to the states in me im and home town folks will have the of hearing tnem this opportunity Tvi titer. The Topeka woman also tolls of a custom in London theaters which poems odd to us here. Instead of sell ing cantTy, popcorn and otherdainties between the acts, they serve tea and t rakes. Tea is sold for about 15 cents a cup and so are the cakes,, and the whole audience sit and drink their tea and chat with friends. Tea and cakes are also sold in the railroad stations.

Dear Elizabeth: What an excitlns time you must have had last week with that burglar and has he been ar retted? You had about as thrilling a scare as a Topeka man had this week. He and bis wife belons to the smart" set in town and evidently they didn't say the "I will" part in the "love, honor and obey" clause of their wed-, ding service. One day last week when taa world didn't revolve according to the ideas of the wife, everything went wrons about the house and it was hot in the bargain, she and her husband started to fussing. Finally the wife with a wild glare in her eye ran out side, grabbed up the sickle with which her husband had been cutting grss and threatened to chop him in bits. I wouldnit be a bit surprised, if I were that wife, were my husband to get a divorce. Talking about divorces, that Topeka woman out in California hasn't filed her suit yet, but she Visa id she was; going to,' so we are waiting. Whenever it comes, I suppose we'll ha-e.some choice bits of scandal aired. Several Kansaa City women certain ly have been receiving all sorts of cruel words from a Topeka woman who was down there and saw them smoking In public In a tea room, but at least they don't "hide their light underneath a bushel." A bunch of Topeka girls who had a party here one afternoon last winter were almost discovered smok iag, so the Topeka woman shouldn't become so alarmed about the morals of Kansas City. One of the girls at the party happened to have a package of cisraets in her bag which she had con fiscatedtrom the pockets of her best beau, and they all gathered round and r.-ere getting up a really good smoke barrage when who should show "up but the hostess's dad. She ran out in the hall and before dad had a chance to sniff the air she had him pointed hasementwards to see what was the matter with the furnace it had been siryOcing all day. By the time he had readjusted all the dampers and re turned, the living room had been aired nd they breathed easily once more. I intended to tell you last week, Elizabeth, about the charmingTheta girl who is out in California. She has a whole flock of oil wells and Is simply rolling in money, but Is Just as un selfish and unspoiled as can be. Well, she's engaged to a former Washburn man, a captain oversea, and he's now down in Texas, superintending some oil wells of Ms own. I think we may look forwterd to a lovely "wedding in the fall. Do you remember the notice you sent me lfet week from the. Times about the girl who formerly lived here getting married? Well, when I saw her name I thought of that awfully hot night we went down tS he auditorium to attend high school commencement erf rclses. She was graduated that niph Do you remember the huge hair rihbon she wore? It covered the For Any Purpose "A King Photograph Will Do the Work.

The government, it seems, is having (rouble getting men for the army, and the recruiting officers wonder- why. It's secret. known only to soldiers of the great war and friends in whom they have confided, but I am going to violate a confidence hnd give the re cruiting officers a tip: it is because the social status of the enlisted man fs about on par with that of the hired girl. This has been called a business age, but mai::ly It is -a social age. Every body alms to wind up his day with a sociability run. Our social structure is so builti that only two classes of folks are denied the privilege of as piring to a position in society hired girls and enlisted soldiers. The former are changing to other kinds of work to overcome the handicap, and the lat ter now that peace is supposed to have come announce In no uncertain terms that they hanker not for the war game. Officers perhaps won't admit it for publication, but they know that the buck private gets nowhere socially. He simply doesn't belong: isn't- there. Everything is done for the officers, and their social advantages leave noth ing to be desired. True, lengthy ser mons are preached for the delectation of the bucks, prayers are offered for their souls and resolutions are adopted about their glorious deeds, but the re ception line, the victory ball and the brick-ice-cream-and-cake stuff are not for them, and won't be until the'Px Isting military system is changed. Of ficers say it can't be changed. Possi bly so; but if that is the case, the gov ernment woll continue to appeal to a considerable extent in vain for enlist ments bv the boys who fought at Chateau Thierry, in Belleau Woods, at v eraun ana in tne Argonne. Officers, Got Good Women. Wrhy. in the Debarkation hospital at Newport News, where I served as a Red Cross worker, nurses- were pro hibited from associating with enlisted4 men, but were expected to entertain officers and go out with them to par ties and to the theater. I know this to be a fact. In France the same rule was even more strictly applied, and In all towns where troops were quar tered the officers wero given oppor tunity to meet respectable women, but the enlisted men were hindered In ev ery possible way from so doing. There is no secret about this, and it is not surprising, for the army regulations makes an officer a "gentleman," but it exercises no such creative power with resDect to enlisted men. Iso'-ne American man will stand foc-Mrat sort of thine loncer than he has to. Now. this is not a diatribe against officers they are entitled to all ther consideration they receive: but what. I am trying to show is that the army regulations call for a vicious, Prus sianesque discrimination against those whose efforts to make the world safe for democracy are conducted in the ranks. I know national guard and other officers who tried to overcome some of the evils complained of, but the "svstem" Dromotlv brought tnem to time. One officer ap'far forgot his Yniiitarv dienitv ar to tfcince on tne same floor with a hue, 'and he all but lost his bars. In private life the officer was a shoe clerk and the buck a bank cashier, with,, social status about equal. Americanize tlie Army. Personally, I fc-lieve It is possible to run an army on an American plan. To Americanize th institution, of course, would mean that the military machine now operating would have to be smashed and rebuilt, and to help smash it and bring about its recon struction would be my most enjoyable outdoor snort. I am going-to run for congress, some time for that purpose.! Meanwhile. I am ror tienerai w ooa iot secretary of war. I wasn't for Wood for president, but the general and I agree pretty well with reference to the military machine, and I think that he, as secretary of war, would trim the outfit about to my notion. Let s back- Secretary of War Wood by starting a movement to American ize the army. The way to do It is to write to senator and .representatives. They appreciate letters from home. I don't mean "form" letters which are all alike. Statesmen pay more at tention to Individual letters.

J it i THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL SATURDAY EVENING, JULY 31, 1920 V HOOTING A SWEET C'X'Tpi' M Golf Hooks and Slices, Teed O 1 1 VlV From ArotJfid the Sandboxes at the Shawnee and Country Clubs in Topeka. By AJC One of the most interesting: "golf families" in the United States is rep resented in Topeka by E. R. Nelson, professional at the Country cldb. Erwin is the youngest of six broth ers, all widely known profeafcional golfers and holding positions in the north, west and south. There are sox men in the Nelson family all follow the golf profession- and all are ex ceptional players and popular instruc tors. Topeka golf enthusiasts are espec ially appreciative of their member of the family. Nelson is finishing his second season here and if the senti ment of the club guides future actions he will remain here until some other city bids too high. The first member of the family to take up the game was Lee. Uee start ed his caddy days on the old Riverside course in Indianapolis. He was caddy master for Bob Fullertoi- of Togeka when the latter was pro at Indianap olis. Fullerton recognized the ability in the youngster and taught him the game. Lee sneaked out to the club one day with a full set of left handed clubs. He played with them consist ently until l-'ullerton discovered the bov's tactics. One by one he took the clubs from the bag and broke them over his knee. "Now," said Fuller ton, "you take some right handed clubs and learn to play golf." It is a well known rule that left handers do Bt make scratch golfers and Fuller ton was not going to allow his favor ite to start on the wrong track. Lee's first job as professional was at the age of 18 on the Riverside course. He then took over the Highland club and later the Indianapolis Country club. From there he went to the Miami Reach olf club in Florida, where he. is located todav. Lee is 36 years of age Nelsonisms on Golf I 'ft Written for The State Journal by E. R. N'ELSON professional at the Topeka Country Largest Professional Family In U. 5. Selection of Clubs, o the. beginner in golf the first problem is in the selection of clubs. It has always been my idea that be fore the embryo player places his money in clubs he should take a few lessons from a. professional, who can, by observation, decide immediately the size and weight of sticks adapted to the physical makeup of the pupil. The necessary golf clubs are: Brassy. s Spoon. Mid-iron. Mashie. Niblick. Putter. You'll notice I do not suggest a driver. There is a reason for that. The driver is a difficult club to master. The beginner should do his first driv ing with a brassy. The brassy has more loft and the ball takes the air with little effort. This instills con fidence into the player and his tee shots are easier to conquer. On the fairway I suggest the spoon. When Lee" Nelson left the Riverside j clubs" It digs deeply under the ball club of Indianapolis he had toreaignt enough to see that the development ui his brother Wallace was sufficient to make possible a family successor. Wallace was caddying at Riverside when FOllerton was in charge. He won several dozen balls one day when he plaved a millionaire in place, ot Fullerton, who had refused to play on Sundav. Working in the shop under his older brother, Wallace had learned the club game as well as the game on the fairwav. The Riverside club was determined' to keep a Nelson in charge some wav or other so Wallace was giv en the position as professional. Wal lace spent three years at Riverside, three vears at Beaumont. Tex., three vears at Muncie. Ind., and is now lo cated at the Highland club in Indian apolis. It looked for awhile as if the family string was to be broken when Lee left Indianapolis because Wallace was all wrapped up in baseball. Wal lace is 34 years of age. became a pro at 20. C'h' ster was the third brother to ent." the came. He played amateur golf and made quite a-j-ecord between the ages of 14 and 18. Then the call of the elder brothers was heard and at the a -e of IS he became a professional at Battle Creek. From there he went to Oklahoma City, then back to Dan ville 111., where he is located this sea son. Chester is 31 years of age. Chick was the fourth son. He fol lowed Lee and Wallace at Riverside. Indianaoplis. He was 20 at that time. When Lee lweft the Indianapolis Country club. Chick took that posi tion. and picks it out of more hazardous lies. Also it has considerable distance and enables the new player to realize the value of the wood club on the fairway. It prepares him for the brassy as the brassy paves the way for the driver. The mid-iron is the club that does the work between the brassy and the mashie. If the shot is too short for the brassy (or the spoon) and is too long for the mashie, the mid-iron is brought Into play. The mid-iron is the favorite iron club for the average player. The mashie is an all around stick. 1 It will pull the player from the tall grass, it will send the ball soaring to the green and it will serve as the long or short approaching club. The niblick should always be handy for the maw in trouble, in the sand pits, in the hazards or in dropping the ball dead on the approach the niblick is indispensable. The putter, of course. Is absolutely necessary on the greens. Later, when the player has become thoroly acquainted with the above named six clubs he may add the driver, the mashie-niblick and the ap proaching iron to his collection. TJon't change your clubs after you once learn them. A great mistake many golfers make is to become dis gusted with a stick and buy a new one. The player should make the proper selection first and stick to it. It is better for his game and his poeketbook. Tt, h' t,eram nrofessional at!

Nelson and How ardarm an ideal pair to handle in-. struction, clubs and caddies. The Country club never was in such good shape as this season." 1 Toiekans who play at both the Shawnee and Country clubs find the value, of the ability to avoid slices and hooks. At the Country club a hook is not a serious hazard. The ball will stay somewhere within the course if it takes a lefthand curve. But with a slice ther are foup holes where the ball will eo out of bounds No. 1, No. 3, No. 7 and No. 8. Not only does th ball go out of bounds but.it usually means another dollar contributed to the cause of the sport. On the Shaw nee courses the slices stay on the links but on No. 1, No. 6 and No. 9 a bad hook will send the ball out of bounds. When the Country club enlarges the course to eighteen holes it is planned to make the additional nine take care of the player who has a hook weak ness. Herb Ca van ess, editor and publish er of the Chanute Tribune was a Tojr peka visitor recently. Chanute has the golf bug, Cavaness says. A 9-hole course is in operation there and the club is considering the purchase of additional ground for an 18-hole links. Owing to the lack of water Chanute is using sand greens. Dr. Georpe H. Allen is the new champion of the Country club. In the finals of the championship tourna ment played this week Doctor Allen won over Joe Wilson. 6 and 5. Both players won their way to the last Koknmo.

And the proper confi dence in a stick when you take it from the bag is one of the real assets to a good game. For this reason begin ners should not rush frantically to a stock of clubs and buy them indis- jje criminately and rashly.

When only 11 vears old he entered the shop with his brother Lee in5 Indianapolis on the Highland course. Here he whipped older brothers to a standstill. When he was 17 vears old he went to Okla homa city and joined his brother Chester. He played golf, worked in the shop, and finished his high school course in Oklahoma City.

In April 1919, he came to Topeka. E. K. Nelson is 23 years of age. Who plays the best game That's a pretty ticklish, question but Ervin is not a bit backward about answering it. He admits that Wallace has a little the edge on the rest of the family. A "family tournament" never has beenheld but it is sched uled some winter in Miami. Last winter the six brothers were together for the first time in six years at Mi ami. The accompany photograph was taken at that time. "Topeka" Nelson is a finished in structor. He has an uncanny way of allowing the player to hit ball after ball and then when the pupil thinks Je has created a wonderful impres 'sion due to the silence on the part of the pro, the latter begins his ava lanche of criticism and suggestion. Nelson is a great believer in the natural form game. eH thinks a play er should fall naturally into a com fortable form before he is ready for finished instruction. Then he makes his suggestions in stance and grip and details. He seldom changes the playor from hie most easily played game. His instruction igvelops rather than 'breaks. The Topeka pro is a thoro gentle man. He is quiet and unassuming and wallops a forceful game. He is email in sature but when his wrists. ams. shoulders and body unwind the buU is due- for a sweet flight. "Pro" Nelson gives one day a week to instruction at the Shawnee club.

In the aft ernoon Allen picked up his game and won the first four holes which cinched the contest. Joe WMlson is a heady golfer and refused to be shaken by the spectacular Allen shots. He was especially strong on the approaches anti on the greens. Allen s second shots were marvels but his usual long screamer drives Avere lacking their punch. Doctor Allen has played golf but four years. He played three years on the Shawnee course with the excep- 1 tion of the time he was in the army and this season has been connected with both clubs. Owing to his big build. Doctor Allen uses a short stroke but the strength of his arms and wrists and hands puts a vicious slap behind the ball. His brassy shots are the "sweetest" in Topeka. He plays a lightning game and barring hold-ups can cover eighteen holes in the time the average player will loll around nine. Allen has one habit that never fails to distinguish him in the game. From the driver to the putter he carefully dampens the palms of both hands be fore, shot by the expectoration proc ess. If the ball is lying within two inches of the hole he never fails to go thru the spat preliminaries before tap ping it over the rim. In addition to b4s game. Doctor Al len is a thoro sport. He was the most popular opponent and partner on the Shawnee course and it was a source of real regret to Highland Park play ers when he transferred his affections this season to the Country club. Phil Eastman who never playedess than 90 holes a week last season has averaged less than nine holes a week on the Shawnee course this year. Eastman is president of the club and unless he spends more time on the greens and less at the fair' grounds, the directors of the club will direct ouster proceedings. Governor Allen, an ardent golfer, will be Appealed to. Harlow Hurley leads the field with a 27 in the Country club ringer score i tourname"ht. The riieer score is the best medal on each hole, posted when ever the player breaks his record Some wonderful" shots have been re corded thru this match-, W. W. Strick land holds the honor of making the rtnlv hole in a one. He holed outa 1 shot from the tee on No. recently. Several twos have been made, es pecially on No. 5 and No. 8. Threes are plentiful. Second honors in the 9 hole ringer rest with Bayard Whitney, who has a 28, just one over Hurley. Whitney's three on No. 1 will keep him low for many a day. He holed out a 200-yard brassy from the rough on No. 1. All other leaders in the ringer made a four on No. 1. The leading six players follow: Hurley 4-2-3-4-2-4-3-2-3 27 Whitney 3-2-3-5-3-4-3-2-3 28 Allen 4-3--4-2-4-3-3-3 29 Griggs 4-3-3-4-2-4-3-3-3 29 Felix i .4-3-3-4-2-4-3-3-3 29 G. Snyder A. 4-3-3-4-2-4-3-3-3 29 A most interesting feature of the contest is the identical score-made by Allen, Griggs, Felix and Snyder. Hurley's two on No. 2 and his two on No. 8 gave him the two points under the four players. Whitney came out ahead with his three on No. 1 and his two on No. 8. If Whitney can lower his five on No. 4 he will be nek and neck with Hurley. He also has an easy chance to make a two on No. 5. This will give him the prize unless Hurley can' make a spectacular play on other holes. Five golfers from Emporia, includ ing Pro. Chauncey Trout, played on the Country club course the first of the week. The players drove down in a motor car and from Wakarusa to within a few miles of Top.e kat, raced with- a Santa Fe train. They kept ahead of the train until they reached a crossing, where they decided to grant the right of way. They declare the speedometer on their Cadillac reg istered seventy-two miles 1 an hur. The players included Chauncey Trout, Frank Fountain, William Byrnes, Thomas Byrnes and Marshall Warren. Trout went to Emporia from Tulsa. He formerly was '.n the shop with Pro. Chester Nelson at Oklahoma City. He olds the Emporia Country club record with a 3 5. The amateur record is 36 for the nine holes. While Pro. Trout of Emporia was playing on the Country club course hre Sunday he asked a Topeka player where No. 2 hole was located. "Just over the barn," he was told. Trout laced out a drive directly over the barn that landed in a nWarby farm yard. The amateur did nt know he was giving his information to -a profes sional. Pro. Nelson of the Country club has a relic putter that he wouldn't sell for a flock of birdies. It was given to him in 1910 when Nelson was a youth in knee pants by Jack McDermott after McDermott had lost a tournament on the greens at Indianapolis. He blamed the loss of his game on his putter. Nelson was caddying for him at the time. McDermott was for two years winner of the western open champion ship and for three successive years winner in the national open champion ship. The registration caddy system has been adopted by the Shawnee ciub. Housekeeper Stawitz is handling the plan for the members. The svstem does away with the trouble club 'mem bers have been having with caddies who hide behind the rose pushes awaiting their- favorites. The regis tration plan also provides players with caddies immediately upon their ar rival. Stawitz reports that the boys are making more fees under the re arrangement. The "chariot racers" who wran handkerchiefs around their hair while playing golf at the Shawnee and Country clubs are causing no end of criticism anions the baldheaded. The tournament committee of the J3iue Hills club is carrying on an edu cational campaign. Eaim, member has found in his locker releently a type written copy of rules and ethics that each member of all the clubs might ao wen to memorize and obey: 1. Did you ever consider how unsports manlike it is to coiu-ede yoi:rself or your opponent a putt, when playing in medal competition '2. What right has the player with whom you are playing to couceUe you a putt anil thus Rpeak for all the other players in the club against whom you are playhag? ii. When you fail to nrenare vonr "scorn card properly nnd-tnrn it in, do yen renli the extra amount of work you impose upon 4. The committee considers it just as much its duty to raie a handicap as it does to loflrer one. If yon fel that yonr handicap is too severe, do not fail to notify the committee and it will consider the mat ter fairiy. 5. If you cannot find yonr ball readily, it is yoar duty nnder the roles and as a gentleman to immediately signal to the players behind you to come on tiwu, and after you have done so you should wait until they play thru. You hare no right to drop another ball after you have signaled., the players behind you to come thru and then hurry up to get out of their way. This Is absolutely eontrarv to the rules and I the ethics of the game. A failure to ob serve mis ruie is pernaps tne roost fre quent cause of dissatisfaction in any golf club. The reputation that some players acquire by habitually refusing to let others go thcu is not one to be envied. ti. When jiou have finished putting don't stand on the green and figure up your scores. You can do that at the next tee. 7. The other clay when a certain player's attention wis railed to an infraction-of the rules governing play he said: "Oh! I don't rare anything about the rules, I Just' play this game for the exercise I get out of it.'' Surely that man's soul and eense of sportsmanship noeiled ns much exercise as his body.

"Oh, Jim;" You hear .it every few minutes at the Country club. Before the show ers, after- the showers, over the telev phone everyplace there is that cry for 'Jim." Jim is the nineteenth hole of the Country club. His broad smile or his sympathetic countenance it all depends upon your game never fails to make the player feel at home. Photo by Wolcott. "Jim" Jim's real name is James Johnson. He is just as much a part of the Country club as the house or the greens or the fairway. He was a part of the organization back in 1906 when the course was laid out and the offi cers and members intend to see that iie stays with it to the end. Jim not only furnishes his valuable services to the club but Mrs. Jim is the best cook in the world. Her meals have improved many a golf score and many a disposition. The two have a bright family of boys. JJne was in the war. The boys have cad died for the nlavers. Mr. and Mr9. Jint are prou4 of the youngsters. They have helped them with their studies m school and have insisted upon thoro education. Early arrivals, at the Country club locker room often find Jim earnestly buried in a book of high class fiction or classic. Jim is acquainted with every mem ber of the Country club first, tnMdle and last names. He kept the club ac counts in golf and also did the club repair work in the ays before a pro fessional was hired. There'll never be another Jim like James Johnson. Charlie Flanders has greatly Im proved the Shawnee club tees. The greens, also, are in fine shape. The recent rains have kept the ground keeper busy from daylight until sun down on the fairways. The sudden growth of the grass especially the buffalo variety has made if necessary to double-cut every strip. Brassy lies never were better on the Shawnee courses, than today.
