The Kansas wheat crop showed a condition of 65 per cent of normal on April 1 according to the report of Kdward C. Paxton, statistician of the United States bureau of crop esti mates. This is an improvement of fi per cent since December, but never theless is, with one exception, the low est in the lst ten years. Jewell and Mitchell counties show a condition of only 13 per cent and Rooks county. 18 per cent. However. in some eastern and southeastern counties the condition runs as high as 90 per cent. The condition seems to grow worse as one progresses from the eastern to the western 'portion of the state. "The condition of 65 per cent." says Paxton, "is predicated upon the basis of the total of 11,569,000 acres esti mated as sown last fall. Xo estimate of abandonment can be made until May 1. The experience of former years is that Kansas abandons about three-fourths of 1 per cent of the acreage sown for each point the April 1 condition departs from normal. The chances are about equal that the abandonment of 25 per cent would still leave 8.677,000 acres for harvest." SUICIDE COMPLETES HER PLEA. J. M.

Litigation promoters and "ambu lance chasers' received a genuine knockout today in a stinging opinion of the supreme court which speaks feelingly of a Kansas district judge, recommends disbarment proceedings for two lawyers, and calls upon the attorney general to consider action for removal of a county official. The de cision reverses a Judgment from Judge William H. McCammish's division of the Wyandotte county district court and uses harsh language in speaking of the practices of Lee Judy and Earle R. Gilbert, Wyandotte county lawyers. Gilbert is public administrator. Judy and Gilbert are law partners. The suit grew out of an action for damages against the Santa Fe rail road. Louis R. Holbrook, a brake man, was killed at Edgerton, Johnson county, November 6. 1919. At the time his place of residence was in Kansas City, Kan. The day following the young man's death Lee Judy wrote to the boy's mother and told her suit would be filed for damages. Lawyers Promoted Litigation. Evidence in the case, as reviewed in the supreme court opinion, shows that Holbrook's mother testified she did not want to bring suit. She said she signed an agreement which, it developed, was a contingent contract. It provided that one-half of all money collected should be paid in attorneys' fees. It provided further that Judy guaranteed againet any judgment for costs. Subsequently, J. C. Holbrook, as administrator, came to Topeka and settled the case for $1,500. Gilbert, the public administrator, and Judy brought suit in the Wyandotte county court for $750 under their contingent fee contract. The case was tried before Judge McCammish. A demurrer was over ruled. After the jury had deliberated some time Judge McCammish recalled the jury and instructed that it bring in judgment for the plaintiffs for the J $750. This was done- An appeal was men laxen to ine supreme court. Justice John Marshall, who wrote the opinion, gives this class of litigation and procedure a blow that is likely to attract wide attention among Kan sas lawyers. The opinion specifi cally directs attention of the state bar examining board and the attorney general to the records with recom mendations that they "get busy." Grose Misconduct," Says Court. The contract with Holbrook's mother is declared unenforceable and J champertous. Then, Judge Marshall adds: "The rule that this court has followed in writing its opinions Is that counsel will not be unnecessarily criti cised for the conduct in trial of cases in the district court, or in their pre sentation in this court, but that rule cannot be followed where lawyers be come litigants and base their right to recover on transactions that show the grossest misconduct on their part." Violates Professional Ethics. Again Justioe Marshall says: "The public administrator of Wyandotte county, under the cloak of his official position, sought this litigation, and to forestall proper proceedings by the parties interested had himself ap pointed administrator of the estate and contracted with himself and his part ner to prosecute this action for a con tingent fee and they immediately commenced the action. A more fla grant violation of this rule of pro fessional ethics can harly be imagined. No excuse can be given for this kind of conduct by any person who is in telligent and learned enough to be ad mitted to' the bar of the state of Kan sas. This conduct shocks the sense of propriety of every honest man. The courts should not permit such condwet to pass withoupt censure, and in no event, should a court enforce such a contract. This court cannot pass this matter unnoticed- Court Demands Action. "The judgment is reversed, and the trial court is directed to enter judg ment for the defendants. The atten tion of the state board of law ex aminers is directed to the record pre sented to this court in this case with the suggestion that the board give early an record an ment proceedings shall be commenced against Earle R. Gilbert and Lee Judy. The attention of the attorney general is called to the impropriety of the con duct of Earle R. Gilbert as public administrator of Wyandotte county and it is suggested that deliberate consideration be given to the advisa bility of institnting proceeding to aijst him from that office." Allen Must Go to Prison. On May 24. 1918. when Albert Allen and his brother John were having a dispute with Joe Kuttler, a Greeley county ranchman, at his home, Mrs. Kuttler plead with the Allen brothers not to kill her husband. "What good will that be to kill him? That will wreck two homes and send you to the pen." Mrs. Kuttler plead And ac cording to the testimony John Allen replied: "That is the place to go to get rich." And the Kansas state supreme court decided that Albert P. Allen must go to the pen for having murderel Kutt ler. The murder grew out of a dis pute over a mule that was in custody of Kuttler, and which both Kuttier and the Allen brothers claimed. Tes timony in the trial' was to th; "effect that the Allen brothers, went to the Kuttler ranch with the avowed in tention of getting the mule even tho they had to "kill" to do so. Thev asked permission of Kuttler to see the mule. He told them they could look at the mule ail they wanted to. Then they attempted to catch the mule and take it away from the Kuttler home. Altho the Allen boys were armed and MORAL LAW IS PLEADED WHEN INQUIRY BEGINS Inquest of Airman's Death Scheduled for -Today. Post Field Companions of Beck Arrive to Testify. JUDGE REITERATES HIS STORY Mrs. Day Also To Take Stand in Defense of Honor. 41 Did as I JIad a Right To Do, Says Day. Oklahoma City, April 8. The moral law Oklahoma's own code was pleaded as the cause for the killing of Lieut. Col. Paul "Ward Beck of Fot Field by former Judge Jean P. Day at the inquest held here this after noon. In a court room crowded with "the colonel's lady and Judy O'Grady," and with the most brilliant of Oklahoma's social set rubbing shoulders with men who still wear the four quart hat. Mrs. Pay began to tell the story of the at tack which resulted in Beck's slaying. Joe Campbell, police officer, w.-a the first witness to the stand. Tha trial was halted, however, when a call for police was heard. The second woman to faint in the afternoon had to be removed from the court room. The trial then proceeded. Beck was shot and killed by Jean P. Day. former justice of the supreme court and millionaire oil man, in thT latter's home here, in the small hours of Tuesday morning, after Day says he found the airmtn in an attack upon his wife the mother of his 19-yeir-old daughter, and, according to her closest girl friends, the promised wife of Beck's 24-year-old son, Lieut. Paul Ward Beck, jr. Since that hour, all Oklahoma has taken sides in the case. Day's story is an age-old tale a story of misplaced trust. "I loved Beck as tho he were my brother," Day will testify at the in quest befora Coroner A. L. Mc Wil liams, scheduled for 2 o'clock this afternoon. "I brought him to my home. There he was treated as one of my family. During the months of our friendship a friendship which grew to lov Beck was always the gentleman. Tues day morning I found him otherwise. As I peered thru a window of my home I saw him, his arms around my wife, who lay struggling to free her self from his embrace. He was cry ing out his passion. I did what any red blooded American would do should do. I killed him, altho I dU not mean to go that far. I secured a revolver to drive him from my hom. and while I had the moral right to shoot him, the artual discharge of the revolver was accidental." It is to refute this story, the airmen who served under Beck's command at Fort Sill's aviation field have come to the inquest. They are headed by Beck's son and by his nephew, Lieut. John W. Beck, whose father Colonel Beck's brother was slain under mysterious circum stances several years ago. One of the largest crowds ever at tending a court inquiry here is ex pected to seek admittance to the In quest mom. The hearing has been changed from the coroner's office to the court houso so that the personal friends of Judge Day and Colonpl Beck may be present. Twelve witnesses have been called. Day himself will testify. His wife will also tell of the events preceding the tragedy. She will say, however, that from the moment sho saw her husband, revolver in hand, her mind is a blank, as to the actual shooting of the airman. Mrs. Rachael Beck, 77-year-old mother of the slain man, arrived here for a last view of her son's body this morning. She was accompanied by the wives of army officers from Fort Sill. "It is not true it cannot be true!' Mrs. Beck said, crying softly. "My boy could not do the things they say." It was expected, even by Prosecutor Forrest L. Hughes, that the Jury would return a verdict urging that prosecu tion against Judne Day bo dropped. Washington, April 8. The body of Lieut. Col. Paul Ward Beck, army of ficer shot to death In another man s home in Oklahoma City under tragic circunjHtanccs, will be laid to rest in Arlington cemetery, where thousand d carefu attention to that r JEldj7" .bed. a id determine whether disbar- tne war Prlment is concerned.

Stafford county must pay for the paving around the public park in St. John, county seat. That was Ihe opin ion of the supreme court when it af firmed a judgment of the Stafford county district court. When the original townsite was platted, the town company deeded a block of land to the county to be known as a county square. Stafford county never improved the land and the city spent a considerable amount of money in beautifying it for a park. When the paving fever hit St. John the city ordered paving laid on all sides of the county square. The county commissioners, however, re fused to pay the paving claim of the city and suit was brough in tho dis trict court. The court held trTat since the county retained title to the land, it must pay the 'paving bill, even tho the ground fsj used for city park pur poses. This opinion was affirmed by Uie supreme court.

Kraft, against the defunct Kansas Stt-te bank. Gebhart and Kraft, as executors, had $6,750 in their hands for invest ment. They turned it over to the Traders State bank of Salina, their president giving a receipt undertaking to show the nature f the transaction. That bank later reorganized as the Kansas State bank. After a consider able time suit was brought to recover the money placed for investment. It was alleged that diligence had not been exercised in using the money to secure profitable return for the exe cutors. The supreme court on an ap peal heM that the responsibility of the bank was such as to make it liable and affirmed action of the lower court. Hunt Is Awarded $2,000.

Compared with a week ago, wheat prices this morning varied from lTfcf setback to 2c gnirt, corn was up mc to lic, oats c to c higher and pre cisions at a rise of 40c to $1.75. Movement of wheat to Chi-aso from Oma ha. St. Joseph and other western primary market was generally taken to menn that filling of May contracts here would be much easier than was recently expected b-v many traders and that a shortage of bread stuffs would have to he looked for later, if at all. It was pointed out in this con nection that the domestic visible supply of wheat was still 17.00O.000 bushels in ex cess of the figures a year ago. CHICAGO PROPVCE MARKET. Chicago.

Imagine John D. Rockefeller alone in a. strange town without a cent in his pocket: The picture is not an improbable onp. The man of millions, if he were stranded in a strange place, probably wou'd not have enough cash in his pockets to buy a meal. John D. nevet carries money around with him. except the small coins he distributes anions the children and J some grownups among The latter by the way of jest. New dimes are his; hobby this year. j The house he li es in is a rambling vi.fk;.-..i f m .-.tt'A-iinc whirh gives the impression of having been ..n t. K-waei-Pr in it hetter davs. "That's the Rockefeller mansion. l-ut it ain't no mansion at all," says the "flivver" driver pointing it out to visitors. The aged .multimillionaire rises far.y. Nut long after sunup he is nut on his grounds inspecting the tres or watching the birds. We supervises all the gardening. H piays golf with religious reg ularity every day.. He patronizes the 'rmond public links, playing about six holes as a rule He is a "golf bug" and advises tftryone to take up the gamp, "Uolf is a wonderful health-giving game." he says. It is golf, p'-oper diet and a simple mode of living that has kept the oil king physically fit at the age of 83, according to his friend and physician. Dr. Hiram Biggar. No portrait or photographs ever showed the "Rockefeller smile." It is a winning smile, full of warmth and somewhat xwstful. As friendly as his warm hand clasp Children are the mst familiar with the "Rockefeller smile." There was the little English boy who ran into his arms as he sat in the Hotel Ormond the other night. The youngster announced he had ben ill and graphically described the ailment to Mr. Rockefeller as the lat ter sympathetically patted his hand. "You didn't eat any supper. I hope." aid th financier to the little boy. When the child nodded his head in the affirmative. Rockefeller said re provingly, "You shouldn't have." He gave the youngster one of his dimes. As the boy moved to put the coin in his pocket, the financier said with mock solicitude: "Now. you're sure 3 on haven't got a hole there?" T have not." said the boy. Indig nant. "No. well that's fine." said Mr. Rockefeller, patting his head. THIS NEGROJS SPEEDY At S ght of Gun James Moore Ran So Far Last Night It Took A 1 1 Forenoon To Get Back Now the Police Are Investigat ing. He who steals my purse steals trash, but he who filches from me my corn liquor takes that which is exceedingly hard to duplicate. Thus, perhaps, reasoned "Nappy" Vack. a porter at the National hotel. And having heard that James Moore, negro employe of the Union Taxi cab company, had committed the theft, he hailed a taxi Friday nii?ht and drove to Moore's home. 513 West First avenue. "He called me out." said Moore In relating his experience to officers this afternoon, "and when I got up to the car he was pointing a revolver at me. He had the drop on me and I seen T couldn't get his gun. so I just left thre." Moore said Mack shot at him four times as he raced up the railroad tracks. But he clung to the idea that he who fights and runs away will live to fiRht another day. "Boy!" he exclaimed. "I ran so far up them tracks It took me til noon to day to get back." "But why did Nappy shoot at you?" he was asked. "Well, you see. i cousin's little boy stole a gallon jug of whisky from him and he thought I did it." Police were investigating the affair today. Local Mention After havir.R beep the object, for several months, of solicitous care and enthralled attention, one of the tad poles in the tank on the third floor of the city building lias rewarded his custodians by becoming;' a frojr at last he is almost a frog now. Every day there is an assemblage of the employes of the departments on that floor to see what progress his froffship has made. Kvery day there is a dis tinct elimiriuition of the tail which branded him a tadpole, and which is beinir absorbed into his body as he be comes a frog.

I HEART AND HOME PROBLEMS I Written for The State Journal BY ELIZABETH THOMPSON Dear Mrs. Thompson: I have been going with a young man one year my senior. We have gone together for almost a year. About two months ago he became interested In another girl. He tried to keep it a secret from me and told me several times after he started going with this girl that he loved me and missed me when I was nwflv frnm him Ha didn't know I knew about the other girl. I didn't t let on as I didn't want him to think

H a whil Ol ext He hasn't spoken to -ne for quite and he hasn t made any kind of explanation. I don't know why so long. Don't you think if he ever cared anything for me he should have some kind of an explanation? I loved this fellow and I like him to a certain extent yet. I am not uneasy about not getting some one else I will like just as well. Don't you think it would show there was more to him If he would make some kind of an explanation? It seems to me if we had gone together a few times It wouldn't make any difference, but we had come to a pretty serious point. I am not quite eighteen, but will be in a short time Every time I see this fellow he is looking at me. He watches every move I make. We at- tend the sam school. Do you think he still cares for me? Please pass your opinion on this. SMILES. Tou have given your love to a "masher" and are paying the price with a heavy heart and humiliation. No boy or man has the right to de clare his love for a girl unless he follows up his statement with a pro posal of marriage. Yes, I do think he owed you an explanation. If he had had any man hood he would have told you that his love was gone and he could not keep up his pretense. Without a doubt he wiil treat the new girl with the same lack of consideration. Forget him as quickly as you can. and do not let the mistakes of yesterday keep you from achievement today and tomorrow Profit by this lesson and in the future keep your relationship with boys on a friendship and not a sweetheart basis. I do not believe he loves you now. gee dress, and is also on a pongee "chinky" parasol to match. A dahlia design was worked out on the dress in the photo, with the result that it was found pretty enough to be put in the movies and worn by Agnes Ayres, Para mount star, who will be seen with Jack Holt in William deMille's lat est picture, "Bought and Paid For." The skirt was polka-dotted with this motif, but the waist was left plain the motif only border ing the neckline, and appearing in a group of three over each el bow. A ribbon of a dahlia shade circles the waist and hangs below a deep hem. WANTS A 'DEVORSE', QUICK So an Illinois Man Who Wrote to Douglas Graham Probably Will Xot Come to Kansas To Get Decree. A man who does things and does them now; a man who will tolerate no delay in anything that is the kind of a man. evidently, who lives at Greenup. Illinois, and who wants a di vorce.

There will be no conference of the union heads of the southwest with the coal operators'-organization in Kansas City Monday it was made certain today when G eorge L.

Peck said today that he had not received a reply from John Wilkinson, president of the Oklahoma-Arkansas district to whom he sent the Invitation of the operatorsv Refusal of the mine union officials to meet the operators in a new wage conference rather tends to put burden of the strike responsibility on the in ternational and district union officials, according to state house views. The operators have made several specific proposals for a new conference. In each case the mine union heads have failed to accept the offer to try to settle the strike differences and re open the mines.

The Union Pacific railroad will spend approximately $29,000,000 this jear for additions, new equipment and short line extensions, according to an announcement made by Robert S. Lovett, of New York, chairman of the road, but none of it is poinir to be spent for a new depot at Topeita. Out of -the vast expenditure may come an interlnckins plant for the control of the Rock Island and Santa Ke crospintrs in North Topeita, and fome minor improvements, but any hope which has been entertained for a new passrn?rr station, freight house, roundhouse- and improved trackage facilities this year is turning to a dreamy aspect. Not This Year, Official Says. "When Chairman Lovett's announce ment was received Friday The Htate Journal wired to Omaha asking if the proposed improvements named above, all of which had ben provided for In the preliminary budget the first of the yr-nr, were included.

The Union Pacific con templates t he construction of three branch lyifs in 1 'J 2 J, the executive s;.id. one of which is under way and expected to be ('oniplrtd at t he end of summrr. This is understood to be a short lm in western Nebraska. Speaking of other angles of th? rnmpany's budget for ll-2. Lovett said tho Pari He Fruit Kx press com jtany. which is owned jointly by the Union Pnrific and Southern Pacific systems, has appropriated approxi mately $i, ao. 001 for new equipment this yp;ir. Thf Pacific Fruit Kxires company has additional work in con templation. su'h ns Uc factories, amounting to more than 1.000.000.

Peterson is 74 yelrs old and came to America in 1869. Not until 1920 did he apply for citizenship. At the first hearing, held a year ago, H. E. Pendry, who was a member of the Htate guard during the war, testified that he had liyd next door td Peter son and had heard the old man make disparaging remarks about the United State and her soldiers. Mrs, Pendry testified to similar occurrences. The case was continued to give Peterson time to present a defense. Today Peterson called several prominent citizens who had known him for thirty to fortv vears to testify in his behalf. They said they had never heard him make any disloyal re marks. Capt. George P. Morehouse, wlv) commanded company B, of the Topeka battalion of the State guard, testified that Peterson's son had been discharged without honor for failure to report for duty.

High hopes are current in University of Kansas sport circles on the outcome of the Jayhawker baseball eeason this spring. With nine of last year's Mis souri valley championship team back this year, and with George "Potsy" Clark as the Jayhawker diamond mentor, university followers are con fident that the Kansans will finish around the championship berth in the vallev. The first hope of the Jayhawkers Iie3 in the fact that the veterans in clude three varsity pitchers. They are: Capt.

The Kansas team will be led this year by Bloomer, who in addition to pitching, is also slated for first base position. Bloomer is playing his sec ond year with the univery team He made a strong record last year that entitled him to the captaincy of the nine. He comes from Claflin. Fred G. Murphy, veteran short stop and captain of the 1921 champions, also is back with the Jayhawkers this year. Other veterans on tne list inciuae. Joseph Boyd, Arkansas City, playing his second year at second base; J. H. Wenzel. Enterprise, third base, sec ond year; Roy C. Farrell, Pratt, field, third year; Floyd J.

Railroad News of Week CHAS. W. LANE NOT DUE TO RATES J. L". Gorman, President of Rock Island, Defends Koads. Charges of Over Capitalization Are "Wild, He Says. One of the charges most frequently heard is that American railroads are overcapitalized. It bobs up in nearly every public meeting where the rail road question is discussed, usually put forward by persons who apparently like the sound of the words but have little real knowledge of their meaning. "The public believes, I suspect, that speaking of railroads collectively, they are greatly overcapitalized," says J. K. Gorman, president of the Chicago, Hock Island Pacific ranroaa. "Therefore, the people believe the rates they are required to pay are far greater than the real value of the railroads warrants. Kaiiroaa man agers have always known that speak ing generally, the valuation of the roads was greater than their capital ization. "But before entering into this ques tion of valuation, one ought to know just how the valuation of these prop erties has been or is being determined. It was one of the leading critics of the railroads, who introduced and brought about tho passage of an amendment to the original act to reg ulate commerce. Under this amend ment the comission was directed to inquire, and the railroads were re- I quired to show, the true value of their properties. In pursuing the instruc tions of congress the railroads, by the end of 1920. had expended $55,500,000 toward assembling this information, and the government itself had spent about $21,500,000. Various estimates have been given showing how many millions of doilarr more will be re quired before all the information de manded can be supplied with a rea sonable degree of accuracy. "A large number of the roads have been subjected to this investigation, their books examined and the val uations published. The tentative value set on tho roads for the purpose of rate making by the interstate com merce commission was 18, 900, 000. 000, against the railroads contention that this valuation should have been considerably more. Cites the Rock Island's Case. "Take th case of the Rock Island railroad. The Interstate Commerce commission has found and reported the total vrflue of this property to be $388,000,000, and the total of all bonds, stocks, unfunded securities and: other indebtedness. $378,500,000. This valuation is sufficient to pay all of the. Rock Island's bonded indebtedness. preferred stocks and other debts and i still leave to the owners of its com mon stock $84,300,000, or at the rate of $113 for every $100 share of com mon stock. "I believe the valuation figures of this road give an indication of the fallacy of the general public opinion on this subject. The Rock Island is a typical railroad because it serves an extensive terrtory, has large and val uable terminals and is a first class railroad with- good equipment. Its valuation is one of the best examples show how the valuation of railroads a whole will compare with their equalization. The figures given for the Rock Island are based upon the prices of June 30, 1915, to which have been added caditalizaton charges made subsequently to that date for betterment of its roadway and.equip ment. The valuation that would be shown today based upon present prices to reproduce the property would be hundreds of millions of dollars more than the figures supplied, but such valuations are not and will not be used as the basis for the making of rates." Manufacturing industries and com mercial business. President Gorman said, figure their costs and profits largely upon the basis the cost of re production of sales based upon present date figures. The valuation law pre vents the railroads from doing this, and therein lies the basic difference between these two types of American industry. Valuation Basis Is New. "Prior to 1920," President Gorman said, "the valuation of railroad prop erty had ho relation to the rate that was charpod for railway service. Lo cal conditions, competition, the de velopment of a new industry or terri tory, the equalization of rates from various territories to the primary mar kets, and many other situations were' involved in the making of such rates, and much of the traffic of new Indus tries or the development of new ter ritories has been carried by the rail roads at materially lower rates than the cost to the transport. "For years prior to and during1 the war the railroads had been trying to Set an increase in rates, but it was not until the advent of the United States railroad administration that any appreciable relief was received. A 25 per cent increase in all freight rates of the country was made by I .T. y, direction of that administration, ef fective June 25. 1918. In making this decision the valuation of the railroads was mt even thought of in connec tion therewith- The only time the valuation of the railroad properties was ever considered was In the ad vance granted by the Interstate Com merce commission August 26, 1920. when the unparalleled increase of 35 per cent was permitted the western railroads, and the basis of this rate was the valuation of the mads as de termined by the Interstate Com merce commission Itself. "The provision In the transportation-act which directed the Interstate Commerce commission to use 54 per cent as the measure upon which to base rates which would give a fair net return to the railroad expired March 1, 1922. Illumes Law For Slump. "General business fell off greatly when this law went Into effect and with it fell the business of the rail ways. So great was this slump that 1921 the roads received a return of only 3.3 per cent upon their valu- ation. I This depression was not caused dents as compared with the previous by the rate situation. Indeed, if i year. The reduction In the amount there had been no freight charge there of industrial work performed by the could scarcely have been any move- j railroads was also reflected in a re ment of many of the commodities. duction of 11.7 per cent in fatalities "In making the recent reductions In and of 26 per cent In the number of rates the commission did not in any j persons injured as a result of non way use the valuation of the railroads, i train accidents compared with the This is plainly shown by the f act that year 1920. Eliminating trespassers the return was only 3.3 per cent on the percentage of reduction in the the valuation. i number of persons killed and injured "Most of the talk about overcapital-j ization is the wildest kind of exaeeer- ation. There is no doubt that rates i must be further reduced, but this must come thru reduced labor and op erating costs and when these reduc tions are made they will bear little re lation to the valuation of the prop erties required to move the traffic." The Union Pacific is building a line from Whittier to Santa Ana, Cal. W. K. Etter acting general man ager of the Santa Fe, is making an inspection trip in Oklahoma. April 10 is the date set for the sale, of the Missouri North Arkansas, at Little Rock, Ark. This road has not been operated since July 31, 1921. The regular April safety meeting ot the Kansas division of the Union Pacific will be held at Kansas City April 23. Prospects for another wheat crop along the company's lines in Kansas is the basis of a report that the Union Pacific will soon increase its car re pair force at Armstrong.' Wendell A. Stillwell, supervisor of safety and fire prevention of the Rock Island and formerly general superin tendent of the eastern lines, died sud denly a few days ago at Rock Island, 111. He was 63 years old. Four cars of import silk were han dled by the Santa Fe from San Fran cisco to Chicago in March in exactly sixty-eight hours and forty-five min utes.. The cargo was valued at $1, 444,916. The Frisco system plans to enlarge its shops at Fort Scott, to make steel bodies for coal cars, a portion of the work to be done this year. It will be an extensive plant and will employ a large force. The t ansas City Southern has closed an option on a tract of ground at Pittsburg.

One of the largest orders for freight cars this ear probably will be placed soon by the New York Central. The order, it Is said, will call for approxi mately 16.000 cars and on account of its size will be divided among several car building firms. Negotiations, however, are still pending and the or der has not yet been placed. The Chicago, Burlington Quincy recently announced a 25 per cent re duction in its dining car prices, and has, in addition, inaugurated a new system of tabie d'hote meals, offering six combination breakfasts, ranging in prices from lorty cents to one dollar; a dollar for luncheon; and a dinner for $1.25.

J. R. Koontz, assistant freight traf fic manager of the Santa Fe, will leave the first of' tbe week for Oklahoma City, where Tuesday he expects to join a party of Galveston steamship repre sentatives for a tour of the Santa Fe lines thru the wheat producing belt of southern and western Kansas. Included in the party will be T.- R. Hancock, president of the S. Sgitco vich Company steamship line; Sennes Steele, vice president of the Steele Steamship line; J.t M. Lykes. vice, president of the Lykes Brothers' Steamship company; T. F. Herrick, traffic manager of the Lone Star Steamship company, and I. D. Mc Master, secretary of the Galveston Commercial association. The object of the tour is to investi gate crop conditions and to stress the importance of Galveston as the chief export center for Kansas wheat. Meet ings will be held with millers and other grain buyers at several different points in Kansas and the party will be in Topeka for a conference at the close of the trip on April 18. Plans for th4s meeting are now being made by the Topeka millers, it is.aid. On account of its location, Galves ton is the natural outlet for Kansas wheat and tlour for export purposes. The Santa Fe has excellent -railroad facilities to Galveston, and on account of the short haul, as compared to eastern ports, the grain movement to the south has been a-wonderful factor in reducing the box car shortage dur ing the busy grain season. In order to take care of the future business the terminal and steamship facilities Galveston have been greatly improved during the past few months, and it is for the purpose of pressing these advantages that the tour of the Kan sas wheat belt has been arranged.

BY V. E. BUXDT. The death rate in Topeka during the first three months of 1922, accord ing to the reports which have been mad4 to the city health department, has been higher than for the same three months of any year of which the department has any record. The collection of vital statistics in Topeka did not commence until 1915. There has not been" a year in the past seven, in which the number of per sons dying in Topeka during the first three months, has been as heavy as during 1922. There were 264 -deaths in Topeka during this period. There were eighty eight in January. 102 in February, and seventy-one in March. Of these three months, February is the only one which exceeds all records for the same month in any previous year. During no previous February have there been as many deaths in Topeka, as occurred during February of this year. The nearest approach was in February of 1920, when there were ninety-two deaths. The number of deaths occurring in January was exceeded during the same month in 1917. During March the number of deaths is exceeded by the March death lists of two previous years.. The comparison of the three-month period of 1922 and of other years back to 1915, is as follows: 1015 IT.-. 1!19 "...224 llKi 11VJO L''7 24) JltL'l 2tW 264 1M7 ms Only 13 More Births. The death rate for the first three months sof the year, according to the figures now in the office of the de partment, is exceeded by thirteen, by the number of birt s which have Jaeen reported during the same period. The total number of births reported thus far the figures are probably not complete for last month is 277. In January, when there were eighty-eight deaths, the death rate exceeded the birth rate of seventy-nine, by nine. In February there were 106 births j as compared "to 101 deaths, and in! March there were ninety-two births! as against seventy-one deaths. i Thirteen principal causes" of death are listed in a special report which I has been issued by Dr. Earle G. I Brown, city health officer. These thirteen main causes account for 202 of the deaths in the three-month period. Pneumonia Caused 67 Deaths. Pneumonia, with thirty-seven deaths due to the bronchial variety and thirty due to lobar pneumonia, making a total of sixty-seven deaths in three months, is at the head of the list of causes. After decreasing for the past three years, pneumonia broke all records during the first three-month period of lyzz. in 1919 there were forty deaths from pneumonia; in 1920 there were thirty-four deaths., and in 1921. but nineteen deaths. Organic heart diseases are In second place with a total of thirty-four deaths caused. Cancer is in third place, with nineteen deaths caused. The number. of deaths caused bv cancer is on the i increase thruout the United States. I obtained from Gage park within a few days. This fountain attracts hundreds of persons every summer and the attrac tion will become greater than ever when it is generally known that the rock around it contain from 1 to 2 per cent of gold. The rock came from Wyoming, an entire carload having been shipped here at the time the fountain was built. But don't worry it's too hard for any of the gold to be extracted. GOV. PLANS SPEAKINGTOUR Will Ijc&vo Sunday for Trip 'Thru Sixtb and Seventh Districts. Governor Allen, who has been spending the last four or five days in Kansas City and Omaha, returned to Topeka Thursday night. The governor will remain in To peka until Sunday when he leaves for a three days' trip thru Sixth and Sev enth district counties. He will make several speeches at school meetings in western counties. The governor Friday discussed the educational survey with members of the board of administration. He also talked with officers of the State In dustrial School for Girls at Beloit. As a result of this conference it was agreed to employ a woman physician at the state school. This afternoon the governor planned to sit with mem bers of the highway commission which expected to hear testimony in the ouster suit against M. v w atson. state highway engineer, BOY REAL MARTYR TO MUSIC.

This would mean a death rate of 120 for the year among the children of less than one year, if it continued. The death rate last year was 102. and in 1920. 101, among infants. Kighteen of the deaths of babies less than a year old occurred, in February of fchis year. There were fifty deaths of children under ten years of age. during the three months period including the thirty who died at less than one year. Above the ten-year limit, the deaths by ages are as follows: Ten to fifteen years 4 Fifteen to twenty years S Twenty to twenty-five years s Twenty-fire to thirty years 9 Thirty to forty years K Forty to fifty years 2l' Fifty to sixty years 'J Sixty to seventy years 42. Seventy to eighty years 51 Kijrbty to ninety years oO Ninety years or more 0 A feature of this table is that the age period at which most deaths oc cur is rapidly increasing. "Topekans are living longer and dying older, than they were a few years ago," Dr. Brown says. "If we could cut down these preventable diseases, the age of the average person would be increased several years." More Women on Ust. More girls and women than men and boys, died during the period studied. There were 1 27 deaths of males, and 137 deaths of females. The white race reported 229 of the deaths, the colored twenty-five and the Mexican ten. v In regard to the conjugal relation of the persons who died, seventy-nine were single, 112 were married, sixty eight were widowed and four were divorced. One hundred and forty-nine deaths were those of persons born in the United States, and thirty-three in for eign countries. Thirty-one were born m Kansas, fifty-one in Topeka, By wards the deaths were as fol' lows: First ward 22 Second ward 74 -Third ward 4 Fourth ward .1U Fifth ward 31 Sixth ward 65 expected to erect private aerials.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL SATURDAY EVENING, APRIL 8, .1922 HOOTING A SWEET QTTf'k'" jfl"T Golf Hooks and Slices, Teed iD 1 1 VrV. J From Around the Sandboxes at the Shawnee and Country Clubs in Topeka. By The municipal Rolf course propa ganda is evident again in Topeka this spring:. It is doubtful If Topeka is reaciy r niunif-infll tznXf. The two clubs now in existence need a full member ship at all times to furnish sufficient revenue for enlargement and improve ment. There are at least l.ftOO persons in Topeka who have golf privileges at this time. Until there is a larfter waitinK list on the Shawnee and Country club membership rolls it does not peem advisable to so to the ex pense of building a municipal course. All golfers naturally, are in favor rf city controlled courses. Municipal links develop you rasters who even tually become stars in tourney plar. But it would be a cosily undertaking on the part of the city commission, especially -vhen the available funds are needed tor other park develop ments Topeka coif enthusiasts should plant the seed in the city half this spring anil summer for an appropriation out of the 1123 municipal budget for a public course. With a beginning in i;23 there would be sufficient inter est in golf by that time to automat ically bring about an open links. There is an ideal spot for a munici pal coui-se west of Cage park and di rectly south of the Sixth street road. There is room there for at least three wntrr hides, there are plenty of ra tines and trees and the course would be wiihin a few blocks of a street car line. l.er the municipal links .come in l ii':;: Kobert FuHerton's free winter golf school has placed many Topekans in pood form for the spring play. Kuller Ton laid aside Thursday evenings at his store for lectures and exhibitions on golf and immediately there was evidenced tremendous interest. fliupnior Allen admits that one of tbe best arumpnts he could advance for a third term race to Mrs. Allen v.'ould be the benefits of his golfing on the Country club course. For years .Mrs. Allen has tried to induce The governor to abandon his office in the late afternoons and take outdoor exercise. Not until last year did the state's chief executive reaiiy lose bis reason over the came. Topekans who are convinced that the governor will not consider another term at the state nouse will have their last opportunity this summer to play regularly with him on the Country club course. Have you noticed how much poorer your g.Tme tu;s been since you played your first spline opener? It means that ir your first game this season you had not developed a highlv iterved golf strain. As a result you relaxed your muscles and swun? more eTsily and naturally at the ball. Co into every game with that idea. For rrt your score for awhile. Kliminate the little side bets. Take your game ns a distinct recreation, without worry, without concern. Many Country club members: have joined the Shawnee club this year due inp mnny improvements Deing made ctn the Iludley yard. This means the most active season in history for the Highland I'ark course. Country club women are planning fo adopt fchiekerboekers "fo a man" this season. There were many threats last year but only in early mornings did the fair golfers make their shy wppear-tnee. Already many of the frolferes.ses are having clothes made for the outdoor events. Flapping fiTiris win ne a novelty, it is indicated. The women are to be congratulated on their decision. A knicker suit is much more sensible, it does not create the "exposure" brought about otherwise, it is more in keeping with the game anil will command admiration and res-poet from the men. The drop in prices on golf balls is the most .satisfactory event of the 1922 season. Several of the "broth ers" who fought hard for the boxes of higher priced pills still stored in their lockers thi.i season may not ap preciate their loss in value but a balls-a-ball for a that. The big membership of the two To peka golf clubj Ehould represent enough taxpayers to receive road Venefils from the city limits to the courses this season. Vital repairs are needed badly on all thorofares to the Shawnee and Country clubs. To the new members of the Shaw rice and Country clubs: Your first move should be a request from an old member for the vital rules of golf etiquette. You may be misjudged seriously on the links Just because you are ignorant of the social rules of the game. Topekans who watched Jock Hutchison here last fall will be Inter ested in knowing that the rib-faced mashie. that weapon of golf warfare that has been a bone of contention between the Royal and Ancient Golf club of St. Andrew's and the Amer ican golf world ever since Hutchison's rather uncanny manipulation of the implement, as well as others in his bag. at St. Andrew's last, spring err abled him to bring home the British open championship trophy, again oc cupies the center of the stage. Shortly after the Chicagoan scored his great triumph iu the British classic last season there arose on the other side a considerable protest against his pet club his skillful use of which, according to pome of the British critics. had enabled him to succeed where all others had failed. It was claimed that, as a result of his deftness in the use of the club, Hutchi son had acquired the knack of mak ing the ball perform odd tricks, such as topping dead at certain objectives the holes. It was even hinted that he was aided not a little by the heavy scored clubs he used in making per tain shots from a distance of 100 jards or so. This, it was alleged, was unfair to the others who used the orthodox weapons.. After a. lengthy debate, in which the proponents of th ribbed mashie pointed out that Jones. Gardner, Ouimet and others ae-tomplishe-t the sahie purpose without the scored irons that Jock did with them, the Royal and Ancient legislated against all such clubs in the future. Coming as it did immediately after the discussion regarding Hutchison and being almost a parallel to what happened to the Schenectady putter after another American. Walter Travis, had captured the British ama teur championship, it resulted in a mighty roar against what was termed "poor sportsmanship" by the British. Of course, such a charge was foolish, because there had been talk of legis lating acainst the eormcate-l type' t irons eveu- before Hutchison entered I AJC the British affair. It did, however, cause a certain amount of bad feeling. Now comes the announcement of the Canadian golf ruling body that it will not follow the lead of the British in the matter of tl.e seared irons, and that their use will be permitted in Canadian tourneys. Previously the Western Golf association had ta-ken a similar action at its annual meeting, while the V. S. G. A., assembled at Chicago, decided to leave the matter alone. The opening golf tournament of the IDi'L' season in Topeka will be held at the Country club Wednesday, Thurs day, Friday and Saturday when 'the players of the club will meet under the banners of President Strickland and Secretary Fink as captains. The three point system Will be used in matching players for the winning. The losers will be hosts at a Country ciub dinner to be given early the fol lowing week.

Barnes and Hutchison on this last long trip have shown what it means to be overgolfed. They did wonder fully well on the 10.000 mile tour, but "when it came later on to competing in certain tourna.nents they were easy meat for the fresher talent that had played far less golf thruout the winter. Staleness can attack a star as easily as it can a dub, the American Golfer points out. The better golfer is more likely to be afflicted, for since he plays the game well he naturally likes to play it at every open chance. Too much golf before big champion ships has hurt more good players than any other single factor. They need a good stretch of golf in advance of the championship to be well seasoned, but they need just before the champion ship sufficient rest to bring about the needed keenness. No man has any thing but a slight outside chance to get anywhere in a big tournament if he starts the first day feeling tired with no zest for the game. When do I cease to be a dub?" a s-nbserihrr wrltrs this coluftirt. Observe the rules of the game, folia every form of golf etlqilett. never hold! tip the foursome behind you, never drive into the foursome ahead of you, say little and talk less, unless especially invited play only -with men of- your own score and TOU'RE NEVER A DUB! V. With the addition of the classy Kel-ler-Dustin sport shoqon East Seventh and the enlargement of the Fullerten stock, Topeka golfers are given really good downtown service this season; For some time local golfers have found it necessary to ask. for father than re ceive golf utensils. The Steel shafted crubs are beebm ing popular in Topeka this season. Of course there are the brothers who always will pat their Old wooden shafts and tell you bf their historical an cestors. Statisticians tell ns that there are more persons playing golf irt the I'nited States this year than baseball players and fans. They say jiere is more money invested in -golf cour9es than In baseball parksi It is predicted that 20 million stolf balls will be- sold in this country this year; The name of the national ga.me w-ill be changed some of these days. "Weather permitting, the CoHntry club "New Nine" should be in shape for playing in two or three weeks. Im mediately after the players are shifted to this south section of the club prop erty the "Old Nine" holes will be re built to eonform with the 18-hole plan adopted last year. With this com pleted tha new 18-hole course shoula be in shape for playing by June 1 or not later than June 15. Ir. W. N. West, chairman of the green commit tee promises. The Country club has deciaed fin ally that Kentucky bluegrass is not fitted for this climate. In the rietv green several varieties of seed, ar ranged for this seetion of the country and this soil will be planted. It is be lieved, seed experts say. that by next season the Topeka Country club vel vets will be as good as any in the country with the possible exception of the greens of the most exclusive clubs where care and maintenance is carried out without cost concern. In the spring in fact until the middle of June the Kentucky bluegrass is ideal. Then comes hot weather and crab- grass. Robert Fullerton, in charge of the new construction work. Fays the greens on the "New Nine" will be as good, if not better, early this season, than the permanent greens of fhe "Old Nine" at the present time. Fullerton is enthusiastic over the prospects at the Country club. He is positive that Tbpeka's Country club course With its regulation length; its newly laid out fairways, its hazards and its accommo dations will be the "host field" in a few n-enrs for, many western tourna ments. Chairman Tirrill of the fopeka Country club tourhahient committee is making plans for a full season of match play. At no time will the con tests lag. he promises. All ho asks is cooperation on the part of the mem bers. He Says he will have plenty for them to do. Topeka this season will take part in many inter-city mutches. The Coun try club will hold several qualifying rounds for 4-foursome teani play with Lawrence, Leavenworth. Manhattan, Junction City, Kansas City and other cities. Pro Trout is arranging a. plan for handicap qualifications that the teams will not be composed altogether of the star players .of the club. In terest in golf has grown to such an extent that inter-city matches prom ise to draw the crowds that iri the old days attended baseball games. Krvin Nelson, last year's Country club professional, is operating .a golf goods store in Indianapolis. The ICel son clubs are used extensively thruout the middle west. With the membership of the two Topeka clubs filled the inter-club matches this year will attract un usual interest. President Eastman of Shawnee and President Strickland of the Country club are planning to lead many Sweet stickers in the frays this sufnfner. The Shawhee club still leads in the younger players in Topeka. It is the younjr blood that makes championship golf and the Royal and Ancient wise ones are predicting victories for the Highland laddies this year. The Shawnee ringer score, tourney will start immediately. At the Coun try club the ringer will be postponed until the 18 holes are completed. Mid- dleton captured Shawnee's 1921 ringer with a 27 on the nine holes. The Country club ringer died a natural death due to apparent lack of interest. The loss of some of the stately old willows at the Country club will be a shock to the tree loving colony that decorated the verandas in the even ings. The trees were cut out to make room for the new north and South fairways. Many new trees have been planted, however. The Shawnee women are "getting their baking out of way" for a real season of tournaments. At the Coun try club the women seem to be of the opinion that tourneys are unnecessary combat. From the Dudley Spring Training Quarters: The Three Musketeersi Hurley. Felix and GriggSj are going good this year. From Highland Park: Watch out for Middleton, the Crowns and Bailey. Mrs. Ilif Felix and Mrs. Dick Hay den are the early season invincibles at the Country club. Mrs. Hayden became famous last year when she j mads No. I in 45. j The recent fashion show has given j Topek he-golfers several new ideas along decorative lines. But nothing in Kansas ever will equal Afeh Cat lin's pipe. From the number of physicians who have taken tip golf in the last two years it is evident that Topekans will find it convenient to become ill be fore 3 o'clock and after 8.

They will be a combination grass and sand green with the oiled sand around the hole for short putting purposes: This plan offers the player the advantage of approaching to a grass green figur ing on the short roll to the pin Furthermore it carries out the Donald RosS idea of green locations and gives the Shawnee plajers the full play for the sand pits and bunkers. Crow's plan will be watched with consider able interest over the state. On6 day last fall at the Country club Ed-Brackett saw two new elubs just received by Pro Nelson a driver and brassy. He tried out two prac tise balls and knocked them 50 yards. He bought the clubS-thS seventh drivr-brassy set of the season. The next day. he began, to play with his newly acquired hard hitting duet; For eight holes he topped and dug his shots. He ws playTTig with Fred Cole and on the ninth tee he yanked an old twisted shafted battered driver frofn Cole's bag and drove almost to Noi 9 green. "I'll give you my two new clubs for that driver," he told Cole; The latter aceepted. The trade was made; The next day Brackett blew up with his veteran stick and for the rest of- the season and for the present season Cole has been winning frim Brackett with the wooden pair. "Hereafter mv eliib will be given to the caddies," Brackett declared the other day. Sewing circles and bridge parties had nothing ort the current meeting" of the Country club tournament "com mittee when the game or various play ers was discussed. The discussion be came so warm t one time that a $100 wager was made that-Dr. W. N. "West did not shoot four 42 s last season. It is np to Doetor West to produce four of his last year's cards to Settle the argument.

He took six hours of lessons from Pro Trout and Im mediately issued a challenge to Noel V. AVoodj a veteran of several sea sons.

Banning of the steel shafted golf club by the United States Golf association stopped the introduction this spring to goifdom of what was thought to be an ever lasting golf club; at least so far as elasticity the shaft is concerned, said H. Tweetfie, manager of a large ting goods concern: An in ft with a steel core, cov ered witli the conventional wood had been perfected largely thru the re searches of Allen Lard of Washington, D. C. an inventor who won consider able wartime mention thru his aid to the government ia the perfection of guns. The second growth hickory; which forms the shaft of all golf clubs, not only varies considerably in its teper, but the resiliency of the timber begins to decrease from the time it is put in play until its usefulness soon passes and a new club, or at least a new shaft has to be purchased. Mr. Lard undertook the construction of a metal shaft in 1911, having dis covered this frailty of hickory, espe cially as it related to the tortion of the shank. This tortion spring in the shaft takes out the jar that otherwise Would reach the players' hands from the impact of the club head with the ball and give a "SWiet" feel to the stroke. It also keeps the ball in straight flight and helps to give the ball its high trajectory. Mr. Lard finally discovered an al loy of chrome vinadium that answered the purpose and shafts were made with the center hollow and the surface an open fretwork. The club did not take readily, hoWet er, because of the oddity of its construction. Experiments were renewed at much expense; and along with the discovery of a, semi-eternal golf ball, the new arrangement with a steel core was about to be placed on the market when the official body of golf issued its dead death warrant and condemned golfers to keep on replacing their club shafts perennially at a cost of from iio to JU a bagiui. John M. Gilmore. Jr.. publisher of the Wilson County Citizen, Fredonia, spent a little time with Topeka Press club members Friday night. He was on his way to Lawrence for a con ference today with "Scoop" Hill of the state university alumni regarding the editorial association golf tournament, i The news hounds hold their spring golf meet in Lawrence ih May. Gil more is president of the state organization--and Hill is secretary. The state house may organize a foursome to tackle the Santa Fe's Crack golfers. Most likely the repre sentatives of the pee-pul will deter mine supremacy thru an elimination round.

But I am confident, that those who follow me from week tc Week and Who give at least some thought and attention to 'these weekly lessons will at least begin cutting away strokes that me'an the: difference between poor golf and sound, consistent play; Approximately. 100 per cent of those playing golf have certain faults and troubles which they are working to correct. As I have spent the greater part of my life in studying these universal faults and working out remedies- for them. I believe I can do the average player a lot of good if he will only go the full distance witB me ftftd give my, remedies a chance. Over" Fifteen Year"). f might state in the beginning that I came to the Pacific eoast from Eng land fifteen years ago. Since that time. I have instructed and played in the far west, the middle w-est, the east, the south and thruout England and Scotland. So if there is any type of star or duffer that. I have overlooked, it wasn't thru lack of experience or 8p porturiity. I went Irfter my first open cham pionship nine years ago at Buffalo, and I Was beginning to wonder whether I Would ever Win. until I reached the last round at Columbia, when I knew at last the long hunt was river arid thjt I Had arrived. All thru these riihe tournament years I have be6n Working to improve ami develop my bWn game, to" build up- the right sort of philosophy and to bring about greater consistency with every club. The lessons t have learned will be turned over to you including ail the observations I have come upon thru constant playing and instruction. The Ten Most Common Faults. In this first article J wbuid like to give you Something of an outline of what these coming: lessons will be. The main t thing for any instructor in golf is the correction of faults. I have been asked what I considered the ten most common faults in golf on the part of the average player. From long bbservatien, I belieVe they come in about this order: 1. Lifting he head and right shoul der at the moment of Impact, fault due to lack of concentration. 2. Hitting too soon thru over-anx-" ie"ty of over eagerness. 3. Lack of balance at the top bt the swing, With the Weight badly distrib uted. 4. CTiahglng one's thought during the progress of the swing. 8. Attempting to lift the hull with the hands, in place of permitting the club head to go on thru. 5. Lifting the club with the right hand in place of swinging back with the left in control. 7. Pulling across the ball (for which there are several reasons). 8. A too rapid back swing that de stroys all steadiness and rhythm. 9. Standing too long over the ball until one gets rigid t-nd strained. 10. Gripping too tightly trying too hard, in place of using only a normal effort. These are only a few of the faults that I will take up and discuss later ih detail, with corrections and sugges tions that are sure to work. several years the Santa Fe foursome J. R. Koontz. E. L. Copeland, J; M. Conhell and W. W. Strickland have been the pride of the big railway of fice building. Now there is likely to be Some real competition.

Mohler, secretary of the state board of agriculture; Justice Silas Porter ana L. J, Pettijohn, Secretary of state: seems probable. Later the young bloods who use a wicked club, might retire some of the older mem bers iri a qualifying match. Anyway it Will be a game worth watching arid listening. Thirty candidates have reported for the first call of the Columbia univer sity golf team. Intercollegiate golf in the east is becoming a popular sport. One of the chief complaints against mulilcipal golf is the cost of main tenance. For the first year or two this would be a drain on park funds in Topeka but after that the course should be a big source of revenue. The Edgewood course in Chicago, for instance. D9VS from ,00u to-Ib.ouw a year more than maintenance costs. Attd there ar3 many municipal courses in Chicago. American amateurs are hot antici pating a trip to tii-eat Britain this year.

Ten Most IitopoMdnt Things to Mm. We might ho cbrisidef in this same Connection the ten most important things one must learh before he Is out upon the right road, headed in the direction of a good Sound game: 1. Learning to pivot to turn jrour body without moving or shifting your head. 2. Development of right balance at the top of the swing, where the weight is distributed as it Should be. 3. The development of proper tim Ing, whieh is the sole answer to dis tance. 4. The proper relation and position of the right and left elbows during the swing, a most important subject to be dealt with in full; 5. Keeping the head Still While the shoulder and arms are Swinging on thru to complete the stroke (after the first pivoting referred to), 6. Keeping the left arm Straight not only on the back swing, but after the ball is struck.. 7. Letting the weighfc and Swing of the club automatically shift the weight from the right foot to the left without Swaying. 8. Learning how to play ftom hang ing and up slope lies. 9. Playing out of bunkers, traps, rough and other trouble. 10. Making the mental arid physical faculties work together, wtiere With out coordination there can be no im provement. Fnituro Tjeswons. These Skeleton details will give you some line upon the instruction and the suggestions I will make from Week to week in an attempt to give you the basis of a consistent golf game. In addition to this there will be spe cial articles upon grip and stance, put ting, back spin, slicing, hooking, top ping, the greatest holes and the greatest courses I have ever seen, and some of the greatest shots I have seen in championship matches. The material is endless, but I hope to be direct and siriiple and to be of real service to the many thousands who are working so earnestly to build up a respectable game that at least has a speaking acquaintance with par. If we Work together. I am sure I can accomplish this result. Learning the Game. A great golfer once said that it took six years to learn how to play golf and tften six years more to for get what i-ou had learned so you could play automatically. This may be true for the champion. But the duffer can "begin" to show quick improvement if he will only make mind and matter, brain and muscle work together. Iam a greatbelieyer Jn correcting rnental faults first, for unless one has the right type of concentration (which isn't as hard to get as many thfhk) the rest Is of little value. Correct thinking at the correct time is a very big part of good golf, and I don't mean by thai that one must haVe all the brains in the world to build up a first-class game. I dq mean that he or she must make the brain not only take control of the muscles, but also keep control until the stroke is com pleted. For If the fnind" doesn't fule thruout the Stroke, the stroke is going to waste about nine times out of ten. I am confident that after one has passed the first raw stages; that TO per cent of the mistakes come from faulty con centration. So my first lesson is going to be upon the mental side of the game, the most important start that one can make.

Jake is virtually the only billiard star iri the World who has used golf to improve his work with the ivories, but his title as best in the world at the indoor sport and his brilliant plav in the recent championship match with Willie Hoppe, for which he trained almost entirely with golf play Indoor and outdoor, support the champions contentions that one game helps the other. "My father started me at billiards When I was barely able to handle a cue." Jake said recently, "and the chief advice given me by billiard play ers eyer since has been to protect my hands by staying away from all outdoor Sports tn which the hands are used. "When I took up golf most of the ivory pushers shook their heads and mattered: 'There eoes a fine Billiard player ruining his chance Because, he can't keep from being a kid.' I didn't argue, with them, But I stuck to my golf, for t was sure that golf not only would not hurt my billiard work, but would improve it. "A billiard player must have ex tremely supple wrists and fihgers and free-Working shoulder joints. The long swing the follow thru used irt ariv ing and in ifon work was just the thing, I found, to keep my -shoulder Joints Working nicely; "This part of my. golf also helped keep my elbows' free and greatest of all, perhaps it gave me splendid wd:st exercise, tt.. twist 6f the body Irt the follow thru being Just the thing to enable me to twist rriV body over a fbilliard table in getting at Shots hard to reach.

Wherever Mamie Smith, the pop ular colored phonograph star appears her costumes have created a sensa tion. Mamie is fast gaining a repu tation as one of the most magnificent ly dressed stars in the w-orld today. for it Is doubtful if any other star of the operatic or musical-comedy wortld ever appeared in more gorgeous costumes. Mamie Smith's income from her phonograph records and her concert tours is said to be one of the largest earned by any public artist, and she is thus enabled to spend a small fortune each season on her gowns and Jewels. One of Mamie's most talked of new costumes is the new "Peacock Gown," of flame co'ored sequins, trimmed with gold and jade green, which was designed by Madam Hammer of Paris and New York. Another costume which has attracted -wide attention is her li'.ue and orange jeweled gown, which in iiself cost $1,000. while the most elaborate and beautiful of all Mamie's costumes is said to be her silver mirror gown, which is described as a dazzling ray of s.lver metal and jewels, touched in color with tiny pink French rosea of a. delicate shade. Mamie appears in a different cos tume for every song she sings and each gown has been especially de signed to fit the personality ot the sinirer and the character of the song. Mamie Smith will wear these beau tiful gowns in her appearance here on Tuesday evening, in fact she wears a different gown with each song num ber.

Li'l ol" ."Yawk comes to Topeka for information and guidance, now and aain. Robert D. McGiffert. city commis sioner of parks and health, has re ceived a letter from Joseph P. Hen nessy. commissioner of parks for the Borough of the Bronx. New York. There were a number of things that Hennespy wanted to know about run ning parks, and he figured that Mc O.tfert could probably enlighten him. The camp stoves which are placed in Topeka's city parks and are in use during the rummer from 5 o'clock in the morning, in the preparation of sunrise breakfasts, till midnight, for late steak roasts, had attracted the New Y'ork commissioner's particular attention. He wanted to know all about them, and Commissioner Mc Giffert will send him blue prints of the stoves. Then Hennessy de-Mred to know how much acreage there is In To peka's park system there are 297 acres, for the benefit of Topeka citi zens who don't know and how much money the department spends in a year. Even more important, he wanted to know how the city raises that money. That despicable insect, the park vandal, has been causing the New York commissioner a good deal of unre t. and he wanted to know how Commissioner McGiffert manages the police protection end of the park sys tem, and whether any vandals ever trouble him.

Was the fact that duplicate numbered Liberty bonds were put into circulation by the employes of the United States treas ury, at the engraving plant, respon sible for the wholesale house cleaning recently ordered by President Hard ing? Were the bonds really issued? If so, was the duplicate numbering done intentionally, or was it the product of faulty machinery? These questions are to be answered by the testimony by the officials dis charged, who are to appear soon be fore congress in a demand ,for ex planation of their discharge, it was declared here today. Under Secretary of the Treasury Gil bert has announced that certain lib erty bonds have been issued with du plicate numbers, but states that the numbering was done by machine, and that the United States will suffer no loss from the issuance of those bonds, as corrections already are under way. Other high officials of the treasury are quoted as saying, however, that testimony of some of the thirty-two executives who recently received their walking papers will show that such js not the case. It was originally charged by Fourth Assistant Registrar of the Treasury J. W. McCarter that thru the duplica tions, millions of dollars of bonds had been fraudulently issued. That the investigation of the bu reau's affairs would be searching was made plain when Louis A. Hill, new bureau director, called last week at fthe White House and de'clared he would designate 100 of the most trusted employes of. the bureau to work with employes of the department of justice on the investigation. The treasury also has promised an in quiry into the property accounts of the "bureau. Deputy Assistant Treasurer Tait has been appointed to head a committee of interdepartmental employes, ap pointed to represent all the govern ment activities concerned. According to officials of the Uni versal Service News bureau here, af fidavits have been shown them stating that one bond was raised to the extent of $67,000. its face value as well as its number being changed. .The af fidavit was made out by 'a woman, according to officials of the news service.

CARPEMKIt TO SPEAK t Washburn College Faculty Member To Address Laymen's League. "Is the Human Race Improving?"' Regarding this question, on which he is to epeak before the open forum meeting in the First Unitarian church. 914 Topeka boulevard, at 8 o'c'ock Sunday evening. Prof. Charles E. Car penter, of Washburn college, says that progress in civilization may take place while at the same time the human race may be deteriorating. The edu cation and training of men. he savs. does not necessarily mean race im- j provement. Intellectually, morally, or j socially. I Professor Carpenter says that pres- ent social and economic standards and ideals have brought about a fecundal j selection which is working for the de- terioration of the race. -At the same time, an Intelligent understanding of j these (factors may make if possible j for man to control them, and to turn i evoiution from its downward direction J into an upward trend, for the im- provement of the human stock. Cer- j tain phases of biology, particularly eu- genics. are incomparably the most Im- j portant studies ot man. for the future benefit of the race, the statement of Professor Carpenter. 1 Professor Carpenter's address will be Riven under the auspices of the Unitarian Laymen's League, and a general invitation is extended to the oublic to attend.
