ARG s g cram ber 2 : From the top clean down to the tpe? BILL’S HANDICAP TOO' HEAVY Of Course He Couldn't Play Golf With Such an Opponent and Such . _a Gallery. Bill is a Presbyterian by marrlage. Those of us who have heard him play golt would never have guessed that he had uny such church connection what- ! ever. His language when he misses a shot (and he misses quite a number of times during an afternoon) is what might be termed of the exflosive and highly Irreverent variety. Bill appeared at the club the other afternoon with a friend whom he intro- duced as Rev, Mr. Sitnderson—accent- ing the Reverend as though he were afrald we were going to miss it and treat him as one of his ordinary com- panions. PersonaHy, 4t isn’t necessary to tip us off in advance that the stranger Is a minister. But Bill seemed to be afrald of us, although not quite so afraid as we were of him, i “You and the minister going to play together?” we asked. “Yep,” sald he. “Join us?’ “You bet” sald we. “If you and a minister can go 18 holes and you don't explode we want to see it.” Bill began gamely. His drive was full of slice and his fron shots were mostly all turf, and he put on a stage grin that was marvelous to behold. Toward the middle of the afterncon he trled whistling, switching to hum- ming, tackled silence and reverted to plain grinning. Me dubbed a shot on the twelfth hole and snid; “Good night!” “That isn' of us remarked. e missed a putt for a win on the fourteenth and whistled. hat you said when you dubbed one lere last Saturday,” one in Jewish soclety at the time of, Qur. |, Lord's earthly mipistry,.

In politics the Sadducees were tr'mmers, adjusting | their practices to prevailing ceaditions. They were the priestly-aristocratic party, who dliled themselves always with the ruling power, even when that power was autl-national in its alms, In Our Lord’s time the name indi- cated differences which were religious ag well as polftical.
