Things for You to Consider When You Buy Furs The price of furs is regulated by the economic law of supply and demand. If the makers get their orders before the big rush begins they can naturally work on a closer margin, and the retailer is able to buy more cheaply than if he waits until the regu- lar season has started. Another thing, it ‘en- ables him to pay more attention to workman- ship, and probably most important of all is the choice of skins. Remember, Furs them- selves are not manufac- tured—you must choose from the supply of skins that is at hand. Naturally those who select first get the choice of the better skins. You will have the benefit of all this in the Woodward & LothropSummer Sale of Furs-which begins Monday, August 1. Buying Furs presents much the same problem as buy- ing diamonds. The average person is not able to_differ- entiate in the quality. He does the next best thing—he buys from a merchant in whom he can place entire con- fidence. We offer only Furs that are worthy of your confidence. i Mahogany-Finished Serving Trays Specially Priced $1.50 Particularly desirable for serv- ing cool iced drinks during the hot days.

If you woul from it a clover bloom. Place of the Pelham Country Club, in the has won the national open champio: Barnes did not play a single shot, drive or putt without that clover- bloom 4n his mouth. “It is always good to have some- thing to chew on,” he explained at the Columbia Country Club after his final 72 yesterday afternoon which landed for 'him the gonfalon of golf by the wide margin of nine strokes over his nearest opponent. “The only thing about it is that I don’t chew it,” added Barnes. Ted Ray always plays with a pipe in his mouth. Barnes believes in clover, and .his confidence has not been misplaced. He has won. the prize coveted by all Americans, and today the chief golfing trophies of England and America repose in these United States. Dinuner for Leaders. Last night a dinner party was given to Long Jim and to Jock Hutchison, winner of the British open. Mr. and Mrs. Tom Moore of this city, devotees of the game, were the hosts, and the guest list included virtually all of the stars of what has been conceded to be the greatest open championship ever held in this country. Freddie McLeod, tiny star of the Columbia Country Cub, the host or- ganization for the championship this ar, was there, sharing the honors of second place Walter Hagen, one of the most spectacular golfers the United States has produced and him- self an open champion of a few years ago. McLeod also is an open winner, and so the first three places in the tournament went to_veterans of the game. It was Jim Barnes' first open championship, but if his form of the last few weeks holds good it will not be his last by any means. An analysis of Barnes' play in the present open illustrates the meaning of consistent golf. Counting the qualifying eighteen holes, Barnes played five rounds of the difficult Columbia course. His aggregate score for the five rounds was 358, or two strokes under four to the. hole It is doubtful if this record ever ha been, equaled. The man who can ‘age four strokes to the hole for a single round is considered a golfer of extraordinary ability, but to play five consecutive rounds at two less than par places Barnes in the miracle , class, Monotony of Good Play. | His score for the four rounds of | championship play was 289, about four or five strokes better than any one thought would be made in the tournament. His best ball for the four rounds was a 58, and the con- sistency of his game is shown by the fact that these figures represent a 29 out and a 29 in. Barnes played | 50 well that his rounds almost bor- | dered on the monotonous. The gal- leries began to crowd around the players who were more apt to be in difficulties than about the champion, Playing as fine a two-day session of golf as the most pessimistic eritic of the ancient and honorable game could desire, James M. Barnes of the Pel- bham Bay, N. Y. Counfry Club won the open national championship on the course of the Columbia Country Ciub here late tod with a score of 259 strokes for 72 } Nine strokes in wake came Wal- ter Hagen of New York, champion in 1919, and Fred McLeod. profe: sional of the local course, each With a score of 298 The complete scores of those who went through the 72 holes play in the | national open championship follows: James M.

Today's meeting differed from thdee usually held in this country. - Like the four previous international meet- ings, scoring was on first places only, except in case of a tie, when second places were to be checked. There were ten events, without trial heats or_preliminary efforts. The shotput was contested for the first time at’ these games. Only one dash—the 100-yard—and one hurdles race—120-yard, over high, barriers— were n.rmgged. and the pole vault and other events. The Englishmen hoped to obtain their point credits principally in the running _events, quarter-mile, half- mile, mile and two-mile runs. The ‘American collegians counted on cut- | fing in for at least one of those first i places, to win also all but one of the Igem events, consisting of broad jump, high jump, shotput and hammer |throw. The deciding point was re- garded as likely to develop in the 100-yard 'dash, the two-mile run or the hammer throw. Capt. H. G. Rudd, the Oxford and South African runping star. was the i principal factor in the British hopes. lBe was_to attempt to gain victory in the 100, 440 and 880 yard races. G. C. Krogness of Harvard was also an entrant in three events—hurdles, broad jump and high jump. —_— MISSISSIPPI STATE LEAGUE. Meridian, 4; Jackson, 3. Clarkedale, 10; Greeawood, T o BY FAIRPLAY. matter.

ACCURACY AND A CLOVERIGLOWNG THBUTE g OF BARNES, WIN President Praises Barnes for Spo; 1d play miracle golf it is a simple the clover bloom in your mouth,»gn to the first tee and knock the ball a mile. By following these simple instructions, Jim Barnes extenuated star metropolitan district of New York, nship, and today is the proud pos- sessor of the cup which Ted Ray of England took away from these shores last summer after playing phenomenal golf at Toledo. whose play was so deadly in its ac- curacy. This is the Pelham star's first cham- pionship, although he has been bid- ding for the golden heights for eight or ten years. There was reason to belive he might win the British open this year, for during the opening rounds at §t. Andrews, the classic course of Scotland, which knew the ancient game in its infancy, Barnes \';‘ns the most consistent player on the links. His first three rounds were made in 74 each. and then on the last round he weakened, the last six holes tak- ing his score up to $0 and throwing him just above the winning limit. For three months prior to the British tournament Barnes, suffering from carbuncles, had been unable to play. His St. Andrews’ form held good in the present tournament. and he romped away from his field from the very first eighteen holes. Fifth Hole a Hopdoo. Bobby Jones of Atlanta lost @ won- derful opportunity to be up among the first three in the open champion- ghip by getting trapped on his last round in the “devil's half acr the new fifth hole at Columb was said by the “hard-boiled” pro- fessionals, as they are called in Washington, that the yawning trap at this hole, measuring ninety yards from prism to prism, would not bother the good golfer. But in the end it took its toll. Some of the cards turned in contained telltale elevens at this_hoodoo hole, and on his last round Bobby Jones was one of the unfortunates. An unhappy nine at this hole placed him virtually hors de combat. . It enabled Chick Evans to beat him out by one stroke for amateur hon- ors in the open tournament, just as Chick was able to top the Atlan youthful star by a stroke last year at Toledo. Poor Showing of British. The American open tournament was notable among other things for the poor showing of the British trio which came to this country to take awa; the troph! if possible. Abe Mitchell, the acknowledged star of English professional golfers, picked up and quit the tournament on his second round. George Duncan, one- champion, showed a gamer disposition and stuck to the last, although the best he could do was a tle for eighth place. Joe Kirk- wood of Australia ‘f:uled to finish al the first twelve. Visiting players and golf writers from all sections of the country voted the Columbia tournament the best conducted for many a long vear. The arrangements were W 1Inight perfect, the galleries were well be- haved and showed a keen apprecia- tion of good golf. (Copyright, 1921.) Detroit .
