BY CORINNE FRAZIER. OUR! FOUR! (Golf for “here It puzzled me, just at firs F we come.”) t—that expression. “Twenty-three” seemed much more appropriate, as they appeared to want every- thing in sight to fade from the landscape when they sang itgout. But it is all clear to me now, since I have played the game myself. I caught on without even asking any It isn't slang at all, you see. It “here comes the four of us.” It carri body get out of the way and give us “room to play.” in fours on a golf course. It seems t Golf is a lovely game, once you get | started. But there appears to be some little difficulty about getting started. Personally, I didn't have so much trouble hitting the ball, but 1 had a hectic time finding it after it was hit. Hitting it and hitting it where you want it to go are two entirely different things, T find. Of course, I didn’t always hit it the first time T aimed at it—not as a gen- eral thing. But the men 1 played with were very polite. and let me have an- other turn every time I missed. They gave me four or five sticks to use, and for the life of me 1 couldn't see why, for they all looked just alike, except that one had a wooden piece on the end and the others had some sort of metal. Her Clubs Made of Lead. One man referred to his as “br: and another called his an “iron,” so T gathered that they make them out of pretty nearly anything that comes handy. 1 think mipe must have been lead. as they were very heavy. Fortu nately T did not have to carry them all at once, however. There a little boy named ““Caddy” something or other who car- ried my bag all over the place for me, and it helped a lot, except for one thing. He kept wanting me to use a different stick every time I went to hit the ball. T liked him to do the | carrying, but I think I could have done wighout so much variety in sticks. T would just begin to get used to one stick when this youngster would step up and say, “Aw, use this one. lady.” He was a nice child, though a trifle dirty as to hands and face, and I didn’t like to he unaccommodating. so 1 usually did_what he asked. but it threw me off my game considerably, T am sure. Why. in tennis T would no more think of changing rackets that way than of fiving to the moon. It would | simply ruin my strokes! Not That Kind of Tea. I notice that they do a lot of talking about tea in golf, but they never pro- duce the goods at all. I arrived and departed from nine “teas” during our round vesterday and was as dry as a bone when we fin- ished. My hopes were raised on the fifth hole, when one man asked me if Could I use it? My throat was nearly| parched. | But I soon discovered that his re. | mark had nothing to do with liquid| refreshments at all It was merely some more golf talk. What he offered me was a reddish bit of wood, which ! he stuck In the ground to balance m ball on top of, instead of the little sand piles 1 had been using. I was very much disappointed, as 1 was dreadfully thirsty. Besides, T en- joyed building those little sand piles and never would have changed if I had known what he was talking about. They use some awfully queer terms in that game of golf. Some of them sound like F street slang—"mashies,” “roughs,” “birdies,” and all that sort of thing, you know. 1 never did catch ‘What She Went Around In. Speaking of queer thing: a4 man as queerest question. He said you go around it in? 1 hate sarcasm, so I told him po- litely that I went around it in just what I had on. Fancy asking that, when T was miles from home and couldn't have changed my clothes if T had wanted to. And, besides, there is no place provided on a golf course for a change of costume. It {s just an open stretch of ground without signs of habitation of any sort. But perhaps he didn’t understand about golf courses. I didn't myself at one time. There was one thing about that links we played on yesterday that is bevond my comprehension, even now. It was a beautiful spot owned by a well known country club, so there really didn’'t seem to be any excusej for it all, but, do you know, the course was most frightfully neglected! There were positive bare spots right in the middle of the links, to say nothing of rocks and holes—regular gullies, mind you! Grass Cutters Are Careless. And, worst of all, the grass was cut in a shockingly careles fashion. There were several beautifully kept stretches of lawn and right beside them, where the men who mow the lawn could not have helped but to see them, were stretches of overgrowth and weeds that would have disagraced a back yard—much less a country club green. 1t reminded me of the job a small boy makes when washing his face. 1 am convinced that the conditlon of the course had a lot to do with my trouble in getting started. It made things so much more difficult, vou know. I would be going along beau- tifully, then all at oncé that stupid ball of mine would land right in the middle of a sand pile presumably left ed me the “What did s For Smart Sum points — and it Taltige Jones . jand smiled sweet After the | one. means just what it says: “Four,” es with it the suggestion that every- One always plays o be the rule. there for the benefit of golfers who bring their children along.

And then, this caddy child gave me some broken sticks to use. At least one of them was broken. He called it @ “putter.” But I never could put-er in with it, somehow. It may not have been actually broken, but it was terribly bent, just above the iron piece on the end. I really didn’t feel badly at all about missing the hole with that bent stick. How could I be expected to straight with a crooked stick? As far as I could see I was winning most of the time yesterday. in spite of just getting started. At least, I hit more often than any one else. It seemed to be my turn most of the time. But T think those men I played with made & mistake on the score.
