BY HERBERT THE game of golf, says John Monteith, jr., can be made much less expensive and at the same time more enjoyable 10 those who play. And Monteith is not a professional golfer. He is o scientist. Until a year agd he was connected with the division of forage crops of the United of Agriculture. He knows so much about the business side of golf, how- ever, that the Government wes persuaded to give him a leave of absence that he might devote his ume in helping G. A. grow better grass for pumng greens and fairways. It is not an uncommon thing for golfers to become thoroughly disgusted with the turf around their courses. More than one club management has been changed on account of this. It is Monteith's job to eliminate this condi- tion so far as possible. Bobby Jones is one of the strongest supporters of Monteith’s work. Bobby | He has been complaining that he is not able to do his best putting on the Bermuda grass greens that prevail in the South. He wants them changed, and has appealed to Monteith. In an effort to aid the famous golfer Monteith is endeavoring to have located at Atlanta what he calis a turf garden. By means of this turf garden, he will be able to find out just what grass is best suited to the soil and climatic condi- tions of the South, and club ofticials in the section may be governed accord- ingly. Last season there were established 15 new demonstration turf gardens on golf courses in different sections of the country. These are supported and cared for by the local clubs, under the direc- tion of the greens section of the U. B. G. A. They are at Minneapolis, Chicago, Grand Rapids, Detroit, Pittsburgh, Bos- ton, New York, Atlantic City and Rich- mond. Experiments of all kinds are carried on at the turf gardens. Grass seeds for putting greens and fairways are planted and watched carefully. Various kinds of fertilizers are tried out, and those found to be the most satisfactory are recorded. Culting experiments are con- cucted and the best length for grass on the greens fairways determined. And the tless other details neces- sary to the maintenance of golfers’ good dispositicns are ‘attended to. Monteith says one of the reasons that golf is described as “a rich man s game” is the fact that too little attention has been given the turf problem by club officials. Hundreds of thousands of dollars have been spent needlessly on golf courses. A club located in the South will send a golfer to Braeburn or another course. ‘There he will putt on greens that are a source of everlasting joy. He returns home and persuades his club to provide the same grezns. Several hundreds of dollars will be sunk to no avail. No ac- BEAUTY CHATS WOMAN'S PAGE?

Representative David Hogg of In- diana believes that in his district is a site of national historical significance that has been neglected too long. He wants Congress to do something about it. The site is the grave of one Samuel Wilson in a cemetery in the town of ‘This Samuel . Wilson, says , is the man by whose so- ‘Uncle Sam,” the United sum of America is popularly ated. He has introduced a bill authorizing an appropriation of $25,000 to erect a suitable memorial. Mr. Hogg knows a lot about the his- tory of Sam Wilson -nd how his so- briquet was applied to designate the United States. Samuel Wilson was a quartermaster in the Government commissary at N. Y., during the War of 1812, commissary was located in the store of Elbert Anderson. As each Government consignment came to him he would lmpect it and place the mark “E A U S” on the pack- ages. They would then be taken to the docks for shipment. One day a new wharf hand asked a lonxshoremln the meaning of the mark: wlq told it meant that the consign- ment had been approved by “Uncle Sam” and came from the store owned by Elbert Anderson. The story was told up and down the river, and in time everything that ‘per- tained to the United States was pop- ularly designated “Uncle Sam.” And the title has lived to this day. There are, of course, oth- er th-orle' Mr. -Hogg says that “Uncle Sam” was a typical American citizen, representative. of American ideals, end a staunch de- fender of Amer- accomparided Lewis and Clark on their expedition in. 1804- 05. He was cited for gallantry for his part as a quar- |er-gunner on th‘ United States ship Con: '-:&fl in he historic battle with tha Bri ish vesscl Guerriere in 1812. In civil life he. was both & tailor and a doctor. He was 100 years and 3 days old at the time of his death, have ing been born just two weeks after the first shot was fired for American inde- pendence. He died May 7, 1875. “Uncle Sam” was the father of three daughters and seven sons. Six of the sons served in the forces of the United States during the Civil War. ‘The “Uncle Sam” memorial is not the only monument that Representative Hogg is trying to get from Congress. “Mad” Anthony Wayne, a hero of the Revolution, holds a strong appeal for the Hoosler, and he has taken up the cudgels in his behalf. He wants a memorial to Gen. Wayne erected on the site of old Fort Wayne, at Fort Wayne, Ind. He would have Congress be more liberal with *“Mad” Anthony than with “Uncle Sam.” No less than sloo 000 would be appropriated for this marker. BY EDNA KENT FORBES Springtime Diet. Diet is more important now than at any other time of ine year. You have beeti" eating heavier foods during the Winter. You must have done so in or- der to make your blood thick and supply your body with the heat necessary to resist the cold weather. Now that the necessity for that is passed, the blood which is too thick causes the skin to break out in ugly marks or makes the stomach actually distend, and in any case creates a great deal of discomfort. ‘The only thing to do is to bring your diet down so it is less rich in calories. As we said yesterday, vegetables and fruit are ideal; foods that have bulk and that do not tax the digestive powers. ‘These thins the blood, purily it, clear the skin, and if the figure’s too fat, reduce the weight. This sort ¢ diet acts both ways. ‘There are an extraordinary number of women who are inchecs and inches too stout around the waist and who cannot reduce a distended stomach merely be- cause they never digest their food prop- erly and the stomach is actually en- larged by gas. I know this sounds aw- ful, but women go year after year in this condition, piling up flesh some- times, filling their systems with poisons at other times, letting their figures lcse slenderness. and grace, merely because they eat the wrong sort of foods. Try a diet for a few days which is almost all liguid. Coffee or tea for breakfast, with a bolled egg and one piece of toast; midmorning, if you feel unbearably hungry, a cup of clear bouil- lon and a small cracker; lunch, vege- table soup or one of the delicious peas- ant soups containing all the leftovers with cheese grated over the top and a bit of toast, a cup of tea about 4 o’clock, and dinner of soup and toast or a salad and toast. This diet will break up chronic constipation, if you suffer from that, by the way. F.

A Sermon for Today BY REV. JOHN R. GUNN. When a Man's Educated. . Text: ‘“Learn ‘to do well.”—Is,, 117, No longer does the necessity for ap education have to be argued ‘anywhere. The one who knows has the decided advantage always over the one who does not know. Knowledge is power, always and everywhere. But to be recognized as an educated man, one must have something more than knowledge. He must have that wisdom which teaches him how rightly to use his knowledge. He must be edu- cated not only in the material sclences, but in the higher science of moral and spiritual life. He must not only have an educated head, but an educated heart. He must have a trained heart and will, as well as a trained mind. John Ruskin states the matter as fol- lows: “Education does not mean teach- ing people what they do not know. It means teaching them to behave as they do not behave. It is not teaching the youth the shapes of letters and the tricks of numbers, and: then leaving them to turn their arithmetic to roguery, and their. literature to lust. It means, on the contrary, tralning them into the perfect exercise and kingly continence of their bodies and souls.” “Learn to do well.” Therein is the essence of true education. This in. volves soul culture as well as mental culture. And soul culture calls for re- ligious education. No one can be said to be educated in the full sense of the word, unless he is educated religiously. The real determining factor of any man's education lies in his motives. And a man's motives are determined by his moral and spiritual training. Therefore, without training, with the resultant development of his” re- liglous nature, -no mns :aucaum is complete.
