WHAT IS GOLF? Golf is a form of work made expensive enough for a man to enjoy it, says the Gro- cer’s;Advoeate. It is physical and mental exertion made attracive by the fact that you have to dress for it in a $200,000 clubhouse. Golf is what letter-carrying, ditch-dig- ging and carpet-beating would be if those three tasks had to be performed on the | same hot afternoon in short pants and col- ored socks by ‘gouty-looking gentlemen who required a different implement for every mood. Golf is the simplest looking game in the world when you decide to take it up, and the toughest looking after you have been at it ten or twelve years. “The game is played on carefully select- éd grass with little white balls and as many ¢labs as the player can afford. These little balls cost from seventy-five cents to $25.00 and it is possible to support a fam- ily of ten people (all adults) for five months on the money represented by the balls lost by some golfers in a single af- ternoon. A golf course has eighteen holes, sev- enteen of which are unnecessary and put in to make the game harder. A “hole” is a tin cup in the center of a “green”. A “green” is a small parcel of grass costing about $1.98 a blade and usually located between a ‘brook and a couple of apple trees, or a lot of “unfinished excavation.” The idea is to get the golf ball from a given point into each of the eighteen cups in the fewest strokes and the greatest number of words. The ball must not be thrown, pushed or carried. It must be propelled by about $200.00 worth of curious looking imple- ments, especially designed to provoke the owner. Each implement has a_ specific pur- pose and ultimately some golfers get to know what that purpose is. | They are the exceptions. After the final, or eighteenth hole, the golfer adds up his score and stops when lie has reached eighty seven. © He then has a swim, a pint of gin, sings “Sweet Adeline” with six or eight other perfect liars and calls it the end of a perfect day— tnd. that is that! dl WHO 18 EDUCATED? - (Leader, Wellington, Texas) Amidst the confusion among various schools of thought. regarding present-day education, it is really difficult to find .a satisfactory yardstick with which to Measure that ‘elusive individual, the educated man. ‘ Many hold the view that no one is truly educated unless he is familiar with the classics, proficient’ in several lan- guages, living and dead, versed in higher mathematics, and so on. Another school, while recognizing the desirability of a elassical education when circumstances permit, denies that the classicists have license to lord it over their more practical brethern, or to lay exclusive claim to real education, In this connection a thought éx- pressed by the Boston philanthropist, ‘Ed- ward A. Filene, is pertinent., He declares that “the edueated mind totlay is the mind which best learns how. to use the knowl- edge in existence, particularly those truths which apply to the thing which he is do- ing.” And that seems to be a very good definition.” t OUR CITIES “IN BONDAGE” (Panama American, Panama) It is not only in international finance that debt acts as a crashing weight. Local governments, when you stop to think about it, are crippled by debt just as badly—jf not a little more so. The finances of a typical middle west- ern city were studied recently, and it was discovered that 54 cents out of every tax dollar were being used for debt services. Only 46 cents were left for government operations, and any attempted economy tMmeastres would have to leave the greater part of the city’s expenditures completely untouched. Few cities operate on a pay-as-you-go basis. The bond issue, in many cases, is an essential part of city finance operations; but that it has been used far too often is beyond argument. A city that is deeply in debt is hamstrung in any effort to fe- duce expenses. “Daily Cross-word Puzzle : Secccceesecvesocececoccconsstocccccococearecccess ACROSS 1. Maiden . Containers. :0.
