Horace Seybold was a Tired Busi- ness Man. Through the week he kept pretty well fagged out with a deep mental and physical depression. But Saturday at naon He quit work and rushed out joyfully to the golf course to give his shattered nerves a rest and his mental depression an | uplift. Chapter Two, Standing on the first tee, Horace Seybold looked out across the soft green fairway, white-tinted in | patches from the May Snow of the apple blossoms, and all the buoyancy of his soul rose to the surface. *“This,” said Horace, ‘is nothing short of The Life.” So saying, he promptly teed up the ball, took a wild swing and saw it bound blithly into a heavy underbrush about 80 feet away. Four ne niblick shots finally got him safely out and three screaming brassies, followed by two nice approach shots and three wel- night perfect putts finally got him a 13 for the hole. Chapter Three, On the secand hole Mr. Scibold did not top his tee, but he sliced it out of bounds. The only topping he did with his machie, where he finally succecded in plunking the ball into a water hazard guarding the green. Still, in spite of this tough luck, he managed to eke out a 12, which was only 8 aver par. Chapter Four. From the third tee Mr, Seybold reither topped nor sliced. He varied | the monotony a trifle by hooking one into a deep trap, where he whaled away until his’ niblick got too hot 1o handle. Playing perfectly after he had gotten out, he would have had a par for this hole if the par had been 41 instead of 4. Chapter Five, Mr. Seybold went out in 64. He wanted to stay out, but he was block- ing the course and so had to start | | in. When he finally got 8 on the | 18th hold, given him a 143 for the | round, his soul was bleeding, his | nervous system was torn in several ‘ltwaim his whole week had been spoiled and he was sore on existence, | including the hereafter. He had | come out to gambol on the green ard had spent nearly three hours tnderground jousting in the sand. Horace Seybold, as we said abov was a Tired Business Man. wonder.
