NEW. RRITAIN DAILY HERALD, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1016. SCENES AT SHUTTLE MEADOW LINKS HOW TO REDUCE YOUR WEIGHT| A SIMPLE, SAFE, RELIABLE WAY. “People who are over-burdened with superfluous fat, know only too well the discomfort and ridicule that over- stout people have to bear. If you are carrying around five or ten pounds of unhealthy fat you are unnecessarily weakening your vital or- gans and are carrying a burden which destroys the beauty of your figur There is no need of anyone suffering from superfluous fat. If you want to reduce your weight in a simple, safe and reliable way, without starvation diet or tiresome exercise, here is a test worth trying. Spend as much time as you can in the open air, Preathe deeply and get from The Clark & Brainerd Co., or any good druggist a box of oil of korein capsules; take one after each meal and one before retiring at night. Weigh vourself once a week so as to know just how fast you are losing weight and don’t leave off the treat- « ment or even skip a single dose until you are down to normal. Oil of korein is absolutely harm- less, is pleasant to take, and helps di- gestion. Even a few days’ treatment *has been reported to show & notice- able reduction in weight, footsteps become lighter, your Wwork seems easier and a lighter and more buoyant feeling takes possession of your whole being. Every person who suffers from ssuperfluous fat should give this treat- ment a trial. =g e — A long sweep through the cedars with a deep trap and bunker to catch unwary second shots, character- izes the “18th.” The green lies atop the knoll in the middle background. 1t The Solemn Grand'eulf /\\ The cup will lie about back of the crest of this 16th.

This highest form of music is fittingly interpreted on these three beautiful Columbia Records: THE MESSIAH. (Hindel) Comfort Ye My A 5506 The Ghinaman’s Way There are many high-arched stono bridges in China, with steep stone steps on both sides, leading over dried-out creeks that have mot seen water for centuries These bridges ‘‘are ' crumbling down, di- lapitated, and often cannot be crossed without actual danger. Yet the Chinamen still cross these bridges carrying their heavy load, climbing the steep steps up one side, and down the other, just as their fathers did, and their grandfathers, and their great-great-grandfathers. It would not Sceur to them that there is a shorter nnd more convenient way right across the dry riverbed. Years and years ago there were no specialists, The family doctors attend- ed to every ailment of the human body. But with the advent of the spe- eialist things began ‘to change. A spe- cialist has made a special study just of one certain branch of medical science. In this line he is an expert. I am a specialist in Nervous and Chronic Diseases. In this branch of medical science I have acquired spe- ¥cial experience, and when you consult me, you get the benefit of it. Do you want to travel the road to health the Chinaman’s way, loaded with your heavy burden of disease? Hadn’t you better take the short cut? It's quick- er, and therefore less expensvie—and it’s safer, too. DR. CLINTON J.

NEW LINKS WILL BE READY IN JUNE Shuttle Meadow Club Can Boast of Excellent Course Those who are wont to meet and fraternize with the famous Coicnel Bogey, enemy of golfers the world over, have reported in various club houses that the colone! has of late adopted a cheerier ascr'be the cause to no than the new golf links now construction in the southwestern sec- tion of this city. found life any too full of joy since the TUnited States has undergone a strong injection of the golf germ— he has met defeat often, even the humble duffer is coming strongly to the fore and is wrestling with the col- onel manfully upon every green. But it is reliably reported that after a visit to the Shuttle Meadow links the old gentleman’s eyes have cleared and his mouth is again wreathed in a smile of confidence. 'Twill take a foe man worthy of his steel, one with strong arm and accurate golf to even endanger the reputation of the “Oid Un” upon the hills and glens of the Shuttle Meadow cou And as for the duffer, the Uncle Bunke: of the course, trouble awaits in myraid places upon every hole. The prac- ticed instinct of the expert has pre- pared ditches, bunkers and pitfal every slice and hook; for every short drive still another stroke must he sac- rificed; for every approach a pitch shot is necessitated and for the un- wary putter, rolling greens lay wait. Pity the duffer, brethren of the nineteenth hole, his Nemesis is shortly to arrive. Long will be the hours he will spend upon the Shuttle Meadow links, yea, even upon the first hole, Laid out by an imported expert, prepared by a gang of 100 men under the capable eye of Orrin Smith and his assistants, planted with grass seed of the finest quality, plowed, har- rowed, raked, watered, drained and petted by practiced hands, the cedar ridges and stone-filled valleys of the land south of Shuttle Meadow ave- nue are yielding its returns and-short- ly one of the finest golf courses, bar- ring none, in thig country or abroad, will be ready for use. Tt is sald that the links will be ready to welcome the golfer, if it may be called a welcome, by June of next year. Certain it is that no labor or effort is being wast. ed in getting the course ready and at this time the grass on a number of the greens and fairways is sturdily breaking through the ground, giving promi of fine greens and weii- turfed approaches. The layout of the course allows for sworn bearing and less reason under The colonel Las not the construction of a club house in its center, nine holes lying upon each side of the club. Rither nine may be played from the house or a stop made at the house between the ninth and tenth, for any article which the care- less golfer has omitted to place in his bag or on his trip before finishing the eighteen. The club house, for which land has already been broken, will lie at a point about 200 yards south from Rhinedecker's there the first hole leads north and west for the first nine, circling through the valley south of Shuttle Meadow avenue and in a rough circle. The ninth comes back to'the club house. From this point it is “south- ward ho” for the second nine, again circling around for a long eighteenth and home. Tennis courts will be laid out upon the northern side of the automobile entrance not many yards from the club house. land. From Like the modern course, and utter- ly unlike any courses in this imme- diate vicinity, the putting greens will all be “natural greens,” rolling to or from the cup. Not only must the golfer “put” truly, but he must mak allowances for the roll in every in- stance, which, of course, complicates matters greatly. Pits surround near- ly all of the greens to catch the short or long approach and ‘rolling up” from off the green, with a putter, will be a practical impossibility. Habits of - this kind, bred upon the gentle courses of the neighborhood, will have to 'be eliminated before even décent scores are reported. Starting last spring, immediately after it became apparent that the peo- | ple of the city were willing and anx- s for | in jous to support a country club larger in scope than any local organization, plans were made by the directors of the newly formed corporation to pre- pare for the golfers on the land which the Shuttle Meadow Land company had acquired. Orrin Smith, care- 12 of the city's property at Shuttle Me ow lake, hired to take care of the actual cons ction, while the planning of the course was put in the hands of Willie Parks of Musselberry, Scotland, one of the best procurable experts in that line. After determining the the putting greens and fairways a gang of men numbering about 100 was put at work cutting wood, pelling stumps and large boulders and clear- ing the land preparatory to planting the seed which is to furnish turf. The fairways have been gone over many times for loose stones and other im- pediments. The greens have been carefully laid over with a special preparation of eartt and fertilizer, resembling a black loam before the precious special seed for putting greens was planted. In many places this grass is now growing, though heavy rains have made imperative the replanting of several greens as the loam and seed were washed frpm the higher spots. It is said that upwards of $6,000 has been expended on the course for grass seed alone. trouble and expense of laying out a course is scarcely apparent until one becomes conversant with the setbacks one receives. There is thig grain of consolation to the impatient golfer of New Britain, however, the local course will %e finished in record time, the greens are doing wonderfully well and even the expert has expressed sur- prise at the progress made by Orrin Smith and his gang of huskies. A com- bination of luck and skill will make possible the plaving on one of the fin- est courses in the country by early summer. Sufficient progress has been made at present to insure against further extreme accident: was location of THE MODERN SHORTHAND SCHOOL Frances A.
