The | fact that the Western Golf association has | taken itselt legislate for clubs under fts jurisdiction amounts almost to a the game, although it has passed compgratively unnoficed upon to revolution In Hitherto devotees of the royal sport were | content to abide by the rules drafted by 014 St. Andrews. but recently the western body passed dealing with stymies, ball dropping in muddy ground,, the con- ceding of putts, duties of the referee, prac- tice strokes and the settlement of disputes. wis. rules Leaving aside the question as to the dom of certain new rules, it is pertinent to call attention to the fact that hence- forth there will be two wmets of rules in force in the United States.

In fact. thix thing happened as the result of a disputed point during the Olympie competition at Clove- a amount only Irving Benolken, Lawrence R, selation, as it disputed ques authority: the way very the national amateur champlonship.

This at once occasioned no end of discussion, some experts exclaiming that the Intent of the rule had been violated, and others claiming that the title holder had acted entirely within his rights | Finally, the question put to the ex- ecutive committee of the United States Goif | assoclation for decision, and the verdict | was returned tavorable to Travers. Not content with this, certain parties then ap- | pealed to the Royal and Anclent, and In | due time word came back from St. An- i drew's to the effect that the rule had been violated.

Thus far, ! | Metropolitan Golf association, the Golf As- | soclation of Massachusetts, fhe Southern | | Goit association and the New Jersey State | | Goit association have been loyal to the| | United States Golf assoclation, but what |1s to prevent these and other sectional | bodies entering into the fray? An old| | golter, not backward about speaking his mind, probably voiced the sentiments of thousands of others when he said: “We Americans waited long before em- bracing this glorious game that has stood | the test of time, and for centuries flour- iehed across the sea. Why, they, when it ix yet young here, only in its swaddling | clothes, must we begin to tear it to pleces? | | But since this fickle, restless, breezy west- ern set, as they go beating the ball over {thc prairie, don't like the brand as we | imported it from the Scots, they might far better start all over again with a new | | game, founded, if they choose, on the prin- | | ciples of golf.

For the matter, almost any saerifice could be en- | dured without a murmur If they would | only teave us the ancient game in its orlg- | | | | inal purity and loveliness.” | Of course, different people view things | | differently, so that what appears to be ab- | solutely right to one is stamped as ridicu- lous by another, and a case in point is fur- | | nished by some recent utterances on the | | part of a Chicago enthusiast.
