Tennie and golf are both within the scope of the feminine field of endeavor hereabouts and the players developed have saown such class as would warpAnt their belng noticed wherever they appear. In boating swimming and fishing they vie with the boys, and frequently excel them in the games Golf appeals to many of the fair sex as the bet- ter form of sport and ex ercise combined For hours they will tramp the links, golf ciub in hand, in nimble pursuit of the little white bell that is so nard to govern, and with faithful caddy in at tendance. ome of them have, with long practice, become so expert at the game that husband or brother is a little careful about what part of his golfing tales he tells at home, for fear that he may some day be chal- lenged to a match that will not perhaps come with much credit to the wembers of the Maud and sters of the sterner sex in several of the sports that are suited to their limitations of sex.

In all the schools nowadays fymnasium work is required f the young women. In the Omaha High school the girls bave a gymnasium, while the boys have to take their exer- cise in the open.

Several k horses appeared as the play pro- cceded during the progress of the matches.

Neither has many good strokes, although Miss Chase seems to have a few more than Miss Clarke, but both girls play a steady consistent game of tennis all through. Miss Clarke has a better developed back- hand stroke and is strong in the placement of the ball, while Miss Chase has to use two hands to make a back- hand play she covers the court better and is quicker on male family. ‘.
