WTT 90LFBALLSN0W OR THE MARKET lime for Standardization; the New Kind Have Made Game "Hare and Hound" Race. CHAMPIONSHIP LINKS Are the Kind That Are De- sired; Distance Not Only Feature Demanded. HB recent production of golf balls which fly tester and farther than ever, and the tendency on the part of green committee* to obtain more length for the various courses, sug- gest that the game Is resolving; itself Into a "bare and bound" race with the lively hall having a shade the better of It No one can Imagine where it all will end. It was hot so long ago that 6.000-yard courses were considered long. These days 6,500 yards has been reached in a number of instances, the added length being entirely doe to the ability of manufacturers to produce a haii with- which great distance can be obtained. , Quarter-Mile Holts. , A* a matter of fact, the campaign now going on throughout the country to revise old-established golf courses indicates that the architects found it necessary to do something, or holes of any distance less than 360 yards would become "one showers." Holes a quarter ot a mile in length have be- come two shot boles, simply through ihe'abiiiiy of. the present-day player, with bis modern implements to drive far.: -i "Where It will end. no one mn im- agine," remarked one committeeman the other day. "Hero wo have been pitssling our brains to produce the necessary length on our links and now I understand three new balls have been produced which are capable of being driven farther than any of the old makes. By the time we get our course as we want It, It will be neces- sary for another revision, and I sup- pose that method can be kept up In- definitely with the resultant heavy ex* poose." " f! ..â- &â- *; * Length of Course Net Only Test Of course, there 1b the great desire on the part of golfers to have better facilities for playing the game, but the length of a course does not neces- sarily determine its test of golf, although It often has much to do with it Golfers demand courses more of a championship test or rather of such a construction that they can be used for championship purposes, should the occasion arise. The situation, therefore, might be summarized In this manner: (1) The golfers want a better test of the game; <f) the newer balls have made longer distances necessary; (3) there will be no stopping this constant changing until the governing bodies take up the problem and find a satisfactory soiu- mm down essay e « was the rala far oaa player to •ad dews* for the party on the otter,, of uiiansn.

Several years ago there was a great deal aald and Written about standard- ising the golf ball. It amounted to nothing bit talk, sound though the arguments presented were. If there •vie was a time for the ball to be standardized it is now. Those who delve Into the whys and wherefores of the game have suggested that this Is the psychological moment for that matter to be considered. Irrespective of the arguments that might bo brought against this sugges- tion, it Is certain that, with a stan- dard hall, the great expense and monu- mental effort hi constantly keeping the courses "up to snuff" would be re- duced to a minimum.

When the college took over the hos- pital, which was more than two bun* dred years older than Itself, it took over the duty of providing the sermon. The practice of preaching the ser- mon in the open sir was given up about 1766, Hearne, writing in 1716, says: "It is customary upon this day to preach In a stone pulpit In the quadrangle all beset with boughs, by way of allusion to St. John Baptist preaching in the wilderness." One of the various reasons given for aban doning the practice was that decking with boughs led to an undue stripping of the walks. The real reason. Doctor Warren thinks, is that given by the famous field preacher, George White* field, in a letter written In 1768 to the vice-chancellor: "I hereby appeal to tho whole university whether the rev- erend doctors of divinity, heads of houses, graduates or undergraduates ever looked on it as criminal or be- neath the dignity of their place and 'njen'j station to sit out in the open air on St. John Baptist's day and hear a mas- ter of arts preach from the stone pul- pit in Magdalen college yard, though for fear it may be they should give further sanction to field preaching they have lately thought proper to adjourn Into the chapel." The custom was re- vived in 1696, and a sermon is preached. In the open on June 24. CAVOUR READ TIMES MANY YEARS AHEAD Hill Country at a Standstill as Far as Industry and .

Dwlght Furness has Just returned to Evanston from several weeks in El Paso, Teg. He has been on the bor- der line awaiting favorable develop- opments, so that he could go down into Mexico to attend to bts mining properties, but so far he has been un- able to get further than Chihuahua. Conditions Are Hopeless. , Hie story of the utterly hopeless condition into which all Mexico is plunged exceeds former reports by many degrees. When he came out of Guanajuato in the early spring with biiver bar and bullion, Villa was than supreme m the northern section of the country, but since that time he has suffered several severe defeats and both Agues Callentes and Guanajuato are cut off from the north. The mines and mills at Guanajuato are shut down, and have been idle since the first part of last month. Mr, Furness's brother-in-law, Sam E. Rog- ers, Is at Guanajuato and no word has been received from him for several weeks. The last telegram which Mr. Furness received the early part of July was deleted completely, all that remained being the address and sig- nature, since then no word has come; through and he expresses considerable concern for the safety Of Mr. Rogers and a large group of Americans. The mines and mills furnished food and employment for practically all cf ttr pppulation and with thofr supplies cut off there le no telling to what limits the mob violence would carry them, i The conditions of the people and the shortage of the food supply never has been exaggerated. According to Mr. Furness, the military authorities In Mexico have seised all the available supplies for the use of the troops and for shipment into the states to ex change for- munitions. Corn and beanr and cattle are coming north and bol lets are going south. As a result the agricultural activity la at a standstill A Million a Day. Mr. Furness had a lot of Mexican money Issued by the Villa govern They are printing the paper money at a rate of about a million a day. In American revolutionary times continental j currency"wapr hardly worth its weight in paper, and the same la true of the factional currency In Mexico. One man. who wont down to Chi huahua with Mr. Furness recently, tipped the porter with a $10 bill. The b!U was actually worth thirty cents Needles are worth a dollar and s epos! of thread a dollar and a half. Where the military la supreme the money must be accepted, or the man who refuses Is placed under arrest. In order to get some coin Into the conn try Villa's financial agents demanded that the American smelting companies pay their workmen in stiver, with e minimum wage of one pesos each day The money was shipped hi and paid out. As a result the mills were over- whelmed with men who wanted work whereas before there had hardly been enough to load ears. The good money also drove out the bad and acted as a bocaierass oa tho VtSte order. Town of El Paso Is a town of refugees.

Lake Forest's "city beautiful" plan bad Ito beginning five years ago, when 100 residents of "tho. millionaires' suburb" gathered at a public meeting to consider the beautiflcatlon of the city. ' As a result of that meeting, presided over by John V. Farwel, the city laid down os its ideals cleanliness, good at once to reconstruct Lake Forest in accord with these Ideals. Improvement Work Begun. Since that time unsightly barns have been torn down, atreets widened, trees planted and many beautiful real* dences erected. The entire city worked together to offset the effects ot early haphaserd growth. . Funds went subscribed to purchase the business, section of the suburb, and tor this purpose approximately ,1250,000 was raised. The property waa purchased and the title reposed In the following trustees: Cyrus H. McCor- mick, David Jones. D. Mark Cum- mings, John V. Far well and Arthur T. A building committee waa appointed as follows: James Hayworth, John T. Plrie, Donald McClelland and Philip James. For the purpose of carrying on the work. Lake Forest citizens have formed themselves Into an organisa- tion known as the Lake Forest Im- provement association. Telia Plana for Suburb. "Lake Forest contains some of the most beautiful summer homes in America." said Mr. Aldis yesterday. "We hope, through our present plans. to add the little touches of ptctur- ?squeness, variety and charm neces- sary to make Lake Forest one of the most beautiful cities to America." Practically ail Of the leading citi- zen* of Lake Forestâ€"and that in- cludes many of the wealthiest and best-known families In Chicagoâ€"have given financial and moral support to the artistic ambitions of the suburb.
