The surgical dressings will be sent off as soon as the proper, wrappings can be obtained. FINANCIAL STATEMENT. This community, as well as every inde pendent neighborhood in the United States, is in duty bound to keep up its quota of hospital supplies, obtaining the materials and doing the work without calling upon the 'sorely, pressed head quarters for anything. The community has responded to the call for funds to keep the needed material on hand, but not to the extent that it is expected they will when the situation is more clearly understood. Early in December it was necessary to negotiate a loan of $300 from the bank of Pinehurst. The re ceipts and expenditures to date are RECEIPTS Proceeds note bank Pinehurst.. $298.50 Donations and entertainments. . 308.65 Total $607.15 DISBURSEMENTS Faid Atlanta Branch, gauze and muslin $296.80 Paid note due bank 300.00 Balanch cash on hand 10.35 $607.15 The Branch still have bills for wool and other material amounting to over $100. And of course the work has to continue in ever increasing volume. This means that our expenses for material will be double or treble what they have been hitherto. Donations of either money or materials will be gratefully received. Mrs. J. D. C. Bumsey, Secretary and Treasurer. THAT TIMES KlIITOniAL Stepping aside from the high matters of State, and the saving of the Democ racy, the New York Times the other day paused in full career to take up the cudgels for the Dodo Golfer, and to take a fall out of those driving parks layed out by the foul fiend for the embitter ment of thousands of lives, and the losing of myriads of balls and characters and tempers. Especially does it excoriate the prevalence of dugouts, morasses, barriers and jungles so intricate that the poor dub is driven distracted to the nineteenth hole and for even a look in on Bogey. Since without question or debate this indictment is aimed at our own pet and championship course, the final horror and master piece of that arch landscape butcher,Donald Boss and since we admit the charge, and glory in it, let us first set forth the counts as they appear ' ' In the host of golfers very few reach the coveted domain of super-golf. The average player, capable of bulging with pride, when his score drops below 100 strokes, furnishes most of the capital and enthusiasm that maintain private courses and public links. If Mr. Super- Golfer and his fellow-experts were segre gated upon greens of their own, confined within bunkers built solely with their own funds, limited to traps dug with no aid from the despised tyro, it is easy to imagine how much the ancient game would lose of its popular interest. To watch and admire marvelous individuals who make par scores is a stimulus nec essary to the average players' golf edu cation; he looks upon the master clubs man as proof that it is possible for a human to attain that excellence which he himself touches only on rare occasions upon this or that fairway. But it is chiefly his own poor efforts, coupled with a, baseless hope which golf somehow en courages in deluded minds, that keep alive his interest in the game. Why is it, then, that our American courses or the best of them, at any rate are being diverted to the requirements of the super-golfer? The week-end player, without enough leisure time for constant practice, or lacking the natural aptitude for developing into a mighty player, finds his club links turned into a play ground fit only for professionals and for amateurs of conspicuous skill. Traps in terrupt his every stroke. Bunkers rise to stop the ball that speeds to the uttermost limits of his reach. Distances are meas ured so as to destroy even the fairly pro ficient player's score; none but the par wizard can attain them. The whole lay out of fairways and greens accords with the needs or fancies of those scarce creatures whose cards abound in ' ' eagles " or ' ' birdies ; ' ' who, if they ever found themselves clouting a ball as many times as ninety or a hundred to cover eighteen holes; would seek treat ment for their nerves and muscles at the nearest hospital. It may be that the average golfer is a spineless being, ashamed to raise a voice to .uphold his rights in the club. Or perhaps he is too busy counting his strokes to meddle in the club's less im portant affairs. Anyway, he lets the ex perts run things. The par player domi nates the Green Committee, lays out the course to suit himself, remodels it to fit his tastes as they grow more exacting, month by month, and finally intersperses through the greenswards a series of dug outs, morasses, barrier, and jungles so intricate that the poor nuisances in the club's majority are driven to the nine teenth hole for their only real pleasure. But the worms will turn. Some day the down-trodden will rise in their might of numbers, organize golf courses of their, own, bar out all who play a hun dred, and forthwith manage to get a little fun out of their chosen sport. For a member who thereafter learns to play super-golf the penalty will be obvious. He will, in turn, be ousted by his old comrades and forced to join a more ex clusive club suited to his new attain ments. " Overawed by the splendour of the speaker as the Latin critics were flat tened out by Gladstone's Horation Odes, albeit Gladstone knew no more about the Odes than Teddy, does about Egyptian Phonetics the leading Golfing magazines have accepted this dictum with a few whimsical addenda. 1 1 . , PATCH & RICHARDSON Department Store Southern Pines, N.
