Water taken at random from any spring or well in the Sand section may be submitted to an analytical chemist with the full confidence that it will show fewer impurities, both in number and variety, than water from almost any other section of the United States. That alone is one strong reason for living in the Sandhill country. It is not cheering to think of the water supply of most of the places in the North when I go back that way on business. The Alleghany river rises near Coudersport, in Pennsylvania, and flows by town and city after city until at Pittsburgh it joins the Monongahela to become the Ohio, and the Monongahela comes down out of West Virginia past city after city the same way. These streams are the sewers for city and factory all the way, and from Pittsburgh on down the Ohio to the Mississippi. Yet from these rivers is taken drinking water for city after city, and it is put through what is called a purifying process. Things like these are why I live in North Carolina. Health, comfort, opportunity, surroundings and people, all are drawing cards, and I reckon if I should be dogged out of the Sandhills tomorrow I would follow the dog back, for I would not know any other place that I would care to go to in preference. Ringer Score Tourney Three well known women golfers, Mrs. F. E. Du Bois, of New York ; Miss Sarah Fownes, of Pittsburgh, and Mrs. John D. Chap man, of Greenwich, ran the closest sort of a race for the lead of the field in a ringer score tourney which came to an end at Pinehurst last week. The No. 1 course, measuring 5,919 yards, with a par of 69 and a bogey of 78, was selected for the contest, and the major prize was finally awarded to Mrs. Du Bois, who led the twenty contestants by a margin of one stroke and with a card of 37, 34 71. Miss Fownes, who finished with 35, 3772, tied for the second prize with Mrs. Chapman, whose score was 36, 36 72. The best ball of these leaders alone was 34, 3266, and by way of comparison it may be noted that the best average ever turned in for this course in a professional tournament was 75 strokes, and the best average made on No. 1 by a field taking part in the North and South amateur title event was 95 strokes. . Each of the leading trio had a hand in humbling the par total for the course. Mrs. Du Bois and Mrs. Chapman both registered 2s on the short eleventh, and Miss Fownes had a sensational birdie 3 on the 410-yard ninth-hole, where her second shot reached the edge of the green, one bright and sunny afternoon, and she ran down the long putt for a 3 that any golfer of the male persuasion would be proud of. All of the other fifteen holes of the course were accounted for in the par figures. The cards of the leaders and their best ball score, with the par of the No. 1 course: Par, out 4 4 5 4 4 3 3 4 435 Par. in 4 3 4 3 4 4 4 5 3-34-69 Mrs. Du Bois, out 54545334 437 Mrs. Du Bois, in 5 2 4 3 4 4 4 5 3-34-71 Miss Fownes, out 44554334 335 Miss Fownes, in 43534546 33772 Mrs. Chapman, out 4 4 5 4 4 3 3 4 536 Mrs. Chapman, in 5 2 5 3 5 4 4 5 3-36-72 Their best ball card: Out 4 4 5 4 4 3 3 4 334 I 4 2 4 3 4 4 4 5 23266 It is worthy of note that the trio's best ball of 66 equaled the best ball of all of the other seventeen players taking part in the contest. One of the seventeen, Mrs. Herman Ellis, got a birdie 3 on the 437-yard third-hole, but none of them managed to get a par 4 on the fifth hole, a difficult 420-yard affair.
