A Plnehurit Wooing-.
( Written for The Outlook. )
It's breezes soft cartss you
It's blue, blue skies enfold;
It's sweet bird notes allure you,
Back from the North-land cold.
It's jasmine flowers smile at you,
Greetings on every side ;
It's open fields entreat you
To wander far and wide.
It's dim sweet aisles Invite you,
While murmuring pine trees tall,
Whisper their loving message
Holding your heart in thrall.
The sunshine sheds it's brilliance,
With warmth your heart it fills;
While Nature's sweet suggestions
Through all your being thrills.
It's moonlight brings enchantment,
When all its radiance rare
Makes earth a fairy garden
And you a captive there.
It's myriad stars watch o'er you,
Through peaceful nights of calm;
The freshness of its mornings
Lays on your heart its balm.
It's long fair days enrich you,
Under the arching sky ;
An ardent wooer Pinehurst !
Yes wooed, and won, am I.

Speaking- of Golf.

( Written for The Outlook.)
"It's easy enough to be pleasant
When Life goes by with a song,
But the man worth while
Is the man who will smile
When everything goes dead wrong."
It's easy enough to be cheerful,
And look on with a "chessy-cat" grin,
When the other man plunks
All his balls In the bunks,
And you tell him to swear is a sin.
And you say with a smile condescending,
And an air that is simply a bird,
"Now brace up, old fell
That's a mere bagatelle !
I've done that myself, 'pon my word!"
Then you swell out your chest, nonchalantly,
And Bend a ball whizzing through space
It lands in the mud
With a dull, sickening thud
And you cuss everything on the place.
And then, with disgust past expression,
You take up the same old refrain,
"Oh, bother! (?) Oh, whew! (????)
What's the use I'm all through!"
Then you start in all over again !
