"It Saves Letter Writing." Those Iloaton Foursomes In the course of a review of successful foursomes competitions during thtj last summer in Massachusetts a Boston scribe takes occasion to say a few things and hurl a few adjectives at the New York golfers. Boston is one of the few places in this country where the foursomes style of competition is preferred to the four ball and it has been largely through the Massachusetts people that this method has been retained in the annual Lesley cup matches. For this reason the re fusal of Walter J. Travis to compete as a member of the Metropolitan team last fall caused some stir round about the Hub. At any rate here is what the Bos ton scribe has to say about the matter : "These things must be stated over and over again, for rumbles are continually heard in the New York golfing district, where the poor, benighted heathen know not the foursome, and attempts frequent ly are made to influence opinion so that the foursome feature of the Lesley cup matches will be lost by the substitution of four ball matches. Chief Travis re fuses altogether to play foursomes, which unkind crictics say is because he can play his own very good game just the same way every day, and he does not propose to have to play anybody else's game, whether it is better or worse than his own game. In other words he proposes to play the ball where it lies after his own length of shots and not after longer or shorter ones made by his partner. "In this matter of course Travis should be left to his fate and his four ball matches, always provided that his four ball match does not block the course. It is almost impossible to convince first class golfers playing a four ball match that they keep back a single composed of mediocre players. But it has been dem onstrated again and again that the two mediocre players lose about half an hour every time they play the course behind such a constituted four ball match, and yet the four ball match players remain unconscious of their sinning and it is extremely difficult to bring them to task when they are such great men pundits who have made the history of the game here and who pontificate its services north and south, following the sun and the stars in their courses."

Where One Seeks a Real Vacation "The most remarkable thing to me about Pinehurst," remarks a tourist working Northward from a trip covering Southern resorts, "is the fact that the first of February always finds Midseason full in swing here, while farther South the season is but just beginning. 1 And I might further add that this particular year your late January crowd is as big or bigger than the rest of the South com bined, f To my mind the whole secret of it lies in the healthy, outdoor atmos phere of the resort and right conditions for living which radiate health and hap piness; the things which count where one seeks a real vacation !"
