ROARING GAP GOLF COURSE WITH
✓ EIGHTEEN NEW BENT GRASS
GREENS IS IN PERFECT SHAPE
»
12th Hole Made 43 Ynrds Longer Making Course
71 Par; Is One Of Masterpieces Of Donald
Ross And Enthusiasts Weild Their Clubs
Amid The Mountain Breezes At 3700 Feet
Elevation.
With the beautiful eighteen
hole golf course at Roaring Gap
now velveted with beautiful
bent-grass greens, the course
bathed in the breezes of Its 3700
feet altitude ranks as one of the
finest in the South and is re
garded as a masterpiece of Don-I
aid Ross, golf course architect
extraordinary.
Alex Innes, pro, from the
"Braes and heather" of Scot
land will again be there as us
usual while Tom Nails, long fav
orite at Pinehurst and here, will
be cadie master. Glen Stnith is
again greenskeeper, white Rod
erick Innes. a son of the profes
sional is the assistant.
During the past winter all the
new greens were laid and the
twelfth hole was extended from
one of 424 yards In length to
one of 467 yards making a par
five instead of a four, making
the total yardage 5962 with a
par of 71.
When one considers that • the
Tine eighteen hole golf course at
Roaring Gap is set on the beau
iful mesa atop the Blue Ridge
at an altitude of 3700 feet, with
the invigorating greetzes blowing
I away summer heat, one can see
why this course is the Aristocrat
of them all. It is all that golfers
could desire. Laid out by Donald
Ross, the greatest golf oourse
architect In America, it meand
ers over hill and dell atop the
mountain: now between pine
forests and over mountain
streams; up and down smooth
shaven fairways springy
bent greens with hazards here
and there to remove the monoto
ny.
The eighteen holes cause the
player approximately two miles
of walking in the health giving
atsmophere as the course is 5962
yards long. The lpngest bole of
the lot is the third out, which is
497 yards lon*. The yardage of
the out Is 2965. while that of
the last nine ia 2964. Par on the
course is 71 and Bogey is 79/
Peoples Forum
"The Literary Digest Poll
Much has been said and writ
ten with reference to the poll, ex
periment of the' Literary Digest
on the Prohibition question. The
wets may get all the comfort out
of this they possibly can. We
find out of the bal
lots sent out 406,464 marked
ballots were returned to the
Digest office. Considerably less
than one-fifth of the people who
received the ballots returned
them. This was purely wet prop
aganda we may safely say, a flat
failure. The devil and his ser
vants have never Invented any
thing one-half so destructive of
everything good and hopeful in
hutnanlty as the Liquor Traffic.
It has emptied homes of every
thing that brings comfort and
happiness, and hearts of every
thing that brings peace, and fill
up more pits in utter darkness
with hopeless souls than almost
all other inventions of devil and
men. God stirs up every wel
wisher of'humanity to drive the
Liquor Traffic from the earth.
If every man who profeses to be
a prohibitionist would write ar
ticles for the country papers
and help arouse the people, from
, their indifference and luke
, warmness It would nqt be long
until the saloon and its repre
sentatives would be swept out
( of existence. The tine has come
, when we need to have a great
| prohibition revival In these Uni
[ ted States. The Lord says: "Woe
unto them that call evil good
and good evil: that put darkness
for light, and light for darkness.':
One of the greatest hlnderences
to prohibition the wrong la
belling of peofllp. We should al
ways use the right label and
place it where it belongs, for we
will be held responsible for the
labeling. Most all Intelligent peo
ple use a little common sense in
business matters that when it
comes to prohibition matters
they don't even use horse sense.
A man usually takes his names
by what he follows. For instance
a bootlegger is one' who deals In
liquor. A. prohibitionist is one
who does all In his power to
sweep out'the liquor traffic, and
so on. Did you ever hear of a
truthful liar or an honest thief?
It Is just as absurb to call a boot
legger or saloon keeper a prohi-'
bitionist as it is to call a liar
a truthful man or a thelf honest.
It is an interesting and hopeful
fact that the recent vote in Penn
sylvania shows how utterly un
trustworthy the Literary Digest
Poll is. For instance, the Digest
poll gives 147,557 votes for en
forcement of tfce prohibition law
136,233 for .modification, 246,-
063 for repeal of prohibition. In
the recent election in that state
before the totals get in, we find
at least 700,000 votes for the
dry candidate and a little over
200,000 votes for the wet candi
date. You ( wlll find the wet
newspapers very quiet on this
RUbject. Never allow yourself to
p deluded In expecting any sort
of square deal from the friends
of the saloon. Hit the whole li
quor business. Hit it ofteTi. Hit
it hard! Stamp the very life of
it out! Show it no mercy! Give
it no quartets! Save the men
who are in the business by driv
ing them out of the business in
o some legimitate and honest. It
should be well understood that,
from this time forward .that we
are not to trust Literary Digest
Polls to fix the destiny of this
nation or to regulate its moral
and spiritual welfare.
We are only deceiving oursel
ves. Who should ascend into the
hill of the Lord? Or wf»o shall
stand in his holy place? He that
hath clean hands, and a pure
heart; Who hath not lifted up
his soul unto eternity, nor sworn
deceitfully. Psalms 24:3-4.-
