WHEN SHOTS INCREASE. YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE.
HEALTH AND HUMOUR,
I
distinguished physician, see, has been doubting the health- value of golf. In fact, he has gone so far
that the as to say effort of a bad shot is to cause loss of temper, thereДse blood pressure, and tend to lessen life's span.
Life-insurance experts are not so pessimistic. They like entho- siasm for galt. It shows health and energy.
There are of course, golfers whose game does tend to shorten their lives:
who I mean, those are full of lively humour when the opponent's shots are not go ing well; who say. "Cheer up! We haven't lost the caddy yet," or. "Bring the children next time, okl man, they'd love playing with you down there in the sand.”
The Other Type.
More seriously, "there are golf- ers of another type whose game does tend to shorten their social life.
to
Men, for example, who arrive early and suck out partner notoriously, difficul
beat. Having paired up, they search for two opponents, not a difficult to beat, having
more regard for purses than personalities,
As far as it goes, this frank de- sire for conquest is not objec tionable; it makes him a keen game-especially when the pair marked out for slaughter see. through the ruse, and play as they never did before. In ans case, the expert pair who offer a match to a weaker combination are doing them a service, for they provide sound practice.
Often the Case. Consider, too, the golfer who inasque:ades under a false handi- cap-the sixteen handicap mar. with a startling habit of making par figures when the match depends

to some amusing frankness. I do not think it a better system than the system of handicaps, but I think that handicaps tend to stifle ambition. If a player had to negotiate his strokes each time, he would not be so ready to ad- mit himself sixteen handicap; or rather, he might admit eighteen Ghally compromise

I like the story of a golfer who | Jolly Fellows-Waltz, went p to a club
Amaureuse-Waltz, for a game, und was introduced to a member by a friend. On being afterwards asked by his friend how he got on, he replied, "We had a great Pame, but the man I played was a bit sharp for me.

Golf and Health.
As to the value of golf on the point of sheer physical health. opinions differ.
My own view is that if you are fit. golf will keep you fit. If you are out of condition, it is easy to
verda golf.
The player out of condition is more likely to miss his shots than the player in good trim, and he la more likely to get annoye about it.

Handicaps and Ambition. Within the memory of most golfers, there were no handicaps In many clubs-in fact, I believe there are still clubs that have no real system of handicapping.
And the en- thusiastic golfer does not readily admit himself beaten. He any to himself, "What! Me not able to play 36 holes a day? Non- sense! I'll make a special point of playing forty-five to-morrow."
The way to get the maximum from golf as a benefit to health Is to practise as well as play.
