Keep Up With Yourself
MEN who forge ahead in business raise their standards of living; their wants increase. But too often, the amount of life insurance remains the same. Should the inevitable happen, the widow and children. must effect a drastic cut in their scale of living..
Keep up with yourself-don't let your life insurance fall below a safe ratio to your family's living expenses.

HOW HIGH SHOULD THE BALL BE TEED?
STUDYING BOBBY JONES.
A peculiar superstition seems to exist among golfers that to tee the ball high is to hint of both nervous ress and incompetence.
If a conquering golfer Lises a high tee, his vanquished adversary is certain to dwell on this weak- nesa. There are some golfers who, in the eyes of the long-handleap man, ought never to win matches. These are those who indulge in so heroics in getting out of the rough, those who sink long putta aerosa the green, and those who tee the ball high.
Strangely enough, it is just these outcasts who do seem to collect the spoons, the medals, and the stakes. Of golfers who use the high tee, Bobby Jones must take first place.
He tees the ball a full inch off the ground. The height of such a tee, by contrast with what is considered the normal height, seems enormous,
Incisive Reasons. The champion, however, has very high incisive reasons for using tee, and his ewing reveals them. His drive is essentially a sweep, with a snap of the wrists to add emphasia to it. He makes no ob vious attempt to get down to the ball, as so many golfers do when the ball is teed closer to the ground.
Instead of hitting at the ball, Bobby Jones sweeps it off a pedestal, using a deep-faced driver Any golfer who cares to experiment with a high tee and a deep-faced club will find that his confidence in his swing will grow. There will be fewer doubts in his mind about hitting the ball squarely.
It is a fallacy to assume that high tee leads to skying the ball.
On the contrary, If the driver sweeps through the ball, there is no gain in height but there should be an addition of yards to the length of the drive. Once the knack of using a high teo is mastered, it is just as easy to keep the right trajectory, but not nearly so easy to top the ball er to take the ground behind it.

The tee should be level with the arch of the left foot, and certainly not further back than level with the left heel.
A Better Method. This enables the player to hit the ball in the back-a-better method for most golfers than hitting the all a descending blow. It is when the ball is embedded In the ground. or buried in sand and grase, that the player should stand firmly over it on his right foot, and hit a

descending blow. When the ball can be teed up, a sweeping blow that hits the ball fairly in the back is most successful;
Many professionals condemn the high tee for the drive, holding that you have to get down to the ball when playing with mashie brassio through the fairway.
OY
Undoubtedly there is a great deal of truth in this, but we have to consider that the drive from the teo and the spoon shot through the fairway are not necessarily more similar than drive and iron ahot We. do not bury the ball on the tea because we are sometimes compell- ed to play, from a bunker with just a bare sight of it. Why should we give up
any advantage we can secure with the first shot through thinking too soon about the second? A player who uses a high tes when driving is not neces- sarily weak with spoon shots: there
probably be just the difference in the swings for the two shots that secures length and overspin in one
the ball on the green, in the other. case and lift and backspin, to stɔp
The choosing of a spot on the teeing ground, too, is worthy of consideration.
Many players who slice, or who fear to find a hazard close on the right-hand boundary of the fair- way, will tee up the ball on the left of the teeing ground. This is a mistake. The ball should be teed up to the extreme right, so that you hit well into the fairway. A good shot should take you slightly over to the left; a sliced shot may curl over to the right. If the ball is teed up on the loft, It will probably be pushed straight out towards the hazard on the right
Cursed with Slicing.
I am reminded of a golfor who was not merely troubled but cursed with slicing. He claimed never to have hit a completely straight shot.
Hearing that it was a good idea to tee to the right and hit to the left. he did this at the 10th one day,
aiming to place the ball between square-leg and mid-on.
This was unfortunate for a four- some puiting on the 9th which was
green, In this direction. He hit the Arst straight shot he had over hit in his life, and shook them up severely
It is seldom advisable to adopt deliberate fault to cure
another fault, but there is nothing to be said against using a high tee and placing that tee to the part of the teeing ground most likely to help Copy- the drive(China Mail right.)
