Miss Collets in the final and was immediately five down after nine holes. Miss Collett's play has been described as unique for women's golt on the Old Course at St. Andrew's, By the end of the first round Miss Wathered bad knocked off three holes and finally won by 3 and 1.
I understand that the Committee of the Club has made the following Now that these two have definite recommendations for the consideraly retired, there will be a much tion of Shanghai and Manila :-
(1) That the Home team shall publish its team first.
(9) That no match shall go ber yond the 18th or 36th hole.
As pointed out some time ago in these notes, the first recommenda- tion gives a bit of advantage to the visiting team, so that they are able to arrange their batting order to the greatest advantage, and thus make up in a small degree for the fact that visitors in very seldom, if ever, have a really representa-1 tive team.
The second recommendation means that in certain cases a draw may result. There is no real "ob- jection to this, as in such cases a
draw most truly represents the ability of the two teams.
It is to be hoped that Shanghai and Manila will approve these suggestions.

"Quite so. But why not shift FOR THE CHILDREN. the fee down to the right and make the hole, say, 160 or 170 yards and bunker it, as I've shown on this sketch 1. Make your front tee on the centre line and your back tee up the hill a bit, so that the man who can play a shot with a bit of draw on it gains an advantage, by opening up the green for a straight run"in to the pin."-
"It's certainly an idea, Colonel, but you mustn't shorten the course
any more."
"That's easily remedied by put- ting the tee of the 18th behind Sandy's Pulpit green. There's a and it would improve the hole, as place all ready for it in the wood the same time recovering the length "You seem to have thought of you lose at the 18th." every But the Colonel had disappeared into thin air, and I found wo were nearly back at Kow- loo and I had missed Hong Kong!

HAGEN AND KIRKWOOD IN AUSTRALIA, VICTORY OVER MELBOURNE PAIR,
It is now probabic, anys the AC. Daily News, that the round-the- world junk trip, planned by two China Coast officers will be under- taken by the originator of the ex- pedition, his companion having been reluctantly compelled to aban- don the project, owing to coming nautical examinations. The officer proposes to take the junk from Swatow, where it is nearing com- pletion, at the beginning of next month, sad to sail for Hong Kong, whence he will proceed to Sanda- kan, British North Borneo, then shaping a course for New Guinea, Australia, New Zealand, Honolulu, America and England.
Stores have been purchased in Shanghai and in Hong Kong, while a recent action of the commander's. was to consult the naval authorities with a view to protection against piracy whilst proceeding from Bwntow to Hong Kong. Keon in- terest. was manifested by the naval licers with the result that arrange- ments were, made for special signale" to be exchanged between the junk. and any warships she passes..
" Piratical Junks, The navigator, of course, fears attempts by fishing junks on the coast to seize. his vessel, and if he tackles the job single-handed he will be taking on a heavy task In all probability he will take a supply of Verey lights on board, and a pistol. He will then have an efficient protection against the pirates, as the lights are capable of setting fro to sails.
This latter fact was demonstrated Hong Kong, when large areas of Verey lights were used." scrub land were set alight when
