"MENTAL" MATTER Existing in this infulte conscious- nese are a number of limited con- clousnesses, apparently reflections of the Supreme, and these operate in, among others, a series of vibrations that we call "mental" matter, and it is this mental mai- ter and its conscious reaction to the forces of the immediately

It is obvious that before we can expect this mental matter to be readily amenable to the higher vibrations, it is necessary that, it should become as flexible as pos- sible. This extreme flexibility in a person we call humility, and the combination of the analytical merital with the synthetical higher plane we call wisdom, so that it is obvious that wisdom and under standing go hand in hand, and that without an adequate measure of humility neither wisdom ΟΣ understanding are possible.

In winning the title for the second time in four years he became the first British player to succeed in a field comprising not only the American Ryder Cup team, but other famous play- ers from the United States. In the past seventeen years only" four British players-Haters, Colton, Perry, and Padgham-have won the championship, and only at a time when..opposition from. America was of no great' consequence.
It has fallen to Catton to win when the opposition repre- sented the full playing strength of the United States. It is not without significance, as an indication of the revival of British golf, that two other players, the brothers R. and C. Whitcombe, Anished in front of the entire U.S. Ryder Cup team.
Britain's triumph would have been complete had not our players in some extraordinary way managed to throw away the International match at Southport, where the weather conditions for the Americans were almost as disconcerting as those at Carnoustie.
