Inhabitants of other cities generally refer to the industrial centre on the north bork of the Tay as Juteopolis or the City of Murmalade; but its indwellers prefer to call it Bonnie Dundee, a title they have stolen from John Graham, Viscount Dundee, the Bloody Clavers" of Scot- V.R.," who writes

In recent years, the foursome care has. beez rather a serious rival in some quar- bars to the real foursome, in which two balls are played, with the result that not only has the much finer form of the game handed down to us from the bis- toric past been neglected, but the men who have become addicted to the four- ball habit have probably undermined their qualifications for proper foursome play. In Sectland, fortunately, respect for the older style of foursome has not been diminished.
