Of course, they are in actuality but variations of the old time clubs which we were in the habit of using thirty to forty years ago, but the catalogue of clubs in these far-off days was in comparison with the present day a comparatively simple one, as you had a driver, agradation of spoons-long spoon and baffy spons-pos sibly a cleek, a long iron, medium iron, lofted iron, and niblick.
Whilst they were all distinct and separ ate in their character, on the other hand, all individual stamps of clubs turned out of the shops were very similar fo design. A long spoon was a long spoon, and 4 lofted iron was a lofted iron-it was dif. cult to mistake that fact.

Nowadays player will hard you a iron club which he terms a mongrel mashie, and you will find yourself dawdling a club which is almost heavy enough to fell an ox, and which in regard to the matter of loft on the face is very much akin to a driving iron.

But I am not for a moment suggesting that the mongral mashie of the present day is not an extremely um, and serviceable clab, as, provided that you can obtain possession of one which is not too heavy, too straight-faced and powerful, there are endless classes of shots you can play with it.
It is an extremely useful club for the shorter classes of approaches which have to be played against the wind, and a very serviceable waipon for all classes of running-up shots. It should supply the role of what has been termed the maid of all work more efficaciously than any other stamp of irca club I can think of.
ADVANTAGE OVER THE JIGGEE."
C
One advantage it enjoys over the jigger a very favourite club with many-is that it is slightly deeper in the face, and in consequence where the shot has" to be played ont of the rough with the ball lying cocked up on the long grass there is lean chance of playing what cricketers term the caught and bowled shot the stroke which spius feebly up in the air a matter of 10 to 20 yards.
Many of the present-day clube, with

Governor Olcott denounces this daw, which comes into force four years hence, as a violation of religious liberty. Whole ammunities in Oregon, he says, ara torn by religious dissension and hatred to such En extent that neighbours who used to be the best of friends are now at daggera rupted by drawn. Families, he declares, are dis a spirit of religious intolerarea. He mentions one town, Medford, in Jackson County, whore the citizens go about heavily armed in bands divided between "Ku Kluxers" and "anti- Ku Kluxera," while nightriders wearing white gowns and cowls repeatedly commit outragea of a character which used to be peculiar to the Southern States. Already, says Mr. Olcost, many families are moving away from the State in terror.

there are 79 million or more Protestanta in the United States, and that once they are awake to the papal conspiracy they will rise en masse and drive every alien Papist from our shores."
Again, one might term this club a long- handled straight faced jigger, but both the Jigger and the Sammy are developments THE HOUSING SHORTAGE AT HOME from the old-fashioned cleck, which at one time was the favourite of so many golfers. Nowadays it is beloved by the few, and the majority of those who do carry o stright-faced cleek round with them are not

WHAT IS A BASHIR ?
In the recent £750 tournament at San. pingdale one of the very prominent performers was quoted as being an excep. tionally good cleek player. I happened to Beo a good deal of his play, and never did I see him play a full leek shot. I did see him make a number of vory fine spoon shots, and his play with the spoon struck me as the most reliable and best part of his game.
