The End of the Game. Chalmers lay the shot in the penultimate hrad close behind the jack. Jessiman came with a nice abot to draw on the wood. Chap man then ropeated the feat of get- ting the shot, and all three players received much' applause.
Taikoo entered the last head with a head of two shots and were lying the shot with a number of woods bunched up in the rear. The only hope was to drive with his first. and Dorrance did so, with the re- sult that the jack moved away for Taikoo to have three counters Dorrance next separated the woods to improve the position. as a Shanghai wood came in for second. Skip Malcolm's first drive was not effective, but the next scattered the woods in all directions. He got the first wood, but a measure for the second went in favour of Taikoo.

Mr. G. MeLood, President of the Club, commented on the very sport- ing game which was marked by such a close finish. At first he thought Shanghai had gone to sleep, but very soon they woke to send Taikoo to sleep. Shanghai had made a wonderful recovery and
