The Young Golf Champion.
The holder of the amateur golf
championship of the United States
commands the admiration of hundreds
of thousands of his fellow citizens,
who do not worship from afar, but
know by personal experience just
what his superiority on the links
means. Golf admits of no winning by
sheer luck or chance spurts. Its devo
tees are such because of the exacting
nature of the game and do not dissim
ulate when they applaud the maker of
a record. Just at present the majori
ty of the rapidly growing army ot golf
players In this country are trying ear
nestly to play the game and not to put
up fancy scores. Interest in the work
of a champion is genuine because It
furnishes incentive and instruction to
those who frankly confess that they
yet have much to learn.
There Is no playing to the galleries
for a star performer on the golf llnkB.
The great charm of the game for those
attracted to it lies in the rational,
health giving exercise Involved, mus
cle tension going uphill, muscle ten
sion going downhill, muscle tension
In the stroke to send the ball as far as
it will go and muscle control In send
ing the ball far enough, but not too
far. If, as 'tis said, playing baseball
and football makes good men for sol
diers, playing golf should make good
generals. It requires brains, patience
and a rare combination of skill with
power rightly applied to play well
enough to understand it and to like It
for a recreation. The winning of the
prize from the pick of the nation's
players assembled at the Garden City
tournament stamps the winner, Je
rome D. Travers, as the elite of the
elite In one form of Individual and un
aided physical achievement Although
called a "youngster," Travers Is almost
a veteran at the game, for he has
played it ten years. He Is now about
twenty-two and owes his ilastery to
that patient toil which is generally
irksome to youth. His advice to be
ginners Is not to "waste energy and
patience on the very difficult problems
of the links, but first perfect your
selves In the simple work then things
that were Impossible before may per
haps be conquered." In other words,
carry the outposts one by one before
storming the citadel, a good motto for
everyday use everywhere.
The Art of Looking Pleasant.
A school recently opened in New
York for the training of department
store clerks will lay stress upon the
art of looking pleasant and even smil
ing when a customer approaches the
counter. This disposition, or faculty,
as it may be, of greeting life every
where with a smile, is the best equip
ment the beginner can have in any
field of work. In our bustling age,
wanting everything done quickly, we
may have lost sight of the art of show
ing that the doing and the finishing
give happiness. To take it all for
granted makes life dull plodding, and
the art of looking pleasant is worthy
of an endowed chair in schools of prac
tical culture.
Success may be-won by smiles. But
If there is nothing much to gain It is
better to face every turn of fortune
with cheeriness. In the age of
chivalry the knight met death with a
smile. It was part of bis knightly
training. With smiles on the journey
through life will go a dozen little cour
tesies too often neglected. Rudeness
and lack of feeling are seldom meant,
and the best way to show one's real
sentiments is through little touches of
courtesy—first the pleasant smile hnd
then the thoughtful act which sends
Hie smile home.

Positive proof that the gambling
bank at-Monte Carlo must always win
in the end would liave no effect in
stopping the mania of those who
throw away their money there.. The
gambler believes in runs of luck and
hopes to win when the luck of the
bank goes against it

Homing the Exiles of Erlit.
Appeals are being made to the count
less wanderers from the Emerald Isle
to return home and make the waste
places of the fatherland glad again.
The suggestion carries a strong appeal
to sentiment The Irish are inclined
to revisit the "ould sod" occasionally,
and a very few return there to pass
their old age. But it is tfrgued that
the skill and resources which the Irish
have acquired in foreign lands should
rally to start a prosperity boom at
home. Americans at least would not
begrudge any prosperity resulting to
Ireland from the investment of money
made in this country.
For every Irishman who may return
and invest his money and skill in home
enterprises this country would get at
least two fresh immigrants In return.
It Is the sight of American money
abroad, heralding as it does this land
of unequaled opportunity, which keeps
the steerage of ocean steamers full.
However, it is a question whether the
Irish who come here now or who have
come in the past are the kind which
Ireland needs at this stage. Jhe fact
that New York, Boston, Philadelphia
and Chicago have more Irish Inhab
itants than any four dtles In Ireland
would indicate that our citizens of
Irish lineage take to city activities.
These peopie have developed no large
territories like the Germans and the
Scandinavians. As proprietors they do
not take to agriculture and other forms
of enterprise that are the backbone
of prosperity. Like the Jews, the Irish
seem to prosper best In contact with
other races. Their nature needs a foil
to work upon. The idea of stopping
Irish immigration to this country Is a
vain dream, and the effort to start a
tide the other fray would doubtless
end in disappointment for the individ
uals involved as well as to Ireland,
however great her needs.
The Hand of the Vandal In London.
It is said that when the structure
immortalized by Dickens as "Fulwood
Rents," which is about to be replaced
by an office building, disappears there
will be practically no landmark left
of Dickens' London to interest the vis
itor. American tourists have long
found the places described by Dickens
among the chief things of Interest In
strolls through the older parts of the
great city. Dickens often took his
characters from real life, and he some
times put real places in his books.
"Fulwood's Rents" was a cheap
lodging house In the neighborhood of
Dickens' own home when he wrote
"Oliver Twist" There in his wander
ings be located Fagin, the master of
the thieves' kitchen. Another neigh
borhood carefully described In "Little
Dorrit" is that around the Marshalsea
prison. In this region so many altera
tions have been made that 'tis said,
the site of the prison Itself cannot now
be told to a certainty. Many of Dick
ens' characters are believed to have
been drawn from personages he had
seen and perhaps known In London.
While they have long, ceased to exist,
the types which they represented re
main and, even in the absence of old
landmarks, still lend interest to the
metamorphosed streets which were
once the haunts of Dickens' pictur
esque people.
The Cuban Masses
The Cuban masses who have at last
united upon a presidential ticket have
never had a chance to give independ
ence a real test upon the island. Call
ing themselves ""Liberals," they have
stood out for the widest distribution
of benefits, whether these benefits took
the sfiape of offices or of money voted
for the soldiers who fought the revolu
tion. In local matters the Liberals
have usually divided their forces and
been beaten by the better organized
Conservatives.
The Cubans who adhere to the Lib
eral cause now are those who stirred
up trouble for the late Palma adminis
tration and led to Interference by the
United StateB. Many observers of Cu
ban affairs assert that the name Lib
eral really covers all those on the
"outside" in politics and that there is
sure to be revolution whichever ele
ment is In power. The Conservative
party includes the business men, and It
differs from the party of the people
In one important particular. It pre
fers the continuance of United .States
control to the unchecked rule of the
Cuban masses.
The census man says that the aggre
gate wealth of American millionaires
has been grossly overrated. That any
body can discover who trusts the evi
dence of tax assessment returns.
With wells, creeps and riven dry,
the question "Whither are we drift
ing?" is easily answered—drifting des
ertward and not far to go.
