Now as to the drive from the tee. am going to divide this into three parts and we will call them Hie grip, the .stance and the stroke. How to Hold the Club The grip is very important and above all you should take a grip on your driver that feels free, easy.and natural, and it is true that hardly any two professionals use the same grip. better. The most common of all {wish to hook I place my right foot grips is the one with .the fingers a?Td thumbs of each hand around the club and not in any way interlocked or lapped over. » I have tried out several different grips and I am now using the interlocking grip, which is as follows: When the club is in my hands, the front finger of my left hand is between the third and fourth fingers of my right hand, and likewise the end of the little finger of my right hand lies almost between the first two knuckles of my left hand, with the thumb of my left hand along on the Huh between thf end of the third finger of my right hand and the palm of that hand, while the thumb of my right hand, in place of resting along on the club and pointing down the club, is placed over on the left h*nd side of the club. ,> Now grip your club as above sugfurther from the line of flight than the left. The square stance is with both f«»et the same distance from the line of flight, while witfi the open stance the left foot is further from the line of flight than the right, and what is called the closed stance is with the let foot three or four inches nearer the line of flight than the right. As you address the ball, be sure that you driver lays flat on the ground behind the ball. Don't let the toe or the heel of the driver be raised from the ground and don't stand so far from the ball that you must reach for it to make the stroke. When you have taken your grip and stance, flex your knees a little so that your weight is much imore on your heels than on the remainder of your feet, and then relax every muscle of your body so there is no stiffness in any of your muscles or joints and then waggle VjhiciSSt'rj !

Practice holding and waggling your driver and pick is up every time you get a chance so that automatically, without any thought on your part, your hands will go to nJace as naturally as you handle your fork at the table. , How to Stand For a'drive from the tee,.I UM the square stance, which means that my feet are practically the same distance from the line of flight, which means the direction or line in which you expect the ball to travel after it is hit. If you are inclined to slice, it will help you greatly to have your left foot two or three inches nearer the line of flight than the right, and if you are inclined to hook, "put your left foot further back from the line of flight 'I*# «* ' «K«»ination.' - IF yon don%J AIM H.

In order to clear up a misunderstanding1 among the people as to the condition of the eyes I want to say a few words to you so there will be less worry about your eyes. In the first, place, anyone forty years old or more, unable to read or sew without glasses, this condition is not a sickness or bad eyes, It is merely an «bnorraal condition which 'can well be corrected with a good pair of glaslfes. Of course younger people have their eyes examined an<J, we find they are either short sighted, long sighted or we find that condition causes astigmatism. If you or your children have astigmatism that doesn't mean by any means that your eyes are bad or sick. Astigmatism is merely a Latin word to indicate abnormal shape of an eye or an eye which is not perfectly round. This eye is generally as good as any other eye, but the patient is unable to see as cl^irly. Nervousness, dizziness, head aches may be due to astigmatism. The greatest possible injury you bring on yourself is by, buying ready . made glasses. You never know what you've got until your eyes are ruined. Go to a reliable scientific optometrist, who does nothing else but test eyes and make glasses. I don't use any drugs in your eyes and my wortf in this township seems to be very much appreciated. I have examined eytes for thirty years and also grind my own glasses. If you have trouble with your eyes come any Monday afternoon between 12:00 and 3:00 o'clock.
