And the man from whom the voice came looked about as much like a wreck as a dreadnaught Just off the ways. He was somewhat over six feet in height, had a Jack Dempsey chest, a tanned face, blue eyes and engaging smile. His name was Howard Folwell. He was singing as he strode back and forth in the basement of the Riverside Country club waiting for his companions to array themselves in golf attire and Rally forth with him to whang the ball around the course for an hour or two. But though he sang and though he seemed carefree and happy there really was a cloud on Folwell's life. The cloud was the fact that Beatrice Jackson, holder of the women's championship at the Riverside club, scorned Ms advances and smiled sweetly upon Lem Wheeling, rival of T* HJI*11 i Folwell in love, in business and in lown Mill ton Just the evening before Beatrice iii b« nad told Folwell in no uncertain Starting June 1st, 1937 terms thar 8ne neveri never, never GRINDING 3 DAYS A WEEK i «°uld «™ for a man who 8ltced Ws drives and was a dub with a putter.

Contrary to the usual situation, tills caddy Idolized Folwell in spite of the letter's poor playing. Always the caddy prophesied a brilliant future for Folwell at the ancient game of golf, provided only he could get the proper amount of confidence in his own ability. Now the caddy came close and whispered to Folwell mysteriously. *Say, you can beat out that guy. 1 got the dope. My brother's an Inventor, see? He's invented a vacuum golf ball. It's almost as light as air. It'll go a mile if you hit it an easy swat. You use this ball. Show up this Wheeling guy. Win the dame. See?" "Huh?" gasped Folwell, in great astonishment. "You hold me--you hoid me!" exclaimed the caddy. "I'll tee It up for you. Then you hit it--just nice an' easy. Don't strain. Just watch it go. Nobody can stop It." The caddy's excitement and enthusiasm communicated themselves to Folwell. In intense hopefulness he watched the caddy tee the ball. Then he gripped his club loosely as the caddy straightened up. He heard the caddy yell "Fore" and saw Beatrice and Lem about 250 yards ahead of him turn and look and then laugh, ns though amused at the mere thought that he might drive that far.
