Se aes ee cc "THURSDAY, JULY _ 25th, 1929 THE HAILEYBURIAN "Work Made Expensive is Definition of Golf 'Similar to Other Occupations; New Rules of Play Are Explained Golf is a form of work made 'expensive enough for a man to enjoy it. It is physical and men- tal exertion made attractive by the fact that you have to dress for it in a swell clubhouse. Golf is what letter carrying, ditch digging and carpet beating would be if those three tasks had 'to be performed on the same hot afternoon in short pants and col- ored socks by gentlemen who re- -quire a different implement for every mood. / Golf is the simplest looking game in the world when you de- cide to take it up, and the tough- -est after you have been at it ten or twelve years. It is probably the only known game a man can play as long asa quarter of a century and then discover it was too deep for him in the first place. The game is played on careful- ly selected grass with little white balls and as many clubs. as the player can afford. These little balls cost from 75 cents to $25, and it is possible to support a family of ten people (all adults) for five months on the money Te- presented by. the balls lost by some golfers in a single after- né6on. ; A golf course has nine or eigh- teen holes, eight or seventeen of which are unnecessary and put in to make the game harder. "hole" is a tin cup in the centre of the "green." A "green" is a small parcel of grass costing $1.98 a blade and usually located be- tween a brook and a_ couple of trees, or a lot of "unfinished e€x- cavation." The idea is to get the golf ball into each of the cups in the few- est possible strokes and the greatest number of words. The ball must not be thrown, pushed or carried. It must be propelled by about $200 worth of curious looking implements ¢s- pecially designed to provoke the owner. . : Each implement has a specific purpose and ultimately some gol- fers get to know what the pur- pose is. They are the exceptions. After each hole has been com- pleted, the golfer counts his strokes. Then he subtracts six and says: "Made that in five. 'That's one above par. Let's play for fifty cents next hole, too, Ed." After the final hole, the golfer adds up his score and stops when he reaches forty-three. He then has a shower, a pint of gin, sings "Sweet Adeline" with six or eight other liars, and calls it the end of a perfect day. Make Good Progress New Catholic Church (Continued irom Page 1) they will present as fine an ap- pearance as the previous ones. Provision is made in the new buildings for a_ central heating system, the boiler rooms, fuel storage, etc., being located at the east end. Under the body of the Church is a large basement hall and at the west end, under the main entrance, are provided bur- fal vaults. Concrete floors will cover all the basement space and the whole will be as nearly fire- proof as it can be made. No estimate of the time which will be required to complete the buildings has been made at cvhis stage, but it appears that the ex- terior at least will be completed well before the cold weather ar- rives in the fall. A Sport Notes. A number of golfers from the Timmins Club will be in Hailey- bury on Saturday for a round or two with the local club members. Arrangements for the entertain- ment of the visiting northerners are almost complete, and it is expected that an enjoyable after- noon will be spent. Haileybury lost another soft- ball game on Tuesday evening at the public school grounds, when New Lnskeard took the long end of an 18-16 score. The visitors broke out in front in the first in- ning and were never headed. The game was marred by an accident to one of the spectators, when a bat flew from the hands of one of the players and hit Miss Rhoda McCagherty, causing scalp wounds, which, fortunately were not serious. Haileybury has one more home game to play, that with Cobalt next Tuesday evening, which will very probably wind up the softball season in town. Local Sharp Shooters Form New Gun Club A gun club has been formed in Haileybury, with a trap-shooting apparatus set up in Farr's Park, and a number of enthusiastic members already signed up. The first shoot was held on Tuesday evening, followed by an organiz- ation meeting, and it appears that A|the sport has taken hold of the local men. No records were bro- ken at the inaugural shoot, but it is expected that with practice there will be some real sharp- shooting witnessed before the season is over. It is understood that intertown shoots are being arranged with the trapshooters of Cobalt, and these will likely be held weekly.

Re- mains of the clothing consisted of part of a shirt, socks and what seems to have been a sweater. Inspector Moore considers that the tragedy occurred at least two years ago. No flesh remained on the bones, according to the re- port of the officer who investi- gated. NO BO Get a tin of New % Rite-Good = Combination Ma!

Struck by Bat While Watching Ball Game Miss Rhoda McCagherty _ re- ceived a painful injury on Tues- day evening, when she was_hit on the head by a bat which flew from the hands of one of the players in the softball game be- tween Haileybury and New Lis- keard teams on the public school grounds here. She was knocked to the ground and received a cut on the head, but her injuries are not serious. Miss McCagherty was picked up and taken to her home, where she received medi- cal treatment. A word of warning might be given to the spectators at the}, games. The grounds are not large and there is a tendency to stand too close to the players for safety. People should keep a reasonable distance away, as there is always the chance of a bat or a ball slipping from the players' hands. Bear in Berry Patch Two Miles from Town Seen by Mrs. J. Ogle}, Mrs. Jas. Ogle, Rorke Avenue, had the somewhat unusual exper- ience of coming quite close to a large black bear last week, when she was picking berries on the West Road about two miles from Haileybury. Mrs. Ogle had gone out early in the morning and, while she was engaged in gather- ing the fruit about one hundred yards from the road, the bear suddenly arose almost at her feet. He had evidently spent the night in the berry patch. Bruin took to his heels imme- diately on seeing that there was a human being encroaching on his food supply and made high speed towards the denser woods. Mrs. Ogle was not particularly frightened, but felt a bit nervous. She continued with her task of picking berries, keeping a wary eye on the surrounding woods, but failed to see any further trace of the bear. ss) \ : 90% of our employees are Shareholders F the 350 employees of Can- ada Northern Power Cor- poraticn Limited, and its subsid- jaries, 90% ot them are holders of its 7% Cumulative Preferred Stock.
