the strong Camp Funaton eleven here yesterday by a score of 7 to Two beautiful forward passes by Cspt Laun the powerful right half back of the PikcrY eleven to Fort quarterback ultimately resulted In the defeat of the visitors As a result of the victory the Arkansas soldiers now claim the championship of tho south and middle west For the moat part the Pikers employed straight football smashing

Galusha of Albuquerque and was trailed by Avent of Hickory Valley Tenn who also handled her iu this stake Pinto Bess is a daughter of the famous Momoney owned by Avent ana is very much like her sire

the present year Mr Fellows sent Cincinnati Nat to the prairies in charge of Noah' Brock in order to give him exiierlence on prairie chickens and also to widen his range- Brock is a good breaker and can finish a shooting dog in the highest style of the art but he has had little experience in running dogs In field triala However he knew the requirements ami -the two months that Cincinnati Nat had

the ability to play a ball from a hazardous position is an asset which wins many games As a general rule it is better not to- take risks when your opponent is down to you Then the situation calls for concentrated thought to maintain your advantage and keep your opponent where you have him The ablest of golfers occasionally meet with misfortunes' and most of them maintain that when the ball is foond in an absolutely Impossible situation the best plan is to concede the hole The player who adopts this course should guard himsflf against developing a tendency to yield too easily 1 No golfer should ever despair no matter what kind of an opponent he finds himself pitted against The tendency to he thrown off fame by tho playing of a superior opponent is a weakness which must be overcome The biggest results come always to the fighter The Dangers of DUtance 0 If your opponent has a longer' drive let that fact disconcert you Accept the situation chetrfully and let It inspire you to your best effort without leading you into trying to got a carry that is beyond your ordinary power Trying too hard for distance leads to disaster in the same way that in a ball game a who tries to "knoak the cover off the is a pretty easy mark for the opposing pitcher Ten or IS yards extra length from the tee while a help does not win the hole Sol this advantage of a rival should not dis-ccncert you Go right ahead playing your usual game And don't sacrifice steadiness to the natural desire to accomplish something beyond your power We an know players who seem to have the remarkable ability to do their best work from seemingly impossible situationa Recently 1 watched a very interesting match between two players both of whom played wonderfully well They were an Interesting contrast tn type One
