ct breeding and good taste will always remember the respect due an
older man, and will not make the vulgar error of telling his employer
for God's sake shut up before he gets a brassie in his-------- ear.

A wife playing with her husband should do everything in her power to
make the game enjoyable for the latter. She should encourage him, when
possible, with little cheering proverbs, such as, "If at first you don't
succeed, try, try again," and she should aid him with her advice when
she thinks he is in need of it. Thus, when he drives into the sycamore
tree on number eleven, she should say, "Don't you think, dear, that if
you aimed a little bit more to the right...." et cetera. When they come
to number fourteen, and his second shot lands in the middle of the lake,
she should remark, "Perhaps you didn't hit it hard enough, dear." And
when, on the eighteenth, his approach goes through the second-story
window of the club-house, she should say, "Dear, I wonder if you didn't
hit that too hard?" Such a wife is a true helpmate, and not merely a
pretty ornament on which a silly husband can hang expensive clothes,
and if he is the right sort of man, he will appreciate this, and refrain
from striking her with a niblick after this last remark.

A young wife who does not play the game herself can, nevertheless, be
of great help to her husband by listening patiently, night after night,
while he tells her how he drove the green on number three, and took a
four on number eight (Par five), and came up to the fourteenth one under
fours. Caddies should be treated at all times with the respect and
pity due one's fellow creatures who are "unfortunate." The sins of the
fathers are visited upon the children, and one should always remember
that it is not, after all, the poor caddy's fault that he was born
blind.

AN AFTERNOON AT THE OLD FARM WITH THE DICE

"Craps" is a game played with dice, which is often popular in the men's
coat and smoking-rooms before and during formal receptions, balls,
recitals, etcetera. It should not be imagined, however, that "craps" is
a sport for men only; on the contrary, smart women are enthusiastically
taking up this sport in numerous localities, and many an affair which
started as a dinner party or a musicale has ended in a crap game, with
all the guests seated in an excited circle on the floor, contributing to
the host's efforts to make expenses for the evening.

It is in connection with these "mixed"
