The Royal and Ancient Same of GolfWritten for the Herald: Among the summer recreations ai Cape May none ts more perslstentlj followed, season after season, than golf, and perhapi this may be ex plained in some meteure by the fat of the ideal conditions which <xl here for the playing of the game The Cape Mey links are second to nonr along the Jersey coast GoK has been called the Nation, 1 Game of Scotland. There if -doubt, however, as to whether it was of Sect tish origin, or whether it was Intro duced Into that co-tnlry from Holiacd. The word golf lu K* early forme was cuff, gcuff. or gowff. the Uet having been the original proounNation. The term Ii derived from _th» Germar kolbe, meaning a club, or In Dutch, kolf. which being so nearly like the ime golf.would seem to point alrong-

to a Dutch origin.

When golf was first played In Scotland la unknown, but history shows that the game had attained such popularity In that country by the year 1467 that the Scottish parliament beame greatly alarmed lest U might upplant the older and nobler practice of archery Accordingly a law w» passed that "golf be utterly cried

down and not used.” Little

ever, was given the law, and fourteen

years later a new Act wi

encoufoge archeryf and to "oppo.e

onr sold enlmiea of England.'

GoU still continued 'to' be played, till, twenty ywsra Ister, In 1*#1. law evidently Intended to be final wi .-nacted, tor certain pains and penal

were now provided. Here Jt is

the original Scotch:

Inlet and Lake, and you never fail of salt breezes over tide-waters. 6 BECAUSE there is no better place on earth to sail or fish or hunt or rest. 7 BECAUSE it is planned, built and conducted on a scale that has compelled success. 8 tfECAUSE the publicutilities, avenues,roads, pavements, curbs and sewers are made, paid and free. 9 BECAUSE you can pay ten-dollers per month on ground and your life will be insured, or pay cash and get a discount of $6o. 10 BECAUSE if you build liefore July ist, 1910, you will receive a bonus, reducing the cost of your ground to one-third of its real value. 11 BECAUSE the founders are the same as at Wildwood, - where land has brought eighteen times as much as the founders got for it. 12 BECAUSE Wildwood Crest has the benefit of the experience of the founders in mak i ng Wildwood, 13 BECAUSE lire title is insured and you cannot put money where it will be safer or more profitable or derelopement as rapid. 14 BECAUSE thpreis no other place of equal merit where you canbuyaslow or where success is as sure,and •15 BECAUSE there is not an nndesireahle lot in this sale and the sale will close very soon. sBEonwkira baker BROTHERS t-x 727 Drutl Bulltlng, PklU., or At Wilut-uiii, U. ,
