THE GOLF LINKS ' IUI0 TENNIS COURTS s NOTES OF PLAYERS NEW AND OLD i Interesting Gossip of the Links aad th< Numerous Enthusiastic Players Wbc Daily Enjoy the game— Card and Ttt Parties a Regular Featpje. ■ The next will .be mixed doubles, watch • the bulletin board and consult Mr. J k Rome Battle when desiring information. After the partners were desided upon, 1 t the players went to the courts and im- - J mediately began the first round. They : . played the best out of three games end 0 also changed courts on the odd games. This madf it very even and fair for all. " Miss K. Curtis won from Miss E. Davis, J the score being 7 6 and 6-1. Miss D. Curtis won from Miss C. Zim- ' merman by default. 1 Miss Tallman won from Miss Peace 1 by the score of 6-4 and 6-4.

Yardley by 6-1 and . r 6-1. It wae very close match between Miss M. Starr and Miss Core Shields and prob _ ably lasted longer than any of the ' others. The score was 6-4; 1-6 and 6-2. ' Miss Bessie Brown, who was welcomed to the courts aa a new member, but ' an old friend, won from Mrs. A. C. Cola1 han in two straight sets. The score, C-l, < - and 6-1. < Mrs. K| S.

' They all had the same feeling as » Jeffries hid at the end of the prire light. They shook hands and congratulated the ' » winner. > • An afternooll^*tha was given by the { McCabe sisters for the players. The ' , entire affair was a great success. The ' - entire affair was a great success. The ' ' second round and semi-finals will be j played Friday. The two best records ' r will be reserved for the players, but 1 . there will be plenty of room for the ■ 1 regular players also. Several balls will ' J be awarded to the winner on Saturday . after the finals hare been played. There 1 r will be some good playing in the finals, 1 all members interested in the game c should come and see them. < Everything was centered dn the tennis tournament to-day and the gblf playing 1 was consequently rather slack. As the ! greater number of the ladies were en- ( tered in the tennis tournament and could ( i not play golf to day, Mrs. Bullock's in ( ; vitation golf tournament was postponed until to-morrow afternoon. Mrs. L N? Megargee and Mrs. Vane ' - played their firat round to-day. Mr. M. K-- Keiffer one of the best - players of the Huntingdon valley club ( took out a card to-day. > Mr. S. S. Daniel who used to be a regular player at the Club paid us a short * . visit for old times sake. We are sorry he will not be able to spend the summer . here. » Harry Maris has started to play again > Mrs. W. P. Jones played a round this ( morning under the instruction of Dough- j r crtyMiss Marian Reed is becoming almost | as regular a player as her sister. Miss ( Martha also played in the afternoon. Of course Miss G. Davis was out on j the course. She rarely misses a day. ; ( F. W. W. Graham has resumed his playing after an interim of aeven weeks. Mias H. C. Shearer was out getting her j game in trim for the tournament to , r morrow. . S. J. Castner and F. CI Pequignot are i enthusiastic about the game and are im- ' proving daily. The social atmosphere at the club is I - one of the most attractive feature and I the ladies are always planning somthing 1 pleasant to add to the enjoyment of the I members and visitors. Miss Mary Mc : ? Cabe and Mias Margaret McCabe gave 1 a tea today to the tournament players J and their friends. The porch and- parlor : r were filled with the guests and all were < i having a very pleasant time. * Knowing that one ci the most im-' :

portent features of the Saturday afternoon tea* is the music, and not being able to secure Prof. Gordohn as in the past; President L. H. Ayres has made other equally good arrangements. Mrs. Harry Hertzberg, so well known to music in Philadelphia will direct the music at the teas. It is needless to say that Mr. Hertzberg will render a very fine program at his initial concert at the Club next Saturday. Mrs. F. J. Graves and ber friends will receive at the tea on July 9. The concert will be from 460 to 660 P. M. The Golf Club continues to be the centre of attraction to a large number of members and tbeir friends. Saturday was as fine a day as one could wish and about three hundred people attended the most excellent concert given by Theodore Gordohn's orchestra of the hotel Cape May or spent the time on the links or* on the tennis Both the golf and tennis had a goodly ! number of spectators, who encourage^ j tbeir particular favorites with applause as a good play was made. On the broad veranda of the Club the gay throng was gathered in close communication. The ladles aid gentlemen mingled their gay sallies and while the strain of music permeated the cool air and made one gild be alive. Mrs. Lewis Ayres was the hostess of the regular Saturday afternon tea and ably assisted by Mis Sussex Davis, Mrs. Richard Norris, Miss Rena Dimont and Miss Margaret Dimond. The .clock putting was a feature of the day, and waa favored by the larger number of spectators who sat in the cool shade of the veranda and viewed the contest. One peculiar feature of thep lay this is the large number of now players taking up this elusive game. During the days when there *re no they enjoy themselves to the fullest extent. The course is clear, there are not many critical 'experts | around, and there is plenty of room to ! spread themselves over the course' ac { cording to their number and importance. And they are important ; for it is out of this material that the ranks I of the golfers is steadily swelled; through tliem, the popularity of the | is steadily growing. S. J. Cast j ner, K. C. Pequignof, R. Devereaux, J. j A. Lena han, Mrs. J. A. Lenahan, and a number of others are enthusiastic members of this class. Miss Marion Reed has started play for the summer. She and Miss Martha Reed played a two-ball match in the morning. L. Smith and W. W. I-cach have a daily match in the early morning. Air. Smith has feeling that he ought to trim i the Dr., but his opponent's game is a | serious obstacle to any such arrange 1 ment. Since G. H. Parr lias acquired the j habit of breaking records he has moved up into faster company. -He is now trying conclusions with tne present i champion of the course, W. S. Reyburn • afternoon he came in all square. W. R. King came out this afternoon i looking for his friend W. D. Frishmctli. 1 Frishmuth just escaped a trimming ; getting away before King arrived. . King is preparing to arri+e earlier : next time. Samuel Bispham knows that the only ' to become a crack golfer is to start • in youth. With this in view he is eui couraging his children, Miss Eleanor and Master Samuel, Jr., to take an interest : in the game and they are playing and

- improving daily under his skillful care. E The golf club has had no more oone si stent friend than Joseph Moorehead, e and it is with pleasure that we note one i. of the junior members of the family c learning the game under the expert e care of W. S. Reyburn. v We regret that so promising a player v as Miss Afarie Starr should omit her e daily round. We earnestly hope tnat s she is only enjoying tennis for a little a variety and will shortly return to her a favorite game with renewed determin ation and confidence. Entries are coming in rapidly for Mrs. r It is useless fo save money unless you Bullock's invitation tournament to morr row afternoon. The prize, a silver cup j is on exhibition in the club house.

WORK BEGUN ON ILLUMINATING ARCHES

Work has been begun upon the new | system of lighting of the boardwalk . here and will be rapidly completed. The . new scheme provides for arches at >n I tervals of three hundred feet for the j whole length of the boardwalk- and be tween each two arches will be column* surmounted by powerful electric lamps. | The arches will be highly ornamental and will contain many high power Tung s ten electric lamps which will make the

> walk quite brilliant as well as ornament ; it. The walk has heretofore been light- ° ed with arc lights placed at regular in tervals, but much better results are exi peeted from the new system. The arches will be so constructed that in - case of the ultimate change of location of the boardwalk to a point farther out I and nearer tbe sea the arch— can also be taken down and reconstructed on tho : new walk..

( ; Stirs Educational Authority to Make m Investigation and R%j port. U ■■ The State Board of Education lag| week took action toward the ascertainment of the correct solution of changes that school children are over; worked, end consequently they have imperfect knowledge in many subject following resolutions covering this matter were adopted: "Criticism ia general in almost everycommunity in the State by para ts, by practical and professional people, and particularly by newspapers, which undertake to voice the sentiments of the people, and by all persons who have given the subject attention, that the scholars in our public schools are overwith work, end their studiae too numerous and too complex for them to properly absorb, with tha result of an imperfect knowledge of many subjects. "There is a general complaint that these studies are not sufficiently practo be of much avail, in the ordinary affairs of life. "The great majority of scholars unthe burdens of life at an early aboift when' graduated from tin grades and by reason of tha above conditions are sent forMi imperequipped. "While the discussion is rife and action by the properly constituted authoris called I for on every side, it is that the State Board of Education should take a leading part in zhi« matter. ~ ^ V'iq "This problem of ascertaining the cor- | rect solution of fhe above difficulties of I securing whereby the best equipped be obtained and the most practical and informed courses of study be adopted, be referred to the committee on education to report at their earliest convenience to the Board;" The petition of the New Jersey Conj gress of Mothers to have' a course of general domestic science established in the schools was referred to the com-, mittee on education.
