Engineer Refused to Spoil This “Lie”

Pinehurst, N. C. —The defers ence paid to golf here is impressive. Miss Metcalf Keating of the Agawam Hunt club, hooked her drive to the railroad tracks near the club house just as a train was coming along. The engineer, leaning out of the cab window, saw the ball come to rest between the rails, saw it perch itself upon an ideal but precarious tee in the form of a tiny pile of cinders, grasped the situation and the airbrake control at the same time and brought the train to a sudden stop. The passengers may have beeh slightly shaken up in the process, but Miss Keating’s Ue was not disturbed. The train waited until a good recovery shot had been played and then resumed its journey northward to less considerate climes. ►WWW WW WWW WW W W.W .WWWWWW-W-,
