GOLFERS AND CHURCH.
MINISTER’S PLEA. Received June 28, 9.50 a.m. LONDON. June 27. “If you can afford Sunday golf you can spare flic Church a few shillings,” writes Rev. S. Ford in the Hampstead parish magazine. “It will help you avoid golf gambling if you say, ‘I can’t spare two shillings to bet this hole, but must send it to the parson.’ “I friend told me, ‘I can pray on a golf course as well ns in church.’ I replied, “maybe but you don’t. In any case, the prayers used on the golf course would, if used in a church, crack the roof’.”
