Because of the posslblllo of It being
cleat- In one city and raining in another
It was decided to let the plaets have tluee
days In which to make their scores. From
the scores It can bo seen that the defeat
of the Meehan family was due to the high
scoring of the father and the joungest
child Incidentals It was decided that the
youngest ctilldren should play only nine
holes Father McKie must be some golfer,
as he shot a 76, while the best Father Mee
han could do was 31 stlokes worse. The
joungest McKee boy made 73 for the nine
holes, while Miss .leanette Meehan, a ear
younger, wi'S BO strokes worse
The Mls.-es s-irah and Helen .Meehan
plaed better golf than the Misses Lucille
and Frances McKee. there being a difference
of 31 httokes between the two twehe-jenr-old
girls nnd In faint of the I'lilladelphlan.
while the elder Meehan girl was 7 strokes
lowir than her ilal.
The basic principle of golf Is honor, and
as It was not possible to play the match
over a neutral course each family was per
mitted to play oer Its home links and tint
correctness of the score was left to each
family, so there will be no piott'sts. and
the Meehuns will take theli beating like
men and women should

Out in Globe, Arizona, one of my brothers has just
made a record that fills me with justifiable pride. I'll
tell you the story and you be the judge.
E. P. Widner, a stage driver out there, replaced his
lumbering old style relay stage with a Velie Light Six,
making regular trips over mountainous roads, averag
ing 1 00 miles daily.
The other day my brother's master took a party from
Globe to Los Angeles, 81 1 miles in forty hours. That's
only twenty miles per htfur average and ordinarily
nothing to boast of, but when you picture the route,
over rough mountain trails, through Arroyas and
Buffalo Wallows and acioss the most barren desert on
the American continent, it's time to prick up your ears
because that feat represents stamina and performance
equal to the average driver's requirements in 10,000
miles.
Don't you think now, that 1 have reason to be proud?
I have brothers in 2, 4 and 5 passenger models avail
able now at $1185.00.
Sincerely Yours,
Velie Light Six No. I
