GOING TO START SMOKING. A PIPE?
Here's Some Advice That May ? e Helpful
I watched the plan in the rail-
way carriage relight his pipe ten
.times, and when he finally emptied
out the howl there was still a• third
of unsmoked tobacco.
There are many men who are
not getting the fullest satisfaction
out of their pipes, and many others
who would like to smoke a pipe but
have never made a success of it:
so I sought the advice of Messrs.
Alfred Dunhill, Ltd., on how to
make the most of your smoke,
writes "An Old Briar Boy" in
"Answers." .
The natural inclination of a. man
who decides to try a pipe is to buy
a cheap one at first to see whether
he likes pipe -smoking. That is his
first mistake and the one likely to
put him off from the first draw,
The cheap .briar pipe is cut from
immature briar which contains sap.
Until :that is dried out the smoker
. is going to be burning sap as well'
as tobacco with unpleasant results.
He has, therefore, to "break in"
the pipe and season it himself.
That is why some smokers start-
. ed the practice •of burning rum,
whisky or brandy in the bowl of a
new pipe in an attempt to speed up
the drying out •of the sap and limit
their own discomfort.
In addition, if the sap is dried
out of immature briar by any sea-
soning process it leaves the wood
porous with the result that the
cheap briar quickly becmes foul.
Oldest Are Best.
A good Bruyere -pipe is made
from dead wood. It is cut from the
heavily -developed roots of the
Bruyere shrub, which grows in hot,
dry sandy .districts such as the
North African desert.
The most valuable arc those
which, after living to a great age,
have died naturally in the ground.
Seasoned naturally whilst still liv-
ing and amenable to .change, the
Bruyere root is light, tough and
close -grained, for the fibres have
contracted and -'are not porous.
And because it contains no sap a
true dead -wood Bruyere will give
you nothing but the smoke of the
tobacco from the first; and because
it is not porous it will smoke for
many years without becoming foul.
The other popular choice of pipe
is the 011e with a rough finish
which, compared with the smooth
Bruyere, is a comparatively .recent
innovation.
This is the pipe in which the
grain stands out in relief and looks
rather like the bark of a tree.
It was discovered by accident.
Alfred Dunhill in 1914 was experi-
menting with Algerian briar which
possessed a beautiful grain,
Results, however, were disap-
pointing due to the fact that the
Algerian briar root is spongy and
full of sap. Tests were discontinued
and the unused blocks of root put
on one side and forgotten.
The room in which they were
left happened to be next to a fur-
nace, and months later it was not-
iced . that the heat had dried and
shrunk them so that the grain stood
out in relief.
Eventually a method of seasoning'
was perfected, and the spongy
Algerian briar root shrunk into a
hard sapless "shell," admirably
suited for smoking.
Tobaccos are classified mild,
medium and full strength or strong.
Here again the mistake of the new- .
comer to pipe -smoking is to be
frightened of a full strength and
choose a mild tobacco, The result
is that be burns bis tongue.
Generally speaking, the stronger
the tobacco the cooler it will burn,
It is much better policy to start
+- .7
off with a full strength tobacco and
cool smoke, and then if the to-
bacco is too strong or heady for
you, conte, down the scale until you
find a tobacco combining the right
degree of strength and coolness
to suit your particular taste.
For every pinch of tobacco you
press into the bowl of your pipe,
you will generally have to light
another match. You are, in effect,
filling your bowl with alternate
layers of tobacco... and air. A layer
of tobacco burns, uses up the oxy-
gen in the layer of't'air beneath it
and the pipe goes out; and thus
the process is repeated.
When you fill a pipe, take plenty
of tobacco into your hand or fill
it from the bottom of your -pouch..
Feed the tobacco into the bow1 be-
tween your fingers in one continu-
ous stream.
The question of how much to-
bacco you put in depends, of course,
upon your own strength of draw.
At first the tendency is to pack
too much into the bowl. For the
average • smoker, thotigh, the to-
bacco in a well-filled pipe will tap
out or pull out gently in one con-
tinuops c, finder..
And, `' course, it is this con
tinuous*cylinder of tobacco that is -
going to give you a continuous
smoke.
_ Having tilled your pipe you will
need to light it twice. First char
the top shreds of tobacco and press
them down gently into the bowl;
light up again and then you should .
be all set for half an hour or naore's
continuous smoking.
There is much more to smoking
.a pipe than a cigarette. The best
time for one is after a heal, when
you settle down and relax, and give
yourself up consciously to the en-
joyment of your smoke. -
Happy pipe Dream;.
Take it slowly and easily. If !'t
has been properly filled it will stay
alight all right, Common fault -of
beginners, particularly if they have
been inveterate cigarette smokers,
is to draw away like puffing billies.
The result is that, like a fire with
a draught, the tobacco burns quick-
ly and fiercely and the pipe gets
hot.
Leave about one -sixteenth of an
inch of carbon round the bowl to
prevent risk of its burning, but no
more. Too much carbon may cause.
the bowl to crack.
The ash should be immediately
emptied from the bowl after smok-
ing, and when not in use the pipe
should be kept bowl downwards
with the stem in the air. After
smoking let your pipe cool com-
pletely before re -smoking it.
A dirty pipe affects the flavour
of the tobacco. Keep both bowl and
stem clean. T-Tappy pine dreams to

In a recent column we quoted
at some length from an article by
Arthur Daley in The New York
Sunday Tinges in which the author
attempted to prove—and made a
rather good job of doing so—that
basketball was a faster game than
hockey.. If we Ierne.inber correctly
we conuaaented that this would pro-
bahly be considered treason, 'napery
or some such by ardent followers
of other sports.
* 'k
For once we were right, and Mr.
Daley's ears must he red from the
thingss loyal fans have been calling
him for his brashness. Strangely
enough, in the pair of letters re-
produced in the correspondence sec-
tion of the latest Sunday Times
issue, two United States writers
come to the defence of two Cana-
dian sports.
* * :k
One of these, Stanley Fischler,
of Brooklyn, says:
"Arthur Daley, calling basket-
ball faster than hockey, overlooks
several factors. In ice hockey speed
is perhaps the most important fac-
tor, whereas in basketball this is
not so. In ba:ketball there is more
reliance on accurate set shooting
from afar and the strategic place-
ment of tall men near the basket.
In hockey these or similar . slow
methods are not so prevalent. This
is because there is a goalkeeper in
hockey and the best way to ccore
is by working the puck in close
by the use of speed. I disagree with
Mr. Daley's statement that there is
a greater illusion of speed in hockey.
I find the great illusion to be in
basketball, because of the smallness
of the court."
* 1' :k
Then, way from down in Vir-
ginia, Charles M. Mottley writes:
"Arthur Daley in 'What Is Really
the Fastest Sport?' does not men-
tion box lacrosse, a game played
in Canada. Lacrosse combines many
of the speediest features of Jai Alai,
Basketball and Hockey. The la-
crosse stick imparts a speed to
the ball comparable to the 'cesta.'
The floor speed of the players is
greater than that of basketball be-
cause they are not hampered by
dribbling restrictions. It is faster
than hockey because the ball can
move forward without zone bar-
riers. Box Lacrosse is also free
from the many whistle -blowing
slowdowns of hockey and basket-
. ball."
•,k * ,
• So there the matter rests, at least
for the time being. The point about
lacrosse is well taken; in fact, The
Times adds a footnote to this let-
ter stating that Lacrosse is greatly
increasing in popularity in the Un-
ited States, with Baltimore an im-
portant centre of the game. Too
bad that here in Canada some smart
Alec once cursed it with the tag
"BOXLA." It's a word that fits
into headlines better than either
"Box Lacrosse" or even "Lacrosse."
But in the opinion -of many it did
more to keep people away from
watching it than any other cause.
BOXLAI UGH!!
k * *
We have night baseball. night
basketball and—butfor the efforts
of those who consider that betting
on horses automatically becomes a
sin after suntlotvn--we would have
night trotting, And now, ac,cording
to Frank Waldman, we are faced
with the prospect of after -dark golf
which, according to him, should
be a boon to those who have to
work during the day. It should also
be even more of a boon to mos-
quitoes, moths, and other winged
creatures of the night.
:k * *
What was probably the shortest
golf tournament in history was
held in Southern California the
other night. The tournament also
was the first nocturnal affair in
California history. Jack Burke Jr.,
won the special nine -hole, four -man
invitational after -dark affair which
was used successfully to arouse in-
terest in the $10,000 Lakewood Park
Invitational Tournament. The other
golfers who competed were Lloyd
Mangrum, Jing Perrier and Henry
Ransom.

This history -making quartet was

those nasty little gasoline model
airplanes that wake you `oo early
Sunday mornings
Jini Walker believes his "Golf
Spotlight" will prove a great boon
to the average, public links golfer.
"Look at it this way." Walker ex-
plained, "Ordinarily, the only per-
son who can play - golf week clays
on a public course is the fellow
who is out of a job. Unless a man
works at night, he can't get out
and play golf during the day. The
result usually is that he doesn't get
to play golf at all. The only time
he could play isover weekends, and
on those days the public courses
are so crowded he probably won't
got to play anyway."
A PRISONER in a Lisbon, Port-
ugal, jail complained that he was
being "tortured" by being served
oatmeal for breakfast, chicken
broth and chicken for lunch, and
steak, fried eggs and potatoes for
dinner every clay.
