�Renovating the Old Golf Ball
Perhaps this is the great bonanza of which the caddies are dreaming
��The ball is forced be- tween the two spring- holders on the cover of one of the paint pots and is lightly im- paled on the center pin
��The cover of the can becomes the holder for dipping the ball into the enamel, after which it is screwed back into position
���WHEN the gulf ball loses its original good looks and the paint begins to chip off and crack, it is thenceforth regarded as praclicalK- Avorthless for a good game. But a ball which has been coated with enamel paint may be cleaned and painted again, making it as got)d as new. A kit for cleaning and painting the balls consists of two cans, one No. 2, for holding sufficient enamel paint to cover fifty balls, and one No. i, for a supply of paint re- mover, of which three bottles will be re- quired. One bottle of enamel should also be included in the equipment. .\ de- vice for holding the balls during the dijiping and dr\ing jjrocess has been inxented \>y (•. H. Lambert, of Asheville, N. C. It consists of two spring- holders and a central jiin which fastens to the top of the can. '
The ball to be renovated is first washed and tlried and the old paint thorough- 1\- removed. Then it is forced between the two s|)ring-hoIders on the co\'cr ^(1 that it is lightly impaled on the center pin. It is then (lijiped into the enam- el, withdrawn and the cowr re\ersed and screwed on the can, lea\'ing the ball in its ])osi(ion on the center pin until it is |)erfectly dry.
In about two hours it will be tlr\- enough to handle ;ind in about six or eight houid It may be used again in the game.
("are should be taken that the ball is entirely co\-ere-. If too much of the thinner should be used and one coating of enamel should not gi\"e sat- isfactor>' results the ball siiould be redipped, but it should first l)e rex^ersed to insure an e\"en coating.

ABinBl.K-Hl.OWKR that is shaped like a cigar and that (ills like a fountain pen eliminates the muss and trouble encoun- tered with the common blower. After the little vial shown in the illustra- tion is ])artl>- filled, hundreds of bubliK-s may be blown without further trouble. The blower is a source of great amusement to children, anil mothers like it because it does not drip the suds. The youngsters will doubtless regard it as being as superior to (he ordinary bubble-blower as a I'erfecto is to a pipe.
