"Time PJease." In the' dressing-room of thp clubhouse at the Glendowie golf links is a wooden, white-faced clock, which was put out of action hy an unfortunate swing by a player who was demonstrating a stroke. A few days a'go a yisitor from Australia remarked that having stopped at ten minute^io six it must he an old hotel clock. He. said it reminded him of one in the hoteL at Molong,' which pointed always to 5.58 p.m.,' and at "that time the porter would enter and say, "Time, gentlemen, time for another." Five minutes later, someone looked up at the clock at Glendowie, and saw that the time was five minutes to six. The clock was going, proof positive, everyone thought, that it was an old hotel time-piece and the ta|es of Moiong had roused it from its dreams. '
