The old gentleman used to play golf very seriously
indeed , toiled at his swing and read all the latest
books. But somehow he did not get on very well ;
he returned home at the end of the day tired and
dispirited and wondered dismally over his glass of
port after dinner what he had been doing wrong
and why he had not begun golf when he was
younger. And it was then that pepper , who had
been sternly turned back in the morning , when
greeting master`s grey coat with expectant barks ,
would look at him with sad , reproachful eyes. One
day he was taking pepper and the tennis ball out
for an airing in the park , when it suddenly
occurred to him that here was an opportunity for a
little practice . He looked round him with a stealthy
and shame faced air , there was no park keeper in
sight . , no one could see him. So , instead of
throwing pepper`s ball he drove it manfully with
his walking stick. And what an entrancing
sensation it was ! true , the ball did not fly high into
the air , but then neither , as a rule , did a golf ball
when he hit it , and , if it did , it flew in a malignant
curve to the right . this ball was nice and big , it
made a jolly noise , and he could hit it a plump and
honest blow . There were no slices , no bunkers , no grinning caddies , and pepper seemed to enjoy the
game more than ever .
That evening after dinner , when he sat in his
armchair with his handkerchief over his face and
pepper lay curled like a whiting in his basket , both
had the most delicious dreams of phantoms balls ,
and there was no bitter disillusion on waking . So
he gradually gave up the long , tiresome journey to
his golf club and only played in the park. As he has
now practically retired from business , pepper has
as many games he wants.
