FIRST GOLF LESSON:   The school teacher was taking her first golfing lesson.
      "Is the word spelled p-u-t or p-u-t-t?" she asked the instructor.  
      "P-u-t-t is correct," he replied.
      "Put means to place a thing where you want it.   Putt means merely a vain attempt to do the same thing."
