cessive playing. There is not poor
hole on the course. and while the par of
the course is too high, based on the new
figures of the United States Golf Asso-
citation. there are some very fine one
and two-shotters.
This is particularly true of the one
shot holes. notably the first. fourth,
seventh aLd fourteenth. The feature of
tho seventh and fourteenth is a ravine.
In the drst instance, II punisnys a
sliced shot while II forms the hazard be-
tween the tee and green on the four
teenth. This last hole, TO quote Fletcher,
is the best natural hole he has ever
seen--nearly 1000 holes, in all. The first
three are wood or long-iron shots. and
the fourteenth is a mashie.
Fine Two-Shot Holes
Many of the two-shotters are fine
holes, particularly the eleventh. where
traps are SO placed that the hole is
made a dog leg. and it requires a very
effective pitched shot TO the green.
Throughout the eighteen holes not one
of us had anything but a perfect brassie
lie, and the condition of the fairways
was magnificent.
Golfers who have not played al Sunny
brook have missed playing over one OF
the finest and best-llept links in this or

have missed something that they can

FRENCH PROUD or DOG HERO
Brave Deeds Of Artemis Have Won
Him Wide Renown Among the
FIGHTERS for LA Patrie"

There was foggy night once when
his acute hearing failed Artemis,. who
was doing guard duty out on No Mans
Land. Artemis, it must be explained,
is a popular hero Of France, dog Of
uncertain pedigree, with mixture of
the Great Dane in him and a touch Of
the French mountain sheep-dog. So
serious was the result Of this treach-
cry on the part Of his ears that Sec
tion of his regiment was cut off. Poor
Artemis! He had always been SO faith
full and had so often saved his friends.
But they trusted him still and, to
prove it, they dispatched him with
note attached to his collar warning
their comrades Of their danger. It was
q hot night on the line, and the bullets
were flying fast. ,Phut! phut! they fell
round the flying feet of Artemis, but
he paid no heed to them. His reputa-
ton was at stake, and he redeemed it.
He got through with his message. Aid
was sent to his squad. It arrived in
time. And there followed celebra-
ton in honor of Artemis, arranged by
the colonel himself.
The hero, however, was not yet sat-
isfied that his duty was done. At
Ypres he continued to act as courier
and patrol, and no accidents interfered
with his efficiency now. Finally came
day when the captain commanding
him found his own life threatened by
the attack of two Boches. None of his
men were near him. But Artemfs was.
The captain managed to kill one as
sailant. AS he did SO, the other cock
ed his rifle to shoot. Whereupon At
tennis, exerting all his strength, sprang
at the mans throat seized it so vicious
ly that he strangled him. The captain
was saved. So was ,Artemis; but both
went to the hospital.-Mrs. Elphin-
stone Maitland, in Peoples Home

RABBITS EARS NOT HANDLES
Belief That Seems Commonly Accept.
ed Is Incorrect, According to Writer
In Boy Scouts Magazine. =

Some people seem to think that be-
cause rabbits ears are so long 1t Is
q good reason to use them as handle,
says Harry Bradford in Boys Life, the
Boy Scouts magazine. They have
told me that 1.-THE mother rabbit car
ries her young around by the ears ~
Ihave had a prettyigood opportunity
to observe such feat, but have new
err seen such a performance. It -
all right to hold them by the ears, but
I always put my hand or arm under
their hind legs to lift them up, and
then I know am not hurting them.
One popularity I have always no.
ticed about rabbits Is their apparent
lack Of clear vision. If you will notice
their eyes, you will see that they
scarcely, if ever, move the eyeball to
look up or down or at either side, as
a cat does. You can't tell when they
are looking directly at you as you can
with cat.
If you throw a carrot to them, they
will not sight it and 60 directly to 1t,
but will smell about with nose to the
ground till they find 1t, and they may
20 six inches past it few times be-
fore they strike it! s
Put a rabbit on chair, table or box
and he will go carefully to the edge
leaning his head over and seemingly
wondering how far he Is from the
ground, whereas a cat would think
nothing of springing down from such 9
height. "
