He hardly needed her permission.
A second later a slight snore in
formed her that Lieut.. Leigh was on
in dreamland~
She smiled to herself and went
on with her story. Diana had never
had any illusions about men. She
didn't resent her young husbands
indifference to her presence. though
she had to admit to herself that 1t
was the first time she had failed
to prove q stimulating companion to
any man with whom she was en-
gagged in q tete-a-tete.
Finally the book palled. and she
tossed 1t aside and stared out of
the window into the darkness through
which the Limited was tearing. The
Eastern horizon was becoming light.
presaging the rising Of the moon.
and the air that came through, the
screened window Of the compartment
was warm and fragrant with the
breath Of summer.
It was stuffy in the train. She
tried to raise the window higher.
but 1t would 60 no further.
Then she remembereds the obser-
walton platform.
She looked at Alex irresolutely. ~
He was spread in ungainly fashion
across the couch. his head tilted back
and his mouth frankly open.
She would be thankful to get away
from that insistent snore.
Opening the door softly 50 that
she did not disturb him. she slipped
into the corridor and traversed three
cars to the observation platform. -.
Heads turned lazily to follow her
progress. One young man. after a
moments hesitation. rose and fol-
lowed her.to the smiling amusement
and covert winks. Of two travelling
statesmen playing cards with half
hearted interest.
There was no one on the platform
when Diana emerged from the OBJ
servation car. and she breathed
sigh of relief.
She particularly abominated the
type Of traveller who considers rail-
road train sufficient introduction for
one to tell the story Of her life and
that Of several distant relatives in
the bargain.
But she had hardly seated herself
in the pleasing shadow where the
warm rush of the night wind could
sweep over her face and lift the
strands Of her hair than the screen
behind her opened and tall figure
stepped forth.
Mr.. Lynn Johnston.
She did not turn her head. but
she could feel the scrutiny OF eyes.

College by '32 10 10. The midshipmen
had a slight advantage in each half on
account OF speed and team play. In
dividually the work OF the two flves was
Of the closest kind. and both played the
same sort OF game. 1t was the fifth
game for the midshipmen this season and
the fifth victory
Union took the lead at the start with
three points on a foul goal and field
goal. both thrown by Brucher. The
Navy leads caught UP before the middle
point of the period, and with Ault and
Mckee doing most Of the scoring won 4
comfortable margin. the half ending Al
iS to 8. The play was much closer IN
the second half. the Nays advantage
being largely on a larger number OF
chances from the foul line. Ault. Nc
Kee and Byerlv were the big scorers for
the Navy. while Brucher was easily the
star for Union. shooting finely from the
field and foul line and playing a great
defensive game. The lineup:

With the idea OF saving golf and
country clubs considerable money in
their course upkeep. the United States
Golf Association has created q green
section. TO be conducted by the green
committee of the national body. Through
lack OF knowledge many thousands of
dollars are wasted each year by clubs
especially new ones, in trying TO estab-
lish good turf. Now the plan is TO have
organizations profit by the experiences
of others by utilizing knowledge gained
through mistakes and experiments.
IL is believed that this green commit
tee by means of timely letters or n
regularly published Journal. will provide
information OF great value regarding
the supplies of seeds. the qualities and
use OF fertilizers soil preparation and
scientific matters. besides providing the
means by which any club desiring in
formation on the subject may avoid
waste and useless expense.
The u. S. @. A. has secured assurance
Of full assistance from practically all
scientists who are actively investigating
the various factors that determine
quality In turf. Among these are Messrs,
Piper, Oakley, Hillman, Walton and

are with the United states Department

lively the chairmanship and vice-chair-
