Suburban Stake Win Held
Tonic Bethesda BoWIer'S
Game Needed.
BY FRANCIS E. STAN.

Y UNTIL three weeks ago what
scant notice was taken by
bowling minded Bethesda cit
liens of an angular, youthful
fellow townsman named Ray Parks was
to remark that he possessed a style
closely resembling that of Baltimore s
great Ray Barnes. But there the re-
semblance ended.
Today, in this year of dark horses,
the bustling little bowling hamlet of
Bethesda is the proud incubator of
its third major duckpin titleholder in
as many years, and he is the same Ray
Parks whose style resembled that of the
nationally known Barnes. And TO
bring to Bethesda its third consecutive
championship, Ray Parks had to roll
like Ray Barnes
Few figured Parks, who was averag-
ing only LOT in the Bethesda League, a
potential winner in the MaryIand-Vir-
ginia Suburban Sweepstakes. which
ended Saturday night with Parks the
victor, with score of 1901. There
were many bOWlers, among them Oscar
HLser, Charlie Watson, Jack Talbert
Sam Corcoran, Sam Benson. Oscar
Swain, Ollie Webb Perce Wolfe, Hugh
Waldrop Joe Pricci. Bob Temple, Ray
Huffman. Joe Freschi. Irving Bill
heimer and Thurston Furr, who car
ried averages of anywhere from 10 to
l3 points higher than Parks.
Lack of confidence, according to
friends of Parks was another factor
against the new suburban champion
For almost three years he was reluc-
tant to enter sweepstakes and COM
pete against expert bowlers. Then, three
weeks ago, he plunked down a $40
entry fee. Today he has S11270 in

TAKE DRIVE AWAY,
GAME IS JOYLESS
He's Told Newest Pill Will
Go as Far as Any and
Is Easier to Hit.
BY WALTER TRUMBULL.

HAVE not of late heard much
conversation concerning the
newest golf ball. There was
plenty of talk about the next
to the last model. George Dun
can, for example, was talking
about it when he landed on these
shores, and his conversation grew
steadily warmer on the subject
until he left for England. His
opinion of that enlarged and
lightened sphere never could have
been printed in a home paper. 1t
might have made Snappy reading
for some of the more modern
magazines.
Golf was a conservative exercise up
to the time that a gentleman in the
rubber business. whose name was Has
kell, decided that the old guilty ball
wouldn't travel far enough.
AS a result. he invented the rubber
cored ball-and with it most of the
troubles of players and golf architects.
But he certainly revolutionized golf. 1t
was like bringing an elephant home to
sleep in the stall which had been built
for Shetland pony.
Golf courses grew too small over
night. On the whole where man
had been proud to get home with
brassie, he now played beyond the
green with jigger. That dignifled old
warrior. Col. Bogie, became a joke
Thousands of dollars had to be spent
in constructing new courses. or adapt
ing old ones to new conditions.
DUT still they were not satisfied
ID They kept on making the ball
more and more lively. They dis
covered new cores. and how to wrap the
ball tighter. and all sorts of things

the green was beyond the limit of Wis

course with many. real three-shot
holes would have employed about as
much territory as the State of Texas
Something had to be done. 1t was
easier to attempt to bring things back
to normal by changing the golf ball
than by changing the golf courses. So
they adopted the larger. lighter ball
And did that solve the difficulty? 1t
did not The plaintive pipings of GER
tain professionals were heard on the
air but these were as nothing COM
pared to the roars of the angry duffer.
From every corner of the land came
yells Of rage and anguish.

when he found a pane Of glass out Of
a gable window he liked the looks Of
it still better inside.
I'll stay here awhile and look
around" said Monkey-face to himself.
There should be good hunting around
here when the snow goes unless 1t hap
pens that already there are too many
hunters. With Rats and Mice in this
barn and around other barns in the
neighborhood, with Meadow Mice in the
grass of the Green Meadows, the Old
Pasture and the Old Orchard and with
Wood Mice in the Green Forest, not to
mention an occasional careless bird by
way Of variety, there should be good
living hereabouts. I am sure Mrs.
Monkey-face would enjoy it. If only
can get her to come here and see for
herself! Monkey-face sighed. It
sounded like hiss, but it really was a
sigh.
The more he looked around, and he
did look around very thoroughly as
many of the smaller people of the
Green Meadows and the Green Forest
could tell you if they would, the more
decided he grew in favor of making his
home there. Finally early one evening
he headed straight for his old home
and Mrs. Monkey-face.

Monkey-face the Barn Owl had been
living south of where he now was. He
hadn't been living way down in the
Sunny South. Ne, it hadn't been as far
as that. It had been Just far enough
SO that in Winter there was seldom
snow, and when snow did fall it seldom
lasted long He had lived there all his
life and SO had Mrs. Monkey-face.
They had expected to live there always.
They were perfectly satisfied until they
gradually began to realize that there
were too many of their family living in
that neighborhood. 1t had gotten SO
that it required real hunting to get
enough food for themselves, not to
mention the babies that would come
along in the Spring.
High up in the belfry of a church
where they had long made their home
they had talked it all over night after
night Each night they hoped the
hunting would be better and each
night it seemed as if it were little
poorer. 1t was not that they were
starving. Goodness no! They were a
long way from that. They got enough
and they felt that they could continue
to get enough for themselves, but could
they get enough for big family? They
doubted it.
I'VE will have to move" declared
Monkey-face. I'VE will have to move
right out of this neighborhood into a
neighborhood where there are none of
our kind, but where there are plenty
of Mice
when you find such a neighborhood
Just let me knew and l will be ready to
move there. Meanwhile I think I will
let well enough alone and remain right
here where I know everybody and
where the best hunting grounds are"
declared Mrs. Monkey-face.
When Monkey-face did finally start
out to look for a new home he did not
do it deliberately In his nightly hunt
for food he had extended his range
farther and farther. He had done this
in all directions, but especially toward
the north. One night he went in this
direction farther than he ever had been
before and morning found him farther
from home than he cared to fly in day
light. He spent that day in an old
barn. When evening came and he
started hunting be drifted still farther
in that direction, and because he found
plenty of Mice decided to stay there

or hot milk drink to make the sand
wlches "go down" like magic instead
of like leaden Jumps! To this day you
remember the cold luncheon sensation?
Modern children, of course, are far
more fortunate than were those of 10
or Is years ago. There are school
cafeterias. There they may obtain hot
foods for a small sum. But for the
greater number of families who can
not afford this luxury, there are the
vacuum bottles so reasonable in price
that even the poorest families can al
ford them and thus provide hot drinks
and nourishing soups for the children
at an insignificant cost.
And what goes into those containers?
Oh, many, many delicious, wholesome
things that are no trouble at all to
make. Easiest, perhaps, are the hot
milk drinks such as cocoa, chocolate
and the cereal beverages, all of which
should have their measure of sweeten-
ing to make them more palatable and
add to the food value. These drinks
can be made in a jiffy-So there is not
the excuse of extra labor.
Every one knows how to make in
slant cocoa or chocolate, using a foun-
dation of rich milk The manner of
making the cereal beverage is practi-
cally the same-perhapS even easier,
since you need only place level tea
spoonful of the cereal preparation in
a tea cup, heat full milk to the boil
ing point (but do not boil IT., then
pour the milk into the cup, add little
sugar to taste and stir briskly until
the cereal powder is dissolved How
good crisp graham crackers are with
these hot drinks which provide an ad-
mirable way to serve the childs quota
of milk at noon, and give him the
threefold advantage of the nourish-
ing milk, the warmth to stimulate di-
gestion and circulation and the bit of
sugar for energy!
The same purpose is served by hot
soup, preferably a cream soup to make
use of the prescribed portion of milk.
With either beverage or soup there
should be sandwiches of whole wheat
bread and butter and simple spread !;
custard or favored gelatin in a cup
will furnish a good dessert, and it is
nice to include an apple. There is a

The nuthatch has a bill especially
fitted for his profession of digging the

their warm beds more quickly than any

methods. His beak is like chiSel and

with grub in it. After his meal he
uses the branch of a tree for a napkin
and wipes and wipes every bit of food

If no home is handy they use their

cradle are placed from five to nine

speckled, making rare find. In a
