HAAS captured his second conSecu-
tive Western junior title by virtue
of his uncanny ability with his irons.
His Detroit opponent matched him
of the tees but could not cope with
his iron play. In the final match he
missed only one green out of 80 holes
and majority of his shots were
within 10 feet of the pin. He missed
an ace on the 2l0-yard ninth when
his tee shot hit the pin and rolled
away few inches.
Haas went out in 36 on the morn
ing round to gain a 2-up advantage.
Burkemo kept within striking distance
on the home nine but the champion
birdied the long eighteenth and went
to lunch with a four-hole lead. Bur-
keno hung on his trail in the after
noon and they played on even terms
until Haas nearly scored his ace to
go five up at the turn. He won the
next two holes with a par and birdie,
respectively, and ended the match
when Burkemo narrowly missed a
putt on the twelfth.

PETER SAVES A FRIEND

DEFER RABBIT sat in thicket of young trees on the edge of the Green Forest. So far as he knew he was all alone. It was very quiet there and 1t wasn't long before he was dozing. Now, Peter Is a light sleeper, as all little people who never know when they may have to run for their lives must be. By and by he awoke with a start, and he was very wide awake, indeed. Something had wakened him, but just what 1t was he couldn't say.
 For few minutes he heard noth- Ing and saw nothing. Then, near the other edge of the thicket, he heard a great rustllng of dry leaves. For just an instant Peter was startled, but only for an instant. His long ears told him at once that that noise was made by some one scratching among the leaves, and he knew that no one who did not wear feathers could scratch like that.
 "Now, who can that beT thought Peter, and stole forward very soft ly. Presently he saw the brown leaves which carpeted the ground fly this way and that, and in the midst of them was an exceedingly

THROUGH A .msnss Eyes
WHEN PEOPLE PRAY
By JEAN NEWTON

A NEWS dispatch from Moscow 4 \ says that drouth has turned the thoughts of Russian peasants to re- ligion.
 In the rich black earth district of central Russia, drouth comparable to that which turned parts of our own country into desert has threat ened the crops and therefore the lives of the people. And as things get worse it seems they are begin ming to pray.
 That the people who outlawed re ligion and denied God should turn to him when they are parched for rain is not so unusual It Is a com. mon resource of human nature when Tn trouble to turn to prayer. And this is true not only of those with whom prayer, in humility and faith, Is part of life. It Is true of maay who have never prayed that, when dire need or stark terror grips them, out of the innermost re- cesses of the soul of the man or woman comes that bond wiEh It's maker that is like the cry of child for Its mother. When all else falls them, they pray.
 I once heard man boast that only twice in his life had he prayed: once when his dearly loved young wife was being carried, at deaths door, into the operating room, and again when he himself was suffering intolerably agonizing pain! It seems to me the joke was on him. 9.

made for scratching and he certain ly knew how to use them. For some time Peter sat there watch ing. Just as he had about made up his mind to make his presence known and have a bit of morning gossip, he happened to look out be- yond the edge of the little thicket. There he saw something red. It was something alive, for 1t was moving very slowly and cautiously toward the place where Chewink was scratching, forgetful of every thing but his breakfast. It was Reddy Fox, and quite plainly Reddy was hoping to catch Chewink.
 Suddenly Peter thumped the ground with his feet. It was his danger signal which all his friends know. Then he turned and scam pered, lipperty-lipperty-lip, to a bramble-t tangle not far behind him. At that thump Chewink instantly flew up in little tree. Then he saw Reddy Fox and began to scold. As for Reddy, he looked over to- ward the bramble-tangle and snarled
 "I'll get you one of these days, Peter Rabbit" said he "I'll get you one of these days and pay up for cheating me out of breakfast" Without as much as a glance at Che wink, Reddy turned and trotted off, trying to look as if he had never entertained such thought as try. ing to catch Chewink.

IN MEMORY OF
 A BABY
By ANNE CAMPBELL

I DO not know why angel wings Should f1utter near me In the
 night; Then swinging, as starling swings, Desert me for eternal flight. do not know why baby hands Should cling one moment to my
 own. Then reach for the celestial lands, And leave me weeping all alone. Perhaps by heavens outer gate There is tiny sentinel, Who waits, as I have learned to
 walt, To hear the tolling of bell. I longed to keep little soul From this worlds sadness unde-
 filed, And weep that by the starry goal, Stainless, there waits little child.
