On account of Russell Kerr had
to stay home, his match was
slightly broken up and so Millie,
the Marathoner thought he would
get another partner not quite so
good. But Bob Spottswood was on
the opposing side and was very
glad when Milligan said he would
take Pete Taylor and play the
match. In the meantime Del
Woods had gotten cold feet and
withdrew but Old Bye Duke of
Rock Sound who is afraid of no
man nor beast said he would take
Dels part with Bob. After many
dissertations and many golf shots
it was found that Bob with 38-40

Mr.. Charlie Ketchum and Mr..
Otto Kirchheiner thought they
were going to have a pushover in
the size and shape of Tim Pitt
mans legs and Cookie Mesa's golf
stance but those gentlemen were
very much mistaken in legs and
stance on account of Tim and
Cookie taking the match by some

pain to the pocketbooks. of Otto
and Charlie. But of course they
soliloquized about the matter and
said that a fellow could not win all

give them greater pleasure than
to see Cookie and Timotheus eat

The greatest surprise to all was
that Tim played the best game

Mr.. Kirchheiner put in the pre-

over each play in his mind as to
how he would make those shots
count. Somebody in the back of
the room remarked that Mr..
Kirchheiner found it much easier
to play golf on the course than in
his mind since there weren't so
many blank spaces on the golf

gladly play if Mr.. Woods would
give a few strokes as present to

partner of Ii. After the first
round it was found Melvin could
pass out strokes to everybody and
so Mr.. Wods asked to be relieved
of his stroke-giving burden. Being
good sports, Ii and Melvin readily
agreed to that but Mr.. Woods
then proceeds to knock the ball
into the can in fewer strokes than
ever. Near the last of the match
Lii and Melvin were still two up
until Handsome made a neat par
on the 18th hole which caused sor-
row to Ii and Melvin because on
the last hole Mr.. Woods got low

Mr.. Ii and NJ. Melvin will have

so. 1t cannot be so. For if every

was confiscated, it would pay to run

Various Animals Can Use
Tails to Good AGven:a

Tails of some animals are not
always the useless appendages they
seem at a casual glance. Nor are
they merely ornamental. Take, for
instance, the lovely ''brush" Of the
squirrel. Apart from the charm
it imparts to its wearer, the
squirrels tail can be converted in
to a very useful weapon.
When chased by some predatory
animal and finding itself hard
pressed, the squirrel will often
make good his escape by stufing
he bushy tail in the eyes of the
.oes, and thus causing him to pause
for a moment. When the pursuer
can see clearly again the SQUIRE
is out of his reach. The squirrel

writer in the Montreal Herald, is

enemy is sighted the loud sound OF
the flat tail smacking the surface
of the water is a warning to every
beaver to scamper into the Fivei
and dive for safety.
The kangaroo's thick and heavy
tail makes fine seat. When he
wishes to rest it makes a tripod

One of the loveliest tails in the
animal kingdom belongs to the AM
