W. By WRMeC CALluM ~

A COMPLETE new nine-hole
~ layout and a rearrangement
~ Of the old course to furnish
81 holes Of golf for members of
the club is in prospect at the Army
Navy Country Club for 1887.
Out there in the hills of Arlington
County, hard by the wireless towers
where the Navy keeps in touch with
its far-fiung battle line, Herbert
Strong has laid out golf course that
looks like the answer to a golfers
dream--nine completely new holes
north of the clubhouse and an ar
rangement Of the old course by which
only the tenth and eleventh greens
of the original layout ultimately will
be used.
Most Of the new course will be
In use next year, but it's rather
shame that the old third hole,
one Of the best drive and pitch
affairs around Washington, will
be abandoned in the new plan.
That hole and the entire first nine
will 60 out Of use in the new scheme
of things at the service club, where
the course built back in 1927 by Maj.
Richard Newman has been in con-
slant and heavy use.
CTRONG has used some rugged ter
rain to construct what looks like
a darned good golf course over there
in the Virginia hills. Cut up with
hills and valleys, with streams wind
ing through the country. the ground
itself is good stuff for golf construction

p. G. A. Is Receptive.

1FF1CEhS OF tne PROFESSIONAL
Golfers Association Of America
are inclined to look favorably on the
proposition, pointing out that in 1885
the Canadian pros beat the British
Ryder Cup team In Toronto by prac-
tically the same score as that by
which the Britishers were licked by
the United States Ryder Cup team.
Lawson Little, jr., the reigning Ca
madam open champ, probably won't
be eligible to play for the United
States If the proposed match comes
of in 1887. Under the rules of the
P. G. A.. Lawson isn't entitled to
play in the p. G. A. championship or
to represent the United States on
Ryder Cup team. and to be consistent
they couldn't permit the Canadian
open champ to play marbles with the
boys. Lawson is a pro, but he isn't
yet a member Of the P. G. A.

SEEKING CONTEST
L|KERYDERPARTY
Event Would Take Place as
Feature of Exposition
at Toronto.
BY w. r. McCALLUM.

)ANADIAN professional golfers
are buzzing with the bee Of
conquest over their brother
pros from the United States.
Even though they haven't been able
to do much about the winning Of their
own open championship whenever
considerable United States group went
after it they think they would have q
good chance to lick q pro team from
the United States and they intend
this Winter to challenge the United
States pros to a team match similar
to the Ryder Cup contests.
The challenge will be issued
through George Cummings of the To-
ronto Golf Club and B. L. Anderson,
secretary Of the Royal Canadian Golf
Association, and will be aimed at a
match to be played In Toronto dur
ing the Canadian exhibition next year.

Give sister q oor
Who con Staoo punishment

Broadly speaking, the toy dog is
no pet for q child. It's too small to
stand a lot Of hauling around. This
delicacy plus a natural nervousness
often results in nipped finger or
two. Somebody's liable to get hurt.
Self-defense is q natural measure in
all creatures. Small dogs have rea-
son to be on edge. Their size makes
them open to all kinds of punishment.
Children are seldom maliciously
cruel. They just don't think. When
dog is given to them as O pet 1t
should be one that can stand q lot.
Toy dogs don't answer that descrip-
tion. Even hardy dog must have
adult supervision. To give q dog to
child and not see that it Is well
treated is rank cruelty on the part of
the grown-up in charge of the situa-
ton. Give Junior strong, good sized
pup, preferably one that he won't lift.
Just in case he might, show him how
to do it properly.
Dogs must never be picked up by
their front paws. To do so may cause
real damage as well as pain at the
moment of action. The next time
the offender approaches the pup he'll
probably hide under the couch and
pretend that he's not at home. Lift
Pups up bodily or put one hand under
his chest just below the elbows and
grasp theotail with the other.

Child's Diet
Tactfully
Pampering Should Be
Avoided From
First.
BY ANGELO PATRI.

IT CANNOT get my 4-year-old boy
= to eat his meals. He refuses every
thing I offer him. I've tried letting
him go hungry, but he would starve
himself if I let him. I can't let him
starve. I can't go on as things are,
for he is making me nervous wreck.
What can do?"
First: Is this child normal? If he
is dull, or feeble-minded, or sick, he
must have the best care a skilled
physician can give him. No ordinary
measures will do for him.
If he is pronounced fit in mind and
body we can know that he has been
trained in poor habits. He has learned
to use his eating habits as a weapon
against those who control him. He
found he could make his family dance
to his music any time just by refusing
to eat his meals. He can enjoy
himself by the hour and that without
cost to him.
Mothers are so anxious about the
health of their children that any lack
of appetite arouses their fears Chill
dren are quick to feel the fears Of
those about them and to profit by
them. Because eating is one of their
earliest experiences and the one that
first arouses motherly interest, eating
lends itself to this unfortunate situ-
alton most frequently.
Prevention is the best cure. Every
mother should be on guard against
the first intrusion of the idea that
eating is a favor to her Eating Is a
personal matter and helps the eater,
not any one else. II the mother can
make herself free Of the feeling OF
anxiety about the child's eating and
assume, outwardly at least, the atti-
tude of indifference, the difficulty is
not likely to have the proportions Of
problem. Take 1t or leave it," Is the
best attitude.
When a child who is in good health
refuses food accept his refusal good
humoredly, eat your own meal with
apparent relish, no remarks either
way, and serve him nothing until next
meal. Then make no mention Of the
previous refusal. Ignore it. If the
child fasts for hours, even for day,
it won't hurt him any. Emotional
fussing over his fasting will harm him
far more Just cook something that
smells very good, something everybody
likes. Serve it without comment, with
out so much as an understanding
glance, and he will eat it nine times
out of 10. Only be sure that you make
no sign of courting a victory. Don't
arouse his pride. Make the whole
affair as impersonal as possible and
after it is over ignore it.
Ailing children should not be fed
the usual menu, but aslight diet. The
doctor should be called in If there is
any sign of sickness, rise in tempera-
ture, complaint of pain. Fasting
will be an aid to a sick child when
eating a good meal will hinder his
recovery. But this is situation for
the physician.
Mentally defective children do not
eat as other children eat. Their diet
must be supervised by the specialist.
Their daily program of health habits.
school routine, sleep. rest, play, reme-
dial work--all must be carefully ad-
justed to the dull child's needs.
As for healthy. intelligent children,
they will eat when they are hungry.

Life in Strange City.

and ask her to give you credentials
so that you may join similar Or
ganization in the city to which you
have moved and which is to be your
home. That is one way of getting
in with the kind of people you would
like to know.
A MOTHER way is to join whatever
= church you belonged to at home.
AS long as you just drop into church
for service as any passing stranger
might do, you will have no chance Of
making contact with the members.
But if you unite with a church you
become one of the body, and If you
show a disposition to take an active
part in church work you will have no
difhculty in making desirable ac-
quaintances. Every church in these
days has young peoples societies and
makes a great effort to draw such
people as you and your husband into
its fold.
Don't feel hurt and offended be-
cause your husbands business asso-
ciates have not brought their wives
to call on you. It is only in small
communities that that pleasant Gus
tom prevails. In large cities and in
big organizations men keep their
business and social lives apart so that
the wives of even men who are friends

he would like it-there was the ques-
ton Of it being too warm, even though
We put him in the coolest spot we
could finland whether he would like
sleeping on newspaper instead of hay.
He did fuss at first, until we let him
have his run around the living room,
where he jumped up on sofas and
chairs and even on the tables to look
the situation over. Then when he was
tired he got in my lap and went to
sleep. We put him in his bed and
heard no more of him until he started
banging his hind feet on the floor for
breakfast in the morning.
I don't believe I have ever seen q
rabbit so completely tame and at ease
with human beings. I suppose it is
because he has never been frightened
once in his whole life. But he is thor.
oughly at home with all of us, and fol-
lows every one about just like puppy
If given the opportunity. He has both
charm and personality-and it gives
me little thrill to see how trusting
and unafraid an animal that is essen
TALLY wild may be made by the proper
environment.
A ND now-briefly, news of your old
friends:
Mr.. and Mrs. Swiftly are living
happily in Danvers, Mass, surrounded
by many more little families, and evi.
IDENTIFY getting along splendidly. Mrs.
Swiftly. gather, has gotten bit dis
agreeable in her old age-she shows q
tendency to nip Mr.. Swiftly or the
babies on slight provocation. Perhaps
the vicissitudes of her career, and
many journeys, have tended to sour
her sweet nature.
Flopsy is living in luxury at the Zoo,
looking very handsome, and has be-
come very cosmopolitan in her friend
ships. She has come to know con-
genial acquaintance from many quar-
ters of the globe, and, I am sure, If
she ever returned to our humble home,
would be insufferably snobbish.
The Tiptoes family of squirrels
seems to have disappeared. Whether
Mr.. Tiptoes beat the lady once too
often, don't know, but in any event,
the menage has broken up and both
parties have shaken the dust of our
domain from their paws. There is one
squirrel that scolds at the top of his
lungs all day-the children call him
the "One Man Gang"-but he hasn't
really become intimate with us as yet.
So the field is left to Mr.. Skip-it
and the two canaries. Hansi and
Sunny Jim. These last two don't con-
tribute much beyond a lot of noise.
They are terribly self-suffcient and
don't say thank you" for anything.
Feed, water, clean cages and baths
that's all they want. And then please
leave them alone. They have impor-
tant matters to sing about and don't
care to be interrupted.
But just 60 out in the yard to Skip
it! And rush Of gray fur leaps
against the wires, then out into your
arms, and an ecstatic little heart
thumps with the joy of seeing a pal!
Evening star., 1936-11-14


So hand-brought-up and civilized is
skip-it that q dog holds no fear for
him. The Scottie may curse and
rave, he may leap about in frenzied
hops, and hurl himself against the
wires OF the run-Skip-it, apparently,
thinks 1t is all a show just put on to
amuse him. The Scottie, I gather,
thinks Skip-it is definitely queer.
After one of these synthetic attacks,
he suddenly quails before the aloof
and unwnking gaze of Skip-it's large
and beautiful eyes, and runs, tail
tucked, for home. There, I presume.
he sneaks under the bed, to quiet his
nerves and try to figure out rabbit
that looks at him like Sphinx.
THE bunny himself loves human
companionship-what is more, he
loves to ride. On sunny afternoons he
may be observed, looking SNUG and
superior, riding in the back of one of
the children's express wagons, warmly
surrounded by leaves. He will sit in
the wagon without moving-only wob-
bling his nose with pleasure-until
the youngsters tire of the game and
dump him back into his run again.
Taking pity on him one day, when
he was gazing wistfully through the
wire meshes. decided to take him out
IN the car to pick up his owner at
school. Not being sure how he would
like the experience, I was not without
slight apprehension. But there was
nothing to worry about with Skip-it!
He simply jumped up on the top of the
back seat, where he could look out of
the rear window, and proceeded to
upset trafic by wiggling his ears and
whiskers at every car that came along
behind US. He was charmed when we
arrived at the school, and every one
made fuss over him-and rode back
to the house the same way he had
ridden out. Since then I. have taken
him often for rides, and he enjoys his
outing immensely. The only thing he
does not like is to be put where he
can't see out.
ON HALLOWEEN night I practiced
what preached and brought him
indoors. We weren't at all sure how

BY EMILY POST.

DEAR MRS. POST: Will you please
- tell us your opinion of the fol-
lowing: A couple who were about to
celebrate their wedding anniversary
invited nine couples to celebrate the
evening with them at very de luxe
supper club. 1t was to be a Dutch
treat party, each man paying his and
his own wife's bill. All nine couples
asked felt that the expense would be
much too much, but not one felt
that they dare say anything, and con-
sequently all had to scrimp the fol-
hole eaten in the budgets. Personally,
did not feel that the wedding cou-
pie should have named a definite
restaurant unless they we're paying
for every one, but instead should have
asked others first where they would
like to go. My husband disagrees and
says it was right for them to name
the place they preferred, under the
circumstances, and that the invited
couples were at fault in not being per-
fectly frank. VIII you please explain
how such pay-your-own-way parties
are usually arranged?
Answer-There are several angles To
this whole question. First Of all, the
rule of pay party is that every one
is free to say "no"-particularly if
the party suggested is thought too ex-
pensive. In the second place, pay
parties should not be given by those
celebrating their own anniversary.
This is almost as improper as though
a bride were to invite others to give
her a shower. In other words, some
one else should have suggested the
party for those whose anniversary it
was. In this case their bill should
have been divided among the other
nine. Or else the party should have
been given by the couple celebrating
their anniversary and the whole bill
for 1t paid by them. Or else nothing
should have been said about its being
an anniversary.
DEAR MRS. POST: Mr.. and Mrs.
Smith are much better OF finan-
cially than we are, but it seems that
we have the car. Sometime ago. when
the four of us were out driving, my
husband suggested stopping at
roadside restaurant to get something
to eat. Mrs. Smith was not hungry
and ate nothing; Mr.. Smith merely
had glass of beer. When the check
was brought my husband took it.
Mrs. Smith, however, made the worst
fuss imaginable and insisted that her
husband give my husband the money
for his beer. I think this was being
penny rude and that either her hus-
band should have taken the whole
check or she should have said noth-
ing about such a slight amount. viii
you tell me who pays such checks?
They were our guests and we had
suggested stopping OF, but since the
four Of us 60 out often in our car
don't you think they should some.
times take the check or at least sug.
gest occasionally that we stop some-
where for something to eat?
Answer-I agree entirely with you
about each Of the points that you
have made. never heard the phrase
penny rude" before, but I think 1t
exactly explains the real lack Of gen.
erosity beneath the pretense of fair.
ness Of many Mrs. Smiths.

TIME world is full of toy dogs.
For every breed Of pup there
are two conflicting stories as
to its origin. Often the tales
are unlimited. The main point Is
that the little canine is here. They
are pets. nothing more or less. No one
expects them to catch rats, hunt
game or herd cattle. Being beautiful
is their one duty. OF course, people
vary In their opinions on the subject.
Just look at the neckties walking down
the street,
It would be very difncult to say
which breed Of dog is the oldest. ANY
statement that is made could be
proven wrong. Socrates mentioned
the Maltese in 800 B. c. The little
Pomeranian can trace his lineage back
to early civilization on the shores of the
Baltic Sea. When old China opened
her doors to the occidental world, the
Peke had been going on for q long
time. So had the Chow Chow, but in
a different way. China raised the
Chow Chow for food. CThat has
nothing to do with our present hot

My husband Is very reserved type
of man who does not make friends
easily. He works for a large business
corporation and has many associates
whom he likes very much and who
like him in return. Most Of these
men are married. yet none Of them

so I have had no opportunity to make
any social contacts in that way. We
have been to church several times,
but we 60 and leave and have met no

society is getting under our skins. I
