FACE REAL TEST
IN LONG LAYOUT
Congressional, Though, May
Yield Scores Under 80
in Play Next Week.
BY w. r. McCALLUM.


THE women who will play tor
the District golf championship
next week have picked just
l. about the longest golf course
around Washington, but they will
score well ca 1t just the same.
When the women's title tourney is
played at the Congressional Country
Club next week you can look for a
card or two under the 80-mark de-
spite the fact that the layout stretches
to a distance around 6,400 yards from
the tees the women will use, based
on the cards turned in by the fair
golfers in the Middle Atlantic cham
piunship last october. when at least
two scores under 80 were returned.
Of course it's strictly out OF order
to pick any woman or any competitor
to win a championship before the
tournament starts, but Mrs. Betty P
Meckley of Indian Spring has the only
chance any Washington competitor
ever had to crash the inviolate trium-
yirate, as o. B. Keeler used to say.

Britain's Worst Storm

What is said to have been the
worst storm Great Britain ever ex-
.perienced occurred on November
9th, 1903, says a writer in Pear.
sons Weekly. 1t was attended by
flashes of lightning which unroofed
many houses and churches. The
wind blew down the spires of many
steeples, tore whole groves of trees
up by the roots, and the leads Of
some churches were rolled up like
scrolls of parchment. Many vessels
were sunk in the Thames; but the
royal navy, which had just re-
turned from the Mediterranean, suf.
fered the greatest damage and lost
over dozen ships. Over 1900 sea.
men were list beside those that
were drowned in London. The dam.
age was estimated at a million
pounds.

Termites Are Not Ants;
Related to Cockroaches

Termites are not white, but a
neutral grayish color. They are not
ants, but are related to cockroaches.
The relationship is fairly distant and
is based on anatomical resem-
blances. The termite is free from
the cockroach's filthy habits and
deplorable morals.
On the other hand, according to
DR.. Thomas M. Beck, in the Chicago
Tribune, the termite has evolved a
social organization quite similar to
that of ants. The colonies of most
species of termites are divided into
five castles which differ greatly from
each other in appearance. First
there are those of the winged type,
which periodically swarm out into
the open and fly away to establish
new colonies. These are the largest,
being about half inch long.
A second and larger group con-
sists of individuals with only rudi-
mentary wings, and then there is a
third group whose members are
wingless. Each of the three groups
consists of males and females and
apparently is capable of repro
ducing any or all of the five termite
types.
Finally there are the two most
numerous groups, the soldiers and
the workers, which are sexless. The
worker resembles one of the wing
less type mentioned above and does
most of the hard work around the
colony. Such being the case, he is
the one most responsible for the
damage done to buildings.

American Duels Set Pace
for Savagery, Writer Says

Dueling reached its most savage
lengths in America. One year after
the landing of the Pilgrims two of
them fought. During the Revolution
there were some notable duels. Gen.
Charles Lee and Col. John Laurens
fought, as did Generals Cadwalader
and Conway. Button Gwinnett,
signer Of the Declaration of indie
pendence, was killed in a duel with
General Mcintosh. Virginia and
Georgia were hotbeds of dueling,
writes Frederick T. Haslxins in the
Washington Star.
The duels of Hamilton and Burr
are history, as are those of General
jackson and Major Wilkinson,
Capts. Barron and Decatur, Henry
Clay and John Randolph of Roa-
noke. Richard Somers, an officer
of the Intrepid, is reputed to have
fought three duels in a single day
Not so much the number, but the
savagery of American duels set
them apart. There were duels in
which the adversaries stood with q
handkerchief on the ground between
them. The only possible chance OF
escape was the misfring of one OF
the pistols. A frequently used form
called for the duelists to stand back
to back. At word they would walk
six or dozen PAGES, as pre-
arranged, whirl and fire. Then there
were the fiendish knife duels, espe-
cially after James Bowie had in
vented the Bowie knife. The mer
fought in some cases with their lef,
wrists handcuffed to each other.
Often both duellists died. If one
survived he would have to be I'M
locked from the corpse of his op.
ponent.

Travel Through Treetops

The only people who do most oil
their travelling through the tops Of
trees are the Ilongots, a tribe Of
Luzon in the Philippines. With a
heavy knife they cut off the branch
of one tree, slide the loop end of a
50-foot rope over it, then cast and
catch the hook end of the rope over
a branch of an adjoining tree. And
with great agility, they travel
across it in monkey fashion.-Col-
lier's Weekly.
