1t is much better to use a tree of
medium height; bushy type of tree
with the low, or bungalow types. On
the other hand, tall trees 60 we'll
with two or three storied houses.
2. For a particular situation it is
well to consider whether or not the
situation is dry or moist, the soil
sand, gravel or clay; the site exposed
or protected and other such factors
as traffic and soil area. Many of our
trees will grow under wide range
of soil and moisture conditions, but
all Of them will give better results if
put in favorable situation-that is
into conditions to which they are &C
customed.
3. Other things being equal one
should choose those trees which are
most immune to attacks by the Japa-
nese beetles. These voracious pests
are already working in the outlying
sections of the city and it is we'll to
plant trees and flowers that do not
appeal to their appetites.
Other factors to be considered are:
The immunity of the tree to nu-
merous insects and diseases; the ef-
feet it will have on the grass; its
longevity; whether or not 1t will lit
ter up the lawn and the length of
time before it will give shade.
Your Tree May Be
Lifetime Investment.
These suggestions sound as though
buying a tree were something more
than phoning for a tree from the
nearest nurseryman, and so it is!
When you buy car you think about
the size, the power and speed, the
gas mileage, etc. A tree will last
much longer than an auto. so why
not buy quite as intelligently? Get
the kind of tree that you want but
also one that will thrive and give
pleasure. Actually a tree that is
thrifty and strong is less subject TO
insects and diseases than is one that
is starved or struggling under con-
ditions to which it is not adapted. 1t
sounds far-fetched I'll admit, to say
that bugs and diseases will pass up
a tree because it is vigorous and
healthy. but just allow me to illus
trate. The flat-headed apple borer
will only attack a dogwood while it
is in a weakened condition such as
exists following tranSplanting
Most people plant trees in their
lawns, and SO it is we'll to avoid those
kinds that are so shallow-rooted that
it is next to impossible to grow grass
beneath them. The naples and
American elm are notoriously bad In
this respect. The short lived trees
include the poplar, soft maple, spruce
and willow. Some trees make rapid
growth, a prime factor in the case of
most home owners who want to
achieve an immediate effect. The
Siberian elm is a so-called "fast
grower" Other relatively fast-grow~
ing trees are the sweetgum, tulip

Soil Preparation

One way Of insuring success with
fall paintings is to prepare the soil
now. This is especially true for
lilies, peonies and shrubs. The
soil can be deeply worked and the
necessary humus and plant food in
corporated. The beds will then have
time to settle before the planting
operation begins.

game is basically solid. Every shot
is played Clearly and crisply. She
has no swinging weakness, and is
one of the longest hitters among
women golfers.
Experts see real golfng future
for Betty. She plays the game seri-
ously, and is out to win whenever
she enters a tournament.
Though she isn't an overnight SEN
sation, Betty did get an early start.
That's why, at the age of 20, she
managed to annex the women's I'll
tie. She won the Texas municipal
championship when she was IL
years old, the state women's crown
at Is, and the Southern at Is. Since
that time she has been a major con-
tender in numerous other sectional
tournaments.
Much of her success is due to Tod
Menefee, pro at the San Antonio
Country club, who served as her
instructor. Last winter she took les
sons from Tommy Armour at Boca
Ration, Fla.
One of the most deliberate play
ers in the game, she takes plenty
of time to survey her lie and to hit
the ball. Before putting she seems
to memorize each blade of inter-
vening grass.
Though she insists she can't putt,
she holed out a 28-footer for a win
ming birdie on the thirtieth green,
and banged in 15-footer for a bird
lie to halve the thirty-first in the
National Women's tournament.
Miss Jameson is the fourth new
champion in four years. Mrs. Glen
ma COllet Vare's victory in 1885, her
sixth, marked the end of the old
order. Since that time the title has
been held by Pam Barton of Eng
land, 19 years old when she won it /;
by Mrs. Estelle Lawson Page of
Chapel Hill, N. c., newcomer; by
Miss Patty Berg of Minneapolis,
who, even in her early teens, was
acknowledged to be one of the best
women golfers in America, and who
was unable to defend her title this
year because of illness, and now by
Miss Jameson.
Winning this tournament may be
of inestimable value to the girls
game. 1t will give her confidence,
and will help end a tendency to
tighten up at crucial stages, one of
her difficulties for the past two years
of competition.
1t looked for a while as if Betty's
tenseness might cost her the tourna-
ment. She had been 4 up at the
end of the first IL holes, marking
down sparkling 49, She looked
like an easy winner then, but tight
ened up to such an extent that she
couldn't get her tee shots, and some
of her approaches, working normal
ly. Miss Kirby almost caught UP to
her, winning three holes back on the
first six of the outgoing round.
Her game came back, however.
She won the twenty-seventh by soar
ing two beautiful wood shots to the
green. She played for pars and got
halves on the twenty eighth and
twenty-ninth, and won the thirtieth.
The competitive temperament will
come to her, and that's all she needs.
The eyes of Texas can well rest
upon Miss Betty Jameson-a real
champion.

Strange Facts

Like water, the pressure of air
increases with depth. For in
stance, if a mine shaft were 35
miles deep, the air at the bottom
would be about 1000 times as
dense as that at the earth's sur
face, or heavy enough to float sew

In northern Ireland it is a seri-
Gus offense, punishable by a fine,
to wear or carry an Easter lily

Charles Drake, assistant to P. K.
Wrigley, owner of the Chicago Ma
tional league ball team, gives this
account of the manner in which the
team became known as the Cubs.
The National league was formed
in 1876. Through 1877 to 1897 the
Chicago entry was managed by Ad-
rian c. Arson, and called Anson's
Colts. Subsequently the team had
such nicknames as Rainmakers,
Cowboys, Bronco Busters and Or
phans.
In 1901 the late Fred Hayner,
sports editor of the Chicago Daily
News, used the term Cubs when re-
ferring to the club. But from 1902
through 1906 the team, by ma
jority of fans, was called Colts. But
by 1907 the name Cubs had caught
on and the club was universally
known by that name, with none 9TH
er subsequently used.
According to Drake there is no
record of how or why Hayner hap
pened to use the term Cubs.

Corner Effects in Modern Decoration
By BETTY WELLS

Brighten your corners-that's a
decorative must in this day of small
homes when every inch of space has
to count. Especially since corners
can contribute striking individuality
to the picture.
One solution of the corner prob
lem is the trend toward rounded cor
nerS observed in recently exhibited
model rooms. Sometimes this is
done by drapery around the entire
wall of the room, making a circle
or oval out of the room instead of
the usual rectangular or square.
Again, false wall is built around
the corner and papered or painted
to match the rest of the wall, again
creating the effect of an oval-shaped
room. But either way, this will in
volve expert carpentry, my gay
bird.
Another corner treatment is to pa
per colonnades In the corner, using
a stripe or vertically figured de-
sign that can be cleverly arranged

turai interest In the corner. Oftimes

hard blocker and a good leader.
While in high school he won six let
tiers in football, basketball and
track. He was aIl-state in football
and basketball.
Selecting one outstanding player
for the 1899 Notre Dame football
squad is an almost impossible job.
But close observers are handing the
palm to Steve, rare player whose
football prOwess is equalled by his
classroom skill.
Steve's debut with Notre Danes
No. l squad was made in the Kan
sas opener last year. He turned in
a nifty exhibition of crisp downfield
blocking, caught four punts and re-
turned them for total of so yards,
dragging them in on the fly under a
full head of steam. He ran the team
intelligently, marching the varsity

By his rise at Notre Dame, Steve
is repaying touching family debt.

Butler, left school to work so that
Steve might have chance to go to

Desserts That Are
Different

Build up your menu to an inter-
esting climax with a new and de-
licious dessert!
Desserts really play an important
part in the menu, and in nutrition,
too.
Sweets, provided in proper
amounts and in the proper place in
the diet, are just as necessary to
good nutrition as milk, meat, fruits,
vegetables and cereals.
Plan the dessert to fit the menu-a
light sweet for the close of a hearty
dinner, and a richer, heavier des-
sert to wind up the meal that is
fairly simple. Consider the weather,
too, and when it's hot and humid,
serve sweets that are temptingly
dainty. When the temperature drops
and appetites perk up accordingly,
desserts may be sweeter, richer and
more substantial.
You'll find in this collection of
tested recipes from my own kitchen
a dessert for almost any occasion.

Speeding of Sports
Betty Jameson,
Fairway Queen
Popular Winner
By ROBERT McSHANE

MISS BETTY JAMESON, newly
~ crowned queen of the Ameri-
can fairways, occasioned no great
upset when she won the National
Women's Golf championship recent
ly at Noroton, Conn.
In the first place, Miss Jameson
is sturdy, solid sort of a player.
When she defeated 19-year-Old Doro-
thy Kirby of Atlanta in the final
round, even the most rabidly Dixie
minded fans admitted that the Geor-
gia girl lost to the better ShOtmak-
er. Betty, Miss Kirby's senior by
only one year, is recognized as one
of the finest players in feminine
ranks.
This was the second time the two
finaliSts had met. Two years ago,
in the southern championship, the
pride and joy of Atlanta beat Miss
Jameson 3 and 2. The slender Geor-
gia girl was just too good. This
year, in the National meet, the ia
bles were turned. Long-striding Tex
as Betty walked away from Miss
Kirby during the first nine holes,
and never gave her a chance to
catch up. She was 2 up at the ninth,
4 up at the eighteenth, up at the
twenty-seventh. She took the match
and championship title on the thir-
ty-fourth green with the same score

Betty Jameson isn't a golfing
blaze. In other words, she didn't set
the golfing world on fire the first
time she picked up a club. Back of
her success is the usual story of

certain route to success-hard prac-
tice, plenty of it, and patience. The
long, grueling hours she spent on
practice tee are reflected in the
game she plays today.

pendable. Just as $50 batter may
