BY NEWMAN. CAMPBELL.


The lesson today tells the sad story
of how Simon Feter, the "bclcved
disciple, was Gisloyal 70 his Master
1t was like this: Jesus knew, Of
course, that eventually His enemies
would arrest and put Him to death.
The high priests were always trying
to rip Him so that they would have
an excuse to arrest Him. Eut Jesus,
while always preaching what TIe knew
to be the right, was clever in giving
them just the right answers so that
the priests had no excuse for taking
Him into custody.
However Jesus knew that sooner
or later He would be taken and EIo
often referred to it in His talks with
His disciples. Now He knew Peter
very much better than Peter knew
himself. He knew that Peter was a
fine man, but that temptation might
overcome him. And so He told him
that Satan was trying to snare him
hut that He, Christ, was praying for
him.
But Peter, very sure of himself and
of his love and loyalty to Christ, an
swered, Lord, 1 am ready togo with
Thee, both into prison, and to DEATH"
Jesus probably smiled sadly as he
answered II tell thee, Feter, the cock
shall not crow this day, before that
thou shalt thrice deny that thou
knoweSt me-" =
Then Jesus was arrested and taken
to the high priests house, and Peter
followed them. The men took Him in
to the hall and they built fire in
the middle, thereof, and sat down anil
talked. Peter sat with the rest A
young girl looked at him and said,
This man also was with Him. Fear
full of being taken, Peter, without
thinking, answered hastily, Woman,
know Him not"
Then a man accused him of being
one of Jesus followers, and again he
said he was not; and yet third per-
son said, "Of truth this fellow who
also was with Him: for he is Cali
lean" Again Peter denied it, and just
at that moment a cock crew. That

French Try
 Bring Russia Into the Fold

UNDATED, May Is (P) - France tried to find a compromise to bring Russia into the French British front while Hitler and Mussolini inspected German and ItaIi ian Notifications along the French frontier.
 French diplomats hoped to bridge the conf1iction of views between Britain and Russia, by working out a plan for a strong alliance which is acceptable to all three nations.
 Russia's stand for reciprocal military pledges among the three powers was regarded as elastic enough to permit a compromise with the British, who feared that a hard and fast alliance might force Jspan and Spain into stIll closer ties with the Rome-Berlin axis.
 D.p'omets of Britain, France and Russia will have an oppor- tunity ito face negotiation in Gen eva Monday when the League Council meets, but in London it was indicated that Britain might not wait until then for her next move.
 MuSsolini toured the Piedmont of France which coincided with Hitler'S inspection of Germany's new western Notifications for which German military experts claim ''invincibility."
 New symptoms of Geman- Pol ish friction appeared in the Pol ish press which complained of the additional expulsion of Poles from the German frontier zone.
 The Hungarian-Polish rela- tions on the contrary were des- cribed by the pro-government newspaper "Kurjer Poranny" as friendly despite German efforts to interefere with them"

Jack WestIand
Wins NV. Title

VICTORIA, b. C.-The Pacific
Northwest Golfing world today
hailed two champions who proved
they had what 1t takes to dominate
the field.
Jack Westlsnd. Seattle, and
Marian McDougsll. Portland. Ore.
emerged Saturday as winners in
their respective divisions of the
Pacific Northwest Amateur tour
nament. Both were 1888 title
holders and were the targets Of
the field.
Their performances over the six
day grind offered a startling con-
trast.
Westland, seemingly just
getting by from day to day,
went 10 a torrisd 37fh hole
with Fiery Ken Black Of VAN
couver. b. C., Saturday to re-
tain his title.
For Miss McDougsll. however,
the tournament was only another
illustration that, for the time being,
she has no competition among
Northwest women golfers. Every
day the outcome was the same:
Queen Marian rambled through
with utmost ease.
AS . finishing touch. she polished
off Mrs. Carl w. Jones. Seattle,
in the finals. 13 and 12-the con-
test ending on the 14th hole.
The Westland-Black argument
was the natural climax in the
mems division. Westland-ex-
perienced and cool-met the media
list OF the tournament, a COM
parative lad who brushed aside
opposition every day OF the week
every day, that is, until Satur-
day.
Westland took an early lead Of
two holes, held it at the ninth,
and slipped back TO a one-up
margin at the 18th hole.
At the 25th hole, Black
evened the match, but West
land came back 10 take the
28th hole. The match see-
sawed hack and forth until the
two came to the seth, with
Westland one up.
Black recovered wonderfully
from a poor drive and got a four
to Westland's five. Westland's
mastery finally reasserted itself on
the extra hole and he obtained a
par four for the hole, match and
title.
AS it was, Black came as close
to winning the title as any Cana
dian since 1918, when Vernon Ma
con turned the trick at Butte,
Mont.
