"Huh !" replied little Mrs. Peter, *T
don't see anything surprising about
that. There are more things you don't
know about and never will know
about, Peter Rabbit, than ever yon
have heard or dreamed of. That Is
why It Is so silly of you to think yon
know all there Is to know."
Peter pretended not to hear, and
continued to think about Short-Tall
the Shrew. "He isn't a Mole and he
isn't a Mouse; he Is sort of halfway
between the two," thought Peter.
"He spends a lot of time under ground
like Miner the Mole, and that is why
his eyes are not much bigger or bet
ter than Miner's. At the same time
he la quick on his feet like a Mouse

think I'll run over to the Smiling Pool
this evening and see what the news Is
there."
Peter hadn't Intended to say this
aloud, but. he did. It is a way he
sometimes has of talking to himself.
"The best thing for you to do Is to
stay at' home where you belong," de
clared little Mrs. Peter rather sharply.
"I should think you would want to
stay at home once in a while."
Peter looked a little sheepish, but
said nothing. When jolly, round, red
Mr. Sun slipped down behind the Pur
ple Hills to go to bed, Peter watched
the Black Shadows creep out across
the Green Meadows and then started
for the Smiling Pool. He knew that at
this time of day he would be almost
sure to find Jerry Muskrat, for It Is
the time of day when Jerry loves to
swim about and go visiting.
Nor was Peter disappointed. Jerry
was just climbing out on the Big Rock
and In his mouth was a mussel, which
is what some people call a fresh water
than to ask
any questions until Jerry had finished
his feast If Jerry knew that Peter
was there, he made no sign. Very de
liberately he opened the mussel and
ate it dropping the shell In the wa
ter. When he had finished smacking
his Ups he looked over to where Peter
sat on the bank.
"Good evening, Peter," said he.
"You are quite a stranger. Have you
over to help me build a new
come
house?
"Have I what?" „cried Peter.
"Have you come over to help me
build a new house?" repeated Jerry.

k>
F RANCIS OUIMET, one of the best
known exponents of recovery shots,
thinks a practice sand trap would be
a helpful addition to most courses.
Those extra strokes that the average
golfer takes In getting out of trouble
are, according to Ouimet, the cause of
high scores, A sand trap usually
frightens such a player out of any
semblance of a sound stroke. Some
times he experiments with a shot he
thinks would work and finds It will
not. Generally the safest and most
used method is the explosion shot.
Ouimet Is an expert at this phase of
the game and more than once has
Wasted opponents' hopes by a perfect
blast from the bunker that on occa
sions landed the ball Into the cup.
In the explosion shot Hie clubhead
does not touch the ball.' It is lifted
out by the force of the clubhead as It
cuts through the sand beneath It. The
important thing is to hit well behind
the ball so that the danger of driving
the ball Into the sand will be elim
inated.

HOLD FAST
By DOUGLAS MALLOCH
ITHIN a pasture lot one day,
Where I had gone to ketch a
colt,
I let the critter git away—
Let go to git a better holt.
And then I stood and blamei) the beast.
Like people will, got good and mad.
Because It took an hour at least
To git again the holt I had.
W
Yet In that pasture, it appears,
I tenrnt a lesson, learnt a lot:
I don't let go, in later years.
Until a better holt I got
Hold fast, the Scriptures say. to good.
Until some other thing you know
Will turn out like you thought it
would,
Of what you got don't quite let go.
If I had held him by the mane
Until 1 got h!s halter on—
I guess the lesson's party plain,
With either job or money gone.
For lots of things can go astray
About the same as horses bolt.
So don't let go—not. anyway,
Until you got a better holt

Howe About:
Better Amusements
Our Failing Minds
Bernard Shaw
By ED HOWE
LTHOUÖH It Is said abroad Amer
icans are the greatest Idlers In
the world. It has Anally been agreed
among ourselves we have been work
ing too long hours, and that In future
we must play more.
And now the question comes up for
What shall we do with
additional Idle time! How And
enjoyments in our shlft'essness?
Why not try some new amusements?
Why not rub up our knowledge of
finance, and less frequently become
the victims of sharpers? Why not
athletic clubs to chase outlaws, now a
real menace to our homes? And speak
ing of homes again, why not beautify
them more, and add comforts hereto
fore lacking? Why not clubs of citi
zens to Improve our public affairs?
Half of us are dumb as to the real
value of print: why not read more,
and with greater discretion? Why not
pay more attention to the joys and
benefits of good health? Most of us
gobble our food like pigs, and. lack
ing their digestion and shorter years,
have become so quarrelsome. Inefficient
and dumpy that one-quarter of the pop
ulation Is now howling for public re
lief, with most of the rest of us look
ing on shamelessly, and thinking It
may be a good idea for everybody.
A
discussion :
our
new
Do races Inevitably run out? Is It
hopeless to struggle for their Improve
ment and continuance?
It seems to me I am able to note a
sad deterioration since the Civil war.
Compare congress now with congress
of 75 years ago, and how shabbily
1033 comes off! There Isn't a man
of ability In the present congress (or
cabinet, or Supreme court) to com
pare with dozens who might be named
within ten years of 1858.
The deterioration of races 1s Intel
lectual. We are healthier now than
ever before; we have Improved our
lamps and our buggies, but have
shamefully neglected our minds.
It may well occur to every man that
he is doing well enough physically, but
that his mind Is falling.
• • •
Bernard Shaw has his opinion of
mankind, and expresses it publicly, In
stead of privately, as m ost other men
do. For this he is cordially hated, al
though everybody knows his opinions
of humanity are sound ; at least, sound
er than the opinions of other writing
men.
îîy relations with Bernard Shaw are
excellent. I do not know him, or wish
to know him, and never write him. I
hear he is polite enough to those who
have good reason to call on or write
him.
During a recent Journey at sea Shaw
went on deck early one morning, and
found an old man leaning Indifferently
over the rail.
"How does It come," Shaw asked,
"that you are the only man on the
ship who has not annoyed me?"
"Because 1 do not want to know
you, or talk to you," the man an
swered.
"Ever hear of me?" Shaw asked
again.
"I know all about you,') the man re
plied. "I have read tiearly everything
said about you, or you have written.
You are one of my heroes. I admire
you because of your impudence In say
ing what you think of everybody and
everything. I think the same things
and am afraid to say them. You
save me the trouble. I beg you to pro
ceed with your -Walk."

Sllerius said In his memoirs;
all my life I have known but one real
ly Intelligent and fair woman." . . . (As
every other man will probably say he
has known at least one such woman,
there must be a good many of them.)
• * •
Thousands have known the true
philosophy of life,
whipped by mob men that now no one
dares be sensible. ... All men are
more Intelligent than their actions
Indicate. Foolish tradition, and fool
ish, continuous quarreling about It,
have made fools of us all.

Considering the rough manner In
which all men are forever trying to
muss up all women, some women look
very well.
And been so

It Is well known that most men of
discernment have poor opinion of the
people en masse, because of their low
average In Intelligence, morals, polite
ness and fairness; because of their In
sistence on ruining every civilization
the better men have attempted.

It fa often said the English have no
sense of humor. ... An Englishman
relates that a child on first seeing a
rainbow, asked:

Is reported as saying: "The only time
a horse scares nowadays Is when he
sees another horse." . . . As a con

Find Bedtime Lullabies
Restful for Children
Entrants in a "lullaby contest'"
held by the Home Magazine show
that mothers, are still—or again—
singing to th eir children at bedtime.
Although for a time lullabies went
out with the prohibition on rocking
the baby to sleep, mothers have
found that It's restful and quieting
for children if they are sung to at
bedtime.
Some of the songs they like the
best are those handed down In the
family from generation to generation.
—songs that perhaps great-grand
mother made up herself. Some of
them are sung in every household
■where there are children.
"All Aboard for Blanket Bay" and
"The Slumber Boat" were two of
the favorites, along with a Brahms,
lullaby and a Mozart lullaby and,
' "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star."
