Those two were the only ones he was i afraid of in daytime. At night there was always Hooty the Owl. but i Peter didnt think of Hooty in the . daytime. That was Perer's mistake. for on dull dark days iiooty does l. go hunting, especially when food is g. scarce and he is very, very hungry. Many people think that Owls can- -l not see in the daytime. That is a gto hunt after the coming of the Black Shadows. but there are times 'f5.when they go hunting in the day- , time. 1' Peter's eyes are so placed in his if head that he can look behind him . without turning his head. He was ” only a little way out from the dear . Old Briar-Patch when. looking 'back. he caught a glimpse of l-iooty -the Owl coming after him on big . swift wings.

It varies according to j the need of getting from one place to another. It is not a great way . across the Green Meadows to the dear Old Briar Patch. but right then it was a long, long distance. You see Hooty could fly faster than -behind without having to turn his f bead. iiooty was almost up with him. He was just ready to makey an extra swoop and clutch Peteri .in thoisegreat claws of his. Right then Peter dodged. You know. Pet- Ver is a master of the art of dodg- - jig while running. It is a trick that all members of the Rabiit family know and practice. It was surprising how quickly Hooty turned. Peter was hardly g straighten d out and running again - ztoward the Green Forest when Hooty was right behind him. Peter zdodged again. In doing this, he was headed in another direction. It was then that Peter began to almost despair. Hooty's wings made no sound as do the wings 'of most birds. The wings of some birds flying fast make a sharp whistling 7 mund. Hootyis wings make no sound at all. Somehow that seemed in make it worse for Peter. It gave him the feeling that that fierce he really was. ,l Yes, Peter was beginning to des- pair. He was sure now that he wouldnt 'be able to get to the t Shirts LAUNDERED .

Peter could just get in that hole in the ground he would be safe. Hooty the Owl couldnlt follow him there. Peter managed to run just a little faster.

USEFUL BOAT The name "dinghy" is believed to have come from "dint-2e,” a type of rowboat used centuries ago in India. Sirange,Bui True By F. ii. MacArthur All cities and towns have traffic woes these days. But cheer up. By 2000 A.D. all of our worries will be over. According to the Automot- ive Safety Council three-le"vel high- ways will be commonplace in big cities, with parking largely under- ground and new office buildings of- fering parking place for their oc- cupants on each floor. Despite fantastic increases in highway traffic. there will be lard- ly any congestion because of sup- erb expressways. Cities will be by- passed. lakes bridged, and mount ain ranges tunneled. Headlights will not be needed much of the time because major yiighways will be lighted as bright as day. Sleet or snow will melt as it hits the pave- ment. And if cars are disabled. they'll be whisked away by heli- copier. No congestion. annoying delays. or parking problems. Too wonder- ful to be true? Well, perhaps. But it's the promise for the future. Each morning in St. Paul's Cath- edral in London. an attendant un- locks a glass case and turns a slug- le page in an open book which in two feet high. The book lists the names. in large letters, of 28.000 American airmen, soldiers, and sailors who died during the Second World War while fighting out of bases in the United Kingdom. Two fresh pages are exposed for cathedral visitors to read each day. When the verger gets to the end of the 474 pages, he begins all over. Every 237th. day the name of each of the Amer- icans comes up for view. The book has taken on a special interest. Cathedral authorities have completed plans for an American Memorial Chapel which will be a conspicuous part of the majestic building after the last of the war damage has been repaired. The chapel will become the permanent home of the book. All the money for the chapel has been collected in Britain. It amounts to about S280.000. St. Paul's stands on Ludgate Hill, one of the highest in the city of London. The cathedral has been towering over London for 250 years and looks almost as it did when the United States was still a Brit- ish colony. Outwardly it will not change. Bill when the restoration is finished. the interior will be near- er what it was intended to be by its architect and builder, Sir Christ- opher Wren. It took 35 year s' to build 8. Paul's. after the old cathedral had been wrecked by the great London fire in 1666. Wren design d 70 churches and replanned London after the fire. He submitted nine designs for St. Paul's before one was accepted by government and church authorities-and then only af- ter many changes in Wren's ideas Husband, Wife Hurt In Qucirrel MONTREAL tCPl - Provincial police said today a husband and wife now are in hospital at Sweets- burg, Que.. with skull fractures suf; fered during a quarrel Monday night.

By an ironical twist of fate. Wren's ideas finally are being real- ized because of the German bonihs which did extensive damage to the church during the war. Reconstruc- tion workers are finding that Wren original ideas were the best and are rebuilding the church along those lines.
