A small man cannot write a great hlography.” he said, “for he can see hut ene side of a many-sided man such as was Washington No man has ever suffered more at the hands of alleged historians than has Georae Washington.” Dr. Lewis deplored the modarn tendency to give over such anniversaries as Washington's birth- day to sports and recreation, and urged a return to the ideals of the T'nited States, the home land, and the private home. He warned against the fallacy of thinking too much in world terms and said that “the dis- integration of vouth and the disin- tegration of the home go on at the same time.” Trend to Biographies. In answer to statements holding that not as much history is read in these days as in former periods, Dr. Lewis stated that he did not believe @s much formal history was read but that there was more biography in eir- culation, particularly books which aftord intimate, human. glimpses of the men and women of colonial times. In taking up the attributes of Washington as a statesman, he said that his regard for the sanctity of the Constitution would have made him a supporter of the eighteenth amendment had he lived in a day when it was a part of the Constitu- tlon. Washington knew how to think, he said\and added that “our business is not' to teach the youth of America what to think but how to think. That's the difference between system and efficiency.” The society devoted its program to “George Washington.” The hall was decorated with flags and portraits of ‘Washington and the meeting opened with the singing of *“America,” led by Maude Emig Murphy, soloist, and Minnie A.

Why? Per haps to befog us all. My partner (A) read her for a strongly compensated declaration; her partner read her for a long, solid diamond suit; I re- served judgment. A Dbid 2-hearts. Y. having slightly more than a_sound raise for a legiti mate 2-bid, hoped to silence further bidding a t, and so went 4.diamonds. 1 had two raises for my partner and 1 bid 4hearts. Lured Into Bid. Of course, the heart declaration made back of her king of that suit should have caused Z to revalue her hand, which at best could be valued at only five tricks, whereas she had already announced a stronger holding. But it was rubber game, and fond visions of either winning the rubber or of saving it at small cost lured her into bidding 5-diamonds. My partner doubled, then came the deluge. My partner's hunger for three trump tricks caused him to lead his only club, hoping that 1 might hold the ace of that suit, or in case 1 lacked that honor, that when he won his first trump trick he could put me in with another lead, so as to be al- lowed to ruff clubs. I won the first trick, and gave him the ruff. The fact that T had ventured to give him a raise of two tricks made him read me for the top spade, and he led back his fourth best card of that suit. In- stinct alone caused me to return a heart instead of again ruffing him. which would have saved the declarer one trick had 1 tried to ruff my part- ner, as then he would never have been able to win two heart tricks, hecause the declarer could have discarded a heart on one of dummy’s good spades. Set Five Tricks. Winning the first five tricks, with the two trump tricks which we won later, set the declaration five tricks, doubied, against vulnerable pair, yield- ing us 2,400 points, with no_honors to deduct. At auction we would have been awarded only 500 points, less 30 points for the simple honors held by the declaring side, a net total of only 470 points, or slightly less than one- fifth of what we made at contract. This important fact that a side may lose five times as much at contract as at auction, on the same hand and bid- ding, renders the subject worthy of serious thought. The trouble with Z was that she lacked sufficient knowl- edge of values and bidding to properly enter an auction bridge game. She was far more out of place in contract | | CELLS HELD IMMORTAL. | Alive 15 Years. | NEW YORK, “ells of the hu | tially immortal.” Dr. ‘ebruary 16 (). | in, an address | of the New York Academy of Sc | He described the process by wl res of tissues of an embr | eh and repr lucing 15 years, Colds Pain Neuriti$ Neuralgia Jafe” Cultures of Chicken Tissues Kept an bodg are “poten Alexis Carrel, of the Rockefeller Institute declared ken heart” had bheen kept alive !

But few ever guessed that some of Mr. Grapewin’s funniest scenes were played while he was suffering agonies with stomach trouble. While playing in his well-known success, “The Awakening of Mr. Pipp,” Mr. Grapewin’s stomach trouble became so bad that it seemed as if he might have to quit the stage for a time. Fortunately, he was induced to try Adlerika. Results were so good that he has never been without a bottle since. “It surely is great,” he declares, “to be able to eat anything I want without fear of gas or other stom- ach trouble.” 5 THOUSANDS of theater-goers STOMACH GAS, indigestion, gas bloating, and other forms of stomach and bowel trouble are often due to just one cause—Intes- tinal Stasis. This increatin{ly common disease, which is usually caused by improper food, lack of exercise, and other faults of mod- ern life, is said to afflict three people out of every four. Intestinal Stasis simply means the too slow movement of waste food matter through the intestines. Instead of being promptly passed out of the bowels, this waste mat- ter remains many hours or even days longer than it should. It then ferments, forms gas and poi- sons, and causes gas bloating, sour stomach, indigestion and sleepless- ness. A person may have Intestinal Stasis and yet not be noticeably constipated. The bowels may move Adlerika, first used by Dr. Carl Weschcke in his private practice, is a bowel cleanser and intestinal prophylactic which acts upon BOTH upper and lower bowel. It is a compound of the best saline intestinal evacuant with vege buckthorn and cascara, together with glycerine and other detergent and gas-expelling elements, Gas Relieved System Cleansed NE of the first effects of Ad- lerika is to relieve gas on the stomach and gas bloating. Often ONE spoonful brings out a surpris- ing amount of old poisonous mat- ter which you never guessed was in your system and which may have been the hidden cause of indiges- tion, nervousness, sleeplessness and other trouble. Even if your bowels move daily, Adlerika fre- quently brings out a surprising amount of additional matter which might poison your system. Adlerika is not a cure-all, In cases of gastric ulcers or deep- seated organic trouble, a good hysician should be consulted. %ut if your trouble is due to In- testinal Stasis (as most stomach and bowel disorders are), Adlerika gives surprisingly quick r;hef. Many physicians recognize it as the one dependable remedy for Gas and Intestinal Stasis or when- ever REAL bowel cleansing is necessary. Don’t think if your bowels move daily that you cannot have Intes- tinal Stasis. Gas is one of the most common symptoms. You'll be surprised at the amount of ad- ditional matter which Adlerika daily, but the movements are onl partial. Enough old matter is left to form gas, hinder digestion and poison the system. Action Needed on Both Bowels RDINARY laxatives or soda or magnesia cannot give more than temporary relief from Intes- tinal Stasis or Gas.
