This is well for the milliners, for a year or so ago hats often were so un- comfortable and often fitted so firmly over the ears that many younger women were inclined to go bareheaded, and at almost every bridge party or afternoon tea one attended one could count two or three more independent young women who had taken off_their hats, for the sake of comfort.

Pickfair is run on English lines. Doug prefers the British break- fast, and Mary has told intimates that some day she will spend a good half- year in the isles. The colony has gone orchid quite| heavily. Gardenias were the order of the day last season. Ladles affected white and looked like sugar. figures from old-fashioned wedding cakes.

Belles will be squired in the proper fashion. Much mystery surrounds the making of John Barrymore's next picture. But the secret, probed, is that Barrymore s about to turn slap-stick comedy for a change. The story centers about the hostess who finds at the last moment that she has 13 to dinner, so sends to an agency for an_extra man. Barrymore is the man. He has to eat the rubber squab, sit on a chair that collapses with him, and do sundry other original comedy stunts. Just now he is busy Wheedling studio authorities into allowing him to go blackface for the finish of the picture. The Chaplin picture .is not being held up by reason of the fact that Virginia Cherrill sees life through two tiny slits that once were eyes. The lovely blond leading lady seemed to be getting lockjaw. At least her jaws grew stiff, following a quite simple acci- dent, wherein she cut her hands and knees. Doctors administered a very large dose of tetanus serum, and the ensu- ing swelling of her countenance will keep her out of work for some time. But Charlie had a number of scenes to work on in which the leading lady is not included, so the lot is busy, as ‘usual. Chaplin’s concession to modernism doesn't include talkies.

JOHN MUNCE, JR. contlnulng the bidding of fourth hand: What has been written prior to this refers to doubtful hands. There are mlnyrroamve combinations which justify fourth hand making an assertive bid. Such an assertive combination would be strength in the two major suits, usually as a hand which contains four positive tricks, preferably two in each of the major suits. The question with these assertive hands is always, “Does this hand rea- sonabli assure me game when combined with the hand of my passing partner?” To illustrate: Dealer passes, second hand passes, third hand passes and fourth hand holds the following: Spades—Ace, king, 6, 4 2. Hearts_King, queen, 7, 5. Dismonds—s, Clubs—Ace 5, 3. After three passes, fourth hand with this holding would be justified in bid- ding a spade, because, with this hold- ing, you could grevenz game should there be any bid by the opponents; and almost any support from your partner gncllcllly assures you game. If fourth and is doubtful, ‘pass. If the hand justifies an assertive bid, make it. The next point for discussion is the position of fourth hand when dealer and second hand have passed and third hand has bid. This, on the face of it, looks as if fourth hand could be gov- erned by the rules of the second hand bid, after dealer has bid; but such is not the case. Dealer has passed and second hand has passed, but it does not mean that these hands are blank. It simply means that the hands did not warrant a bid. Therefore, if fourth hand holds general strength without a well defined assertive bid in his own hand, it is wisdom to double; because by doing this he gets the opportunity to find out the strength of his partner's hand, and thus make a combination bid which would assure game. The following hand{ lz‘ an illustration of when fourth hand should double instead of bidding: Spades—Ace. king. aueen, 6. Hearts—King. 10. 6, Dinmonds—Queen, jack, 8, 6. Clubs—King, 7. Dealer passed, second hand_ passed | | and third hand bid one heart. In dou- | bling this bid with the above hand, | fourth hand is calling for his partner's best suit if it only contains four cards.| It has also been shown by experience that it is much better to play the two hands’ in a case like this with the strong hand exposed. It also is gener- ally agreed that it is wiser for fourth hand to double and accept his partner's bid than to bid himself, unless he is absolutely certain of going game with the holding in his own hand. ‘The next position to be discussed is that of fourth hand after a bid by dealer and a pass by second and third hands. With such bidding, the pass by second hand obviously denotes weak- ness; and third hand, not being forced to assist his partner, has passed without disclosing his strength. Undoubtedly, by not making a denial bid, he is pleased with his partner's bid. This leaves fourth hand the alternative of first ‘making an _ assertive bid, denoting strength and the desire to play the hand at that declaration, and, second, to make what is known as a lead-direct- ing bid, which is purely informative and | made with the idea of preventing the opponents from going game. To illus- trate an assertive bid by fourth hand: | Dealer has bid one spade, second and third hands have passed and the fol- lowing is held by fourth hand: Spades—King. jack, 7, 5 Clubs—King, queen, 8. . In this hand the suit bid by dealer is stopped twice, and the hand contains PARIS.—A gray satin cravat_collar trims Yteb's one-plece dress of light- Diagonal incrustations develop into ;IId_;Aln- weight mixture in warm yellow, verted pleats front and back. (TSI Z_ ST R the necessary high cards in the other three suits to warrant a bid of one no trump over a one spade bid by dealer. To illustrate a lead-directing bid: If dealer bids one no trump and second and third hands pass, fourth hand, if holding a solid suit, should bid two of t suit, or if he holds an ace, queen, jack and two small cards of any suit he should bid two of that suit, even though he has no re-entry in his hand; but with a re-entry in his hand he should bid two of any five-card suit he may hold in his hand, if the suit con- tains three honors.

They avoid certain foods to stay thin. They eat others to get fat. But many are running a serious danger because they are missing the “roughage” or “bulk” foods that every person must have to keep well. As a result, constipation gets in its deadly work. Headaches, list- lessness, circled eyes are only the first symptoms. In the end, con- tipation ruins health, wrecks beauty and may cause serious disease. Don’t neglect your daily rough- age. That is nature’s rule. Kellogg’s ALL-BRAN will supply it. A health- ful cereal to eat each day. To use in cooked dishes or to serve with ilk or cream.
