If my club-holding were Q x, I would bid four no trumps immediately, as this bid would picture my high cards in all four suits far better than a bid of four diamonds. Missing three kings and two queens, there can be little doubt that the open- er holds three aces and a long suit— from which my hand will eliminate any loser or finesse—to work with. If his hand is short-suited, he probably has all four aces, otherwise he can hardly have had reason to bid more than one no trump. A Two No Trump Hand From Actual Play. Although I do not advise this bid with an unprotected suit, I do some- times take a chance with three little cards in a suit, provided the rest of the hand is very strong, especially when I have a long suit to lead out and may hope to profit by refraining from bidding that suit.

When the opening bid was & diamond, the partner became the declarer in three no trumps; West lald down his king of hearts, “to have a look at dummy,” and seeing the strong hand exposed, obeyed the partner’s echo and so they took in their four heart tricks.

This has been accomp- lished by years of study of causes and by ceaseless and often unrewarded work in the scien- tific laboratories of the world. The most spec- tacular results have been perhaps in the wiping out of yellow fever in Southern coun- tries, which had one epidemic after another, through the discovery that the disease germ was carried by the mosquito. Within the last few years the dis- covery of insulin has made it pos- sible to control the Lo M: Barber. ravages of diabetes. In diabetic con- ditions the body mechanism is unable to take care of sugar Mself and of starch, fat and portein in excess as they are turned into sugar by digestion, ‘The injection of insulin makes it pos- sible for an adequate amount of food NE of the marvels of the age is the way diseases which have for centuries been considered plentiful porportions. as well as other adequate food, pellagara is prevented or cured. Pernicious anemia, a disease consid- | ered incurable, is now in a large per- | centage of cases cured by a diet con- taining liver or liver extract. Another spectacular result has been the control of simple goiter by means of adding iodine to the diet. We are dependent upon our water supply or vegetables and sea food for this im- minute quantities. vegetables come from sections of the country where the soil is rich in iodine, they will be supplied with it. means of jodized salt now obtainable at any grocery. The Journal of the American Medical O. P. Kimball of Cleveland gives some interesting facts in regard to the way the incidence of goiter has been de- creased in the State of Michigan, where it was very prevalent. Dr. Kimball points out that in 1924 the Michigan Department of Health entered into an agreement with salt manufacturers and wholesalers to supply only jodized salt in this State. At the same time the Detroit Board of Education ordered its purchasing department to use only lodized salt in the school cafeterias. to be taken daily and thus prevent , Just before this order became effective the acidosis and the malnutrition which | 80 often follow in the train of diabetes. Another diesease which is being con- trolled by diet is pellagra. All sorts of causes were studied, including the ‘water supply, germs and food. ile it has not been completely established that a lack of vitamin G is the cause, it is known that if diet contains it in Dr. Kimball directed a goiter survey in public schools and discovered an incidence of 36 per cent. Two years later another survey showed only 9.7 per cent. The decrease was so striking that Dr. Kimball was asked to check the survey; he found it correct. The latest survey, made this year, showed a reduction of 2.1 per cent. April Fool’s Day Merriment BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. ARy & e A e N R e TWO OF THE GAMES. ONE OF WHICH RESULTS ALSO IN FINDING PARTNERS. N April fool's party should be full of fun and pranks, but should be minus tricks or games which have any tendency to harm or intimidate. Practical Jjokes can be played provided they are devold of these elements. Sometimes these jokes are delightful, doing the person a good turn, not an annoying one. Amusement should run high. This year, when there have been many puzziing problems to cope with, the idea of festivity based on tricks and Jokes has an especial appeal. Laughter and fun are always especially necded in times of stress. April first affords an excellent opportunity to make merry. PFinding partners can be given a sur- prising twist by having four letters of some five-letter word written on the back of half the cards. These cards are given the men. The women have cards each one of the omitted letters on it. The words should be very simple and of not more than five letters. For example if the word is April, the letters on the card can be P-A-I-L, the letter R being omitted. Or should the word be first the letters on the card can be * R-I-F-T. Or again if the word is fools the letters may be S-O-L-O, the F being omitted. The problem is to find the word and then, from the large let- ters passed to the girls, to choose the correct one to complete it, thus secur- ing a partner. ‘This makes a jolly start as the girls mpeanwhile tre trying to find out in what word their letters belong, and so each group gets acquainted with the other. The omitted letters should never e aljke, for this would not solve the problems of partners, but confuse fit. Here are some other good five-letter | puzzle words to use: Prank, omit n and | write P-A-R-K; stunt, omit one t, write | N-U-T-S; guest, omit e, and T-U-G-S; smile, omit m, and write | L-I-E-S; prize, omit z, write R-I-P-E. | From these samples the hostess can see how to twist words to make others and omit one letter. This method of securing partners results in a game also. ‘The two who are able to hunt out their partners first are awarded a prize. | An amusing April fool prize is a box presumably of candy, since it is filled with tin-foil covered or wrapped pieces. But ohly a few pieces of real candy are to be found, the rest being wads of tis- sue paper, little stones, beans, etc. Some old candy box can be thus filled. It should be handsome and in perfect con- dition. A beauty contest is sure to help mer- riment if it is carried on as follows: Divide the party into two groups. One sits as jury while the other acts as competitors. The worst looking con- testant in each group wins a prize. An | empty picture fame is used for dis- play purposes.

BLUE JAY full o’ sass, in them base ball clothes o' his,” has won for himself and family a disreputable 8 . He is known to be dishonest, eruel, inquisitive, voracious and quarrelsome. Yet he is clothed in a fine shade of blue. Theré are only three or four true bluebirds in America, and they say not even one in England, l?mwlm all his faults “we love him st It has been said that “beauty covers a multitude of sins,” which is true of the blue jay, but as he has a few virtues these should, of course, be mentioned. He pays the farmer for his keep in that he imitates the scream of the hawk so perfectly that many & baby duckling d chick has been saved. One warn- ing is enough, and not a peep is heard as the downy babies seek shelter. He is the best tree and shrub planter in the United States. His propensity to hide things has caused many a barren and waste place to “blossom like a rose.” He is responsible for the planting of beau- tiful wild flowers in out-of-the-way places, and though he hides many things that he should not, much good has come from his secretive habit. Blue jays are permanent residents and are seen traveling southward only when food is scarce. The only time one | is not quarreling and screaming is when he is attending his family or changing his clothes. He is unsociable and is not a good mixer, but as & family man his actions are all that could be desired. He not only helps to collect the material to build the bulky home in the crotch of & tree, but assists his spouse with the construction work. Then he stands guard while she broods the eggs, fight- ing off intruders and taking his turn at the nest while his wife takes her bath and exercise. When the babies arrive (there are six of them) the parents are industry per- sonified. Those yellow-mouthed babies are demanding food from sunrise until sunset. As soon as an infant has had all he can hold he lays his little head on the edge of the rough cradle and goes to sleep. By the time the last baby has been satisfled, junior is awake again and must be fed. Each time the busy father goes back to market he tarries a few minutes from his way station in a tall tree and ad- monishes his spouse to “Fill the kittle, fill the kittle, fill the tea kittle!” On his return from a successful hunting trip, with his mouth full of food, he manages to announce his satisfaction by calling, “Smart Alec! Smart Aleck! Smart Alec!” Alas, while these parents are reduc- ing great hordes of our pests in order to appease the appetites of their off- spring they are dining on birds' eggs and nestlings. After family duties have -BLUE JAY- | been creditably discharged the bird | becomes s little more friendly, and small flocks of blue jays gather, jabber, | murmur and scream. "It is “Old Hol week” with them and they are making the most of it. ‘This Summer you will want to be- come better acquainted with the blue jay and you can identify him by the fact that he is a bit larger than the robin, that he is blue above and has a black band around his neck which joins the black feathers on his back. Also, his vest and trousers are a dusky white, the wing coverts and tail bright blue, that the tail is long and rounded, its many feathers edged with white. The crest 1s held high and the bill, tongue and feet are black. (Copyright, 1933.)

Keep your refrigerator free from unpleasant odors, such as those given off by onions, fish and cheese. Remember that milk absorbs unpleasant odors very ickly and becomes tainted. So oes butter. Always keep milk and butter in the coldest part of your ice box or cellar and you will have no difficulty. A good way to clean oil paint- ings is to cut a raw potato in halves and rub them over gently with it. Constantly cut off the dirty outside of the potato and wipe away any moisture on the painting with a soft rag. Work. the potate carefully one way, and with even strokes. If new tinware is rubbed with fresh lard and then thoroughly heated in the oven, before it is used, it will never rust after- ward, no matter how much water is used in it.

Delayed activity is a splendid mechanism for attracting attention. Then there are those who always get to their appointments ahead of time.

Refutes European Critic’s Charge \DorothyDix] . , ™ v American Woman Attempts Tremendous T-sk of Keeping Husband’s Love at Fever Pitch. S the American woman dumb about love? A European critic brings this charge against her. He asserts that American women are stupid in l matters of the emotions, and that they know neither how to get the men they want nor how to keep those they get. Above all, they lack ‘ the art to keep themselves the center of their husbands’ thoughts and nterests. ‘Well, considering that there are relatively few old maids among us and that most women in this country do manage somehow to get married, the American woman can't be such a dub at husband-hunting as our foreign critic accuses her of being. Perhaps she doesn't always get the man who is the hero of her girlish dreams, but then, in the first place, there isn't any such a person, and, in the second place, few péople ever Tealize their ideals or get their hearts' desires in anything. It is not given to many to marry their romances, and doubtless just as many American women as European women get the one particular man out of all the world that they would have picked if they had been given their choice in the matter. Monwvm, in those lands in which marriages are arranged by the parents it is easier for a girl to gratify her fancy in husbands than it is with us, where she has to depend upon her own littie bow and arrow to bring down the mate upon whom she has set her eye, and where her background of family is of little or no help to her. She cannot go into the open market and purchase the latest, sweetest, romantic thing in husbands. She has no managing mother to lend her a helping hand, and yet, despite handicaps, she arrives at the altar, and lthn. should absolve her from the reproach of being a bungler in the love game. NOH. can the charge that the American woman is less successful than other women in holding her husband’s affections be substantiated. On the contrary, the American husband is notably domestic and well known for being the most thoroughly house-broken married man in the world. ‘That this takes some doing, as the English say, and not a feat to be accom- plished by an emotional moron is beyond dispute. = As a matter of faet, the task of keeping just a. plain ordinary man, who is shy on romance and sentiment, anyway, keyed up for 30 or 40 years of married life to a high pitch of love-making is a task so difficult that only “the American woman has had nerve to tackle it. It is only she who under- goes the tortures of slow starvation to maintain the figure of a lady love and thus keep her husband tually allured. It is only she who works like a coal heaver to raise s and palpitations in the breast of a fat, middle-aged husband. IT is only the American woman who beats upon her breast and rends the air with her walls of grief if her husband slows down to second speed in love-making and merely says it by being a good provider and generous and kind and sticking as close to his fireside as the house cat And it is only American women who consider that for a husband’s temperature to drop from the fever heat of his courting days to normal after marriage consti- tutes cruelty and neglect and is just cause for divorce. Other women take marriage more rationally and they don't expect the impossible of it, either for themselves or their husbands. They '“"?,fi marriage more philosophically and with a fatalistic, what-will-be-will-| spirit. They know you can’t keep romance at the boiling point. It will cool off. The fires of passion will burn down. Bank them and they will still produce a pleasant heat, even if they don't scorch your fingers any more. Age will come. Beauty will go. You can’t change it. So shrug your ::oulders and make the best of it. That’s their creed and a better one an ours. YOU can't imagine the women of any other country than ours giving up their good homes, their comfortable place in society, their fine clothes, their luxurious cars because their husbands have ceased to make ardent love to them. Yet the grievance of nine-tenths of the disgruntled women against their husbands is that they don’t hold their hands and quote poetry to them and talk sentiment to them, Which is both pathetic and funny, but it certainly shows that American women work harder to hold their husband’s affections than any other woman extant. As for & woman absorbing her husband'’s thoughts and interests and keeping them centered in her during the long stretch of married life, that is something that can’t be done by any woman of any nationality what- soever, because love is of man’s life a thing apart. It is never his whole existence. If he is a real man he has something to think about besides the state of his affections. He has something myre important to do than counting his heart throbs. HE has his career, his work, vital interests in great world affairs. He has primarily to make a living for the wife and children who are de- pendent ubon him. And this is likely to be a poor one if his mind is more conc‘;rraed with what his wife is doing than what his business rivals are apt to do. Certainly the American woman who aspires to absorbing her hus- band’s thoughts and interests is doomed to disappointment, for the real passion of every American man is business, and no mere wife can ever raise the thrill in his bosom that a 20-point jump in stocks can. The best and most devoted husbands in the world are American men, but they are not lovers who have reduced soft talk and sentiment to an art. DOROTHY DIX.

Had the mald taken your name and gone to see if her employer was at home and had then returned with this message, it would have been rude. When you want to see a woman especially, it is best to telephone be- forehand and ask when she will be at home. “Dear Mrs. Post: Sometimes such simple acts can be so exasperating—one of my friends never stops to remove her wet rubbers or galoshes at the door, but always walks straight through and into my living room.

The memory < of that Senate session a few weeks back when the proposal for submission of the repeal amendment was up still lingered. On that occasion Sheppard, in an/ unruffied manner, filibustered until way into the night to prevent a vote. Long | and dreary hours were tolled away to | a fatigued Senate by his reading of page | after page from the minutes of the | League of Nations. | 1t was a different Sheppard who took Underweight and Pores. ‘ EAR MISS LEEDS: I am 19 years old, 5 feet 3!7 inches | tall and weigh 104 pounds.

My face soon becomes oily again, however. I have tried steaming my face, press- ing out the numerous tiny blackheads, then rinsing in boric acid solution, with a final cold-water rinse, but next day the blackheads are as bad as ever. How can I clear my skin? R. V. E. | Answer—The average weight for your | age and height is between 120 and 125 pounds, so you see that you are con- siderably underweight. You may not be sick enough to go to bed, but a girl with your beauty problems—poor skin and underweight—is not what I call “in good health.” A really healthy girl weighs within 10 pounds of the average for her age and height. she is full of vitality, has a good digestion, is not nervous and, with reasonable care, has a clear, smooth skin. Excessive oiliness of the skin is often associated with a nervous, run-down condition and no amount of external beauty aids will | cure this sort of oiliness. So my first bit of advice to you is that you have a thorough physical examination by a doctor and follow his suggestions on building up robust health. When your | whole body is toned up your skin will become less oily and finer in texture. If you live in a very grimy, sooty atmosphere it may be necessary to wash your face as often as you do, but under ordinary conditions twice a day is enough. At bedtime use plenty of warm water and soap, working up a thick lather with a complexion biush. t the lather dry, or begin to dry, on the skin before rinsing it all o ¢ | warm water.

Not that there was any less earnest- ness and zeal apparent than before. His speech lacked none of the fervor and conviction which the Senate long since became familiar with when he dis- cussed this question. In a dark gray suit and blue tie, he spoke in a slow, deliberate, but emphatic fashion. The occasion might have been one of those appearances he makes to extol the benefits of prohibition to the Senate on the anniversary of the enact- ment of the eighteenth amendment. Perhaps he realized that the odds were against him and his cause. In- deed he had told nowspaper men be- fore going into the Senate that he had gfilmmuan of filibustering against the “I merely want to make some obser~ vations for the record,” was the way he_expressed it to the Senate. Few men in recent times “on the hill” have gone down to defeat more gracefully than did Sheppard. He has lost little of his personal popularity through the years he has fought so con- sistently for the principles he espouses. There is nothing about him suzges- tive of the prohibitionist of opposition cartoons. He always has been accepted as a “good fellow.” His twinkling blue eyes, his evident pleasure of hearing and telling a good story—even at his own expense—have won for him a wide personal following.
