L | Hi 1 BY BARBARA BELL. \HE thought of a pretty dress to wear back to school in- variably helps to lift the gloom that settles on little people when vacation is over. The little model pictured is new, fresh and gay. It is French in feel- ing. The shaped yoke, drooping ever s0 slightly over the shoulders, follows e trend that is expressing itself in MAGAZINE PAGE Frock for a Little Girl picturesque puffs and quaint, un- broken shoulder lines. This is just the frock you are look- 4ng for, if you have little girls to sew for. The pattern is so simple a be- ginner will be able to make it with- out complications. It includes two different sleeves—long ones for mid- ‘Winter school wear (see back view), and dressy little puffed ones for Summer, or party frocks. The new cottons for children are enchanting this year. Among them tiny summery -flowers, lawns that look as bright and naive as a Dblossoming countryside in Spring. Dark linens and lawns are being used for touches of contrast. They are considered very practical when chosen in a color that picks up the tones of the print used in the dress. Also in evidence are prints with dark backgrounds. In these fabrics we note & great deal of red combined with vivid contrasts Congquering Contract BY P. HAL SIMS. Mr. Sims is universally acclaimed the preatest living contract and auction player. He was captain of the renowned “Four Horsemen” team, now disbanded, and has won 24 national champion- ships since 1924. These articles are based on the Sims system, which includes the one-over-ome principle, which the Sims group of players was $he first to employ and develop. ‘What Odds a Double, if This Happens? 00: F THE bidding had proceeded nor- mally, I would rarely lead away from & king against a six-no- trump contract, unless there were some logical reason for my doing neither would any fairly decent yer.

Plain solid colors are being used profusely, too. And they have a way with them. Among the new colors we find pink, pale blue, peach, yellow, green, fire-brand and egg-shell. These are all lovely in the swisses, organ- dies, dimities, percales, poplins and broadcloths. Seersuckers, in a weight known as chiffon, is a satisfactory fabric for children. It gives their wardrobe variety, and is easy to take care of. Barbara Bell Pattern No. 1538-B is designed in sizes 2, 4 and 6 years. Size 4 requires about 2% yards of 36-inch material. Pattern includes panties cut bias—and 3 yard of 36-inch contrast. Every Barbara Bell pattern includes an illustrated guide which is easy to understand.

All South has to hold is the ace of clubs and the queen of diamonds. After East's strong bidding had reached its climax, South doubled. A logical inference may be drawn from the double. South is willing to have North lead either of the two off suits, but he pleads for a suit opening in which North holds an honor. South might hold: Sp.—x-x. Dia.—Q-J-x-X. Hts.—K-10-x-x. CL—A-x-X. In other words, if North leads away from either the king of diamonds or the queen of hearts (provided that he has either of those two cards), South can set up one or more tricks for his xld: before his ace of clubs is driven out. As a matter of fact, the four hands were actually: & J-x-x v 8-7-6-5 4 K-10-x-x & J-x # 10-X-X-X-X N & A-K-9 ¥ K-J-10-9 w_L!:azi 8 & A-K-10-x-x-x & Q-x ¥ Q-x-x 4 A-J-x-X-X East, as any one can see, was a trifie mad. With a diamond opening, East's contract is defeated four tricks. unimagi natively? A heart! South’s double So what did North open, - was not especially fine, but South had an idea that the bidding was not ac- cording to Hoyle (or to any one else). He decided that his partner held one of the two red kings, and as he held the ace of diamonds and the queen of hearts he doubled—hoping that his partner would rise to the occasion and lead away from a three-card suit headed by the king. The occasion for such a double as South made is infrequent. Maniacs are barred in most bridge clubs. A small-slam contract that is not a sacrifice is rarely defeated more than o::e ;rttw&g tricks at the outside, and at that, contract is usually un- doubled.

D. blood is the life” in every- 143 thing animate. Without blood there could be no life, ) oxidaticn or pro- duction of ener- gy, or through metabolism of unused foods that must be thrown off again. So the blood Wm. H. Hay, M. D. mean also the lymph circulation, which is not blood, but the fluids of the circulation car- ried by means of every part of the body, every cell of the entire structure having access to the lymph channels. If the body is saturated with debris of every sort, and if this must find its way out by means of the stream of blood and lymph, it is small wonder that this stream becomes little better than a sewer at times. Included with the nourishment dis- tributed to the tissues is oxygen, with- out which we could live but a few pre- carious and painful minutes. The red cells of the blood, the erythrocytes, are small protein cells, each with a very short life cycle, supposed to be about two weeks. The function of these cells is to hold in their tissues a charge of iron in organic form. Iron has the function of combining with oxygen; in this form of attraction or combina- tion it finds its way intd the tissues, through the blood channels. In the tissues it mects carbon, which it ex- changes for the oxygen carried thus far, and so not only brings in oxygen to the tissues but also carries out the used carbon, thus acting as nourisher and scavenger at the same time. It is this interchange between oxy- gen and carbon that keeps us alive, and it is because we must make this exchange continually that we are compelled to breathe. Inspiration carries in the oxygen of the air, and exhalation emits the used carbons that clog and foul the body if not kept removed continually. Add to this double function of the blood that also of a carrier to the tis- sues of the digested and absorbed products of the foods eaten, and again carrying out from the same tissues the waste created there. You will then visualize the reason for the saying that the blood is the life. Subjected as the blood is to such contamination with the'used materials of metabolism, the various katabolic products that must find their way out continually, it is not strange that this vital fluid becomes often overburdened with the waste of the body, and breaks down, or becomes infected. We then have the various blood diseases which will be discussed in the next few papers, It we can keep down the creation of waste to such point as can be con- tinually removed daily, then we end the blood saturation that impairs the function not only of this vital stream of life, but as well all of the tissues bathed by it; likewise, every organ that depends daily on the blood for those materials necessary for function, and also for the very necessary scav- enging that keeps the organ in work- ing condition at all times. Keep the blood right and every or- gan and tissue of the body will enjoy perfect health.

The absence of companionship or social contacts’will account for scarcely half of the lone- someness that one may experience. On the contrary, one may be lonesome even in crowded streets and hilarious celebrations. Certain days, especially in late Sum-' mer, are accompanied by strange and indescribable feelings. If these feel- ings are not those of lonesomeness, they certainly resemble them, The hue of the skies, or perhaps the at- mospheric pressure, cr the breezes, or the lengthening of shadows now and then revives forgotten memories which were stored up in the days of one's youth. The weather powerfully affects one’s passing moods and therefore the access to memories appropriate to them. In a very general sense our mental states run in cycles. Our personali- ties seem to shrink and expand in fairly regular pulsations. We are not usually aware of these fluctuations. But now and then we are, those periods of “low tide” our egos dwarf and shrivel. Somehow we feel that something is lost. And this feel- ing is also one of lonesomeness. (Copyright, 1934.)

Dorothy Dix Says Youth the Supreme Joytime of Life?—As Each Decade Passes We Savor to the Full the Sweetness of Its Offering. THINK we make no greater mistake than in painting youth as the supreme joytime of life. This not only makes the young feel that they must squeeze into it every possible amusement and cxcitement, because their time of enjoyment is short, but it causes so many older people to cling piteously and hopelessly to a youth that is already gone, because they feel that beyond that, life is nothing but a barren waste, with no hope, no pleasure in it. As a matter of fact, no one can say with cerfainty which is the happiest time of life. It shifts with the individual. There are those who have had golden youths and leaden old ages, while others have had hard and bitter youths and only found how sweet the wine of life can be as they drained the last drop in the cup. There is one glory of the moon and another glory of the stars, and every varying phase of life brings its own particular enjoyments, < cm'rlum.v youth has its pleasures, that are all the keener because they are new and untried. The show is great because it is the first one has ever seen. Every girl is a houri, every boy a sheik. There is romance in every situation. One's feet are strong and never tire in the dance. One’s appetites are avid and unsated. It is & swell party while it lasts, and the young make the most of 1t because they know it will soon be over and they think the balance 1s cinders, ashes and dust. All of us older ones can remember when we looked with sympathy at decrepit old men and women of 30 and wondered why they wanted to live on in & World in which they could find no possible amusement or interest, and we hoped that we would die around 25 so as to be spared that tragic fate. BUT. surprisingly, when we got into our thirties, we discovered that we had just begun to enjoy ourselves and get a real kick out of living. We looked back upon the diversions of our adolescent days as ‘we do upon the glee of a baby at having a rattle shaken before it and smile to think they could ever have amused us. The silly little parties. ‘The giggling girls. The calf love. ‘The dispair when father wouldn’t let us have the car. The heartbreak over trifles that didn’t matter, How puerile! At middle age we are really living. Our passions are at high tide and make the emotions of youth as water is to wine. ‘We know the flerce joy of struggle, of attainment, of victory. Our heads are filled with ambitions and plans. Our hands full of work. Our families are close to use as they never were before, as they will never be again. Never a dull moment when you begin reaping the harvest that you have sown in labor and sweat. Plenty of excitement when you sit in the big game of business. Plenty of thrills in getting John off to college and planning Mary’s debut. LIP'E is full and running over with pleasure when we are middle- aged. What we dread are the lean 50s when, if we are women, we will have lost our looks and our allure, and no man will look at us save with kindness and compassion, and when, if we are men, our doctors will tell us that we are not so young as we were and we must slack down in our work and cut down our golf games and take things easy. Pretty dull and boresome prospect, thatl Come the 50s, as the movies say, and we find that all the balance was just & preparation for this. It has taken us 50 years to learn how to get real enjoyment out of life and to acquire a philosophy that enables us to meet whatever comes with a calm and equable mind, ‘We have accepted our fates and no longer complain, IP WE have won the prize we struggled for, well and good. If we have failed to win it, also well and good. We look at it with an uncovetous eye and reflect that the golden apple generally turns out to be brass after all. Also, in our 50s we attain the domestic millen- nium if we ever reach it. Our hearts are no longer torn with jealousies. Above all, we have become connoisseurs of life and know how to savor its pleasures. spread table. Boys and girls are like starving men at a well- They wolf down every pleasure without even tasting it. All they ask for is more and more until they are glutted, and they care not whether what they devour is fine or coarse, good or bad. UT when men and women in their 50s sit down to the banquet of life they are gourmets who appreciate the rarity of every dish, the artistry of its preparation, the perfection of its service, the vintage of its wines. They roll every morsel of pleasure on their tongues and get every subtle nuance of enjoyment out of it. But even they shiver when they think of the bleakness of the age when we grow weak and feeble, when we must eat for our digestions instead of our palates, when all the toys with which we have played are broken and when the active Joys of life become to us like a half-remembered dream. But when we come to old age we find that there is no pleasanter hour in all the day than the twilight when we sit with folded hands, - our tasks done, and watch-the sin go down. Why, then, since each. phase of life has its own particular joy, should we so dread the passing of the years?” DORQTHY DIX. (Copyright, 1934.) Bedtime Stories BY THORNTON W. BURGESS. A Wish Comes True. Good wishing does no harm to you, And now and then a wish comes true. —Nanny Meadow Mouse. OST people are given to wish- ing at times. And why not; s0 long as such wishing is good wishing? It does no one any harm and it gives one pleasant thoughts. Of course, you don’t really expect your wishes to come true, but now and then one does. Your wishing, no matter how great it is, may not and probably does oot have anything to do with bringing it to pass, but you will always have the feeling that it may have had. In a jug laying on its side under a ragged old coat in a fence-corner of Farmer Brown’s cornfield was as snug a home as ever any Meadow Mouse had. It was the home of Danny and Nanny Meadow Mouse. Nanny was the one who had discovered that jug, and when she had led Danny to it he hzd been as sure as was she that it was the safest home they ever had had. ‘Then Farmer Brown’s Boy had come along and picked up the jug. When he discovered that there was a home in it he had carefully replaced it just as he had found it and again covered it with the old coat. But Danny had had such a fright that he had refused to live there any longer and had started off. Nanny had refused to leave and at last Danny had returned. As Farmer Brown's Boy did not re- turn, Danny soon got over his fright and agreed that Nanny was right in staying. As yet no one else had discovered where they were living, but they knew that it was merely a matter of time before Reddy Fox or Mrs. Reddy, Black Pussy og Jimmy Skunk or perhaps Shadow the Weasel would come poking around in that fence-corner and per- haps find that they were living there, The Debunker BY JOHN HARVEY FURBAY, Ph.D. HISTORY I alike.

But it would be so much better if no one found out that they were living there. Then they could go and come without danger or worry. Not far from the old coat was a ridge in the ground. It had been made by Miner the Mole dfgging his tunnel just below the surface and pushing the roof up to make that ridge. It had been made some time before and there had been no signs of Miner since Danny and Nanny had come there to live. “I wish,” said Nanny one evening as they passed close to this ridge, “that Miner the Mole would come back here before cold weather freezes the d.r nd. “Why?” demanded Danny. “What do you want with that fellow?

How any one Who has used the tunnels of Miner as many times as you have can say that he is useless is more than I can understand.” “I had forgotten those tunnels,” con- fessed Danny. “They had slipped my mind entirely.

Still I don’t see any good reason for wishing his return before frost.” “You wouldn’t,” replied Nanny. “Well, if you have a good reason, what it is?” demanded Danny. “Because if he should come back he thing in which we live,” replied Nanny. “What if he did?” asked Danny. “Are you really stupid or just pre- to be?” demanded Nanny not stupid, I'm not pretending and I still don’t see what you that fellow tunneling around our for,” retorted Danny, quite as had come true—Miner the Mole had returned.

They are found crowded to- gether in a dense spike on the tip of a stout, fleshy stem, which is often height.
