WOMEN’S Bedtime FEATURES. Stories 1 | Reddy Is Grateful. BY THORNTON W. BURGESS. | Gratitude doth nothing cost: Friends are gained instead of lost Reddy Fox. T COSTS nothing to be grateful for favors done and you never lose friends by showing that you are grateful. On the other hand, lack of gratitude may lose you the friends you already have. Reddy had cause to be grateful to Jimmy Skunk. Indeed, he had cause to be grateful for two things. In the first place, he had sought shelter in an underground house occupied by Jimmy and two of his grown sons, and he had done it without asking permission. He had done it to escape from a Dog who ‘was almost at his heels. Now those Skunks had a perfect right to re- sent that sudden entrance. Also they had a right to resent having that Dog led to the entrance of their home to annoy them by bark- ing ,and trying to dig down afier Reddy Fox. But Jimmy Skunk, wise through experience in the ways of the Great World, knew that Reddy never in | | ‘4 BN = Hiany 51\% i ‘I WASN'T MYSELF.

For this| Reddy had reason to be grateful, end he was. | Then, when Reddy had crawled into a side passage, Jimmy had gone out to meet and greet that Dog, and that Dog had found it anything but | a pleasant meeting and greeting. In fact, he had found it so unpleas- ant that he had started for home, whimpering and whining and stop- ping every now and then to rub his| face on the ground. He had started for home, but he was very, very doubtful if he would be admitted when he got there, and vainly he wished he had not been so hasty. Jimmy watched him go and| grinned. “I think,” said he to him- self, “that that fellow will be a Jittle more careful what he does the next time he meets one of my fam- ily. Now I can go back and sleep in comfort, I guess.” | He turned and made his way down toward the bed room. As he was opposite the pasage into which Reddy had crawled, a muffled voice said: “Thanks a lot.” “What for?” demanded Jimmy | somewhat gruffly. “For letting me stay in here and ngtract BY P. HAL SIMS. i Mr. Sims is universally acclaimed | the greatest living contract and auc- tion player. He was captain of the re- nowned “Four Horsemen” team, mow disbanded, and has won 24 mational championships since 1924. These arti- rles are based on the Sims system, which includes the one-over-one prin- ciple which the Sims group of play- ers was the first to employ and de- velop. | Bidding in Relation to Play. | F PARTNERS bid back and forth in a closed, soundproof booth, and then emerged tri- umphantly at the end of the auction to vouchsafe the informa-| tion that the final contract was five diamonds by South, the opponents might just as well give up the privi- Jege of the opening lead. It would robably be more detrimental than Ipful. 1t is important not to deceive wour partner during the course of the bidding, and if your rigid ad- herence to certain conventions pat- terns your hand for the opponents, that is unfortunate.

In all probability, East holds at least five hearts, since there can be only two impertant honors at the top of the suit. East might be bidding on K-Q-x-x or K-J-x-x. North does not reach a final conclusion, but retains an open mind. 2. The diamond bid seems to sirengthen the idea of a five-five distributional pattern. Presumably, had East held more diamonds than . hearts, she would have bid them first, since both takeouts must be made at the two level. 3. West supports hearts. That places him with one honor, and clinches five hearts in East’s hand, gince her hearts, at best, are headed by Q, J. Moreover, West, who ap- pears willing to play the hand in hearts on the strength of one heart bid by East, should hold three. Yhat accounts for eight cards in the suit, North holds four. South should hold a singleton. In other words, against six spades, the opening lead of the ace and another heart is fairly well indicated. North opened the seven of clubs ~—the fourth best of her longest and strongest suit. The slam was . made. . Mr. Sims }' eontract that East. 2 Ht, (1) 4Di. @) Sp.

But that's all right. I don't bear you any ill will for that. I would do the same were I in your place. It is the law of life. But it also is the law that in common dan- ger there shall be a truce. You‘ know that.” “Yes,” agreed Reddy. “I know that. But this wasn’t exactly a case of common danger. You didn't have anything to fear from that Dog.” “True,” replied Jimmy, “but he was a common enemy, just the same. How does it happen that you came here for shelter, instead of seeking it in your own home?” “I couldn’t go there. There are ~Of course you couldn't,” replied “I couldn't imagine you doing such a thing. But how does to you?” “I wasn't myself.

I'm go- ing back to sleep,” said Jimmy. “And I'll get out just as soon as 1| can, and thank you for letting me stay,” replied Reddy. “Better wait until after dark be- fore you leave,” said Jimmy, and went on down. | (Copyright. 1935) - .

Markinlay McXKinley 'I‘H)S distinguished family hailed from Scotland. The earliest | home of the Mackinlays was in the Lennox district of Scotland, where they are found in goodly numbers today. They derive their name from one of their leaders, called “Finlay.” Like so many of the Lennox clans, some of the Mackin- lays went to Ireland during the period of the “plantations” and from there emigrated to America. Some of these Mackinlays, or Mec- Kinleys, known as the Ulster-Scots, who came over from Ireland, set- tled in Pennsylvania and Delaware. One of the royal Governors of Del- aware was John McKinley. The ancestor of William McKinley, one- time President of the United States, was David McKinley, who was born in Ulster, about 1730, married Ra- chel Stewart (daughter of Robert Stewart) and emigrated to Chance- ford, York County, Pa. From there the McKinleys moved to Ohio, where the future President was born in 1843. The family {0 which this coat of arms is ascribed came directly from Argyllshire, Scotland. 1t was first represented in this country by James Mackinley, born in Camp- belltown in 1807, the son of Archi- bald Mackinlay of Argylishire. He came to America in 1829, lived for a time in New Orleans, and from there moved to Chicago. Later, he settled in Cincinnati, Ohio, where, in 1893, he died. Robert Lang Mc- Kinlay, a lawyer and stateman of Paris, 111, is a descendant of this founder. 1Copyright. 1936 ) Péyéfiology BY DR. JESSE W. SPROWLS. Intelligence. OR the last 30 years, science has | been sticking to the theory that anything that exists must exist in i quantity. Physics is thus the pace- setting science among the various branches of science. Psychologists are now convinced | that there must be some way to measure the presence or absence of intelligence among human beings. Some have tried to make compari- sons among animals and also be- tween animals and man. The results of all this research are still fragmentary. The trouble seems to have been this: No very good definition of intelligence has been agreed to for comparative purposes. For example, some per- sons are said to be intelligent to the extent that they are able to learn. The amount that you may learn in a given time, under given condi- tions, is thus your mark on the measuring stick of mind. Others hold that action rather than acquisition is the key to the amount of intelligence one may possess. In other words, what you do with what you know determines your intelligence. Questions of definition must, it seems, first be settled. At least for a working basis. ' Then we may hope one day to measure intelli- gence with some accuracy. (Copyright. 1935.) WEDNESDAY, Nature’s gfldren Home of American Redstart. (Setophaga Ruticilla.) ., BY LILLIAN COX ATHEY. N THE Spring, when the wood- lands have such a fresh, damp- ish odor and every shade of green is all about you, you may catch a glimpse of red and black darting across your path. 1t is the beautiful wood warbler, known from North Carolina north- ward and throughout the Eastern States as the American redstart. You can see what a clever archi- tect she is. Later, you are wel- come, as far as she is concerned, to add the nursery she so loving built to your collection. Bird mothers, as a rule, are most fastidious about their children being born in a new home. The cup-shaped cradle is about 2 inches wide inside and 1 inch deep. Fine grasses and a silver-colored vegetable fiber, plant down, and thin strips of bark are used for the outside walls. Hair and finer grasses make the inner walls. There are from three to five whitish eggs, blotched and spotted with reddish- brown at the larger end. The mother’s colors blend well with her surroundings, and you may see her sitting on her nest and pass her by. The greenish gray coat and gray head and a subdued olive brown and yellow are not conspicuous. Of course, that keeps her from many prowling enemies. Her husband is gaily bedecked in orange and black. This is his wed- ding suit. In the Autumn his glossy black has turned to a rusty color, and the bright salmon on the sides ! of his body are yellow. All day the brilliantly-clad fel- low is on the wing: wily insect or snapping up a husky caterpillar ambling over a tree. Sometimes, as this seems to be when he is resting a bit, he sits on | a tree branch with a pensive look, jas if a little meditation is going on. | His feathers are fluffed and his wings droop. He straightens up and spreads his lovely tail fanwise. Suddenly, a hurrying insect races by, and redstart comes to life with a jerk and is after the plump flyer. You can easily identify the red- starts by the way they open and |close their tails, fan-fashion, and | show patches of orange with the broad band of black across the end. Seldom will you see the redstarts on the ground. They prefer to hunt among the leaves and over the tree bark, as do the creepers. Listen for the sweet song in early May. “T’see, t'see” repeated 12 times, sometimes more or less, to the minute.

Spooning—that is, exhibiting af- fection foolishly—is a corruption of the word spoom, which, in tura, is meaning to froth or to foam. Originally, spooning was the term applied to a boat, which, endeavore ing to weather a heavy gale, was compelled to go before the strong wind, to ride out the effervescent sea. Metaphorically, then, the term | came to be applied to people who, under the sway of their ebullient | emotions, gave them vent regardless of decorum. . - Hot Milk. 1f for the sake of economy, yon must use milk instead of cream with over the bananas and set in the ice-|derived from the Lalin spumare,| your coffee and cereals, s*ald it first , and serve it piping hot.
