COTTON DOING WELL
IN THREE COUNTIES
Outlook in Coosa, Chiffon
and Autauga Promising
for Good Crop

Mountain Creek. June 1S.-( (Special)-A
painstaking, careful and want-to find-out
talk with number of farmers and cot
ton growers in Chiffon, Autauga and
Coosa counties is convincing as to the
future, as it looks now, of The cotton crop.
That the cool nights, which lasted for a
week or more. has retarded the growth of
cotton is a fact But that fact does. not
indicate a shortage in the section men,
toned for this season. AS much. so far
as acreage is concerned, has been plant
ed, and is today in good fix. 1t is true
that the cool weather has had a tendency
10 increase lice on cotton" but that in
crease has not. so far, been so much as
to decrease the yield to any extent that
would curtail the yield very much.
Then as to "blackroot." there is some
i'll this section, but that is only here and
there. and not general. even in neighbor-
hoods where it has appeared. In single
sentence: Cotton is doing fine in the coun-
ties mentioned.
As to corn, the plain facts are that more
acres than in former years have been de-
voted to this crop, and corn, like cotton
here, is growing fast and looks well.

VARIOUS POSSIBLE DEFENcEs.

II is thus TO be seen that a successful
defence hinged upon number of condi-
tions. which admitted Of widely divergent
views OF proper play.
Had North raised the partnership heart
declaration to four II would have been the
probable means OF boosting the opponents
royal declaration to a like figure, in view
Of their indicated optimism. Besides the
saving OF game, North and South would
have reaped an overtime score OF 100
points, the increased penalty as a result
Of free double naturally following
The failure Of the opposition i'm this
case must be laid on North's shoulders.
Although his partners bid was secondary,
he should have viewed it as one orlsinat-
ing from a hand OF sufficient promise of
strength that. combined with his own
hand, permitted an attacking declaration
North's length in the declared suit, in
dicating little trump opposition. made the
partnership declaration at reasonable fig
ure more desirable than even a free
double Of the opponents declaration.
Although North's actual winners lin
tied the opponents possibilities in high
contract making. he should have viewed
the partnership declaration as Of aggres-
sive type yielding only to the opposition
at contract beyond their power.
The sit tight situation on hands at
critical stages presents the corollary to
the problem Of the former hand.
II is always a close question: and the
general tendency OF the ordinary player
is 10 abandon a secure defence at the
adversaries' bid for a doubtful offensive
position.

Score: Love all. second game. North
and South one game in.
South declared one no trump, and West
overcalled with two hearts. Though OPP
posed to no-trump strength. his hand in
make up gave promise of good results at
the suit declaration. while it's weakness
in the minor valued suits promised little
opposition at the adverse no-trump dec
laration.
North declared two royals Even those
players most optimistically inclined, who
rarely take their partner out of the high
est valued make, could find no serious
fault in North's action, considering Vests
overcall.
East supported his partner. declaring
three hearts South now switched to his
partners suit, making a declaration of
three royals. This, of course. was passed
by West. but East. with sufficient strength
to warrant further partnership declara-
ton, made 1t four hearts. South doubled
and this ended the bidding.
North opened with low spade, which
was ruffed In dummy. A low club put
West in with the ace. and another spade
followed, again rufiing dummy. Another
club from dummy put South In with the

NOTE OF ST. THOMAS'S

his energies. in his own peculiar way. to
the church. making its Easter and Christ

Warren organized a mixed choir al the
outset and maintained IL to the end OF his
long term Of service. 1t was voluntary
