QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Q. Why mag a player bid with a
weaker holding on the second round
than on the first?
A. For an original bid. a player
should hold an Ace or King at head Of
the suit bid, as Third Hand may want
to change the bid and must be able to
know the strength Of the suit his part
ner has bid as an initial free or VOL
untary bid: but after a pass a bid may
be made from length instead Of from
strength.

Strength to Length?

able in No-trump. Holding five cards

Good old Isaiah must have had
a glimpse into the age we are
just now entering.
The boil weevil takes a heavy
toll from our chief money crop,
and the pink boil worm is headed
via the same route, for the en-
tire cotton belt, and is said to de-
stroy largely what the weevil
leaves. In a few more decades,
therefore, necessity may force
the South, at least, to fulfill this
prophecy. Indeed, when one
cow and two sheep are kept by
the head of each family, we shall

have better clothing, and the
most perfect food possible. One
that willere long largely elimi-
nate ills and doctor bills, and
more nearly restore mankind to
that physical perfection enjoyed
by Adam.
Never in the worlds history
have cows produced such an
abundance of milk" as to-day
often one COW producing 20 to 80
thousand pounds in one year and
600 to 1900 pounds of butter as
well. Our wooden mills are even
now proposing to make blankets
and clothing for a part of the
farmers wool yield.
Never in the history OF the
South has there been such an
awakening to the importance of
planting Iegurnes for soil i'm
provement and for livestock pro-
duction.
This calls for the Industrious
bee which will largely supply

Our sandhill wastes are already
beginning to blossom as a rose"
and the bee is in demand for
better polarization and produc-
ton of a heavier fruitage of all
agricultural products.
We have always believed with
Isaiah that any hill that is so
steep as to require cultivation by
being "digged with. a mattock"
should be put to pasturage "ot
lesser cattle sheep are well
adapted to hill lands.
Let's not be discouraged if we
fail to interest everybody in our
live-a t-home campaign, but per
sist: Zine upon line, precept upon
precept, here a little, there a lit
tie" until Isaiah's prophecy is
fulfilled. When these things come
to pass, and every family has g
perfect garden, we shall not be
far from the Garden of Eden"

DR.. Long Calls On Club Women
To Assist IN Making High
way Traffic Safe.

CHAUTAUQUA, N. Y, June %
"If every club woman in the Unit
ed States Would confer on herself the
degree of Doctor of Safety traf-
accidents would soon be virtually
done away with" said DIR. John c..
Long, of the National Automobile
Chamber of Commerce, speaking be-
fore the General Federation of Wo-
mems clubs here today
"Most accidents on our highways
are needless" said the speaker. "The
conditions which cause them are
preventable. Twenty-eight cities low
cred their traffic fatality records in
1921. Detroit and st. Louis nearly
halved their previous highway NOR
tally figures. Credit for this de-
crease belongs to local Doctors of
Safety who diagnosed the trouble
and then applied strong remedies to
bring about convalescence.
"The increase of motor vehicles
to the number of 100000 in use
today has come about so rapidly that
we have been staggered by the traf-
fic problem, and have often been led
to handle in panicky manner a con-
dition which will yield to normal
treatment.
1--WE have passed stringent laws,
cried for punishment of the speeder
and demanded that traffic rule vio-
lators be put in Jail. This is all well
enough, but it is not fundamental.
Persons who spread disease should be
quarantined, but that does not nee
essarily stamp out the source of the
imalady.
among the causes of traffic acct
dents are careless driving, children
playing in the streQs, poor parking
accommodations, insufficient play
grounds, bad street lighting, lack of
signs, narrow street limits, made
quate police force, unintelligent traf-
fic regulations.
"1f boy or girl in your commun-
ity is taken i'll, the doctor is called in
and makes his diagnosis. If child
is injured in an automobile accident,
however, someone may be arrested,
but in most communities there will
be no exhaustive examination of why
that accident occurred 'If the club
women of the United States would
confer on themselves the degree of
Doctor of Safety accidents would
soon be virtually done away with.
Any woman's club can make a safety
diagnosis of it's own town, and cure
the accident evil. Make a map of
the city. Place'a white pin at every
point where child accident occurred
during the past year, and blue pin
for every adult accident on the

ATLANTA, June 23.-Now thai
women vote like men, should they
pay the same penalty for crime as
men? Even though the penalty is
hanging?
Georgia hasn't hanged a white
woman but once in its history. That
was so years ago.
Today, however, Mrs. Cora Vim
son is in "the Tower" here under
sentence to go to the gallows on July
%, for the murder of her husband,
DR.. w. D. Vinson. Solicitor General
John A. Boykin, prosecutor, asked
for life sentence. The jury, how
ever, went beyond his request and
voted for death.

interview:

then should woman-sofely on sex

at certain points? Perhaps better
lighting, more signs, and more police
are needed there. Are most of the
pins in the middle of blocks rather
than at intersections? Then a cam
paign to- urge crossing at the cross
ings is needed. Are the child pins
prevalent? Then more attention is
needed in school instruction, in home
training, in local Fairgrounds.
For remedies one may turn to De
troit which has large Fairgrounds,
and elaborate safety instruction in
the schools; to Cleveland, which has
junior patrols to aid the young and
helpless in crossing the street, to Buff
falo, to indianapolis, and to other
cities, where the local schools and
associations will be able to tell what
methods are being used to make their
highways more safe"

Has Opinion Changed?
An interesting question! If it is
true that sentiment toward women is
changing from a chivalrous to man
to-man attitude, defense lawyers in
future woman murder trials may
have to shift their tactics. The old
sympathy pleas and sympathy stage
settings will be relegated to the place
of outworn things in legal practice.

Westinghouse of prohibit

formally at White House conference
between President Harding, the Fed
eral departmental chiefs directly inter-
ested in the subject and governors of
IA States.
There was no statement from the
White. House as to the results of the
meeting, but it was indicated that the
discussion revolved almost entirely
upon the question of how the several
States could best cooperate with the
Federal Government in executing the
terms of the prohibition amendment.
1t was indicated that another meeting
of State executives might be called
early in the coming year at which time
the subject would be canvassed more
thoroughly.
At the White House luncheon, DUR
ing the course of which the views. of
the guests were sought on prohibition
were, in addition to the President:
vice-P President Coolidge, Attorney Gen
eral Daugherty, Secretary Mellon, Pro-
hibition Commissioner Haynes, Gov

Kelvie, Nebraska; Davis, Idaho, and
Campbell, Arizona.
"In many cases." Commissioner
Haynes declared after the meeting,
"the reports Of the governors were
of an encouraging nature. Numer-
GUS instances of lack of cooperation
were pointed out; many instances Of
the inadequacy Of Federal forces were
suggested.
"There was preponderance of an
opinion that an earnest official appeal
for reverence Of the law and cordial
support of law enforcement by the
press would combine to cure the worst
conditions reported"
According to some of those who at
tended there was no suggestion raised
during the three-hour conference
which indicated belief that the situa-
tion might be helped by loosening the
present stringent enforcement statute
To the contrary, it was said the prev
alent opinion seemed to have been
that imposition Of more severe fines
and prison terms on conviction of vio-
lation would assist the enforcement
officials in their work. Other sugges-
tions, all of which were declared later
to have been entirely informal" in
cluded a more careful selection of pro-
hibition personnel. larger appropria-
lions for the Federal Bureau and edu-
cation of the general public to the
necessity of law reverence.

I eminent.

Washington. The recurring spectre
of coal strike is once more lowering
over the American people. April 1,
1923, may see the country plunged
into another strike on the same scale
and with the same demoralizing re-
suits as crippled the industrial re-
sources Of the country for a large
part of the present year.
John Hays Hammond, chairman of
the Fact Finding Committee created
by act of Congress, has just issued
warning Of the danger. Miners and
operators in the bituminous fields are
locked once more and the temporary
truce established few months ago
will inevitably end on April unless
an agreement is reached at the con-
ference scheduled for January 2 in
Chicago.
Chairman Hammond coupled his
warning with a declaration, "The
American people are not going to
stand for another strike" The people,
however, who are now suffering from
shortage of anthracite coal. are leav-
ing the situation to the Coal Com
mission and to the Government. The
former is using its utmost influence
to get the operators and the miners
to agree on wage scale at the COM
ing conference and lacking such an
agreement the only hope of prevent
ing recurrence of what happened
last year is drastic Government
action.
The Commission itself has no
power to intervene between the con-
fiicting elements in the bituminous
fields. It is, however, gathering a
mass of detailed information and al
though it will be months before its
conclusions can be put into the form
of legislative enactment its findings
as to the facts in the industry will be
available for the Government should
it become necessary to act to pre-
vent another emergency.
while the Commission has not
power to intervene between the min
ers and operators or between the op-
orators, Wholesalers, retailers and
consumers" said Chairman Ham
mond, sit is, nevertheless, gathering
important information that will have
a direct bearing on every phase of
the coal industry and will be the
means, we hope, Of adjusting many of
the complicated questions that now
confront the coal problem.

Goshen's weather prophet, expects Is

to the, pld system of reckoning, he
says, we are to get 26 in all, and we

number of SHOWS is governed by the
date on which the first storm appears.
