The Bidding: South bids one heart
and all pass.
Deciding the Play: West leads I Of
clubs, East taking the first trick with
Ace of clubs after which Jack OF
clubs is played and Declarer takes
with the King Of clubs. How should
Declarer plan his campaign?
The Error: Declarer draws two
rounds Of trumps and then leads 3
Of clubs finessing Queen Of spades.
The Correct Method: Declarer
draws two rounds Of trumps exhaust
ing opponents Of them. Declarer now
requires seven more tricks for game.
He is assured Of three more heart
tricks, two diamond tricks and one
spade trick. II one Of the illnesses
works. game Is assured. II both fail
game IS lost. This can be avoided by
throwing the lead to East and making
his lead up to Dummy. Declarer
plays diamond and takes with King
OF diamonds The last club in
Dummy is then played and ruffed BY,
Declarer. who follows with 3 Of spades
and covers with . Of spades, throwing
the lead to East. No matter what
card East leads. game Il assured.
The Principle: Avoid fineans
when you can force opponents 70 leeA
up 70 your tenace suit.

YOUR
CHILDREN
J. Nir R6erzs Barton
o92e By MA Serv;ce.Ina

The question of promises has come
up. Is 1t right or wrong to compel
child to make promise?
Now, believe that the first re-
action of thoughtful people to this
question will be that it is wrong. If
We are going to live by the new doc
trine of allowing child greater IL
berty of action and freedom Of choice,
why make an inconsistent reserva-
tion?
It would seem. according to this
argument. to strike at the very root
Of initiative and self-confidence. A
promise is wall, prison, a ball
nd-chain! ITO compel q child to
make PROMISE" say some Of the new
behaviorists, lis like compelling a
man to buy an article for which he
may not be able to pay"
If q child makes a promise VOL

will that he intends to do something

they remind us.
"And furthermore, If we impose
our wills on a child's will by the
moral binder Of a promise, he be.
comes a double offender If he fails,
not only in the act itself, but by
breaking faith with his parents. An
unfair position!"
Promises Overdone
I agree very heartily with this
argument. think children are
promised" to death. Promise me,
John! Promise me, Mary!" It is a
confession of weakness somewhere. It
is like building poor wall and then
trying to tie together its weak places
II John and Mary were brought up
on right ideas, all other things being
equal, there would be little need for
promises.
But here, as in other ethical ques-
tions. there Is no black and white
no "yes" and mo-" We cannot draw
a decided line. It would be foolish
to say fatty. There should be abso-
lutely no promises where children are
concerned" We must remember that
children grow up.
If there was no such a thing as
a promise. the world couldn't run.
Children should know what 1t

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Pv0Prhea

Question: June M. asks: would
pyorrhea cause redness and twitching
Of the eyes and numbness Of the nose?
Is there any cure for pyorrhea with
out having the teeth extracted?"
Answer: The poisoning from
py0rrhea may produce the symptoms
you have described. It is possible to
bring about q complete cure of
pyorrhea at certain stages, but you
must 60 to dentist who Is q spe-
cialist in this line Of treatment and
who will treat the teeth and gums
for over period Of several months.
At the same time your diet must be
well balanced to avoid acidosis and
over-acidity Of the stomach, which Is
doubtless a fundamental cause in
addition to the pyorrhea infection.

The mummy Of King Solomon's S
favorite wife has been found, they
say. Mott Harris, who died in the seth
year Of Solomon's reign, is said to
have been discovered in all j,er regal
trappings in tomb more magnifi-
cent than that of King Tut. Tie Lody
wrapped In richest cloth of gold, stud
ded with jewels, with crown Oh her
head and priceless jewels on her
fingers is said to be accompanied by
q parchment scroll in King Solomon's
own handwriting in which he relates
his wife's many virtues and tells the
story of how she sacrificed her life
for his. drinking poisoned wine meant
for him.
OTHER BELOVED WIVES
Scattered over the countryside in a
multitude Of grass-grown, stone
crumbled cemeteries are an infinite
host Of the graves of wives lauded in
death by their husbands. Epitahs
which read MY Beloved Wife" are as
numerous as the myrtle vines which
make glossy the graves. And small
town gossip knows that the bigger the
tstone and the more deeply carved
the euology Of appreciation and af-
fection, the more remorse goes into
It.
It would lie interesting to know just
how King Solomon regarded his Mott
