INDIANS AND THEIR BLANKETS

Of the 83,262 Indian school children
in the United States 67,287 attended
school of some kind during the
past year The recent report of the
United States Indian Commissioner
indicates that the Indians do very
well with school problems; but there
is a suggestion in the report that the
matter of suitable employment of the
Indians after leaving the school is
still an unsolved problem. There is
an old belief that the Indian likes to
return to his blankets" and doubt
less many of them still go back to the
primitive ways of their people. The
Indian Service has never had a de-
veloped and systematic organization
to help the young Indian to find en-
ployment, or an occupation, during
the critical period after he leaves
school when he should take up the af-
fairs of life for himself. "Unless the
young Indian or woman be placed in
and become adjusted to an occupation
adapted to his interest and abilities,
then the whole scheme of education
and civilization fails" says the gov
eminent report.

WHAT'S THE HURRY?

Changing social customs in the I'm
tied States constantly result from the
and introduction of more
scientific machinery. The increase of
rs per cent in the number of students
in junior colleges has been pointed
to as an indication of the desire of
young people to equip themselves to
meet the highly competitive social
and industrial conditions that obtain
throughout the nation as
Strangely enough the total enroll
ments in colleges in the United States
have shown decrease in recent years
and this indicates that college stu
dents are stopping short of obtaining
higher education and are content
to obtain specialized scientific know
ledge that they can turn into quick
dollars in business, or in a profess
sional way.
Doctor William John Cooper, com
missioner of education of the United
States, believes that new customs and
machinery production are crowding
out the traditions of education.
Evidently humanity is in a hurry
to obtain its education, just as it is
IN a hurry to do everything else in
life.

WILD GAME PROBLEMS

To maintain and increase the avail
able supply Of wild game for the T.
100000 licensed hunters of the I'm
tied States is constantly increasing
problem for Federal and state offic-
ials. Two hundred delegates to the
recent American Game Conference
from thirty-four states, Alaska, Can
ada and Hawaii discussed the prob
lem.
1t was brought out at the confer
ence that American sportsmen an
nually spend not less than $150,000,-
900 for firearms, ammunition, equip
ment, guides, transportation and
other items Incidental to the enjoy
ment of the shooting sport. Another
S10,000,000 is paid for hunting licens-
es.
The conference was told that APP
proxinately 25,000,0O0 acres of land
have been set aside as refugees for
wild life. Of the total acreage, g.
100000 acres are state owned, TO-
100000 are leased, 10,5O0,00O are fed
eral lands and 100000 are unclassif-
led.
Reporting on the results of a game
survey he is directing Aldo Leopold
called attention to the fact that 10O,-
100000 acres Of land in the central
states do not at present contain sup
lily of rabbits, quail, prairie chickens,
pheasants and Hungarian partidges.
The solution of the problem, it was
pointed out, is more cover; not less
shooting.
Closer and more efficient cooper
alton is now apparent among the var
ious agencies concerned with game
increase; information is more widely
disseminated than ever and the pub
lie as whole is more interested in
protecting game. However, popula-
ton is increasing; farming is more
scientific and intensive and economic
conditions are operating to limit the

least one ace; but the question is,
which ace is it most likely to be1 1t
certainly isn't the trump ace for Y and
Z must, one or the other, have this
card to justify their bid. If they haven't.
the contract is defeated SO why bother1
The real question then is, which Of
the remaining three aces does B hold1
In bidding for Is tricks Y and z an
nounced very clearly that they have
ali OF the hearts and a long set-up suit.
VI their short suits, they should be
either void suits or singletons = aces
or otherwise. In other words, their los
ing tricks, if they have any, must be
IN their short suits. For that reason, the
singleton club should not be led for the
club suit is probably their long set-up
suit.
This elimination reduces the ques-
ton to choice between diamonds and
spades, and the fact that the spade
suit is the longer should decide the
question in favor of a spade lead. AS
spade length makes it almost certain
that either Y or z, or perhaps both, is
short of that suit and taking a chance
that the partner has the ace. With any
suit OF two or more, either Y or Z must
have the ace. For those very good
reasons the proper lead with the fore
going hand is the seven of spades. As
matter of fact, the spade lead saved
contract and was made by a player
who afterwards gave his reason for the
lead somewhat as above. 1t is good
hand and should give Auction and Con-
tract players alike some good ideas as
toproper leads and the reasons for them.

hand. The fact, however, that A has
the club suit would seem to indicate
that rs side strength if he has any,
land his bid of six would so indicated,
must be in the diamond suit; therefore
a lead of that suit should be avoided.
Suppose that rs void suit is clubs.
should A lead that suitl The answer to
this question should also be in the
negative. If z should trump clubs it
would thus enable him to obtain the
lead and use any trumps that Y may
have to trump the spades.
Having eliminated the possible suit
leads, the only one remaining is a
trump lead. Can such a lead do any
harm and, if not, can it possibly gain
trickf A trump lead should not do any
harm for A and B have the spade suit
and A has the club suit, therefore the
only suit that may make is the dia-
mond suit. There is no real danger of
that, however, for BIS bid of four
spades certainly should indicate at
least one trick in diamonds. On the
other hand, can the trump lead possibly
gain trick2 The answer to that ques-
ton is YES. If US hand contains a
void spade suit, the trump lead may
prevent ruff by Y.
The foregoing analysis should prove
conclusively, therefore, that AS proper
lead with the foregoing hand should
be the eight of hearts. The following
are the hands held by all four players,

WILD TURKEYS COMING BACK

From various parts of the country
for the last few years there have
come reports that the wild turkey,
almost extinct except in thickly
wooded mountainous and inaccessible
regions, is becoming more numerous,
and is even venturing nearer the set
Elements than has been its habit.
One of these birds, shot near the
Presidents Summer Camp in Virgin
la, was sent to the White House by
one of President Hoover's neighbors
on the Rapidan at Thanksgiving.
The apparent comeback of the wild
turkey, after being almost extinct, is
the cause of much interest on the
part of nature lovers and sportsmen.

CHRISTMAS

To us no season of the year awak-
ems so much of tenderness and fellow
feeling towards all humanity as
Christmas. It is not only time of
well wishing, but kindly doing, with
a vein of sympathy that would turn
no one away empty, without no ten
der greeting, no act of kindness, no
word of love that might contribute
to another's happiness. No sacrifice
seems too great that we night not
bless one another-no yielding up of
self too trying that we might smooth
some life, no trial of patience too
great that we might not bear and for
bear with a spirit vexed with many
things. An aprreciatiye Christmas
will rule the baseness, rudeness,
roughness out of any life. Christ
mas is the time of love. Peace and
good will is spoken of it. Hatred,
envy and malice can have no Christ
mas. Greed and selfishness are en-
tirely foreign to the day. I'll will
knows nothing about it. Harsh, I'M
kind words take the spirit out of the
occasion. If Christmas means any,
thing it is day of good things, grac-
ious deeds, generous impulses, noble
aspirations, helpfulness, gladness,
brightness, buoyance, the shadows
fleeing away and the sunlight stream
ing in and thus we make,
The Merry Christmas ring
And drive away our fear;
AS it arrives we brighten lives
And fill them full of cheer.
December 25 is just one day set
aside out of the 365 Indifferent ones
for joyousness, and if you cannot
find something to bring home the
spirit to you, it seems rather probable
that it is largely your own fault.
The Christmas spirit has been star
ing out of every nook and corner fol
the past two weeks. 1t isn't just in
the store windows, although they are
gay and Chirstmasy enough to make
anyone feel happy-rather it is il
the people themselves, in sort Of
goodfellowship with everyone.
If in the course of the whole yeal
there is one time when one should
be permitted an unadulterated dose
of fun and happiness, Christmas is
the day for it, and the honoring Of
the festival rests largely with tht
individual.
We are glad it is ours once more tt
greet our readers with bright ant

may be spades, diamonds or clubs.
The fact that B has bid four spades
and that A has tour should indicate
that either z or Y is very liable to be
void of the suit. For that reason spades
should not be led. If diamonds are rs
void suit, diamond lead would be all
right as it would enable A to lead
through the diamond strength in VS.

THI, PLAIN ONE,
By Alice Judson Pcalc

X gentle and charming woman. who at 50 retains that dcllCdCy Of feature and trimncss which is only
 given to those who in their youth were extremely pretty, told me with genuine emotion that she knew she always had been plain.
 She recalled with distressing Clar- ity how when she was a little girl, her mothers callers would smooth
 sister Emmaline's silky curls. com ment on what was then called an aabastar skin, and tease her sister
 Edith about the dmple in her chin. Then they would inevitably remark at some point in the conversation, "Emmaline and Edith certainly will be a pair of beauties some day. And. perhaps seeing the unhappy expression on her own small face, would add, Never mind dear. you'll be sweet, too."
 On such occasions her mother would draw a protective arm about her shoulders, saying "She's moth
 CTS own girl. and shes going to b" mothers helper. You've no idea how capable she is about the house."
 Tine little girl played the part for
 which she hal been cast. She de-
