Washington.-R-Th The president,
| Mrs. Hoover and their family turn to
natural remedies when ill, both by In
clination and by advice of the White
House physician.
The quiet of the presidents camp in
the Blue Ridge mountains has min
istered to the health of Mrs. Hoover
and Allan. It is now serving as a sani-
tarium retreat for Herbert, the older
son. who has contracted a tubercular
infection.

physician, believes that the high al
titude OF the mountain camp, coupled
with its complete isolation from noise
and confusion, will help effect a cure
for him just as for his mother and
brother.
Cool green lanes, long shadows pur-
pling the distant slopes, are a COM
plete contract to the steady string of
automobiles which madly circles the
White House night and day.
The president "builded better than
he knew" when he erected this wood

lay down the ace of diamonds and

West should continue with the dia-

plays small, East wins the trick with
the jack and then leads the king of
diamonds, which holds the trick. His
next lead is the king of spades,
which the declarer trumps. The de-
claref has the rest of the tricks.
If West were to have opened
spades, the declarer would have
trumped the first round, swung two
rounds Of trump, picking up his OPP
ponents' trump and then started his
club suit. On the fifth club a dia-
mond would have been discarded in

West has defeated the declarer's con-
tract one trick.

A little excitement was caused at

some of the children noticed a smoky
odor as of burning wood. A hurried
search did not reveal the source of the
disturbance but proved that it must
be somewhere in the building. While

search a call was sent for MIR. Poole,
as the janitor could not be located.
Before MI. Poole arrived the fire was
discovered in an ash Ia in the fur
nac room where some one had
thrown some waste paper on top of
the ashes. Even had the fire not
been discovered 1t could have done no
harm but it caused enough of a scare
to be a good lesson in safety and fire
prevention.
