but when it comes to cane for syrup
making, any old thing that
looks like it might have an ounce of
juice is picked up and brought TO
us and then they wonder why their
syrup is not as nice as what our
own cane makes. The fact is, we
throw away better cane than some
bring to be worked up.
Rally Day." you've all heard Of
that, but we're going to have
rally days." that is, more than
one. 1t came about this way: Sun
day, Oct 4 was the time set, but as
so many desired to go to Mrs. Dyes
funeral at Caldwell, change
was made in the arrangements.
Next Sunday, Oct. IS. part of the
program will be given and then on
the following Sunday, Oct. Is, the
rest of it will be given. On this
latter occasion the Pandora
mems quartet will be present, and
no doubt they will fill in the
major part of the program. This
talented Christian organization does
broadcasting, and they are so well
and favorably known that farther
introduction is unnecessary.
The musical and literary talent
of the community has been mus
tered out and is being drilled for
the farmers institute, Nov. 2-3,
which promises to be one of un-
usual interest.

would laugh too.

The Bidding


 South, the dealer. opened the con- tracting with one club. West put in q defensive one heart bid. North bid one no trump to show the heart suit stopped. East passed, South then Jumped the bid to three spades. This is a forcing bid and requires partner to keep the bidding open. Forth took the declaration to four spades, which South immediately carried 10 six spades.
 The Play
 West opened the six spot. his fourth best heart, dummy played small, East the eight. and If the de- cIarer makes the mistake of win ning the trick with the nine, the grand slam cannot be made. The fine must be reserved so that the ace, jack finesse can be taken after the squeeze Is put on West. The win ming of the trick with the nine would exemplify careless play. The dcclarer in this case won 1t with the queen.
 The ace and king of clubs are then led by the declarer and the three clubs ruffed with small spade. The declarer cannot ruff the fourth club--otherwise he cannot get back into lis hand. therefore the king of spades is led from dummy. followed with a small spade which the declarer wins with the queen. West discardins the deuce of hearts. The declarer now plays four rounds Q. spades. On the first two rounds. West discards the jack and queen of diamonds, On the third discard he Is squeezed. If he drops the club and a heart, the declarer's nine of clubs will be good and the three hearts. If West were to discard di- amond. the deciarer would again squeeze the hand with the king of diamonds.
