FATIGUE MAY CAUSE
 COMMON COLD System is More Susceptible to Infection When One
 is Exhausted


 Nearly every cold that is suffered got it's start when the afflicted was tired out" A fatigued person is easily chilled, and when this condi- tion occurs the sneeze and sore throat make their appearance.
 Since most every one experiences fatigue in mid or late afternoon, it is wise to overcome this condition by eating or drinking something sweet. Candy, cookies, sweetened beverages and ice cream are quickly digested, and the energy in the sugar is ready at once to restore vigor. For children, a slice of bread and butter sprinkled with sugar is an appropriate pickup" In these winter days. the impor- tance of diet in relation to the re- sistance of the system should not be overlooked. The person who eats wide variety of wholesome food fortifes himself against disease. Good food promotes good health. The Sugar Institute.

l New York, April 7.-The sales
 promotion division of the National Retail Dry Goods association is the latest of the several national adver- Using groups to join the forces of the Advertising Federation of Amer ica meeting in convention at the Hotel Pennsylvania. New York, June l14-1S
 In an announcement just issued by Kenneth Collins, chairman of the
 division, and vice-president of R. H
 Macy company, New York, MT Collins says:
 The directors of the sales promo tion division have voted in favor Of holding our annual meeting i'll con
 Junction with the Advertising Fed- eration of America convention in June. This is particularly happy upion. Undoubtedly there Is much to learn from contact with men rep resenting all phases of advertising in this general convention. There is a real advantage also in having na- tional advertisers learn more about our specific problems.
 Discussions of mutual problems of both fields will without question disclose deeper significance and
 bring about wider knowledge of |al1 elements of distribution-w which will be of great value in our own work. Then, too, aside from these general sessions, the sales promotion division will have three or four lab- oratory sessions of it's own--in which concrete and tangible promo tional ideas and procedures will be discussed. At these sessions, the retail promotional ideas and proce- dures will be discussed. At these sessions, the retail advertiser can rest assured that there will be a dearth of subjects dealing in gener- |alities. Program plans are now in preparation, with one underlying idea of presenting to our members valuable and practical information on subjects of widest interest" Gilbert T. Hodges, president of the Federation and a member of the ex- fecutive board of The Sun. New York, in a statement issued from Fedora tion headquarters in New York; lsayS

The Bidding
 At auction, the bidding would be South one diamond, West pass. North one heart, East two clubs. South two diamonds, West three clubs, North three hearts. all pass.
 At contract South would open with one diamond, West pass. In the straight forcing system, North would bid two hearts. The writer uses the one over one as forcing bid, but as this hand contains at least five hearts and two and one- half quick tricks. two hearts would be bid. West might risk three clubs due to his 100 honors, South would go to three diamonds. West would be justified in taking his partner to four clubs, North would go to four hearts which would close the con- tracing.
 The Play
 East has the opening lead and his proper play is the king of clubs, West plays the nine and declarer the three. East continues with the ace of clubs. West plays the eight showing control of the club suit on the. next lead. East follows with the jack, West covering with the queen, North. the declarer, trump ing with the deuce of hearts.
 
 winning in the dummy with the jack. and returns a small heart. When West plays small. declarer illnesses the ten spot which holds the trick. The nine spot falling from the East hand. warns the declarer that West may hold the ace. queen and small heart, therefore, the declarer swings the ace of spades and then the queen, overtaking in the dummy with the king.
 A small heart is returned from dummy. West playing the six and declarer finessing the jack. East shows out discarding the six of clubs. Declarer's next lead is the five of dia- monds, winning in the dummy with the queen.
 The good jack of spades is re- turned, but the declarer must shorten himself in trump in order to get down to the same number of trump that West holds. therefore he trumps the good jack of spades with the five of hearts and then returns the nine of diamonds to the dummy's king. Now when the. ace of diamonds is returned from dummy West is forced to trump with either the ace or queen of hearts. Tn either case the declarer is bound to make his king of hearts.
 By laying out the cards of the last four tricks, our readers can easily understand why the decIarer must trump the good jack of spades with the five of hearts. If he were to discard the nine of diamonds. then when he led a diamond from dummy, West would follow with a diamond and the declarer would be forced to trump as he has nothing but trump left and would then have to lead into the ace queen of trump held of West and would lose the last two tricks

Nat. Dry Goods Assn
 Joins Adv. Federation
Sales Promotion Division Latest Group to Be Repre-
 scented at Annual Convention in June

We are pleased to have the sales
 promotion division hold their sum- mer convention coincident with ours. For years we have had depart mental sessions at our annual con- ventions for the retail advertising managers. It has been pointed out | to us by MT Collins and his associates that many of those who have partici- lpated in our retail departmental ses- sions have been recruited from the ranks of the sales promotion divi-
 sion of the National Retail Dry Goods association. Many of the members of this division and of our affiliated advertising clubs have been in the habit of attending both con- lventions. Others have attended either one or the other of the two lconventions
 ! We have arranged this year to have the two combined into one.
 Thus, we will be able to offer to those lattending the convention this year what I believe will be the strong est program for those interested .n retail sales promotion that we have lever had. It is an ideal arrange
 ment and we are all very much pleased with it.
 Other of the groups that are meet l ing with the federation at that time are the following: The International Trade Conference. Magazine Repre- lsentatives. Newspaper Representa- lives. Newspaper Advertising Execu- | lives association. Public Utilities Ad- ivertising association. Association of Newspaper Classified Advertising Managers. Broadcast Advertisers. Direct Mail Advertising Conference, lAdvertising Typographers of Amer lica. Envelope Manufacturers Asso- citation of America. Manufacturers Merchandise Advertising association. National Association of Teachers of
 Marketing and Advertising. Religious Press Department and the Agricul- turol Publishers association.

ATEW YORK, July 28.-You're
~ going to like the new 1881
lovely fur coats even better-no
matter how fond you may have been
of certain fur coat in years past.
That's a broad statement to make.
But the minute you try on one Of
these new fur coats (and do look
at yourself from all sides when you
dob you'll see why we're SO sure
about it.
It's because women look so much
better in these new coats than
they've ever looked in others. Just
see how smooth-ftting they are
Gust as smooth as a cloth coat) L.
The lines of the figure are just as
clearly and fashionably outlined as
though the coat were Of wool.
Sleeves With Detail
Take particular notice Of the
sleeves and how interesting they are.
Not just tube of fur with a hand
at the end, but a real sleeve with
interesting detail work on it. Just
such a sleeve as you might see on
any good-looking new fall dress or
cloth coat.
The fur coat collars are also ex-
citing. There are many kinds of
collars. just as many kinds as
dresses or coats have.
And all this interesting detail
work and smoother fit gives you a
look of elegance that fits right in
with the new ideas on femininity
and individuality all fall clothes
are going to have.
Furs Are Supple
It's the new kinds Of furs that
make the new fur coat fit so much
better. Some new pelts and some
old ones finished in new ways SO
that all approach very closely the
suppleness and pliability of fabric
The fashionable street-wear furs
include caracul and lamb-and you
know how soft and workable those
are. Galyak and pony-even
smoother and thinner. Sealskin-
both real and Hudson seal and both
with a texture almost like velvet
Lapin-another soft, bulkless fur
Mink and beaver-supple as can be.
One noticeable difference between
this years fur and last years is the
straighter line of the silhouette.
There's not quite as much flare in
the skirt section. Chats some
thing you're also going to notice
about new cloth coats)
Waistlines are just bit higher
than they we're and they're def
nitely indicated by slight fitting,
accented by a button or sometimes
by a belt. Belts, however, are found
mostly on sports fur coats, while
coats for regular, daily use prefer
the button.
Often buttons are found on
sleeves, too-(a detail you'll find on
cloth coats and fall dresses)-and
sleeves are often fitted, with buttons
extending clear to the elbow.
Sleeves that have leg O. mutton
look, sleeves that flare and sleeves
