sized Task

John w. Reel, selected from among
a large group Of applicants for the
post Of recreational director In Bis
marck, realizes that he has a job
ahead of him.
This is indicated by Reel in letters
to the city recreation board, composed
of Mayor A. p. Lenhart, represent
ing the city: Father John A. H. Stag,
representing the park board, n Or.
w. E. Cole. representing the city
school board.
Although the arrangement here Is
entirely new in some details, insofar
as members of the board know, 1t
will not be wholly new to Reel. In a
letter to the board he said that he
once had charge of a layout some
what similar to that here. the only
difference being that it was In Flor
ida.
According to Reels letter. 1t would
be unwise to expect to develop a CITY
wide program without the proper
groundwork and in too short q time.
His idea Is that it will take at least
two years to initiate and fully de-
velop a program such as. Is con-
templated by the recreationaI BOARD.
Commenting on the size OF tne Joo

In the great majority of cases,
when South has opened the bidding
with q two-club forcing bid. North's
proper response will be two diamonds.
and remember that North is obligated
to make this response OF two dia-
moiads ven though the hand does not
contain a card higher than a six spot.
North's two-diamond response is
an artificial convention and his hand
may or may not contain a diamond.
Just the same as his partners hand
in making an original two-club fore
ing bid may. n may not contain a
club. The object of the two-diamond
response is to keep the bidding open
as cheaply as possible 50 that partner
may show both Of his true declara-
lions.
When North's hand contains an ace
and q king. or two aces, he will make
the positive response as described IN
yesterdays article. If North we're to
respond with two of q major suit and
that major happens to be n OF
South's strong suits, South will bid
four or more Of that major according
to the strength of his hand. If the
major suit named by North happens
to be the hole or the weak suit In
South's hand, South will jump the
! bid to thre no trump. and as this is a
game-going declaration, North is not
obligated to keep the bidding open
further.
\ X i
After North's response with two OF
a major and that particular major
does not suit South's hand, South Will
then show the higher value Of his
two declarations. II North'S response
, had been two no trump. South now
has the information that his partner
holds an ace and q king or two aces
This may justify him in going tt
three no trump, but If he still desire:
to play the hand In a suit in prefer
ence to no trump, he will show the
higher ranking Of his two suits. A:
soon as the game bid has been ar
rived at, North must pass unless N
desires a slam.
When South opens with two club
and North responds with two dia

South now goes to two no trump
North must realize that he Is goin|

All Pile Agony Ended Without Cut

If you think that the surgeons

from the misery of piles, it's because
you haven't heard of the new rem
edy known as DR.. Leonhardt's HEM
rod.
The Doctors prescription IS a
quick acting yet harmless internal
medicine. After years of study he
discovered the exact cause of piles
and then went further and COM
pounded a remedy that would re-
move the cause.
DR.. Leonhardt wants every sufferer of
piles to benefit by his discovery and
so that there will be no doubling or
delay, Hooks Drug Stores and good
druggists everywhere are authorized
to sell HEM ROID with guarantee that
it will positively end piles in any form
or money back.
On that honorable basis every pile
sufferer should secure a bottle of DR..

DLUM tree shaking, that quaint
L old Hoosier political pastime
performed at the expense of the
taxpayer, will come into its own
within a year, when the Leslie ad-
ministration nears its close.
One of the usual methods of re-
warding governors secretaries is to
appoint them to lucrative state
posts, such as the public service
commission or state tax board.
Governor Ed Jackson took care
Of his secretary, Pliny H. Wo,ford,
by naming him to the state tax
board.
Friends of Gaylord Morton are
suggesting his appointment as Sec
rotary Of the joint purchasing COM
mittee to replace Daley E. Mccoy,
whose term expired in April, 1929,
and who has been serving without
appointment since.
Mccoy was rewarded with this
post by Jackson, whose campaign he
managed
Morton is we'll liked and although
acting as more or less Of an under
secretary he has shown a wide
knowledge Of the business Of the
Governors office, made many
friends, and has been regarded as
the real secretary. There is no
doubt that Morton is an asset to
Leslie.
State Senator Byron Huff of
Martinsville, who is state budget
committee member. is also said to
be seeking this position.
Lewis o. Chasey, chief secretary,
would like either a tax board or
public service commission job, it is
reported
Only remaining tax board ap-
pointment terminating during the
Leslie administration is that of VOL
ford, whose term expires in De-
cember, 1892. The public service
commission post to be open is that
of Francis T. Singleton, which ter
inmates July l, 1882.
Chasey has not been able to es-
tablish any valuable connections
and probably will be without an
advocate at Leslie'S court. He was
not a Leslie man during the 1928
campaign primary and convention
and his appointment was said to
have been a concession to the farm
group.
In fact, as far as state affairs
went, Chasey's record has shown
him only writer of Governors
proclamations.

Thousands at Carnival

III NdS eSLlIldLeQ JldJ more IMAM
a quarter million persons crowded
into State street for the carnival
Wednesday night.
Flags and bunting few from
every store and light post. Search
lights played across the packed
masses Of humanity and up along
the buildings.
At six intersections. nationally
known orchestra leaders had charge
Of programs in which more than
three hundred entertainers took
part The merrymakers danced.
Tons of confetti and ticker tape
were tossed.
Scores of women tainted in the
jam. They were carried to nearby
emergency Red Cross stations. At
one corner so many women tainted
and were carried on to the amuse-
ment platform the performers had
to climb off to make room. One
restaurant manager reported almost
thirty unconscious girls carried into
his place during the evening.
Movie Actor Is Hurt
Dennis Sullivan, 54 a barber, fell
dead Of heart disease while trying
to fight his way to one Of the
stages. Several score others suf-
fered minor injuries in the jam.
The crowd became so dense at 9
o'cloc., that several big plate glass
windows were crushed in.
Jean Harlow, movie actress, was
among these hurt. A photographer
asked her to shake hands with some
of the merrymakers around her
stage. The handshakes were so en-
thusiastic her hand was cut by a
ring and glass from a wrist watch,
which was broken, slashed her wrist.
The carnival stage ended three
quarters of a mile under the big
lights which electrical experts say
make State street the best illumi-
mated thoroughfare in the world.
The new mayor, Anton j. Cermak,
took part in the program. Repre-
sentatives of thirty-six foreign
countries were there.
