The Bidding.

The Bidding.
 The auction bidding was South one spade, West two hearts. North two spades, East and South both passed. West bid three diamonds, North passed, East bid three hearts South bid three spades. West bid four hearts and North went to four spades, which bought the contract.
 The contract bidding would be South, one spade; West. two hearts; North, three spades; South, four spades.
 Tine Play.
 MT Enrich sat in the West po- sition and opened the king or hearts, the deuce was played from dummy, East dropped the six and South, the declarer, played the nine. What would you next lead from MT Emrich's hand? With no more hearts in dummy. he does not wish to lead diamond away from his king. A lead of club will set all of the clubs. So he has a choice of leading either a spade or a heart.
 One of the first principles we learned in the defensive play of a hand is not to lead a suit in which the declarer Is void in one hand and can ruff. but clever plays are ones where we do the unusual MT Enrich had marked South with both of the missing aces from the bidding. . That long club suit in dummy looked dangerous. The three spades to the ace looked as though they might give the declar- CT an extra entry into dummy, so Mir Enrich deliberately led his acc of hearts, which allowed the de- clarer to ruff in dummy with the four of spades.
 The decinrer followed from his own hand with the queen. You will now see that 1t is impossible for the declarer to make Q small slam, as he must take two rounds of trump to pick up tho outstand' ing trump, and then it is still nec. essary for him to establish hif clubs ana he will have no entry 10 get into the dummy's hand.
 if Mir Enrich had led anything ---the declarer would take two rounds of trump. lead his aee of clubs and thea q small club and then q small club. winning ir dummy with the king.
 The pack of clubs would be played from dummy and l1asl would have to cover either thai lead or the next one, but the de. elarer would then establish thfet clubs. upon which he could as card the queen and nine of dia' mends and the aaeen of heartn.
 Unusually clever plays exacmted at the proper time gre Wbht pfo' anee ef1Asnplenf.

 Cleveland was perhaps the last large city in the country to relin- quish auction bridge. During the height of auction Cleveland could always be depended upon to pro- duce a champion at a tournament. Cleveland's Inter-club league at one time had 29 clubs represented, but this year only four teams turned out for auction.
 The Western Reserve team won what will be the last Cleveland auction team of four champion ship. O.. E. Enrich of Cleveland, a member of this well-known team, executed a clever defensive play in today's hand during the last evening of play.

EASTER

Easter proves the mighty reality OF
idealism. Easter is Gods promise and hu.
manity's hope of regenerated human race
Easter is the rainbow reaching from Heaven
to Earth with its Heavenly promise of bet
ter things.
Right and peace will yet kiss each other.
Good will to man will yet take the place of
! i'll will. The healing of love will heal the
scars of hate The night of every grave has
its morning; even the grave of worldwide
peace. Out of the dark and bloody soil of
strife will surely blossom the lilies of broth
erhood, peace and progress
Easter knows both sides of life, the tragic
and the triumphant But it believes that the
triumphant will triumph In the bright
lexicon of this day there is no such word as
failure. "Be of good cheer, have overcome
the world"
Easter confirms the undying faith of hui
man hearts. How do we know that better
days are ahead? We don't know. Yet who
would predict today that the dead rose
bushes will ever come to life again Or that
frail song birds will ever return with their
sun-kissed songs? Yet these things will be-
Easter says, Look up, God reigns, and the
universe is secure"

The objection is made to Frank r. Jeffrey
for governor that he is a mere kid. In justice
to Frank it should be said that while he was
kid at one time he has partially gotten
over it. He began to reform in that respect
about 20 years ago when he was reporter
on the Republic Later on he made substan-
tial progress by graduating from a law school
and becoming a senator's private secretary.
He rubbed off some of his youthfulness by
being federal district attorney. What he
has left of it is what continued to adhere aft
er he came home from France captain in
the army IL or 13 years back If he lives long
enough maybe he will get over the rest of his
kiddishness by the time he is an old man.

of the nation arrives at quite an opposite
conclusion. A summary of the facts present
ed in the Bankers Monthly for February
shows that
The country came thru 1881 with 10000
banks still serving their communities.
With bank for every Glib people com
pared with one for every 9,8O8 people in
1880.
With only about 2 percent of total bank
resources tied up in closed banks.
With an unexpected recovery for deposit
ors of 1926 million dollars.
With more banks reopened and more new
banks started than in 1890
In the failed banks since the beginning of
the federal reserve system 85 percent of the
deposits of national banks have been recov-
ed and a large percentage of the deposits Of
state banks as well may be added to this.
With this showing the country has reason to
be proud of it's banking system. It is hard
to get away with crooked bank failure or
a failure involving violations of the law Of
ficers of the government state and ma
tion-have been extremely vigilant and the
record of convictions is almost 100 percent
of arrests.

BOARDING MONEY HURTS ALL

Put your money in the banks. To do any
thing else is just holding back better times
If every one would have confidence in each
other and cooperate, the difficulties would
soon be over and everybody happy. After
all, we must go on, and acting foolish doesn't
help any. Benton county banks are all sol
vent and all honestly operated. Give them
your earnest support.
