The Beauty Box

Whether or not the white
haired sister should plunge her
snowy crown into the dye pot
is a matter for herself to de-
eide. Sometimes she thinks
she'll die if she doesn't; there's
no talking her out of it. If
she plans to make her own ap-
plicationS, let her take a single,
hidden strand, tie with
thread, apply the magic lotion
and wait several days to observe
results. All dyes, naturally,
are not suitable for all heads.
1t Is necessary to find the
right shade. And let not the
seeker after youthful looks for.

Y, 3-Clubs, showing at least one
quick trick; z, 3-Hearts, to
show both length and strength;
Y, 3-Spades, showing the shorter
of her two black suits; 2, 3-No
Trumps, to show stop to the
unbid suit plus general strength;
Y, 4-HeartS; 2, 6-Hearts.
Evidently spades were not
strong. Doubtless B held length
in that suit. Mrs. Shepard's
lead of her 9 of spades proved
to be the most troublesome
opening possible. Any other
lead would have been more well
come. The declarer won the
opening lead with her K, leav.
ing her only a single chance
to enter dummy. She must
overtake her of spades with
either dummy's Ace or Q. If
she used dummy's single card
of entry to lead clubs through
B, how could she make use Of
that suit after she established it?
That opening lead made
strategy difficult.
To insure against any trou-
blesome adverse ruff, the de-
clarer led three rounds Of
hearts, dropping all opposing
trumps. To secure discards Of
two diamonds, Miss Curtis had
to establish clubs, using
dummy's high spades to regain
entry to dummy, in order to
run off clubs after establish
ment of that suit.
The declarer led her Ace of
clubs, we'd by the 5.
Dummy's 10 would win the
trick, unless the K was played.
B knew that neither her part
ner nor the declarer had any
clubs left. BY winning that
trick with her K, BIS return
lead of diamond might win
a second defensive trick.
B won the club trick, then
she led back her 4 of diamonds,
as if it we're a fourth-best
card. Had there been any ex-
cuse in the world for taking a
finesse Miss Curtis would have
done so. But the declarer had
only two diamonds to discard,
while dummy held three estab-
lished clubs and one spade
upon which to cast off her two
diamonds. Of course an old
stager like Miss Curtis did not
fall for anything that looked
tempting, as long as another
method of play held no possible
chances for failure to fulfill
contract.
The declarer won the dia-
mond led through her. with
her Ace. Then she led the J.
of spades. Dummy's Q won the
trick. The Ace of spades and
the Q of clubs afforded the
two discards needed to be rid Of
the Q-5 of diamonds. Miss
Curtis then spread her hand,
claiming the balance of tricks
for her remaining three trumps.
One might inquire why Miss
Curtis did not claim balance
as soon as trumps fell. She
might have done this, but habit
is strong with her. Frequently
she finds it takes less time to
play out a hand to the last
trick than to explain to poor
players how she proposes to
win the balance of her tricks.
That reason did not exist in
this particular hand. She merely
played the hand further than
necessary through habit.

t "The Rivals" c drama in which the action is based upon humorous Reception and one of Richard Brindsley Sherlden's most roliick. ing comedies, sparkling with wit and one giving full scope of Sher- iden's genius in It's happiest mood. was successfully presented by the senior class of Waterbury Catholic High school last evening in the school auditorium before ca- pacity, and most appreciative au- dience,
 The center of the presentation was Miss Lydia Languish, q rich heiress, cleverly impersonated by Mary Kane Corcoran. The heir ess was under the tutelage of her aunt, Mrs Malaprop, portrayed faultlessiy by Calista Begnal. Lydia decided to choose her own hus- band and refused to accept the one selected by her eccentric aunt. The rivals for the hand of Lydia were Captain Absolute. wealthy scion of an old and honorable fam fly played excellently by Clare Murphy, and Ensign Beverly taken by the same girl as a poor officer in the army. Unknown to Lydia and Mrs Mnlaprop, the Cap tain and Ensign are one and the same man. Miss Murphy filled the capacity of both parts like q veteran thespian. Her difficult speeches were delivered with great repose and her discriminating tongue created most favorable impression on the minds Of her attentive listeners.
 For a century and a haif this play has kept It's place In Ameri- ca's theatrical repertory. Joseph

|METHODISTS OF { NATION WARNED
 BOTH PARTIES
Challenge of War Hurled at Them If They Dare to
 Put Wet Planks in Their
 Platforms aI'

Atlantic City, N. J., May l7--- (UP)-The Methodist board of temperance, prohibition and public morals flung challenge of war to-day against either party which puts q wet plank in its platform or nominAtes a candidate who as- sauits the dry law.
 pr Clarence True Wilson, gem eral secretary of the board, ad- dressed a huge rally here last night, telling the Methodists we are going to elect a president and ce-president- for q Christian roe public and for prohibition na- tion."
 we are willing" Wilson de- clared, Ito have this done and keep absolutely out of politics, but if q wet candidate is put up, we will consider thta a declaration of war against us and our Ideals and we will give battle on all fronts"
 Dr Wilson read . letter from Henry Ford before launching his declaration of war policy. Ford said in part:
 T give unreserved support to the eighteenth amendment and the prohibition law because they pro- vide the degree of control over II. quor which is necessary for na- tional sobriety. We have always had excellent official coop. eration in It's enforcement"
 Attacking the pleas for a refer. endum on the question, Wilson shouted:
 "We will show the hypocrisy of Q clannor for @ referendum when what they propose to give us Is not referendum at all, but conven. ton that can be bought up by their millionaire would-be liquor deal ers."
 The presidential election in 1928 was the best referendum that ever could be devised, Wilson said. He cited the 100000 plurality for President Hoover as Q "demonstrn- ton that loyal, iaw-abiding Amer. jeans still are in the ascendency in this republic" a.-s. The speaker denounced "loose administration. propaganda backed by millionaires, and newspaper conspiracy to misrcpresent prohi- bition. its results and ali tho acts of its administrations" Wilson then oobOt Noo ~ HihH WuVp0 VhtIl of ofiice requires hin, to protest, defend and enforce the federal constitution in the greatest city of the republic has called tho loose and lawiess elements of his mis- governed municipality to rally In q big wet parade" Again, referring to Mayor James J. Walkers demonstration satur. day, he said:
 What c spectacle for angels and men that was, when the city that resisted the draft in tho Civil war parades with banners of Down With tho Constitution of the Re. public 65 years afterward!" The dry rally, held in connoc- ton with the current general quad . renniai conference of the Method . ist Episcopal church, was attended by 4.600. termed the largest of its kind since prohibition.
