OUTSIDERS MAN HELP TO
 TRAIN CHILD
 Sometimes parents lose effective. ness in handling their children. They become an old story and no matter how adroit they are in working out new methods of obe. dience and behavior, the whole process lacks force because the ex- poncnt has no dramatic Interest in himself. Z, '.
 Dramatic interest,"! It is the word that makes the world 20 around. All of us dramatlze life. ourselves, and everything around us. It Is through this interest that we work well, endure hardship, and go through fire and water. v As 1t Is with us so 1t is with chil. drcn. think we underestimate this truth In our handling of them, Get at a child through this Instinct of picture building and you can do almost anything with him.
 It Is the secret of hero worship. One day rot long ago the mother of a 12-year-old boy said she did not know what to do with him. Both she and her husband had lost their influence. I gathered.
 Well-this lady was q very nice, pleasant soul. and so was her hus. hand, but anyone less discerning than myself could see that both of them lacked personality.
 Child and Parents Differ
 She was fusser about her house and also could tell you the name of every perfume on tho market and who made 1t. The father was plainly m adding ma chine who had made some money, This boy was smart, full of life had m active imagination and had moro personality than both par. ents put together. tsN s.r., I asked if there was anybody he admired--if she knew of any young men he held in awe.
 Wcll--it seemed that he had friends. odd friends at that. for q boy, according to them. An old German cabinetmaker who knew European history like Carneglc library. A young fireman around the corner, and ono Pletro Car meil who had won fame as captain of tho high school team. { There 1t was--a perfect cinemH of opportunity.

Scarcely ever did Susan glance at the society pages but new gossip department written by chatty person known to her readers ns the Duchess, caught her eye. As sometimes hap pens, one name resolved itself into the blackest type and leaped out at the girl She read the paragraph with passionate interest.
 "A little birdy tells us wedding bells are soon to ring for that dash ing young sportsman. Bobby Dun- bar. Who the charming lady Is your Duchess Is not free to dis [ close, but she has it on the best authority that Mendclssohn's wcd- ding march will be played for Lord Robert before the leaves begin to turn.

Young men of his type and station thought nothing of saying charming things to girls like herself. She had mis- taken the merest polite interest for something deeper and moro import ant. Thus reason spoke. Susan's rebelllous heart kept clamoring had been between Robert Dunbar and herself a marvellous, perfect understanding. only for an in- stant, indeed, yet 1t had been there, and had been recognized by the boy as well as by herself.
 She realized with q clear blind- Ing flash of perception that it was because of Robert Dunbar that she

 insouciance.
 Confused. Susan murmured.

Tine Bidding

NN lI1C ApiUtthlS
 South. the dealer. opened with two clubs, North bid two spades and East. holding two six-card suits, shows the higher ranking suit first and bid three hearts. South bid three spades, West and North passed and East, showed his second suit by bidding four diamonds, south and West passed, North bid four spades, East and south passed and West doubled four spades - q poor double as 1t located for the declared the -miss. ing honor in spades. East refused to allow the double to stand. pre-. ferring to take the sacrifice and bid five diamonds which was doubled by South.
 The Play
 At some tables South did buy the bid for four spades. When South bought the contract at spades, West would open the ace of diamonds and continue with the ten of diamonds. East would oycrtakc with the queen and re- turn the king of diamonds. South must trump with the ace of spades 10 shut out Vests queen. The Jack of spades Is then led by the deciarer and if West refuses to cover, the declarer allows it to ride through and then leads the len of spades. Tho next lead of spades will pick Vests queen.
 The declarer must then take the ten of hearts flnesse. This will establish a good heart for him upon which he can discard q losing club in dummy. In this nannep ail the .declarer would have to lose would be- two dia. monds and q heart. With East playing the contract nt five diamonds. he must go down one trick If South opens q diamond. but even this is q very rood score as five diamondsf dou. bicd down one is minus 100 --lcast nnd West hold 70 honOrs 70 thnt they Gijl only besmInus 60 on the hand, which IE a far better score than allowing North aud south to make four spades.

HACKERS OF THE SALES TAX ARE
 FIGHTING HARD

Washington. March 16.-(UP) Old fashioned log rolling and horse trading were in evidence in the house to-day as the leaders struggled to rescue the sales tax from defeat. The leaders were bargaining frankly for votes. They claimed the canned goods ex- emption brought in 25 democratic supporters who were planning to vote against the IA per cent levy on manufactured goods. Addi- tional concessions may be made to other groups, particularly those interested in irrigation, farming, livestock and lumber.
 Confidence was expressed by those in control that these efforts would provide the majority neces- sary for passage of the disputed provision the latter part of the week. To meet this strategy, op- ponents of the tax caleld upon their followers to meet tonight to form fighting organization. The opponents plan to contest the tax on a straight basis now. If they lose they Intend to play the game now being played by the leaders.

Washington---Linc birthday this year was utilized as political field day by republican orators who still retain identifications with the Hoover administration and who un- detrtook to draw a parallel between Lincoln and the present incumbent of the White House. Two of these speeches were criticised by q staunch republican paper, the Brooklyn Eagle.
 Of speech of Senator "Jim" Watson, republican, leader of the senate, who declared that MT Hoover has been the most maligned of our presidents save the sainted Lincold," the Eagle says:
 "Mr Watson, being q party politician and speaking before a partisan audience, makes ex-
 actly the comparison and talks
 exactly the language expected of
 a party politician in addressing
 "Mr Watson, himself. was a
 member of the senate when re-
 publican leaders in that body
 gave the keynote for chorus
 of criticism leveiled ot a demo-
 cratic president, which. in gross
 misrepresentation and malice,
 was worse than anything MT
 Hoover has endured" "
 The paper then describes a speech by Secretary of the Navy Adams in Portland, Me-, as giving an example of the loyal spirit that he wa nts republicans to generate for the coming presidential cam paign," and adds:
