Someone hadn't said the world

z made an opening bid of
One Spade upon strength a
trick short of a semi-forcing
two bid. His partner shifted
into One No trump. Under
the official system such pro-
cedure is uncalled for unless
real strength is held. z over
called with Two Spades. Y
went Four Spades, ending con-
tracing. The opening lead
was the Four of Hearts, plain
ly marking the missing ace
king in BIS hand. Y played
low; the king won the trick.
The return lead was the Four
of Clubs. z concealed his pos
session of the king, by playing
the seven. A put up the ten;
the ace won the trick.
The situation did not ap-
pear favorable for game. There
were in sight just nine tricks;
six trump tricks; two club
tricks; one diamond trick. An
added trick was required for
fulfillment of the game con-
tract. Evidently A held the
jack-king and at least one
more heart. AS plainly also B
held at least the Ace of Hearts.
He would almost certainly have
fineSsed his lower honor. With
the Queen, Jack and Nine of
Clubs held adversely there
could be no chance to establish
a card of that suit in dummy.
In diamonds there were the
king, queen, ten and eight by
ABB jointly. The only thing
that z could do was to lead
trumps until he could see some
ray of hope of an added trick.
Dummy's j of spades won the
third trick. Declarer's @ won
the fourth trick; BIS discard of
the 3 of clubs showed that origi-
nally he held five cards of the
suit, giving three club for AS
original holding. A originally

held three spades and B held
only one.
The fifth trick was won by the
K of spades; A and Y followed
suit; B showed possession of a
high diamond, by his discard Of
the 8 of that suit. z won the
sixth trick with his Ace of
spades, and here A gave the de-
clarer an invaluable bit of in
formation-A dropped the 3 of
hearts.
Figure this out as z did. A
had made an opening lead of
his fourth-best heart (the A..
Then A showed a card lower
than the one led; in other words
A originally held five hearts.
AS w jointed held six hearts.
B held at first only two hearts
the AK. To avoid letting the
declarer know that he held only
two hearts, and to inform his
partner that he still held the
Ace, B had won the first trick
with his K, then he had shifted
the lead, hoping on the next
lead of hearts to pick up
dummy's @, if A would lead a
high heart through dummy.
For the seventh trick, z led
his 7 of spades. A discarded
his 7 of hearts; evidently he
now held just the J-10 of
hearts, two clubs and two dia-
monds. US lowest diamond was
let go; dummy held he % of
hearts, the 8 of clubs, and the
ATS of diamonds. B discarded
his 6 of clubs, leaving him with
two clubs, the lone Ace of
hearts, and three diamonds. 1t
was all perfectly clear to z. He
led his top heart; A played the
10; dummy's 9 was put up, and
BIS Ace fell, leaving US @ good
for the tenth trick that he re-
quired for game. z then spread
his hand and claimed his four
tricks, giving opponents one dia-
mond trick at the end.

She laughed-a low hum

very near to Colt, she sud-

shoulders and kissed him on
the cheek. AS he stared at

perfectly safe in there. Moth
ing can happen to her. Let
her calm down."
At that instant a woman
screamed. 1t was a harsh cry,
choked with horror. The awful
sound of it rose to a piercing
height and then was throttled
off. There was crash like the
fall of body to the floor. In
one instant Colts hand was on
the knob and he flung back the
guest-room door.
On the floor of the guest
chamber lay the body of Lola
Carewe. The soft lamps, left
on since we were last in the
room, bathed her white and
lovely face in a warm glow of
light. What had happened to
her? Was she in a faint-or
dead? If dead, from what
cause?
While Colt knelt beside her,
these riddles spanked like fire
works in my bewildered brain.
People came running from other
rooms. Suddenly I heard a
sound which haunts me even
now. From somewhere in the
penthouse a clock chimed three
brazen strokes.
A Great Mystery
We were in the presence of a
mystery that soon would have
a nation by the ears. No Won

solved from the first to solve
this mystery above all others

his precautions.
The scene in that guest room,
transformed now into a cham
Der of fantastic mystery, is
craven indelibly on my memory.
Lola Carewe's body was
sprawled rigidly on the floor,
contorted almost into the form
of a question mark. She was
still wearing her French flan-

and buttoned. Her cloud of
black hair was tousled and dis
arranged. On her pretty face
was a livid flush. At the right
corner of her lips glistened a
spot of blood. The eyes were
wide open and fixed in a glaze.
She did not seem to be breath
ing.
Beside the still figure of the
woman knelt Thatcher Colt.

eyes narrowed. His fingers
played around Lola's wrist,
seeking her pulse. Listening,

Dougherty was bent over, on
the other side of the girl, his
red hands spread over his
knees, his popping blue eyes
fixed on her in bewilderment.
Quite Upset
In the doorway suddenly APP
peared Mrs. Carewe, her fea-
lures white and pinched with
fright against the gray horizon
of her hair. She ran forward,
fell beside Lola, and kissing her
frantically, cried to her to open
her eyes. Dougherty led her
back to the door. Peeping
around the edge of the door
was Vincent Rowland. The at
torney's eyes were curved Sits,
and the fingers of one sleek
old hand worried at his whis-
kered chin. Beyond we're clus-
tered a group of startled faces

woman detective.
Colts voice, crisp, precise,
broke the silence.
This girl seems to be dead.

Before he could reply, Mrs.
Carewe, who had insisted on re-

quick step back into the
room, repeating:

Washington Fashions
By WILMA LAVILLE

In this year of economy, it is
often "adjustables" that fill our
neeGs. Suits are plain, so that
they may be worn with either
tailored or frilly blouSes.
Dresses have jackets, so they
may have short or long sleeves,
Evening clothes have covered
shl ulders or an extra pair of
sleeves in the form of a jacket,
so that they may be formal or
informal. And daytime clothes
find many ways of doing the
same thing. Capes may be de.
tached, scarfs worn or left off,
sleeves pushed up and down,
and other details of dresses con-
form in as many other ways.
Try Another Blouse
Imagine a perfectly plain
blouse of colored handkerchief
linen with the silk suit we have
sketched today, and you will see
a spectator sports costume, a
splendid business suit, or an
ideal shopping costume. Or
wear it with it's own lace.
trimmed blouse and you have
another suit, but one that is
just as useful. The Jacket and
skirt are of silk crepe, checked
in navy and white, or lighter
blue and white, and the blouse
is of sheer white georgette,
trimmed with fine lace, and the
bottom of the blouse all over
tucked, like so many of the new
things. The skirt is plain and
pleated, the jacket edged with
Scallops, and it has open sleeves,
neither formal nor informal.
Jackets for Variety
Wear this suit with plain &C.
cessories, no matter what blouse
you choose, and either way it is
splendid for your immediate
needs, with your spring coat
over it, and equally good when
it's time to discard the coat.
The material is not heavy
enough to be hot, so it makes a
good midsummer shopping cos
tune, nor will it be too much
under a coat. No need to point
out how practical it is, and it is
inexpensive too, only SIS for
the three pieces.
