Although the two previous
bidders had failed to open the
contracting, US 312 quick
tricks, his 4-4-41 distribution,
and his strength in both major
suits, obligated him to bid
something. He feared that max
ing an opening bid of dia-
monds, followed by a shift to
spades. would make his partner
believe that his minor suit was
the longer of the two shown,
so Y made an opening bid Of
1-Spade. rs overcall of 2-ClubS
then forced Y to bid 2-Dia-
monds. Whereupon 2 jumped
the contract of 4-Spades.
The way play went gave Y
rather an easy time. Not wish.
ing to open hearts. or either Of
the two suits bid adversely and
denied by the bidders partner.
B made an opening lead of his
lowest spade. 1t ordinarily is
an excellent lead. when part
ners have bid different suits,
and finally they have agreed
upon a third suit. to lead that
suit, to cut down cross-ruffing.
Dummy won the first trick
with the Q of spades. Then the
declarer ran off three diamond
tricks, diScarding two hearts
from rummy upon the last two
tricks. Dummy ruffled the
fourth round of diamonds with
the g. giving the declaring side
its fifth straight trick.
The 7 of hearts was led from
dummy. BIS j won the trick.
B led his of spades. Dummy'S
K won the trick, and dummy'S
last heart was led. BIS @ won
the trick. Why B led his Ace
of hearts he had difficulty in
explaining later. Then B led
his lowest club because his
partner had discarded his Of
that suit when B won his last
heart trick, and trumped the
trick with his 8 of that suit
when B won his last heart
trick. OF course dummy's Ace
won the club lead. The de.
clarer led a club from dummy,
and trumped the trick with his
8. All Y had to do was to
lead his Ace of spades, bump
ing together the two missing
trumps, and then Y won his
tenth and last trick by leading
his good heart.
At the end of the eighth
trick the holdings about the
table were as follows:

The Rhymins
Optimist
BY ALINE MICHAELIS
Where Happiness Dwells

"HCAC AA"PPAASoc O"NAS
Nobody knows where happiness
waits,
Across what meadows, within
what gates.
Sometimes for an hour it walks
by ones side,
Then veers like the wind or
turns like the TIDE.
When 1 was a child 1t was
everywhere.
1t danced in the sunlight, 1t
sang in the air.
1t pulsed through the notes Of
my mothers song
And the arms of my father,
straight and strong.
Nobody knows where happiness
dwells
Or how to snare it by charms
or spells:
1t can fly like a lark; 1t can
bud like a rose;
But the secret of happiness no.
body knows.
This much is true: it will not
depart
From the way of tender and
loving heart;
1t can veer like the wind, 1t
can turn like the tide.
But in souls that have faith 1t
will still abide.

CHAPTER 6
There was a light in Carey's

The Careys practically lived
In the kitchen. You always

many Careys, and so little house
that every room was a sleeping
room but the kitchen.
Val hesitated, cycling the light.
Her first courage was begin

tie foolish. 1t was after 9
o'clock.

tried to achieve their light

Betty giggled again. "Joe's

Teddy advised. I'VE love your

Advice to the
LoveIorn
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX

Is He Tied To Mothers apron?
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
I have been going with boy
for the past few weeks and
have learned to love him very
dearly. At the time I met this
boy 1 was engaged to another,
but broke it, realizing that this
was the real thing. 1 gave up
everything and every one for
him, and now he has left me,
due to the fact that his family
dislikes me.
They heard some gossip
about me that is not true. They
have succeeded in breaking us
up. He left without word and
1 have not seen him since. I
am just sick over the whole
affair. I haven't eaten or slept
in over week.
Shall I call him on the
phone, try to get in touch with
him. or what? My friends say
he is weak, yellow and tied to
his mothers apron strings, but
I feel sure this is not true.
BUNNY.
Every one is entitled to trial,
and the fact that this young
man apparently has condemned
you, without giving you
chance to explain the gossip,
doesn't put him in a very ia
vorable light. Think ahead.
How would you get along with
husband of this type?
If you still care, after the
attitude, he has taken, you
might give him a ring or write
him a note and attempt to set
things straight. Perhaps after
you see him again you will see
him differently, and realize
that he is not worth missing
meals and sleep over. If they're
the type who listen to gossip
and rumors, when they're uh-
founded, they really aren't
worth worrying about.

WASH |NCTON FASHIONS

This old-fashioned vogue is on
the increase. Perhaps when you
heard so much of Victorian
fashions last year, you thought
1t was just a fad of the moment,
and that they would pass with
the season. But they're here
this autumn, and smarter than
ever. Variously called Edwar-
dian. or Victorian, they are all
the same, for they refer to that
gay period of the '90s, when
Victoria was queen, but her son
Edward was the Prince of Wales,
when life was again enjoyable
at the court. and the young
prince was always surrounded
by a carefree and fashionable
throng.
Tiny High Collars
Capelets, muffs, small hats
perched we'll to the front, high
necklines, big sleeves, and waists
that fit the top of the ribs are
the characteristics of that age
that we have borrowed for our
own clothes. Our colorS. fabrics
and the patterns of the ma
terials are Victorian, too. Plaids
return. sheer woolenS. such
tones as plum, mauve, wine and
brown are reminiscent of the
ZOOS, and materials that are in
teresting for texture are de-
cidedly Edwardian. So if you
would be smart this fall, COM
bine as many of these features
as possible in your clothes. It's
smart to look quaint, though
we moderns usually manage to
be sophisticated, too.
PIaids are Gay
We've found new sheer
Woolen that combines many Vic
torian features. and had it
sketched for today. Notice the
Edwardian puff to the sleeves,
and the waist so high and fit
ted. The neckline is right up
under the chin, and is finished
with stitched pique, as are the
sleeves. The skirt is plain and
straight until it gets below the
knees. where it flares in Gibson
girl fashion. The very big but
tons and belt buckle to match
are another old-faShioned touch.
This dress comes in plaidS with
yellow, red or green predominant
ing, and is in misses sizes. 1t is
only $40. in spite of it's many
fashion points.

B was dumb to lead off his
Ace of Hearts, thereby giving
Y the balance of the trick. All
B has to do is to retain his
top Heart, and lead a Club.
Unless dummy's Ace wins the
trick the declarer will be down
one trick. If dummy wins that
trick, Y must trump the next
lead of Clubs, and any way he
tries to play the hand he must
lose two tricks, defeating his
contract by one trick. The

The idea of going to Washington
to demand in person immediate pay
ment of the soldiers bonus, started
less than two weeks ago by a group
in Oregon, had spread largely over
the east and south Thursday.
There were already $500 Of the
veterans in Washington, and, hav-
ing received word that hundreds
more were either en- route or about
to start, authorities there were be-
ginning to worry about how they
were to be fed.
Dallas. Texas. reported veterans
were gathering all over the state for
a march to Washington. and at Fort
Worth Wednesday night a group
clambered aboard an eastbound train.
Most of them, it was believed, were
thrown off.
Veterans from Chicago and De-
troit were expected to join with Ohio
ans Thursday at Toledo. and more
Chicagoans were travelling through
Pennsylvania, the Pennsylvania rail-
road furnishing them transportation.
Between 200 and $50 were advanc-
ing northward from Louisiana and
Florida, 200 expected to leave john
son City, Tenn. and 200 more plan

Another large group expected to leave

New York. June 2.-R)-Speedy
preparation of removal charges
against Mayor James J. Walker was in
prospect Thursday.
Samuel Seabury's investigation of
the mayors office, in which IA months
of toilsome inquiry reached climax
in a spectacular verbal duel between
Seabury and the mayor. wound up
late Wednesday. Newspapers predict
ed custer charges would be laid before
Governor Franklin .. Roosevelt soon,
possibly next week.
Because Gov. Roosevelt Is a candi-
date for the Democratic presidential
nomination and Mayor Walker is an
adherent of Tammany Hall, the pos
sible effects of the Walker case on the
national political picture have come
more and more to the fore.
Very different from the flaming

Walker heard Seabury produce evil

To h question suggesting possible
graft, he entered a denial. He ac-
knowledged he split money with
group of doctors who received large
fees from the city for treating injured
employees, but denied splitting city
fees, except with one doctor. With
this doctor, he said, he had Joint
bank account. in which both deposit

He said It was just coincidence
that payments by another doctor to
him were exactly half Of city fees re-
ceived by that doctor.

bonds of a corporation doing business
