Disciples of Christ Board
Backs Relief Moves.

People must be considered before

der, and in America unemployment
insurance and old age pensions al~
among the means recommended to
bring this protection to the masses,
resolutions adopted by the board
of temperance and social welfare
of the Disciples of Christ set out.
The resolutions were passed at a
meeting of the board Friday after
noon at the Columbia Club.
Retention of the prohibition laws
and active participation Of the
United States in the League of Ma
tions also was urged.
Commenting on the current un-
employment, the resolutions con-
tinue:
America stands today in world
economic situation in which millions
of human beings, through no fault
of their own, lack sufficient food and
shelter for the maintenance of a
minimum standard of physical
health and efficiency.
"The tragedy of this condition lies
in the fact thta it falls most heavily
on the childhood of the world.
"UndernouriShed childhood never
can hope fully to recover mentally,
physically or spiritually from the
stunting effects Of a long period of
undernourishment. Later advantages
never can atone fully for the handi-
caps under which the race of life is
begun"
The Rev. E. L. Day, Martinsville,
is president of the board.

Audubon in Agreement With
Benjamin Franklin in
His DiSapprovaI of Bird.

WASHINGTON, July 2.-Ameri-
cas- emblem, the bald or white
headed eagle, that has screamed its
proud way through five long gen.
erations of independence day ora
tionS, was looked upon with vast dis
approval by one of the very fathers
of the republic, no less a man than
Benjamin Franklin himself.
Franklin was one of the most
scientifically minded and best-in-
formed men of his time, and he had
more f1rst-hand knowledge of the
bald eagle and its ways than did
most of his fellow statesmen, who
overrode his views and selected the
bird as symbolical of American
ideals.
Franklins low opinion of the
bald eagle was shared by Ameri-
cas- first great student of birds,
John James Audubon, born ten
years before Franklin died. In his
classic work on American birds,
AAAoS4444AOCA4l4y 444OoU1 dbCO WILL Ills
own paintings and published a
hundred years ago, Audubon quoted
with approval Franklin's condem-
nation.
And as if to give further point to
his opinion and Franklin's, he
painted the bald eagle with it's tai
ons clutching not the noble beast OF
the field which it had overcome, but
nothing more thrilling than huge
dead catf1shl
The quotation made by Audubon
from Franklin is introduced as fol-
lows:
In concluding this account Of
the whiteheaded eagle, suffer me
kind reader, to say how much
grieve that it should have been Sc
lected as the emblem of my country
The opinion of our great Franklin
on this subject, as it perfectly coin
cides with my own, I shall here pre-

WREN LIVES IN AUTO

Small Bird Builds Nest Between
Rear Spring and Axle of Car.
By United Press
SAN ANTONIO, Tex, July "A
small wren, twice deprived of its
home by workmen, built its nest
between the rear spring and axel
of Mrs Ellen S. Quillin's automo-
bile. The car has been driven 300
miles since the nest was built, Mrs.
Quillin estimates.
The bird first built it's home in
a pile of wood. 1t was spoiled
when workmen used the wood for
building a fence. The wren then
settled beneath a house, but was
shut out when a brick foundation
was constructed.
A bird house, suitable for wrens
has been placed near where Mrs
Quillin parks her car in hopes the
bird will move to a permanent home.

Five spires surmount the struc-

The exterior is arrayed in numerous

What to bid with Souths hand
often presents a problem to the
beginner. Shall he pre-empt
when holding a long suit and no
defensive strength?
Generally that is a good play,
but when you pre-empt you should
make it high enough in order to
shut out your opponents, and when
your long suit is a minor, some
times four-bid will not obtain the
desired result.
Then again pre-emptive bids
should be used sparingly-some-
times the only one who is con-
tronted with a problem is the part
ner.
Suppose that South starts with
bid of four clubs. North, with
his four quick tricks, can not be
asked to pass, especially with a
singleton club.
He knows that South undoubtedly
is afraid of both majors.
The most descriptive bid with
North's hand would be a response
OF four no trump, showing all of
the other suits we'll protected.
South would bid five clubs, an
nouncing that he was afraid to
play the hand at no trump and
that the clubs we're solid.
OF course North is little afraid
Of the heart suit, but he is justified
in going to six clubs.
The Play
West opens a spade The dunn
my would win with the ace and
then lead a club, and naturally
the f1nesse should not be taken.
West would show out, discarding
a spade. South then should cash
his ace and king of clubs, discard
ing spade and a heart from
dummy.
Now he must try for a coup
play on East, so his next play
should be the five of hearts, going
right up with the king in dunn
my.
East would win with the ace and
his best return is a spade, which
North would win with the king. Now
a heart is returned and trumped
by South.
His next play is a diamond,
which is won in dummy with the
jack. South must be careful not
to lead his king of diamonds, as
he needs that to get into dummy.
Another heart, and again South
trumpS. The nine of diamonds is
won in dummy with the queen.
Declarer casheS his ace of dia-
monds from dummy and then
plays either the spade or a heart.
which East is forced to ruff
South can overtrump and then
win the last trick.
or course, a slam can be made
at no trump if West would omen
a spade.
A heart opening, however would
mold the contract to four odd at no
trump.
