is correct. B should have led his
j Of hearts, trusting his partner
to hold either the Ace, @, or
both. Instead of doing this,
which would have enabled his
side to win one heart, one club,
and two diamond tricks, thus
defeating the game contract, B
led his singleton club, seeking
a ruff.
Dummy's @ forced AS Ace,
and that player gave B the ruff
he sought. B felt it possible,
even if not probable, that AS
strength lay in spades, rather
than in diamonds, as A had
doubled, instead of again sup
porting one of the red suits
shown by B.
AS A had supported hearts,
B felt that his proper lead was
the K Of hearts, to remove
from dummy that ace of entry.
Had A held as good a spade as
the Q, BIS reasoning would
have been excellent. AS it was,
that heart lead just played
into the declarer's hands.
Dummy's Ace of hearts won
the third trick. AS B had
ruffed with the @ it was 1ea-
sonably certain that he held no
more trumpS, so the declarer
led the K of clubs. Upon it he
discarded his last heart. Then
Y trumped low club, causing
AS j to fall, and establishing
in dummy two long clubs.
Led Ace and King
The declarer led his Ace and
K of spades. then picked up
AS last trump, by leading a
low spade and winning with
dummy's j. Upon the two
long clubs in dummy, the de-
clarer discarded two diamonds.
He ruffed a return lead of
hearts, then ran off his spades.
At the end he had to give his
opponents one diamond trick.
Losing only one club. one ruff
and one diamond gave the de-
claring side its doubled con-
tract of four.
AS there. was no diamond
honor to trap in dummy, what
A should have done before he
gave his partner the ruff in
clubs was to have led off his
Ace of diamonds, then when B
had ruffed the club, B could
have led his K Of diamonds,
defeating the contract. What
A thought was that B might
hold two spades. Having won
one ruff, possibly B might OBJ
tain a second ruff by putting
A in the lead with a diamond.
Sometimes too close calcula-
tionS upset natural actions.
Even if w had gone down one
trick on their contract they
would have gained. as ABB had
a spread of five-odd.

Optimist
BY ALINE MICHAELIS
Not For Reward

Why grieve that life must
often be unkind
And seem to mock the hunger
of the soul?
Why question the decree by
which we find
The fruit of toiling years is but
a dole?
Not for reward was this adven-
ture planned,
Not just that in the end there
might be paid
Fees great or small into each
grasping hand:
' Life brings a challenge, meet
it unafraid!
Thrust out old bitterness and
old regret
For all the golden hours that
might have been;
Not life, but we are debtors,
pay the debt
And let no thought Of loss
come skulking in.
Not for reward was this ad-
venture planned;
But that new heights be
gained, dark gulfs be

Remember Only Medicine Helps A Sore Throot

Reduces Infection, Eases Pain
Instantly. Gargling with Bayer
Aspirin will do three things: Relieve
soreness at once. Allay infamma-
ton. AND-reduce infection; which
is the important thing in fighting a
sore throat.
1t requires medicine-like BAY
ER ASPIRIN-to do these thingsl
That is why throat specialists
throughout America are prescfib-
ing this BAYER gargle in place of
old-time ways. Results are quick

Be careful. however, that you

A Practical Hint

Colored thread, just as
colored material, will fade un-
less the best boil fast thread is
used. In many of the so-called
bargain dresses cheap thread
is often used, the manufac-
turers thinking that women
will overlook this detail.
The best dressmakers, of
course, demand good mercerized
thread, guaranteed boil fast.
They know that, when inferior
thread is used, their dresses
are likely to split at the seams
and the thread to fade.

When Manners
Are Correct
By MRS. BEECKMAN
Name Succession

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
My husbands name is John
Jones, jr., but since his father
died when he was a little boy,
very few people know him as
junior. In the event of a son
being born, we would like to
name him John Jones also,
and we are puzzled whether it
would be correct to call him
John Jones, jr., or John Jones,
third? - j.
You do not say if your hus-
bands mother is also dead, and
this fact would make the diff
ference. If she is living, she
is Mrs. John Jones, and your
husband is John H. Jones, jr.
Then your son would be John
Jones, third.
But if your husbands mother
is dead, then you husband is
now John Jones-not John
Jones, junior-and your son
would be John Jones, jr.

time and love. Do you think
another woman would try to re-

or would bitterness be all she'd

Many wise men have said,
in different ways, that we get
otit of life what we put into
life. Life is like a mirror which
reflects our own faces. Look
into it with bitterness and you
will get bitterness in return.
No indeed. sister. with two bows
who probably think you're the
finest thing in their lives, I
shouldn't treat them to an ex-

boys like to see their mothers
looking we'll dressed and attrac-

to remember them as kind
hearted. Take the clothes and
the luxuries and thank heaven
