Although everyone doesn't realize
it, our navy is & valuable support to
the American people in time of peace
as we'll as war.
The first fame gained by the
American navy was during the War
of 1912. In this war, although we
were far outnumbered by the Eng
lish, we were recognized as dam
gerous enemy. In fact, some people
said that we won the war. Our sal
lors were and still are of the best, as
are also our battleshipS.
In the period between the War of
1912 and the World War the navy
played an important part in our
welfare.
Until 1874 there were no telegraphs
and ships had to carry news and i'm
portant papers back and forth be-
tween Europe and America.
During the World War our navy
carried soldiers to and from France
and England, Drawing the dangers of
submarine attack and the other dan

they are dangerous foes. The sailors
go forth and encounter them, often

that will sink it. They run all these
risks without a word Of complaint,
and often are killed in the encounter,
but always meeting death with a
courageous smile.
The merchant marines carry goods
from our country to +. every other
country in the world and usually
bring back the profits safely. This
is a result of the care taken in build
ing the ships and the excellent train
ing of the men so that they can meet
any emergency.
The American navy is posted at
different parts Of the world where
there are foreign possessions belong
ing to the United States. In case
of an uprising among the natives Of
the country, the sailors. who are also
trained at warfare, go to the defense
of the rightful parties, usually put
ting an end to the fighting.
In case of an emergency such as
an earthquake, it is noticeable that
the American navy is about the first
to be called and the first to volunteer
services.
American ships carry the American
flag to various parts OF the world,
raising it on special occasions, rep
resenting America and the president
at any time and always ready to en-
force our laws or to defend the hon.
or of America and Americans at any
cost.
The main service Of the navy is
the confidence it gives to the Amer
lean people. We wouldn't dare hold
our own against older foreign coun-
tries or make international laws If
we didn't know that we had a strong
navy to defend us always.

it can be heartily recommended
because it is so cool, easy to
launder, and preserves such a
good appearance. Organdie is
used too, to make crisp little
blouses that are exceedingly
smart as guimpeS for sleeveless
dresses, or with skirts. You can
select little short tuck-ins, the
kind that are best for suspender
dresses and high-waisted skirts,
or you can find short, fashion
able overblouseS.
Guimpe or Blouse
Four girls playing bridge
model some of the new blouses
for you. On the left, in the
top corner, is a sheer, refresh
ing bit of crispness made Of
organdie. This material has a
permanent finish, so that it
will not become limp after it
has been laundered. The bow is
the type that is sometimes
called a "cat's whiskers" bow,
and the sleeves are tiny puffs.
This blouse is neither formal
nor informal, so would go with
almost any kind of a suit that
wasn't too sport-like, or could
be used as a guimpe. Below is
another blouse Of the same per-
manent finish organdie, this

People who are looking for
way to vary their summer suits,
silk, linen or sheer wool, should
investigate the very adorable
cotton and linen blouses that
are now seen around town.
Suits must be worn on cool or
dark days, and for travelling,
and many Of them either have
a blouse that is too hot for
summer, or that is too perish
eble to knock about in all the
time. The answer is not only
easy, but it is smart and in
expensive too. For with the
popularity of suits, Of suspender
dresses that require guimpes,
and Of high-waisted skirts that
make blouses easy to wear, there
are blouses in attractive pro-
fusion.

Your Health and Diet
By Logan Clendening, M. D.

FROM the very dawn OF
time man has worshipped the
sun. Many human religions
still surviving are based upon
sun worship. Traces Of this
old substratum are retained in
other religions-churches are
built east and west so that the
sun will rise behind the high
altar and the settling sun
throw its rays from the west
ern window Of the nave to-
ward the holy Of holes.
Lord and giver Of life-so
man has always regarded the
sun. And for good and Sufti"
cient reasons from the stand"
point of health. The sun is
an absolute necessity to vege-
tation. And equally to animals.
Summer is the time to get
this best Of all tonics. And IN
its natural form it is better
than in any artificial form.
The use of light in medicine
is not very old. F'insen, OF
Copenhagen, began about 30
years ago to use light for the
treatment of skin diseases, and
this custom has spread until
lights of one kind or another
are probably the most used
and most useful of remedies
for the skin.
Roller, Of Switzerland, star
tied the world not long ago
by the results he obtained in
the use of sunlight in different
forms of tuberculosis. In bone
tuberculosis he often took OF
casts and braces and exposed
the patients to the bright sun
light Of the Alps. Infection
disappeared, sinuses closed UP
and healing took place rap
idly.
RicketS is another disease
which is cured by exposure to
sunlight. In fact, it is brought
on most often by lack Of sun
light. It occurs in cities, eS.
pecially in streets Of tall tene-
ment houses constantly in
shadow, and the smoke Of in
dustry hanging between the
children and the sun.
The wore "SunkisSed" ap-
piled to foods should have a
real meaning. SunkisSed foods

or eggs, or even milk from sun

She asked, aghast, But are
YOU very sure? I mean, 1t
doesn't seem very reaSonable!"
"It isn't unreasonable, is it?"
he asked her, laughing.
She said, after moment,
IF I accept, it means
"Marriage?"
She nodded her dark head
unsmilingly.
Cannot Approve
He said gravely, I'm afraid
I can't approve Of that any
more than Sarah does. But if
your mind is made up" He
gestured briefly, and then
smiled at her. And I deplore
the fact that by marrying you
will give up a career. Mind,
1 don't offer you that with me.
There's no future in turning
amanuensiS to an egotistical
lawyer, you know, but perhaps
it would tide you over this
time of depression and then,
later, when business picks up

She said brokenly, IT can't

Don't try. Is it a bargain?"
She nodded. "AS far as am
concerned. But I'd have to stay
at the bank a while longer
until one of the girls in my
department could be trained to
take my place."
II understand that perfectly"
He rose. Come, the cars out
side. Let's forget business for
time and take a drive
through the park and perhaps
up the Hudson for dinner. Do
you like frogs legs? Good!
So do II"
It was q pleasant drive, a
pleasant dinner. Dwight was
his wittiest self; he talked in
cessantly, almost nervously,
always entertainingly. It was
still quite early when he left
her at the door of the apart
ment. She thanked him, say
ing good night, and as she did
so, he held her hand a moment.
May I be very banal?"
"You couldn't be-" she as

Thanks; that's sweet Of you.
I wonder if Mr.. Thomas Shep-
ard knows how Internally lucky
he is"
Lynn drew her hand away.
"I hope So," she answered
gayly. II hope that he knows
it and that he isl"
Dwight watched her enter the
apartment house, stood there a
moment bareheaded on the
pavement, climbed back into
his car again and gave an ad'
dress; not that of his apart
ment. AS the car slid away
through the night, he pondered
on himself, ironically amazed.
What exactly had he done?
Offered to take girl on for
work which was practically
nonexistent! He'd have to make
an attempt to get the scat
tered notes Of some of his big
cases together. OF course he'd
planned to do a startling book
at some future date-very fu-
ture. In addition, he was COM
mitting himself to an expen-
diture which he couldn't afford.
He was up to his ears in debt.
Yet his cursed canity had
been unable to permit him to
let Lynn down. Moreover, he
had offered Lynn Harding q
position in order that she
might marry that young cub
Shepard!
OF all the sublime idiocies!
Had he not offered the job,
she probably would have post
poned her marriage indefinitely

ABB were Vulnerable. 4-A were
not vulnerable. Satisfied that
probably some player had a
heart declaration, If allowed to
show it, z made an opening bid
of 4-Spades, although he lacked
the sort of hand which the
majority of players would bid
as dealer. Really the bid was
well calculated to hold the con-
tract. Alb were using "the
challenge" obl:gating partner
to bid, unless he can defeat
the bid that is challenged.
In response to AS challenge.
B bid 5-Hearts. z bid 5-SpadeS.
OF course A did not know
whether or not his partner held
any strength, and he considered
it safer to double the 5-Spades
than to assist what might be
hopeless weakness. B knew
how his partner must feel, and
having genuine strength, B bid
6-Hearts, intending to double
6-SpadeS, if bid. But B held
the contract, undoubled.
The opening lead was the K
of spades. Dummy's lowest
club was discarded, and B's
Ace won the trick. The moment
the dummy was spread, the
declarer gave z credit for hav-
ing both the K of clubs and
the K of diamonds. If z held
even one trump there should be
a small slam. In case Y held
the missing j Of diamonds, or
all four missing trumps, only
a small slam would be safe to
attempt.
The short club suit appeared
less dangerous to lead, before
trumps were pulled. B led his
top club; z put up the 10;
dummy's Q won the trick. AS
his side held solid trumps,
dummy's 2 of hearts was over
taken with the declarer's 8, in
order to again lead a club while
pulling trumps with return
leads from dummy. z dis
carded his 2 of spades, showing
that Y held four hearts. B led
his last club; rs j covered; AS
Ace won the trick. B won his
fifth trick by leading dummy's
8 of hearts, and overtaking
with his own 10.
Having no more clubs, the
declarer led his top diamond.

overtaking with the declarer's
Ace.
If readers are going to play
hands, strictly upon what they
see in front of them on the
printed diagrams, they may re-
mark that a grand slam can be
made. But in actual play such
tactics bring only grief. B did
not know that Y might not be

Advice to the
Lovelorn
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX

Tried to Make Her Jealous
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
I had been going with a girl
I'll call Joan for about four
months. We both cared for
one another, but recently she
has changed. I had paid a
good deal Of attention to her
girl friend, Marie. when she
was around, thinking it would
make her jealous. Joan IS one
of the sweetest girls a fellow
could ever hope to meet, and
Marie is a nice girl also. but
the only reason I have been
paying attention to her Is to
make Joan jealous.
Now Joan has stepped out OF
the picture altogether, leaving
us to our own resources, and l
am moody and blue and every
thing seems to go wrong with
me. Please advise me as to
what to do, as I am in a
quandary what step to take
next. JIM.
First of all, Jim. I think I
wouldn't invite Marie to step
out any more for the present.
Don't make any explanations,
either. Joan will probably
understand that you do not
like Marie If you stop taking
her out. She will also know
that you are not taking any
one else out, either; for some
how girls seem to get that in.
formation without doing any
gre t detective work. Then in
a few weeks you might send
Joan some flowers, or candy,
or both. and follow that up
with a telephone call asking
her to go to the show. Best
Of luck to you. ---

Chapter XXI

Dwight was very understand
ing. His face was impassive as
Lynn stumbled through her
explanation. At intervals he
said, "I see," and fingered a
small gold clock which stood
on the polished vastness Of his
desk.
It was the first time Lynn
had been in his office. He was
housed halfway up the great
pyramidical height Of the Sea-
coast Building. Save for the
desk there was little of the
office about his private room;
it was more like a library.
There were paneled walls and
built.in bookcases; there was
nothing Somber about the drap-
cries or the fine Oriental rug
on the floor; nothing massively
oppressive about the chairs,
the occasional furniture. There
were no photographs in the
room, but over the fireplace,
in which green boughS had been
heaped in Difference to the
season, there was a portrait
not of a woman, but Of a little
son whom David Dwight and
his wife had lost during the
first years of their marriage.
There were flowers in the
room, gay and fragrant.
His office force, for his per-
Sonal secretary, an elderly, mar
row-ipped. dour-faced woman,
had all gone home by the time
Lynn had arrived, coming di-
rectly from the bank, catch
ing her breath at the upward
swoop of the elevator and
wishing, somehow, that she
had not made this appointment.
Doubts Set at Rest
But Dwight's reception of
her had dispelled her form
less doubts, and now she sat
smiling at him from the depths
of an armchair, waiting for
him to speak.
If he had sustained a blow
she could not know it. He said
gently:
II appreciate your situation.
I could, of course, give you let
ters-a lot of letters. I know
so many people; have a finger
in several pies. But as our
Sarah has probably told you,
as you doubtless know yourself,
most concerns are cutting down
their staffs. I can, as it hap
pens," he went on, "offer you
a rather anomalous job-with
myself"
She demurred hurriedly.
flushing: Please, I didn't mean
that. I-why, what" she
asked in Observation-Disclosures
could you find for me to do?
II can keep on downstairs
perfectly we'll"
mot so fast. You haven't
had any Secretarial training?"
None. Just tipping"
II thought so. That's what
I WOULD be willing to offer you.
You see, I'm writing book" He
smiled. IT know it's a con-
feSSion Of weakness and I have
no intention of publishing it
now. It might be better if it
were published posthumously!
But I need someone I can trust
to get my notes into shape, to
do the first rough typing and
eventually the reviSionS of this
egotistical and biographical
expression Of myself.
IT had thought of giving it
to Miss Mays-my secretary
but she has enough to do as
it is. Moreover, I have other
things that a home secretary
could do for me which would
not involve dictation as much
as, say, bookkeeping, tact and
the ability to use the English
language on her own initiative.
I should require you to work
at the apartment, and perhaps
at my place on Long Island
not here at the office. And I

grown-ups. In fact, anybody
and everybody. And summer
is the time to do it. The sun

your body, on your skin, just

Therefore go outdoors abun-

A careful player always con-

he takes those that appear the
least threatening. The follow
