 Total receipts. including the payments with the dollar penalty last year were $53,00O. The great part of that sum came into the office during the closing days of the month. It is expected that similar situation will arise next week when delinquents flock to the city hall to escape the penalty. The lines of payers have not been noticed to any extent so far. but they will gradually increase to reach out into the street before the end of the month it is believed.

A snow squall came up this noon very suddenly which threatened to develop into a real old fashioned blizzard. but it did not last long and disappeared almost as suddenly as 1t had set in and in it's wake the sun came out in all it's glory, so that people who were about the streets scarcely knew what to make of. It was just another evidence of the vagaries of New England weather. CT

Lace is again smart. We
might almost say 1t Is new, for
1t dropped from the fashion
picture almost entirely for o few
winter months. Even women
who already had lace gowns
seemed to stop wearing them,
and few women bought them, or
could find them In the stores.
Then suddenly the last month.
perhaps because there has been
a breath Of spring in the air,
lace has come into fashion
prominence again, Reports Of
all smart gatherings mention
new laces. and the stores again
show lovely gowns Of the new
patterns.
Dull Types Best
A dull surface Is still a char.
acteristic Of the better laces,
and some Of them have a de-
cidedly raised thread, which
gives them added beauty and
texture interest. They are fair
ly heavy; so that they hang
beautifully and make a really
substantial gown. People who
are travelling South or going on
cruises seem particularly par
tial to them because Of their
excellent qualities Of neither
crushing nor showing wear cas-
lily. You can fold them into q
small space, but when you take
them out and let them air, they
look just as well as ever.
In WOmen's Sizes
Light colors seems best for
the new gowns, with white
foremost, and lovely tints such
as apricot, pale blues, yellow or
flesh tints lovely also. OF
course there are q fair number
of blacks SEEN, too. We've
sketched a stunning gown in
women's sizes, Of rather heavy
lace with dull surface and
raised thread. The gown is cut
with surplice bodice, has a low
back, and a separate jacket
with cape sleeves that trans
forms it into a dinner or supper
gown. It comes in white,
apricot or blue and is. priced
$3.50 in a downtown store.
There are equally lovely gowns
in misses sizes, too.

At noon he came home. He
had a sore throat and q head
ache, he said. His hands were
hot and dry and his gray eyes
glittered with fever.
AS she helped him off with
his clothes Mary Faith observed
that he had bought himself a
new shirt and q new blue and
white polka-dotted tie. He had
been wearing polka-dotted ties
exclusively the last few weeks.
Evidently the blond girl in the
drug store admired polka dots.

Mrs. Farrell. She was all agog
at the thought Of seeing Dr.,
Thatcher. BY the time the doc
tor arrived. she had changed
into q clean house dress and
had established herself in a
chair at Kim's bedside, where
she sat looking much too large
for the small neat rc0n1.
''Well, doctor, what's wrong
with our boy? Just a little

Acute Bronchitis
But DR.. Thatcher said it was
not sore throat this time. but
acute bronchitis. He looked
gravely at Mary Faith when
he said it.

fresh air, Mrs. Kim. And don't
let this fellow smoke or have
anything but water and broth
and orange juice. 'I'll send UP

His orders sounded simple
enough, but Mary Faith found
them anything but simple to
carry out. For Mrs. Farrell
opposed her at every turn.

cause the cashew is so highly
endowed with vital food values,
it is becoming a popular fixture
in the diets of many American
homes.
Did you know that there are
three types of baking powder

tartrate and that food experts
have discovered that for best
results these different types

pointed out. But she might

Budgets and Bread

In these days when economy
has assumed q place Of major
Importance in every household
and it Is advantageous to- get
the greatest value possible for
every cent spent on food you
will find, more than ever, that
bread is a real help in keeping
the budget down and the fam
ily'S, health up.
Good quality bread, rich with
milk, wheat, shortening and
sugar, contains the food ele-
ments necessary for growth.
It is one of the cheapest Of
foods and its adaptability as a
basis for new dishes made with
leftover foods is practically end
less.
Here are some suggestions
that will help you make left
overs exciting news to your
family:
Hot sandwiches for luncheon
are becoming more and more
popular. Use last nights roast
beef or lamb and serve slices
Of it on bread using warmed
up gravy to cover. For a cold
luncheon try buttering three
slices Of bread, placing a slice
Of roast beef between the first
and second slices and a layer
of asparagus between the sec
ond and third. Serve with
mustard and mayonnaise.
After holiday dinners there
usually isn't much trouble get
ting rid Of the duck but II you
want to make it particularly
appetizing for a midnight lunch
or Sunday night supper take
two slices Of bread and spread
generously with butter. Put
several thin slices Of duck on
one slice and spread the second
with apricot jam. Put together
and cut in half diagonally.
Here's q dinner dish that
lookA @Ow and tastes wonderful.
The Washington times., 1933-01-23

In order to determine how
efficient your memory Is you
must realize, first Of all, that
there are different varieties Of
memory.
What psychologists call "Rote
Memory" may be looked upon as
the simplest form Of memory,
What it signifies, really, Is
merely the repetition Of q series
Of digits, letters, words, SEN
tences, actual objects seen, pic
lures Of objects and the like.
Rote memory is q parrot"
kind Of recall. The impressions
so into the mind and out again
rapidly. They are not made an
integral part Of our thinking.
We do not reason about them.
It's like remembering telephone
numbers. Being able to recall
them is merely q "stunt" Of
your mental processes. .
In order to test your rote
memory, as good a way as any
Is to have someone call off
numbers with four, five, six,
seven and eight digits in them.
For example: Your collaboration
says repeat 2769, this being q
number Of four digitS. Then
he tries you out on another
number Of five and then six
digits. ~
NOTE: If you can repeat a
number Of six digitS your note
memory is average and normal.
When it comes to what might
be termed the more difficult
types Of memory, we enter the
field Of Logical Memory"
Logical memory is the men,
ory for ideas. It is not more
difficult to remember connected
material that has q meaning
than disconnected and more or
less senSeless impressions, but
logical memory is, as well, much
more useful to us in building
UP a reserve store Of knowledge.
The reason we forget so much
Is because we so often employ
rote instead Of logical memory
to fix an impression.
Link up a new fact that you
see or hear with something else
that is already well fixed in

"
Where only a single biddable
suit is held, the demand bidder
should hold within one trick Of
game, as z did when he made
an opening bid Of two hearts.
Instead Of supporting upon his
single quick trick and three
small trumps, Y had the sense
to bid two spades. This suit
overcall plainly told z that Y
held one or both of the missing
black aces.
Had z either rebid his hearts
or supported spades at once,
probably bidding would have
ceased at game, but z wanted
to discover whether his partner
held the black aces. z bid two
no trumpS, obligating his part
ner to support hearts, rebid
spades, show another suit, or
support no truynpS. Once fore
ing, always forcing, when an
opening bid Of two Of a suit an
nounces game at something, and
the response shows a quick trick.
US answer of three hearts
rather plainly showed that he
held only one Of the two miss
ing aces, or he would have sup
ported the no trumpS. Feeling
confident that Y held five or six
spades, z ended bidding with
six spades. Y discarded two of
his hearts on rs clubs and
ruffed both Of his losing dia-
mondS, thus fulfilling his small
slam contract. Only four-odd
could have been made at hearts
or five-odd at no trumpS.
Had AS and Y'S cards been
1nterchanged, q small slam
could have been made at clubs,
losing only a single spade trick.
Had the original holdings of
Y and B been reversed, five odd
could have been made at hearts,
losing a single spade trick and
one club trick.
When the opening bidder has
what he advertises by his two
bid, almost invariably there
must be a game at the best call
for the joint 26 cards Of his
side.
Few experts IBID to the score"
Because two-odd at spades will
give you game, do not make
that opening bid unless you
you would do so at a love score.
How is your partner to know
when you expect a slam or when
you are bidding to make a small
score, If you make the same
opening bid in both cases?
