break as many fresh eggs over the top
as there are persons to be served. Dis
tribute the eggs evenly over the sur
face, so that when helping out the
preparation, each person gets a rela-
lively similar amount of the escalloped
fish with the egg frosting. Dot the
yolk of each egg with butter, to keep
it moist. Return the dish to the oven,
and when the whites of the eggs are
done, the yolks will be also. Sprinkle
whites lightly with paprika and serve

A Sermon for Today
By REV. JOHN r. GUM.
Dig Down Where You Are.

"out of whose hills thou mayest dig
brass" ."-Deut., viii.9.
/, These hills, of which Moses spoke as
containing treasures of brass, were hills
in the promised land of Canaan, to-
ward which the Children of Israel were
journeying. It was to inspire them with
an incentive to press on toward their
goal that Moses spoke Of these treas
ured hills. In all probability your land
of promise is right where you are; in
the familiar fields and hills over which
you pass daily there are all sorts Of
treasures. You do not need to journey
into some far-away land to win life's
treasures and rewards. Dig down where
you are!
Many Of us remember hearing DR..
Russell Conwells great lecture, Acres
of Diamonds" The central idea in
that lecture was this: ''The reason why
most men fail is that they do not take
advantage Of the opportunities where
they are, but are always dreaming that
success Is somewhere else"
To illustrate this thought, DR.. Con-
well told the story of man who lived
in Africa. He could not make living
where he was, so he decided to sell his
place at great sacrifice, move away and
start all over again. He did so. Some
years afterward, he came back to see
the old home place. To his amaze
ment he found a beautiful home, lovely
grounds, veritable fairyland of trees
and flowers. He inquired how all this
came about. He was told that the man
who bought the place determined to
find out what there was in it. He dug
down where he was and discovered q
rich diamond mine.
Dig down where you are. Use the
chances that are near you. Somebody
is going to succeed in your town. Why
not you? Do not go gadding about in
search of distant opportunities and pass
up those that lie right at your own
door. Not all the gold mines are in
Alaska
I once lived in a mining district and
some one told me of a mining pros
pector who sold out his mining rights
on piece of land after many months
OF fruitless prospecting. Within a few
days the purchaser dug into "a pocket
of gold" worth $4,000.
Rolling stones gather no moss" It
may be you can do better in some other
line than that in which you are now
engaged, or go elsewhere and achieve
larger success. But that is problemat-
ical. Nine to one your best chance is
right at hand. Right beneath your feet
there may be "a gold pocket" There
may be diamond min on that old
plantation of yours. Dig down where
you are!

However, If your partner should surpris-

raise him to six on the strength of

a flve-card suit it is not unlikely that
the suit holdings are exactly matched
numerically in the two hands. This

It Is, Of course, clear that unless
your partner has shaded his three-no-

for you to hold suit which would

or to hold enough primary tricks in a
short-suited hand to make up two

R. C. A. PLANS SYSTEM
OF RADIO.TELEGRAPH
Notifies q. s. Commission It In
tends to Request High-Fre-
quercy Permit.

The Radio Corporation Of America
yesterday informed the Radio Commits
sion that it planned to apply for per-
mission to create a domestic radio
telegraph system operating on an un-
usually high frequency to compete with
commercial wire telegraph companies.
"It seems probable" the corporation
said in a letter, that equipment now
considered most useful for domestic
telegraphy will be on the road to obso-
lescence when devices and methods
which the engineers now foresee have
been further developed, and that then
entirely different frequencies will be
found most useful for the purpose"
The corporation also said 1t intended
to abandon applications filed in 1927,
now tied-up in court litigation, for fire.
quencies Of 5000 to $4,000 kilocycles in
favor Of frequencies Of more than 10000
kilocycles.
The commercial use of frequencies
above 10000 kilocycles, the corporation
said, began with the development and
installation by it of the Inter-Island
Radio Telephone System in Hawaii
which has been successfully operated
for more than a year by the Mutual
Telephone Co.
