You've probably found out al
ready that you can do a great
deal to your appearance by
juggling your accessories. This
season in particular, with SO
much white worn, and with
combination of color a domi-
nant note, you can change a
mere dress many times by dlf-
ferent scarf, bag, gloves and hat.
Any color ensemble you want
to work out is smart, whether
matching in fabric or not. And
it's easy to match up accessor-
les in both fabric and color,
now that pique and linen are
found in everything from bags
to hats and gloves.
Good Color Ideas
Bags are an important point
that we haven't had time to
touch on this season, and
there's much news in them.
First is the color idea, which,
although not new, is different
this year. Buy a red bag to
wear with your white, your
navy, your black. Buy a pas

AS North had declined to sup
port hearts, it would have been
unwise to lead the ace of that
suit. East would have ruffed
the lead. Dummy could have
ruffed two diamonds, and the
third diamond would have been
discarded upon dummy'S K OF
hearts.
A trump lead by South would
have made things very easy for
the declarer. His 9 would have
won the first trick in case North
ducked, or the K would have
won the first trick had North
put up his 10. Dummy would
have trumped three diamonds.
The declarer would have trump
ed two hearts. East would have
gained entry to his hand, after
trumping off his losers, by
leading a low club from dummy
then he would have taken two
leads of high spades, leaving
the balance of his cards good.
Either the spade or the heart
opening lead would have made
things easier for the declarer
than the opening diamond lead.
Instead of making any one
Of the three opening leads that
cannot fail to yield the declarer
fulfillment of his grand slam
contract, suppose South should
lead his lowest club. AS the
declarer must ruff off three
diamonds, and cannot afford to
ruff three hearts, he must win
the opening lead with his Ace
of clubs. He will make dummy
trump a diamond. He must
trump a heart. Dummy will
trump a second diamond, and
this must be done with the J,
as you will see later. The de-
clarer will trump a second heart
lead, and dummy must trump
the declarer's third diamond,
using the @ of spades, and re-
tanning the 7 of spades.
Having dummy trump in the
odd manner described never
would be done unless the de-
clarer saw an opponents hand,
or unless he held a wonderful
hunch that North held the twic-
guarded 10 of spades. It is not
impossible that East might in
fer this trump situation from
South'S bidding and the fact
that he led low club. In case
the declarer played his trumps
in dummy as if he saw oppos-
ing hands. he can make his
grand slam, but not otherwise.
Having ruffed off all his losers
the declarer can lead the z of
spades from dummy. He can
win with his 8 if North plays
low and win with his K if
North covers with the 10. That
finesse will leave every card
good in the declaring hand, and
it will give him fiis contract,
but the club lead will defeat
anything except double-dummy
play.

faculties, the generation that
follow it is likely to be handi-
capped even worse. For when
defects appear on a wholesale
scale, persons who are defective
marry and reproduce their kind,
and in the children these de-
fects, instead of being checked,
grow more marked. This, in
fact, is exactly the way in which
much of our insanity and feeble

Indeed, the dire mental effects
of g. war are not generally con-
sidered.
The struggle for advancement
has been a long and hard one
during the course of the cen

The Beauty
Box
By HELEN FOLLETT

Beauty is an exquisite, fas-
tidious, lovely commodity, a
composition of graceful lines,
glorious coloring, glad rags and
expensive riggings. But 1t
doesn't ring the bell if it does
not include brains, gracious
manners, a nice, neighborly
feeling for other mortals. Those
fluffy dollies with gaga eyes
and melting buttery smiles are
out of step with this upcom-
ing world wherein women are
flying airplanes, getting polit-
ical jobs, carrying on. Every
body knows the beauty formula
isn't complete unless intelli-
gence is an ingredient. If a
woman has brains she's bound
to have beauty of one kind or
another.
Tissues around the eyes are
soft, easy prey to fine creases.
When Slathering on the per-
fumed cream at night, give this
part Of the face careful, spe-
cial attention. Do light five
finger exercises upon it, hold
ing the flesh flat with the left
hand while the fingers of the
right hand do a brisk hammer
ing. Let the cream remain on
over night. In the morning
bathe the eyes first with hot
water. then with cold. They
like that.
It looks more and more like
a short hair season. The longer
the locks, the more trouble they
give. When the permanent
wave is fresh laid, ends all
curly-cued, it is a temptation
to let it go it's own way, de-
velop into pigtail material. But,
somehow or other, the long
bob does not set off the saucy
lid as does the coiffure with
sleek wave lines, a. few ring
let's at the rear. And tresses
of shoulder length will always
look juvenilian.

with any other man. I always
try to be nice to him. If you

these protective values that

In other words, when a

concerned. What it has not yet

It seems strange that civiliza-

Is He Afraid to Call?

4S nc AAEaAU VO N@A6
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I am 25 and in love with my
girl friends brother, who is two
years younger than I. When
I am calling at their home, he is
very friendly, but he has never
asked me out. His sister is a
very jealous girl, and because she
is older than her brother she
does not want him to go with
any girl steadily. I am afraid
that if I ask him to my house
he will tell his sister and she
won't let him go, because as a
rule, he minds her. And I
don't want to lose her friend
ship. DOLORES.
I'd go ahead and invite him
to call, anyway. Why any
young man should be so in
awe of an older sister that he
is afraid to call on one of her
friends, sounds too strange to
be true. Sometimes, when we
care a lot, our imaginations
conjure up 'bogies" which do
not exist really. Just treat
him as if he had no terrifying
older sister.
