CONTRACT
7 w EXPERTS PLAY IT

the distribution of tho high cards and the strcgth is about evenly divided.
 Therefore. if you have what would be known as evon distribu- ton and Just normal strength. you have 0 right to try for tho partial score. Az you know, you and your partner botwoOn you have as much strength as your opponents, and it ig n proven fact that tho play or the hand generally. produces one trick.
 in all four hands arc divided ex- nctiy evenly, 1t follows that if you and your partner become the do- clnrer and dummy you can make tho odd trick while if the opp0. nentg play 1t at their suit, they can mako the odd trick.
 In tho one over ono system, we believe that if tho strength ig even. iy divided you are safo in opening with what might Do termed q weak fourth hand bid. If partner does not have moro than his share of strength, no will make c sisn off bid. ,
 Ho will givo you C chance by bidding ono no trump, but no more. The bid of ono no truinps says, "partner, 1 have not been dealt any more than average strength and I am not ihtorested In any further bidding"
 If the original bidder does not like tho no trump bid no can then sign off by fe.bidding his own suit.
 The point 1 wish to impress up. on you strongly today ig that there ib no danger In opening the weak third or fourth hand bids of the one over ono system if you Will heed the warning of the sien'off bids made by partner and Do care. fui in re.biddlns your own hand not to make c constructive bid ufi- less you wish tho bidding Go pro- coed further.

 ft is surprising to learn that many people believe that the one over ono system is not an entire system but is simply c convention applicable to q particular bid.
 it is true that there is one bid in tho ono over one system, name. ly tho overcailing of Q suit bid of one with Q suit bid of ono by tho partner. For example, the original bidder bids one heart and his part iier responds with . spade. This particular bid is known as a one over ono force. Many system arc adopting and applying this bid to
 Howevor, thIs Is by no means Q system. it differs. not tfi many re- spects, but in practioaliy every re. spect, from every other system.
 Its opening bids first and second hand are strong apd congtructive in nature. Third ahd fourth hand may open the bidding with weak hands. Tho principle that applies to tho one over one sysem ts the principle of common senso.
 There are several types Of bids, ail of which are very important. Jfirst---the opening bids Of first and second hand. They invite, but do no demand . response from part iief.

Those who saw Ann Harding and Richard Dix in "The Conquorors' were permitted to witness the trag- edieB of tho Standish family of two gef,erations ago in the rise and growth of q western town.
 This was ono thing that lm' pressed Itself on my mind. Mrs Standish was the evef-watehful, alert, breeding mother sensitive t6 danger and braying trouble eheerfuiiy and nobly when it came.
 Twieo she tried to prevent trag- edy. once when her little son went off with the old drunken doc. tor in c surrey to meet "rhe first train west" on that gala day when tho whole town of Fort Allen turn. cd out on masse to celebrate,
 She tried to stop him but Mir Standish, her rather stolid, good. natured banker husband laughed her out Of 1t. They'll Do oil right. Don't you worry. Let the child go," ho urged.
 They went, tho, horses frighten. cd at the black monster approach Ing, ran of, tore across the track and both riders woro killed.
 Years later her premonitIon of trouble concerning her future sons ln.law again proved to Do correct. Again her husband persuaded her not to worry--he knew tho boy, he said. Sh0 was entirely wrong
 But the son.ln.iaw being weak wrecked the bank. Call 1t woman s intuition but I call it C woman's sixth sense of safety. She is trnifi- cd that way through generatlons of playing guard to her. family, It used 10 be tho husband Tn Neanders thai times who scented danger and by manly proweas kept wild anis mais from the cave.
 Now 1 believe the tables have turned. Every woman is a modern Dlana. She gets the name of being q trouble. borrower, but in most eases she is right. gho hunts out danger and runs it down, mostly however by prevention.
 Too many husbands and fathers like Mir gtandish override their wives fears and laugh at their warnings. They call them fussy and accuse them Of crossing bridges. As C consequence mothers work alone without credit or aps preclation from their husbands.

The average person looks at eyes first of all when meeting q new person.
 But artists tell us that they look at mouths. Eyes can assume an expression of interest, alert ness, happiness. But mouths are themselves, the sum total of the inner attitude of a man or wo- man.
 That Is why your eyes may be tired and yet you may have an in. definite appealing quality Of charm just because your mouth has n gen- tieness, q sweetness, a seriousn ess of expression that makes folks realize q certain beatty that at. tracts.
 Too many women confuse charm with beautiful features. Too many girls have the ideal Of being beau tifui and, failing to create h fu. rore, became dise0ntented or en' Vi0us of someone who had succeed. cd.
 The past few years have made smartness and chic almost synono- nous with beauty. Those are pos' abilities for many woman who are downright homeIy.
 However, it seems to me too few women cultivate charm, Charm IS quality Of eharaetef, that grows as the years creep on, deepens with experience, Is richer through "Sss''sts No atctrIy ssIf.centerod. selfish person can have real, universal charm. It presupp0ses an interest in others, C consideration 0f them. C warmth and q generosity that carries a person outside ehPseif,
 Mouths reveal these qualities far more than eyes do, That Is why you should watch your mouths You can't just by wlll.poWer. make your mouth expressive. You must develop C frame Of mind that does the trick, Right now, to be placid, happy, optimistic is hard. But t can Dc done.
 Start mornings to try Co pick out the things for which you should be happy. Try to see the good in those about you, Try to appreciate your good health, your job, your assOcjates, During the day stick to your resolve t0 Dc eOnsidefate, give others a lift. The last thing at night, count your blessings, go t0 sleep happy! You will Dc surprised how your mouths expression responds 10 your mood and you will Dc delighted how your frame Of mind shows iB your face, That is q first step t0 chaFvp

 Mckee patted her arm. T know it isn't,' he said. But you must remember there are two side of tho picture. Most of them would give their right eye to be behind the footlights. They envy you, Sheila.'
 Tho season rolled on. The play was n success and Sheila was win- ming recognition ns dancer. Newspaper criticisms of tho play always mentioned her name, Sometimes this praise was ex- travagnnt. It didn't make her more popular with the other prin- cIpals in the company but tho manager appreciated it.
 Mckee liked to seq her receive god notices, He continued to in- Vite her to suppers after the show, to show hor little fayors and give her advice from his long experience. These attentions were always impersonal. Often he talked about his wife and family. He never tried to make love to Shein.
 PrcsGntly the Snmpcr Sisters arrived 10 join the troupe, Parts hnd ben written into tho show for them, It was felt that "Heigh- Ho" needed some new material and tho Sampers act provided that. The girls dressed exactly alike. They came on tho stage with litle shffl- ing steps, grooming n song in close harmony that was unlike any other singing Sheila had ever heard.
