The Rhymins
Optimist
BY ALINE MICHAELIS
The Artists Sweetheart


I know that you have made me
live
Upon the canvas there:
Although, perforce, your brush
must give
More beauty than my share;
But in your eyes-ah! we'll, I
know
You saw me full Of grace,
And that is why you limned
me so,
Fair form and ardent face.
Another artisV might have said:
"She lacks this hue, that line,
With too much pride she lifts
her head,
Her hands are far from fine"
But you have glimpsed within
the clay
What others cannot see,
A spirit shining as the day,
The inner self of me;
And you have painted what I
seem
To loves Transforming sight;
Not just a woman, but a dream
OF all things pure and bright!

"Those beasts of men! I hate
them ALL" Zella had banged
her pillow viciously.
But a still small voice of
truth informed Zella this
wasn't entirely so. .Zella had
been poisoning out herself
these days of spring. shed a
man-friend, a painter down in
Greenwich Village who seemed
to think the world and all of
her.
II couldn't care for him in
thousand years." But it was
flattering, just the same, that
this lover of beauty who con-
tinually sought to put it on his
canvases, should fall for her. .,
Well, life was a queer miX-up.
You never got what you wanted
unless you we're hard-boiled,
and went right out after it,
and grabbed it, as Loranda had
done.

Contract
B1idse
By E. v. SHEPARD

A teacher is supposed to cor
rect faults in a clients game.
A player in an ordinary game
is not supposed to give instruc-
tionS. When a player has full
filled his contract, usually he
feels satisfied, perhaps he is a
bit proud. Certainly he does
not want any ordinary player
to take him to task for the way
he played. Don't nag your
partner every time he employs
different methods from those
you would use. The declarer
of the hand shown below was
quite peeved when his partner
took him to task on technique.
Particularly after he had made
a small slam and the methods
suggested by partner would not
have done so we'll.

When Manners
Are Correct
By MRS. BEECKMAN
Eating Sandwiches

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
When ordering a cold sand
wich in a restaurant, is it
proper to cut the sandwich in
small parts and use your knife
and fork while eating it? AS l
understand it, it is proper to
eat a cold sandwich as served.
They are usually cut three
ways and therefore are very
convenient to handle with the
fingers.
Please publish the correct
form in your column as it has
become an argumentative point
in our crowd. L.
The very best way, the most
careful way, of eating a sand
wich is to use your knife and
fork for the entire process.
People who have careful man
ners about this sort of thing
do not touch the sandwich with
their fingers. And as a matter
of fact, they eat the most sim
pie of sandwiches with a knife
and fork. It's a pleasant eat
ing habit to acquire in this
country of sandwiches, this al

with a sandwich. that is,
when we are given knife and

dirt around stables. 1t happens to be
one of the germs that fiourishes best
when the air is excluded. The germs
are inactive only until they are
crushed into a wound with the air shut
off, and then the toxin of poison that
causes the agonizing suffering char
acteristic of lockjaw, begins to de-
velop.
"The size of the wound has nothing
to do with the disastrous effect of
the germ. A mere puncture by dirty
nail, or by a splinter, may force the
infectious material into the flesh. In
iuries from fireworks and blank car
tridges are so dangerous because the
material is crushed
into the flesh by the force of the eX-
plosion.
Fortunately, we have an anti-toXin
that helps to prevent lockjaw from de-
veloping. But it must be administered
promptly. Sometimes, even when it
is done, lockjaw may develop. A per-
son who has an injury of this sort
no matter how is occurs-should get
to a doctor, or a hospital, as quickly
as possible, to have the wound treated
and to be given the tetanus anti-toxin.
Don't wait until the symptoms or
lockjaw develop. By that time, it may
be too late. The treatment of the in
jury includes the opening and thor
ough, surgical, cleansing Of the wound.
1t is of the utmost Importance that
wound of this character be kept open.
"Tetanus anti-toxin for the pre-
vention of lock whether from
Fourth of July accidents, or from in
juries caused in other ways-is sup
piled free of charge to physicians in
the counties, by the State Department
of Health, through the county health
officers. The larger quantities nee
essary for the treatment of advanced
cases are supplied at cost"
