Advice to the Love|orn
By Beatrice Fairfax

from her first marriages. boy
8 years old. Now that we are
getting a place she told me
she wants him to come live
with us.
I have never been around a
child and, judging from neigh
Dor children, they are pretty
disturbing at times. I seem to
feel such a move will bring on
all kinds of complications.
Anyway, I am not happy any
more and I don't care about
planning either, as it isn't as
I had dreamed.
My wife is a splendid woman
and I love and respect her.
What to do about it? j.
Of course, your wife wants
her little boy to live with her.
I don't see how she has done
without him so long. Children
have way of making a place
in peoples hearts, and I'm sure
this little one will do that.
Just give him a chance.

The opening lead was the r.

led the K. @ and j of spades
before South put up the Ace.
South led back the j of dia-
monds, and the declarer ruffed,
leaving one trump in his own
hand, and one trump in dunn
my.
OF course the declarer dared
not take the last trumps from
both hands to enable him to
lead hearts from dummy,
through South. He led his Ace
OF hearts, then the @ was led.
South'S K won the second trick
for his side. South led his
last diamond, and the declarer
ruffed with his last spade.
Having won a trick with his j
of hearts the declarer had to
give opponents their third
trick when South won with
the 10 of hearts. The Ace Of
clubs and Vests good hearts

Play the hand as follows:
Trump the opening lead with

OVertake with dummy's 9. If
you are allowed to remain in
dummy, lead the seven Of

Whether South lets dummy

he must cover the seven Of

Declarer'S Q will win. Lead
the Ace of hearts, taking out
dummy's last card of the suit.
Lead a small heart and trump

left only the Ace Of clubs, q

Love Better Than Gifts to Cele-
brate Mothers Day
Tomorrow is the day set apart
for observance as Mothers Day.
Again, perhaps, you have been
looking into the shop windows,
wondering what would please
Mother most; what there was
that you could give her which
would best express your loving
appreciation for all that she has
done for you.
Whether you be a son or a
daughter, you have learned by
now, of course, that a mother
never considers the price you
pay in cents or in dollars for
any remembrance which you
give her. That is the way a
mother is built. You probably
also have discovered that your
mother prizes the feeling you
express towards her more than
anyone else in the whole world.
It is the very bone and mar
row of Mothers nature to sub
serve her personality to her
child, and to sacrifice her every
thing and all, if need be, in Or
der that those who are of her
own flesh and blood may ben
fit. The travail under which
she gave you birth becomes the
symbol of q duty from which
she never swerves, even after
you have long since grown to
adult years. AS in the words
of James Montgomery:
"A mothers love-how sweet
the name!
What is mothers love?
A noble, pure and tender flame,
Enkindled from above,
To bless a heart of earthly
mould;
The warmest love, that can't
grow cold;
This is a mothers love-"
Then what should child's
love be? How can it tangibly
express the depth of gratitude
which surges at the very name
of Mother, particularly on a day
like this when a whole nation
bids us pause and think.
Express your feeling toward
her; hold her close; tell her you
are still her baby. that you
realize how great her influence
has been in faShioning your
character, your happiness and
your success. Nothing, surely,
could delight her more!
For is it not true that many
Of us have built up a wall of
reserve around ourselves, which
more or less has shut our moth
ers out? And is it not also true
that often, perhaps without
realizing it, we have taken ad-
vantage of that very spirit of
sacrifice which, on the other
hand, we seem so eager to take
cognizance Of on an anniversary
day devoted to mothers?
Besides what have suggested,
ask yourself these questions:
Do you always help your
mother as much as you could
and should?
Do you aid in easing the bur-
dens Of her household cares?
Are you conSiderate, or do you
persist in being untidy and al
low her continually to pick up
after you?
In fact, are you not often de-
1iberately selfish. and do you
not sometimes actually take ad-
vantage of her kindness, her
easy-going attitude, her self
effacement, her willingness and
her love?
! In mending our ways, our
manner or our general attitude
to the mothers We revere so
