or pill rollers. A humble crew OF
sanitary officers who keep the earth
free from much that Is unclean. Coun-
try children know these industrious and
patient scavengers They have seen
them laboriously rolling q ball Of food
along the road. Often the ball rolls
into q deep rut. and help must be OBJ
tanned from sister rollers, before the
ball can be trundled to the banquet
hail.
From June until September you may
come across these beautiful bronze or
black beetles. They are round-shoul-
dered end glossy. Most Of the time
you will see rair Of them with ball.
At first you NAV BE- led to believe 1t is
a married couple rolling their market
the truth is, one has made that ball
unaided and the second one Is trying
to share the results. The true tumble
bug is an ebony-coated fellow. found
in pastures and barnyards. The ways
of these beetles are the same the world
over.
The sense of smell is very keen and
can locate the food they desire that is
q mile away. They fly to their market
place and walk home backward!
Why these tumble bugs insist on
rolling their pill for long distances,
over hills and rough places, Is yet un-
solved. Why not make q banquet hall
near the market and feast? Honiing
instinct may answer this question. The
roller never eats his food until he has
excavated a room large enough to hold
the ball and himself and possibly the
guest who invites himself. The second
ball. constructed by the mother. is
made into smaller pear-shaped forms.
Each one is the cradle and food supply
Of the future tumble bug and only one
egg is laid in each pear" You may
find four or five Of these strange cases
in the dugout made by the mother
beetle. Young beetles appear in August.
Efhcient tools are supplied the tumble
bugs. The front feet act as rakes,
shovels. brooms and hands. They are
elbowed. and this is a great advantage,
giving the worker wider range for acttv-
tiles. The gathered material is sorted,
and the pill grows rapidly as selected
food Is added The front feet pass the
additional material selected to the
middle feet. They shape the ball
against the hard abdomen, turning the
pill rapidly. It is soon as large as an
apple and ready to be pushed home.

Conquering Contract

which to raise in diamonds. II opener
veers into no trumps, you must trust
him for the spades and raise him to
three. II he bids two spades over two
diamonds, bid two no trumps your
self and hope that he will raise you to
three. II he bids hearts secondarily,
raise him in hearts. He may now bid
three no trumps, which you can pass
with hand (a). On hand 90 would
take it to four hearts. Possibly the
opener will bid four hearts, which you
pass, or four diamonds, which you take
to four hearts. With less than the
above values in your hand, you will be
in a quandary If your partner shows
desire to get to three no trumps.
Always Try to Foresee Next Move.
Let me put the prospects to you In
this way: When your partner bids q
major suit, If you have Qxxx in trumps
and doubleton, he does not have to
hold very powerful or unusual hand
for game In that major suit to be de-
pendent on reasonable playing

so it is right to give light chances
In raising major suit. However. in
a minor suit the outlook is really lin
ited to a no-trump game except in
very rare cases where the opener has
an extremely freakish minor-suit hand
Put in this way: 1t Is not reasonable
to raise in a minor suit with high
card values with which you could net
raise one no trump to two-in fact,
with values barely enough to ra4se two
no trumps to three, because a no.
trump game is hardly imaginable in
these circumstances unless the opener
had fine no-trump opening bid to
start with. Indeed. If responding hand
has only couple Of queens or so,
opener would need almost, If not quite.
an opening two-no-trump hand -
game to be likely. Therefore, to give
chance in a minor suit, with 4-4-3-2
distribution, you need about the same
values as you would require in order
to raise one no trump to two no
trumps. A trifle less, perhaps, because
you have a safer and easier sign-off
in partial score in the suit When
in doubt about raising q minor-su,t
opening bid. remember that your part
ner will read such raise as a construc-
tive move toward three no trumps;
therefore, ask yourself this question: IF
I raise and my partner NOW makes the
highly invitational and encouraging re-
bid Of two no trumps, can then raise
him to three no trumps without Il

A Sermon for Today
Happiness Through Endurance.
BY REV. JOHN 4. GUNN.
I'VE count them happy which
endure n-In,uos MI

I'VE count them happy wh;ch
endure."-Jdmes, OIL.
Some Of our modern philosophers
would write: I'VE count them happy
who escape from the cares and burdens
Of life and are left free to unceasingly
amuse themselves according to their
taste" But the cid philosopher James
sees happiness as the fruit Of toll, trial
and endurance. think his philosophy
OF happiness Is confirmed by the com
mon experience Of mankind.
I have just been reading the story Of
q man who had all his life been en-
gagged in the grocery business. The
business was very confining; he had
never had much freedom nor much
chance to play around. He lived very
plainly. and at that it was a struggle to
make ends meet. But when the Wcrld
War started he went in for Government
contracts, and quickly became a very
rich man. He sold out the old grocery.
sold the old home, and moved into a
palatial residence on . fashionable
street. Now he could go in for sports.
Now he could join the clubs. This
would be real living and real happiness.
However, after few months. his wife
observed that he was behaving very
queerly. On two certain days every,
week he would leave home early in the
morning and be gone all day. He was
mysterious about what he was doing,
and she could not imagine what he was
up to; she feared what wife usually
fears when her husband is mysteriously
away from home so often. A detective
was employed. What he found was
that the old man had hired himself out
to work two days q week in q grocery
store in a distant part of the city,
where he was unknown. And the de-
tective observed that he seemed as hap
py as a lark, wrapping, weighing and
handing out grocery packages.
I'VE count them happy which en-
dure"-not the carefree who have moth
ing to do but nurse themselves and
their whims, nothing to think about
but their cwn ease and pleasure. To
struggle against difficulties and sur
mount them. brings true happiness. As
Humboldt writes: When We are not too
anxious about happiness and unhappi-
ness, but devote ourselves to the strict
and unsparing performance of duty.
then happiness comes Of itseH-nay.
even springs from the midst of q life
Of troubles and anxieties and priva-
tions"
We often complain Of the loads we
have to carry and the hardships we
have to endure Yet 1t is in carrying
loads and enduring hardships that we
attain the supreme happiness of life.
Life has many joys. but there are no
joys like those experienced In conflict
and conquering.

NRA ENTERING
SECOND PHASE,
SAYS EDUCATOR
Recovery Program Results
Are Discussed by
DR.. Pitchers.

With the corporate state idea
vanishing because Of inability of the
trade associations to function as ex-
pected, the NRA has entered the
second phase OF its history, DR.. D.
J. Pitcher. De Paw university eco
Monies professor, asserted today.
The NRA as a partnership be-
tween industry and government was
accepted silently by the public and
quickly entered into by the indus
trialists, encouraged by the fading
promise that the industrial group
could wave aside the highly objec-
tionable antitrust laws, DR.. Pitcher
said.
This linking of industry and gov
eminent. the essential makeup of
present-day European corporate
states, was not acceptable to all,
notwithstanding the soothing, COM
forting statements of Donald Rich
burg that the country was passing
through revolution and that there
was no reason to fear violence" he
continued.
DR.. Pitcher attributes non-realiza-
ton Of the economic hypothesis that
increased wages and employment
and reduction of hours will increase
purchasing power, TO the failure of
the administration to note the
significance of personal traits and
few fundamental economic prin-
ciples.
The new policy of the new deal
consists of two parts: Reorganiza-
ton and enforcement he stated.
THE newly created federal price
policy board tends to unity the OBJ
jectives of the NRA. It will ask
that completed codes revise price
