the return lead Of clubs. Two
club ruffs established the de-
clarer's suit. Two leads Of
trumps from dummy enabled
the declarer to pick up South's
three spades. The hand then
was passed for a grand slam.
Looked at in one way Vests
conduct was perfectly reason
able. A tWo-suiter is poor de-
fense against a no trump, and
Vests cards justified going as
high as he needed to go to OBJ
tain the call. East's raise to
the small slam looks pretty
fishy.
The hand has a strangely "a
miliar appearance. It resem-
bles the famous Duke Of Cum
berland hand" That remark
able hand was at one time
worked on Mississippi river
boats, to trim suckers, using
cold decks. Many players know
the hand worked on the river
steamers years ago.
Now a hand turns up that IS
almost identical in character.
What are we to think about it?
What are we to think about
the numerous 13-Spades that
the papers report being dealt
all over the country? I know
that in one instance that the
13-Spades were handed to a
man who had just dealt. He
was called to the phone, before
viewing his hand. The three
other players went into a hud-
die over something. An out
slider exchanged all the dealt
hands for arranged hands. I
believe that nearly every case
of the sort is the result of a
joke.
Will any players knowing Of
such exchanges of cards please

When ankles are large due

A Story Of the CIamor, Romance
and Intrigue of Hollywood
WASH HNNGTONFASHAONS By Wilma Lovhe

It begins to look like most
fashion yarns will be spun with
a linen thread this year. Which
brings up many thoughts,
mostly about how smart linen
can be when it's combined with
other materials. One thought
worthy of mention is that many
of the linen weavers are doing
something to the threads before
they are woven that will keep
them from mussing. You'll
find that this years linens are
far better than those Of any
other year, though even last
summer you could get suppos-
edly uncruShable linens. And
even if they muss a little, you
don't mind it, for it gives them
a casual look that's not unat-
tractive.
With Silk or Wool
But to get back to the clothes,
there's a whole article on linens
in the new Harper'S Bazaar, Sug-
gesting them used as tweedS.
They make smart coats, clever
hats, good combinations of con-
trasting skirt and blouse, are
chic in bathing suits. Not to
mention the same old tailored
linen suits that will have re-
vived popularity this year both
because of the return of the
tailored mode, and also because
there are so many intriguing
blouses to make them look diff
ferent each day.
A Separate Coat
Linen coats and jackets are
the find of the year, however,
for they give animation and
spice to any costume you wear
with them. You'll be buying
them with dresses and separ-
ately, making your own en-
Sembles with almost any fabric,
or using all linen. The coat
we've sketched is in natural or
white linen, with exaggerated
sleeves and an expensive look.
It is in a heavy waffle weave,
or plain. Incidentally, linen
comes in almost any weave this
year. These coats priced sep
arately are $5.95 and are in
Junior sizes, II to II, though
they are good for any person
who's not too large.
For Day or Night
Then you can get an en-
semble Of linen coat and
printed silk frock, as sketched.
The prints are colorful and
gay, with any good color pre-
dominating, though our favor
ite was one with yellow and
orange in it. There are short
puffed sleeves and a bow at
the neckline of the print.
These costumes come in junior
sizes too, and are priced SLOTS
complete, so it pays to get the
dress and coat, then use the
coat over other thingr too.
You can also get coats of
doubled waffle weave pique,
which are not only good for
daytime, but make a splendid
summer evening wrap, and
they too are $5.95 for the coat.
For fashion information, or
the name of the store where
you can find these costumes,

gagged to Norma, a girl from
the West whom he has known
only a month.
But the girls who have known

are devoted to him, don't ap-
prove Of Norma. They say
she is tricky. selfish and a
spendthrift. They want to pro-
tect Buddy"
"It's so hard for a boy to
understand a girls faults"
they say, especially when the
girl is pretty. Wouldn't it be
kind to tell him, rather than
let him face a lifetime Of un-
happiness?"
No, my dear young things,
you must not do anything Of
the sort.
I believe that you honestly
want this boy to be happy. At
the same time I suspect that
you are all-and "Girl-friend"
in particular-just a little in
love with him yourselves, and
that you're hurt because it
isn't one of you he has fallen
in love with, rather than with
a captivating stranger.
There would be more salts

you might be willing to admit,
in revealing the strange girls
shortcomings and in breaking
up her love affair?
But it's something that you
have no right to do. And, in
any case, can you picture an
enamored boy accepting your
Interpretation of his sweet
heart? And could you admire
him if he did?

recur often in your lives, and
you will always be powerleSS to

It may even be that he'll

Secrets Of Health
By DR.. Louis A. Risch
Famous Authority ON Health and Psychology

Strabismus, Squint, a cross
eyed CONDITIONAL these mean
the same thing. Every case Is
more or less a handicap; al
ways it is a source Of embar-
rasSment to the patient.
The strabismus I am here
referring to is Of the constant
variety. Individuals afflicted
with it usually have the condi-
ton from early childhood, or
from birth. 1t may be marked,
or it may scarcely be notice
able.
There is another type, how
eyer-occaSional or perlodlc
souint, it is called-where the
eyes cross only at times. Like
permanent strabismus, 1t IS
caused by eye muscle weak.
ness, but in the occasional
form the muscles become weak
from eye-strain or a rundown
system and when this Is cor
rected they quickly right them
selves.
There are other ways Of
classifying this disorder. In
alternating StrabismuS, for IN
stance, one eye fixes for lar
vision while the other fixes
for near. In monocular stra-
bismus it is only one eye that
deviates or turns from its nor
NAL axis, while the other eye
habitually reacts in a normal
manner.
Strabismus may also be de-
Signated as internal, external
or vertical, depending upon the
direction in which the eyebal
is rotated. Vertical squint Is
rare. Internal squint is the
commonest form. In the latter
condition the eyeball turns in
ward toward the nose.
When StrabismuS is only sug'
gestive-that is, when one can
not be certain that the de-
formity actually exists-the fol-
lowing test may be made.
The patient fixes his gaze
upon some distant object. Then
a card is held alternately over
one eye and the other. When,
let us assume, the left eye is
covered by the card, and the
right eye make|it actually is
forced to make-an outward or
inward movement in order to
keep the object gaZed at in
focus, then it means that that
particular eye-in this case the
rights the squirting eye, and
that, before the card covered
the left eye, it Squinted in the
reverse direction, in other words
inward or outward.
In order that any case Of
Strabismus may be diagnosed
correctly-and this means ac-
curate measurement of the de-
gree of divergence from normal
the services of an expert are
required.
Whenever child suffers a
croSS-eyed condition, attempt
should always be made first to
combat the disorder with cor.
recting lenses. Such glasses
force one or more eyeballs to
rotate to normal positions while
the individual is focusing. In
this way weak eyeball muscles
are exercised and made
stronger. In addition to wear
ing proper glasses, certain eye
rotation exercises are of value.
If correcting lenses fail to
accomplish results after a year
of earnest trial, operative inter-
ference should be considered.
In such cases certain muscles
can be shortened, or length
ened, through splicing, and
then the eyeball no longer is
pulled abnormally out of focus.
Operation, however, should not
be attempted until a child is
at least seven years old.
StrabiSmuS should never be
disregarded. It should have
prompt attention, for the older
