A one club trick and allowing
him to lead his J of spades, to
remove declarer's K. This left
A with two good spades and the
K of hearts for re-entry, but he
never had another chance to
lead spades. The declaring side
won a total of two spade tricks,
four club tricks, three diamonds
and one heart trick, or one
trick over contract.
At the third and fourth
tables 2 played the hand at

held the first trick, and a heart

tables was playing a doubled

tract of seven game bids at no
trumps. Had the declarer played
his Ace of hearts he would have
gone game, as in the play de-
scribed yesterday. Instead of
putting up his Ace of hearts,
thereby preventing A from
establishing and running off his

dren are not by nature kind.
In fact they often can be un-
believably harsh to their pets

is far from being an uncommon
trait in both sexes and at all
ages.
Children pinch, tease, poke
fun at physical deformity, lord

Selfishness is often a domi-

The instinct of self-preserva-

large share of expression; and
the ego urge-that force which
eggs the individual on to
achieve at least a status Of

if not a definite status Of su-

for many undesirable childhood
acts, for which we criticize
them the most severely.

Advice to the LoveIorn
By Beatrice Fairfax

Romance had to come back,
because we had plumbed the
depths of the sewers" says a
popular novelist in a recent best
seller, land its return has the
stimulus of a great discovery"
But isn't romance always a
discovery? And even in the
most commonplace lives, isn't
there the hope of some unfore-
seen thrill?
Romeo-but why say Romeo,
when we are talking about
preSent-day youth and it's prob
lens. Instead of Romeo and
Juliet, let's take Bob and Molly.
Bob, wandering careless and
entirely whole-hearted, suddenly
sees-beautiful as the evening
star-a girl, somewhere; at a
dance, perhaps; in a street car,
or as a fellow-passenger in an
elevator. And the boys life is
at flood-tide: let it carry him
where it may. It has always
been so, in spite of everything!

than the age through which we
have been passing. Call it

tent his primitive and material
iStic cravings.
At about the age Of five
when reasoning begins to funce
ton efficiently, the intellectual
side helps decidedly to curb
the more sordid emotional part
of his makeup. After a time
he learns also-and that really
is a high state of civilized
reaction-that there is a lot
of pleasure to be gained by
doing kind and even altruistic
acts for which no immediate
personal reward results.
The habit of consideration
for others should come, first Of
all, from the parents, the teach
ers, the older brothers and sis
ters. Initiative and suggestible
as they are, children will ape
what they see the grown-ups do.
We must, therefore, be care
full not to be harsh to the
youngsters we have in charge,
even if they be strangers. We
must avoid unfairneSs, and
never must we allow ourselves
an overbearing or tyrannical at
titude.
Here the question of physical
punishment also comes in for
consideration. Mistreat q child
at home or at school strike
him and inflict pain, and you
may be sure he will similarly
mistreat his companions and
his pets, and soon will develop
into a catty little girl or q
bully Of a boy.
In similar manner kindness
can be established as a stand
ard Of conduct. A well-treated
child knows how good it feels
to have kind and understand
Ing grown-ups looking after
him, and he learns also that
his pets and his chums dis
play loyalty and respond to
him better if he, himself, is
not rough and harsh in his be-
havior towards them.

kept warm. Placing layers Of
newspapers between spring

WASHINGTON FASHIONS By Wilma LoviIe

Many Of us have taken ad-
vantage of the opportunity to
do over our dresses that are
not so fresh looking, by adding
a new collar, or a set Of collar
and cuffs. Others Of us, just
as clever If not more so, have
bought new dresses with collar
and cuffs that can be removed
for laundering, and for a
change of type, so that we can
seem to have on a different
dress every few days, even if it
is the same black or navy
crepe, with simple, unobtrusive
lines. It's not only a splendid
way of having a wardrobe that
looks full and varied, but it's
the newest way to chic, and to
looking young, for the new
crisp scarfs and collars are de-
signed to take years off your
looks.
In Wide Variety
There are vests with ruffly
collar, or with no collar at all;
some with matching cuffs, and
they may be made of anything
from the most tailored pique
to the fluffiest organdie and
lace. Then there are all sorts
Of scarfs, worn looped high,
looped low, or looped not at all.
There are clever little collars
for high necks, and lower col
lars for lower necklines. They
are of silk, Of organdie or its
imitator, mousseline de sole;
Of linen, and Of any other
smart material you can think
Of. Some dresses will look
well with just an organdie bow,
others will need a more elabo-
rate treatment. But be sure
there's something that will suit
your dress, and it will be mod
erately priced, for the things
are unbelievably low in cost.
SCaEIS 1TCuUE1uu6tC
We've sketched few of the
newest Scarfs and collars, just
to show you how smart they
are. Upper left is the Lynn
Fontanne collar, really a big
bow onto a tiny collar. It Is of
taffeta, in pink, white, yellow
or pale blue, and it costs only
81. Upper right is a dotted taf-
feta collar and ascot scarf, in
white, pink, maise or blue, and
it is priced only 79c, if you can
believe it. Below it is a taffeta
ascot in plaids, stripes, or plain
colors, also 79c, and beside it a
more elaborate collar and scarf
Of mouSseline de sole, with
barred design made by seal
loped pleats, and ruffled edge.
It costs a bit more, all of $1.95,
which is really very little for
such a lovely piece. There were
dozens of others that we
couldn't sketch, ranging from
simple organdle flowers to p1que
mess jackets, priced low at $1.95
too.

Sharlie was awakened by hot
sunlight on her eyeids.
She sat up and looked
around her, wondering where
on earth she was. Then after
q second she knew.
A branch laden with glossy
green leaves brushed the top Of
her head. A yellow butterfly
danced in the bright air yard
or so away. Beside her in the
seat of the car Eddie sat, his
head titled back, his mouth
open and his clothes wrinkled.
Seen thus he was certainly no
figure of romance.
Sharlie took him by the arm
and began to shake him.

she cried. "Eddie-please wake
up!"

pushed her away from him.

It took her a good five min

He sat up, rubbing the back OF
his neck and yawning. A thick
lock of his hair fell across his
eyes. His face was creased and
swollen with sleep.
He smiled at her, blinking

thickly.

But Sharlie shook her head
with vigor. She had never
wanted anything less in her
life than she wanted a kiss
from Eddie at that moment.
why speak of love at a
time like this?" she asked with
disgust in her voice. If you
don't get out of this car this

cheerfulness. watch me-"

Sharlie sat in the car and
watched him walk away down
the road, between the apple
trees that edged it. He seemed
to go very slowly.
It was half past eight before
he came back. He had a tin
can of gasoline in his arms and
all of his good nature had van

Without a word of greeting
he filled the car, threw the can
into the weeds and got into
the driving seat.
They were half way to town
before he spoke.

Sharlie replied. "I left the
door open last night. Eddie,
you'll have to go up to the flat
with me and explain to my
mother what happened. oh, J
DO hope Edna's gone to the
office!"
The thought of Edna worried
her.
It would be easy to explain
things to Dodie, who never had
been the least bit strict with
her. Who always had let her
run wild. But Edna. Edna
was an altogether different
proposition.

And all the time the boy is
wondering in his heart what
this sudden beauty Of the COM

what the miracle of discovery
which has overtaken him is all
about.
Yet, when he tries to express
his deepest feelings to the girl,
he does it in gutter slang, or he

had no thought Of what he was

The tragedy of love is the
fading of the heavenly vision

ting on of the drab garments
of mortality, after we have been

else for us, it has at least given
us a truer sense of values. Un-
doubtedly, we are poorer than
we were, but also we are more

WRIT SUSPENDS
POSTAL JOB

Attacking the NRA in a contro-
versy over a PWA building prof.
ect, the George F. Driscoll Com
pany, construction firm of Brook
lyn, N. Y, obtained a temporary
injunction today in District Su-
preme Court, preventing Secretary
of Treasury William H. Woodin
from awarding contract for con-
struction of post office annex in
New York.
The injunction will expire No
vember 3, when a hearing on the
case was scheduled by Justice F..
Dickinson Let's.
The construction company sub
mitted a bid for the postoffice
project last February %. The
plaintiff alleged it's bid of $4,248,-
800, which was the lowest, had
been protested on the ground of
failure to comply with the NRA,
and on october 25, the Driscoll
company was notified the bid had
been rejected.
The construction firm contends
Secretary Woodin's act in award
ing the contract to higher bid
der was a violation of law since
the plaintiff had complied with
all specification particulars.
