doughnuts in paper bag in the oven.
They should be turned out on soft

fat Remember also that the fat must
be hot. but not too hot, about 375 de

In the still waters, where there are

They are bottom feeders and swim with
their heads down. Every once in

mullet does not have sharp teeth, but
very feeble ones-in fact, they are more

The head is blunt. the mouth small, the
sides silvery. The underparts are yel-

yellowish.

Of using heads for swimming. They get

the millions by the larger fish. well

timing of the hand. Double" by West,
never doubling that his king Of trumps

the king of spades and knowing that
card to be trapped.
The Play.
West opened a diamond, rightly re-
fusing to jeopardize his king of hearts
or to risk an immediate ruff of the ace
of clubs. South won with the ace and
took spade finesse. When East
showed out of spades, Johnny saw that
his problem was to get back tc his
hand often enough to catch the king Of
trumps without losing more than one
trick in the process. Both from the
double and from the lead, he felt that
West held the king Of hearts. The
double definitely marked him with the
ace Of clubs II he also held the queen
Of clubs, the slam could not be made;
but If that queen were in East's hand,
the best chance Of getting in was
plainly to force out the ace Of clubs
and get in with second club lead.
Declarer therefore led the jack of clubs.
East wisely did not cover. West un-
wisely, as 1t turned out, won this first
club lead with the ace and returned
diamond. Winning in dummy, South
regained the lead with the club and
finessed spades again. For the last time
he re-entered his hand with the ace OF
hearts, and was now able to, capture
the trump king. Now all North's cards
are good except the remaining hearts,
for which South still has trump, hav-
ing got rid Of the queen Of hearts on

on the first club lead.
Significance Of Triple Raise.
South readily appreciated that North
was endeavoring to give him approx
mately the same information that would
be conveyed by triple raise in reply to
an opening bid: Don't worry about the
game, don't worry about the pitifm
weakness Of your trump suit. I know
