his three meals a day or his

There is probably nobody on
earth quite so thrilled and CRATE
full as an intellectual woman,
who discovers that a man loves
her for the dimple in her chin
or the cuteness of her feet.
After a few years of marriage
a woman has to go to the hos
pital or the grave in order to
inspire her husband to send
her a few flowers.
Just about when their friends
have stopped wondering why
on earth they ever married each
other" the bride and bride
groom are beginning to try to
figure out the same problem.

play is to lead the deuce of dia-
mondS.
Remember, I told you in my two
previous articles that playing the
lower card when you know that
your partner is going to ruff is
advising him that your entry card
is in the lower of the unbid suits.
When you lead the deuce of dia-
monds, East rufus with small
spade and now deliberately leads
a club into dummy's ace-queen.
West rufus and the contract is de-
feated one trick.
Without employing this play, if
West simply goes ahead and cashes
his three diamond tricks and then
leads the fourth diamond, forcing
East to ruff to kill a discard, the
declarer will over-ruff, pick up the
trumps, and discard the losing club
on The good queen of hearts.

shows you how far you can go with
these fine plays.
Now some players might say to
you, isn't this a private conven-

your opponents do not know as
much about the play of the hand as
you do, they have no right to class
this play as a private convention.
And remember that your knowledge
of this play in no way affects their
play, as they are absolutely helpless
against it.
IN the play of today's hand you

four spade contract is the king of

the nine of clubs.
Now Of course West can lay down
his third diamond and it will hold.
But that would not defeat the con-

can ruff the next diamond, but if
he can get his partner in to lead a

to defeat the contract.

This countrys population in this thir.
ty-three-year period has increased 60
per cent.
The three leading communication
services of America today in the order
OF their origin are: the postal system.
commercial telegraph service, and tele
phone service.
The postal system was established
under the Federal Constitution by an
act of Congress in 1889. Commercial
telegraph service was inaugurated in
1874, following the historic demon.
stration of Samuel F. B. Morse in
transmitting the words, What hath
God wrought" between Washington
and Baltimore. Last, but not least,
is local and long distance telephone
service which came into existence as
a result Of the dream of Alexan \
Graham Bell. who, in 1876, spoke the
first words ever heard for distances
further than the unaided human voice
could carry. Two years later modern
telephone service had it's origin in the
establishment of the worlds first tele.
phone exchange.
Spurred by the ever-increasing com
munication needs Of modern America,
these three instrumentalities for
speeding mans messages have under.
gone growth since the beginning
OF the present century that has been
even greater than the fondest dreams
Of their originators.
The world moves on rapidly and
communication has done much to
make this possible.

from Detroit to New York, thence by

thence by aerial line to Stockholm.
English operators in London wrote
down the responses, which were trans

operators and the consul were Eu.

ceremony.
The bride, it was announced, ex-
pected to leave for America at an
early date.
Immediately following the cere-

telephone wedding, which amounted
to $47.50. He remarked, Il am sure
