ten was finessed in dummy, West winning with the jack. West Le- turned the five of diamonds, de- clarer went up with the queen in dummy, East covered with tho king, and south won the trick with the ace.
 A heart was played and the queen finessed. Declarer then start ed the clubs and ran down four club tricks, bringing his hand down to the nine of hearts, the seven of diamonds, and the seven of clubs.
 Dummy was down to the ace and eight of hearts and the jack of spades. West was down to the squeen of spades and the king and ten of hearts. East was down to the jack and seven of hearts and the nine of diamonds.
 Now the declarer led the last trump-the seven--and first West was squeezed. He could not let go the queen of spades, or dummy's jack would be good, so he released the ten of hearts. Declarer dropped the jack of spades from dummy and then East was squeezed.
 If he let go the nine of dia- monds, declarer's seven would be good. while if he released a heart. declarer would lead the nine of hearts, overtake in dummy with the ace. and win the last trick with the eight of hearts.

 And, despite the fact that there is a law in France against staring punishable by a prison sentence and a fine-we got by recently at the races ,by outstaring all the sheep and cows of our personal ac- quaintance when grande dame passed wearing an Agnes hat that had everything except the kite string and looked as though it might take off at any moment l in search of one of the few clouds that flecked the sky.
 This astonishing kite hat consisted of tiny crown in black silk tricot to which was conjugated Gin future tense) d black erin kite, the shorter point soaring upwards and the longer one passing across the side of the face pointing toward the right elbow. Through its transparent yelling the face of the lady was plainly out lined and, believe you us, it was the lady, and not the horse, who won that particular race!
 Seeing as how Madame Agnes could get away with this. we went down toNhe shop the next day to have look around and ex- tend our orbs a little further from their accustomed sockets. She has another model, bonnet-shaped in the rear of black tricot material. over which she places in front a round sort of victrola disk arrange ment in black picot.

CONTRACT BRIDGE
No Trump Is Strong Bid-This AS Opening Declaration Gives Partner Enough Information to Arrive
 at Six Club Contract
BY VIM. E. MCKINNEY Secretary of the American Bridge league
Solution to Previous Contract Problem

Contract Problem
 The makers of bridge laws ap- preciated the fact that the most difficult contract to make is to trumps, and that is why it takes only hree odd at no trump to go game against four or five odd at Q suit declaration.
 Get out of the habit of opening the contra citing with weak no trumps. That was all right at auction, where you were bidding against your opponents, but at contract the safety in bidding is to block up. the weak spots before getting into no trump.
 Therefore, if you make an orig inal bid of one no trump, you should be saying to your partner that you have no singleton, no weak doubleton and that you have more than your share of high card tricks-at least three and one-half, Tn addition, you should have dis tribution.
 The strong bid of one no trump in to-day's hand helps South to arrive at six-club contract.
 The Play
 Against the six-club contract West opened the king of spades. which was won in dummy with the ace. The ace and queen of clubs in dummy were cashed.
 Now small diamond was played, East played the eight, the
