The par play on the hand is for declarer not to cash his queen of diamonds, because, if he does. West will ruff and cash his king of hearts. A small diamond should be played from dummy and South should trump with the jack of spades, shutting out West.
 A small spade then is led and won in dummy with the queen. This picks up the last trump.
 The queen and seven of dia- monds are both good, for tho discard of the two losing hearts. The last heart is trumped with the nine of spades.

When North bids two diamonds over South's call of one spade, he may be showing very weak hand. South's rebid of two spades shows five-card suit, and with this information, North Is justi- fled in supporting the spade con- tract. South then takes the con. tract to game.
 The Play.
 West cashes the ace and king of clubs and then leads small club, which East wins with the queen. East returns the ten of hearts and South, the declarer, wins the trick with the ace.
 The ace and king of spades should be cashed. South should now lead his king of diamonds, followed by a small diamond, which is won in dummy with the ace.

"A MAZDA and her mother since
4 4 Mazda had spoken her mind
so freely with reference to the
course Mrs. Connell was planning, on
the surface their relations were much
as usual. MAZDA made no further
plans for economy, for she felt they
would be useless, and Mrs. Connell
and Stanley tacitly agreed to pass
over her outburst. Mrs. Connell, re-
vivified by her new plan, was now up
and about, closeted for long talks with
Stanley in the morning or bustling
about the house, and in the afternoon
receiving calls of coincidence. 1t was
surprising how many Of the callers
advised her to go away for a change
and rest.
1T shows how much need it, when
every one says the same thing" she
told Mazda plaintively. Don't you
think it would be wise to go to Hot
Springs for a few weeks in March? 1t
might save a breakdown later on"
Mrs. Connell was looking frail and
Mazda fancied she heard a note of
appeal to her mothers voice. Poor
mother! After losing wonderful
husband like dad, and bearing up
under the blow with fortitude, it must
be hard having her only daughter stiff
and critical. Approval, reinsurance,
meant so much to Mrs. Connell.
Mazda bent and kissed her.
Yes, mother, think it will be just
the thing for you." Mrs. Connell
looked pleased.
Then we must go down tomorrow
and pick up a few dresses for us
both"
why, mother, I'm not going" said
Mazda, showing more surprise than
she really felt, for she had half ex-
pected her mothers attempt to sweep
her along by taking acquieScence for
granted.
Not going? Now. Mazda" she
coaxed, surely you are not going to
be obstinate. You said yourself that
it was good thing for me to go, and
I certainly would not leave you here. u
"I should have told you before, ]
guess, but I didn't want to worry you
until it was settled. I've decided to
go in training, and am to report at
the hospital March l."
You are going to be a nurse?

posed" accused Mrs. Connell. "Stan-
ley thought it had blown over, but 1
felt all the time that you were sulk-
ing because you could not get your
own way"
Maidas eyes filled with tears at her
mothers attack, and she turned her
head away to hide the sign of weak
ness. 1t had been no easy thing for
the girl of 81 to strike out for herself,
and sign up for laborious three years
in the hospital, rather than drift with
the tide, and allow her mother and
brother to persuade her to join them
against her better Judgment. But the
thought of her father was with her in
