Visits Schools
At the conclusion of this dis
cussion, Mrs. Roosevelt told of
her recent visit to two schools
in the District, where she went
to observe the methods used to
provide lunches for the chill
dren. She was tremendously
impressed with one, where every
effort was made to make the
room set aside for this purpose
CHEEKY. The children were
seated at small tables decorated
with flowers, the china while
simple was colorful and pretty.
and the luncheon served by the
mothers of the children was de-
licious.
The system of self-govern-
ment in the other school Mrs.
Roosevelt found very interesting.
AS regards the luncheons ex-
pressed the belief that those in
charge were getting this work
organized as quickly as possible.
They were perfecting plans to
feed the children, and to do
away with any stigma a child
might feel because they were
unable to pay. The First Lady
touched lightly on the housing
situation in the Capital. While
as yet sites are not permanently
established, the land is available.
A report on the nation wide
relief plan for unemployed
artists was read, and it is re-
markable how marvelously city
and county officials have re-
sponded and found ways of
using the talents of this group
to beautify public buildings.
An interesting development of
this movement to aid artists is
that there has been a greater
sale of medium-p priced pictures
during the past month than in
years paSt-showing that in
tereSt has been stimulated.
Weeks Engagements
Mrs. Roosevelt'S plans for the
remainder of this week include
the luncheon Mrs. Farley, wife
of the Postmaster General, gave
for her today; her attendance
at the concert Fritz Kreisler is
giving this afternoon at Con-
stitution Hall; and the dinner
to be given this evening at the
White House by the President
and First Lady, for a large COM
pany.
Tomorrow afternoon, Mrs.
Roosevelt will give a tea at
the White House for the mem
berS of the Conference of the
Cause and Cure of War, who
will also be received by the
President. She will attend the
banquet the Conference will
give tomorrow night.
Thursday evening, the Pres
ident and Mrs. Roosevelt will
entertain at small dinner
before the Congressional Recep-
Gon.

independence. e.
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

1T is literally impossible to tell any
parent at just what age her child is
capable of independence in daily
activities.
Our modern tendency is to extremes.
Either We mollycoddle the child and
refuse to permit him to bear the least
responsibility for his safety and his
own care at home, or We turn him
loose when he is definitely not old
enough to protect or do for himself.
The former course inevitably irritates
the independent child. who Graves the
opportunity to show how well he can
stand on his own feet, and the second
may very we'll cause a sense of in
feriority, due to frequent failures and
a disastrous timidity in the naturally
apprehensive child who Graves parental
protection.
This business of being independent
Is an aCutely personal thing. Some
children of years are independent
to a marked degree They want no
help with eating, very little with
dressing and continually court and
master the new and untried.
There are adolescent children who

Who Are You?
Romance of Your Name
BY RUBY HAsKINs ELLIS.

THIS name originated from the Old
- English "nourise," nurse.
The English ancestor Of this family
In America was John Nourse, 1st, OF
Weston, England, who was born in
1916 and died in 1867. He married
Lettuce Jones. daughter Of William
Jones of Monmouthshire. England.
There are many descendants of this
early settler in Virginia, West Vir-
ginia and Maryland.
James Nourse, who was born at
Herefordshire, England. settled near
Charlottesville, Va, and built place
called Piedmont. He also served West
Virginia in the Legislature, represent
ing Jefferson and Berkeley Counties,
then Virginia. He was for many years
connected with the United States
Treasury, and was ruling elder in
the Presbyterian Church at Wash
ington, D. C.. He married Sarah
Tonance Of London, England.
Today there are descendants OF
this family living in many sections

Case for the 0vercall.

TIME overcall still has its place
in contract. according to my
ideas, though greatly restricted
L as compared with it's use in
auction. l employ it when
am prepared to bid one in my suit,
but not to bid two until know that
my opponents are weak or that my
partner has something to work with.
For instance. if the opponent bids
heart and my suit is spades, l ask
myself this question: Am I willing
to play this hand at two spades
doubled?" II so. I will double, be-
cause am prepared to bid two spades
over my partners response OF one no
trump or two in minor suit. II,
however. I feel that am not justified
in playing the hand at more than one
spade doubled. I will overcall. be-
cause I can do SO at the level Of one.
1t is a matter of suit ranking in con-
junction with the strength of the
hand. Your partner gains very def
mite knowledge from your choice. For
instance. if you overcall heart bid
with spade, or a club bid with a
diamond. you are plainly saying, Il
cannot afford to play this hand at two
in my suit. otherwise I would have
doubled" BY preferring the overca1l
to the double you give him a distinct
negative inference of your own opin-
ion Of your own 13 cards. He may
raise you or not. or bid as his hand
seems to suggest, but at least he
knows the limitations Of your hand
from your own point Of view. Again,
II you first double a heart bid and
then bid two spades over his response,
he knows that your hand Is much
stronger in type. and the offense or
defense of the partnership holdings are
materially facilitated by the simple de-
duction drawn from the fact that,
with both courses open to you, you
selected the double rather than the
overcall at the level of one.
My objection is to aimless overcalls,
made without thought or foresight.
This particular bid is not aimless
when used as suggest. 1t is very
informative and has its rightful place
in contract The trouble comes when
you enlist it for a task which is be-
yond its scope 1t lacks strategy, but
1t conveys warning. Put it to work.
therefore, only when safety is Of more
importance than strategy at the low
