Conquering Contract
BY p. HAL SIMS.

part score Of go he must be equally as
careful. A forcing response at this
point will almost certainly result in
slam bid. and he cannot be sure that
it is in the cards, without further in
formation, despite his partners flrst-
hand opening. 1t is very comforting
to know definitely. when your partner
gives you forcing response, that
there is a certain game in the hand,
and very probable slam. 1t is equally
comforting for him to feel the same
way about your original two and three
bids in a suit. Keep your forcing bids
sound!
Second. With a seven-card suit
South might well have made a two
spade overcall at this point Against
this bid East and West will probably
not slam in n0-trumpS. II East plays
the hand at six diamonds or six clubs,
and the jack of spades is opened. he
has a bad guess about the king. If he
plays the hand at six diamonds he
also has to read the location OF the
jack Of diamonds. South felt, how
ever, that as she lacked the tops in
her suit. a defensive Overcsll would
enable the opponents to cue-bid the
hand into slam. She was prepared
to take a sacrifice little later # the
bidding died at the two or three range.
Third The conventional rebid.
Fourth. Still refusing to fOrce-but
making q very constructive bid.
Fifth. West also constructs the
hand, showing strength in spades. and
some sort of flt in either diamonds or
clubs, or both. This bid is particularly
fine in view of the part-Score of 80.
West indicates that the hand can
safely be played at the four range in
either of the minor suits.
Sixth. The slam invitation. The
queen Of spades is an important card.
Seventh. Accepted!
North, naturally, had a difficult
opening to make. The lead Of the
king of spades looked suicidal. He
finally led a small club. West took
the trick In her own hand. and re-
turned a club taking with the ace in
dummy. She then led a small heart,
and her king held the trick. Since
she must drive out the ace OF hearts
the only unavoidable loser in the hand
she must also set up the heart suit
as well Therefore. she must lead
hearts once more from dummy to
guard against the possibility of four
two division. She deliberately blocked
herself by leading small diamond.
She reasoned thus: North. presumably,
has four clubs He probably also has
four diamonds to the jack, and can,
therefore. be squeezed, whether he
holds the king of spades or not. On the
lead of the fifth heart-or the ace of
spades-North must either unguard
his jack of diamonds or discard one
OF his clubs, thus enabling West to
overtske the jack of clubs with the
king for the needed re-entry in dummy.
After South took the heart trick she
led spade. West went up with the

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

THE coat of arms here reproduced
is used by the descendants of
Percival Lowell, who came TO this coun-
try in 1889, settling in the Plymouth
Colony.
The genealogy Of the Lowell family
is traced to Walter Lowle of Yardley,
County Worcester, England, where the
Lowells hourished in great splendor.
This name has been an eminent one
in other parts Of Great Britain, and
perusal of the pages of history brings
the name Lowell again and again to
our attention in connection with posi-
tionS OF importance.
In America the Lowells have
achieved like distinction. The Boston
branch of this family has produced
men and women prominent as schol-
ars, statesmen, merchants and clergy
men.
The well known manufacturing CEN
ter Of Lowell, Mass, was named for

Brown-skinned tribes, known as
Maoris, were found by whites who
discovered New Zealand, but prob
ably had been there only a few
hundred years.
We have no. reason to suppose that
the "MaoriS" came straight to New
Zealand from Asia. That sort of thing
seldom, if ever, took place in settling
the South Seas. So far as We can
learn, the work OF settling covered a
period Of thousands Of years. tribes

ing to an island farther East.
Columbus and his men are given
due honor for using small sailing
ships to cross the Atlantic: but think
of the brown skinned people who
dared the Pacific in canoes! 1t is
known that they made canoe trips
over the ocean for distances of at
least ! 700 miles, and some voyages
probably were even longer. How many
of the bold Adventures were lost in
storms or died from starvation we
have no means Of telling. Perhaps as
many died along the way as reached

visitors to New Zealand We're of the
dugout type. followed from logs but
skillfully cut so as to take the water
easily. Each large canoe was fitted
with a sail Of triangle shape, and
extra large canoes carried two sails
apiece.
Sometimes two canoes were fastened
together by means of croSsbars, and
it is likely that the long sea voyages
were made in canoes paired together
in that manner.
Maori women had a custom of
carrying their babies on their backs
This reminds us of similar customs
in parts OF Asia and among American
