The minute North bids clubs
South's hand becomes much better
He has given one weakness bid over
the double. Now he must show
strength by a free preference bid.
Vests four-diamond bid, which led
East to save at five diamonds, was
risky, but, as I said before, he over
looked his vulnerability.
North opened the ace Of spades.
South managed to find a nice small
spade in his hand to put on the trick,
so North, commanded to shift, pom
dered for some time
North realized that he and South
were fixed unless they could set East
and West 900 points, for he was posi-
tive that there was a cold vulnerable
game his way. He finally decided on
the basis of the bidding that South
held the king of hearts, with the pos
sibility of doubleton club. There
fore, he underled his ace Of hearts,
hoping thus to put South in to come
through clubs and get a club ruff on
the third round of the suit.
The tragic result is all too apparent.
West made five diamonds, doubled
Naturally, in rubber bridge North
would not dream Of making that play.
He would lay down his three aces
and wait for high discard from
South. But duplicate is a funny
game.
1t so happens that South can make
five spades with his eyes closed be-
cause Of the unusually fortunate dis
tribution and North can make five
hearts If he guesses that the queen
Of hearts is blank In the East hand.
But neither contract should be
reached.

Oyster Bisque.

Slash one pint of oysters several
times with small knife, put them
in a saucepan, and simmer for 20
minutes. Make a white sauce with
three tablespoonfuls of butter, three
tablespoonfuls of flour, one pint of
milk, and salt and pepper. Strain
the oysters through a fine sieve into
the sauce and, when blended, add
half a cupful of cream and heat thor
oughly. Use just sprinkling of mace.
A beaten egg yolk may be added to
the cream, but the bisque is delicious
without it.

failed to recover, and these only be-
cause there was not enough vitality
remaining to carry the sufferer through
the necessary adjustment to the normal.
Among these 102 recoveries were six
who were in coma when treatment was
begun, yet they lived and regained
normal blood count, without medica-
ton or even liver feeding. Those whose
recovery was permanent were the ones
who continued to live afterward as
directed. And every relapse was easily
traceable to neglect of the colon and

THE belief that q drowning person
rises to the surface three times
before dying Is very widely held. Even
Shakespeare apparently accepted 1t
(Twelfth Night. Accounts Of wit
nesses, however, reveal the fact that
some people, when drowning, have
risen to the surface many times before
finally disappearing; while other per-
sons have drowned by one submersion
and never came to the surface at all.
No rule can be made regarding the
number of times body may or may
not come to the surface.

Arms Embargo Progresses.
(New York World-Telegram.)

Encouraging is from Geneva telling of ap- proval by special disarmament conference com- mittee of the American proposal for international regulation of the traffic in arms.
 Japan and Italy, the same two powers that refused to enter into agreement to withhold arms shipments to the Chaco belligerents, decline also to accept this plan But approving it are Great Britain France the United States Czecho- slovaka and fourteen lesser nations.
 The proposed treaty provides for the registra- tion of private and public armament plants and the filling of data orders, exports and imports with central organization presumably at Geneva lit is much stronger proposal than the 1925 con- lvention just ratified by our Congress.
 Delay in setting up some effectual international control of shipments is inexcusable folly The insane duel between Paraguay and Bolivia over a strip of feverinfested jungle has lasted two years and cost the lives of at least 30,000 men. The League of Nations Chaco Commission reported that the weapons used in this senseess slaughter "are supplied to the belligerents by American and Euro lpean countries
 The unhoy traffic in lethal weapons must stop and the only way to stop it is through the CO., operation of nations.
 "Some suitable international organization mus and will take acton," said President Roosevelt re- gently. "The peoples of many countries are being taxed to the point of poverty and starvation 1T order to enable governments to engage in the mac race in armament which. if permitted to continue may well result in war.

 So rapid is our rate of growth that discoveries made in these laboratories which to have only purely academic value today, are quickly appearing in the market embodied in commercial articles. It has been found quite necessary in recent years to protect the public from uncontrolled exploitation of these discoveries. To accomplish this, the pro- feSsors making them take out patents and assign them to separate corporation organized by the university to administer them. Licenses are then granted for the commercial use of the inventions, the fees going to the universities to be applied to further research. Most of the leading universities now maintain such corporations, and they hold an increasing number of very valuable patents.

 a Art Davlin and Bill Norton, re- turning on the Northland yester- day from a months vacation ir the States, report an interesting and enjoyable trip. ! From Seattle they went to Port land, and across country to Yel- lowstone Park by bus. At the Park Entrance, they started 140- mile hike, which took them into most of the scenic spots. They took many pictures, including sev- eral reels of movies of the things that they saw.
 It was the first trip outside for Norton, who is 24 years of age and he expressed himself as being highly impressed with what he saw In this respect, he mentioned par ticularly the miles of sage brush in Southern Idaho, which he said contributed great deal to his ap- preciation of Alaska with it's rain and greenness.

The First "Pay-Off."
(New York Times)

Checks are being mailed by the Federal Deposit
 Insurance Corporation to depositors in the closed
 Fond du Lac State Bank of East Peoria, Ill. This is the first application to be made anywhere in the country, of the Federal guarantee plan which went into effect six months ago. The Fond du Lac
 Bank was an insured institution Its depostors will receive payments up to maximum of $2,500. It is reported that this limit will cover in full the claims of 99 per cent of the individual depositors
 The law directs that the Deposit Insurance Cor poration shall be named receiver when any na- tonal bank is unable to meet the claims of it's de- positors and that it shall accept appointment as receiver if named by the appropriate State author ity, in the event of failure of State bank which is a member of the guarantee plan. In either
 the corporation is directed at to organize a new national bank, which is to assume the insured deposit liabilities of the closed bank, to
 receive deposits and otherwise to function tenn porarily Thereafter efforts are to be made to provide the bank with sufficient capital to
 enable it to resume operations under the manage
 ment of it's directors. If such capital is not
 subscribed within two years, and if no merger can be effected meantime with solvent institution, the Deposit Insurance Corporation is to place the new bank in voluntary liquidation and wind up its
 affairs paying to depositofs and other creditors the amount available for distribution to them, after deducng therefrom their share of the costs of the liquidation of the closed bank
 The guarantee plan thus combines provision for reorganization or for liquidation with the insurance iof deposits up to a maximum originally set at ls2,500, but now increased (snce July D to S5000. In principle. and the ground that it may courage irresponsible banking, there is much to be said against any plan for guarantee of deposits But in practice the so-called temporary" plan now in leffect has met with approval the part of many conservative bankers who believe that it's present liabilities not dangerously large and that it has helped to restore confidence the banking structure shaken by last years panic Only two insured banks failed during the first months of 1884 This compares with average of no less than AT bank failures annually during the first six months of the decade from 1923 to 1882 While many other factors have played part in the highly favorable record of the last half year the temporary" plan seems clearly entitled to part of the credit.

PUBLIC ENEMY NO. 1.

John Dliriger Indiana farm boy, who admitted he was mot such a bad fellow you think" and who made good in such big way as to cause his listing Americas public enemy No l, lived many months on borrowed time. He made career of "cop killing" which while it undoubtedly has its exciting moments, is noted for brevity more than anything else. AS he lived, he died. Having made Judge Colt the arbiter of his destiny, it was fitting that the memorable judge should impose and execute sentence on him.
 Dillinger had his brief moment All the glory that could from life of violent crime his It wasn't really glory merely a tawdry imitation of the genuine article Notorety his He en- joyed the favors of the "molls and perhaps it was one of those who tipped off the Federal officers on the fatal visit to a moving picture house. He became first class desperado and knew the buly's highest joy of seeing almost any other man cringe before him when he boasted I'm Dillinger.' Perhaps the greatest thrill that coming from playing a game in which his own life was the stake.
 Even that palled it is evident In a desperate attempt to cheat the fate he must have known was inevitable, he tried to change his identity so that he could escape payment for his crimes against society. That only account for his dyed hair, the marks of the plastic surgery on his face, the strengthened nose. Yet it availed him not at all. Somebody had to be the inside Somebody had to know that Dillinger was in Chicago that he was planning to go to movie on Sunday evening. That sonebody knew atodt his altered appearances knew when he was going and just how he would appear. From that source the Federal officers got the information they were willing to pay $5OOO for, just chance to put hands on the bad And so he came to the end of his criminal days-the staccato barking of revovers and the acrid smell of burnt powder-and Public Enemy No. l became a mere huddle of garmented flesh
 As with John Dillinger, the mills of the gods will grind out fate for his prototypes Those who wage warfare on society in the Dilnger fashion sooner or later, usually sooner, meet the end that was his In choosing to live by violence they choose also to die violently It isn't society but they who make it so
