news Of the death of the Ambassador

and recalled them to the Capital.
While Washington In general knew of
the serious illness of the Ambassador.
his death was unexpected, and among

there was quick return to Washington

occasions. hastened from the Virginia
spa, and the few members Of society
remaining in the Capital who have
been friends and admirers Of the be-
reaved family were in the long train
OF mourners who followed the caiSSon,
drawn by white horses, over the
Memorial Bridge and up the hills of
Arlington to the temporary resting
place of the late Ambassador.
The Presidents homelike and ap-
proachable cabinet is as widely scat

and the Secretary of the Navy and
Mrs. Swanson, who have temporarily
pre-empted the Rapidan (VaO Camp
OF former President Hoover, are en-
tertaining there today the Secretary

with which to double would be handful of trump and the ace of hearts.
 The declarer led a small spade and finessed the ten, which held.
 Now three rounds of trump were taken, declarer discarding three clubs from dummy. The jack of diamonds followed and was over taken in dummy with the queen. The king of hearts was played. West went right up with the ace, but the declarer trumped with the three of spades.
 North then cashed the ace of diamonds and played a small dia- moond, winning in dummy with the king. The two good heartS in dummy were cashed, two 6ubs being discarded.
 Declarer then led the good ten of diamonds. Regardless of what West did, the losing club was dis carded. If West trumped with the jack, declarer won the last trick with the seven, while if West refused to trump, the ten held the trick.
 And so all that the double did was to mark West with the ace of hearts and the trump, which information gave the declarer the play to make the hand.

Why will be a person persist in doubling a six contract just be- cause he has a handful of trump! Do you realize that, if your op- ponents arrive at a six contract that cannot be made, they are in a very bad spot and it is not neces- sary to double?
 You will probably receive top on the broad without the double. If you do double, you may give them juut the information they need to make the hand.
 A good rule to use with regard to doubling slam contracts is. "You must have two optional ways to set the contract"
 Today, with Vests holding. you may say, well, will make my ace of hearts and at least trump trick" But suppose you do not make your ace of hearts. You cannot count on haking two trump tricks on that holding against a six bid. Therefore, you should not double.
 The Play.
 East's opening lead was the king of clubs, which the declarer won in dummy with the ace. East's opening lead of the king marked him with the queen, there fore the declarer knew that West did not hold the ace, king, queen, or jack of clubs and none fthe top honors in diamonds. The only thing West could hold

The autumn show of the Lyme Art association has opened in the Old Lyme gallery to an attendance which promises to exceed in num- bers that of the recent summer exhibition. It is probable that the Lyme group-and this is a show to which only artist members contrib ute, has never before assembled so contrasting an exhibit of pictures. Sleet storm canvases are but a few feet from performing elephants;
 mermaids disport in the briny deep at no great distance from those of another species who eschew the water. There are mountain ranges and valleys transported from Hawaii and others set down from out the painted desert. True, there is the New England scene-sun splashed or blanketed with snow. But conversely the caller is given glimpses of Cornwall or the Ba- hamas. There are many homely subjects. A Model T Ford, for ex-
