Memorial Day is just another mile

comparable heroism, and the tremend-
Gus sacrifices by the saviors of the
nation-those who gave their all that
it might not "perish from the EARTH"

Urgent and persistent al those who
point this way and that, and urge that
the nation pursue this way or that

We are free from civil wal but there
are those who are seeking to array
class against class and cause indust-

who would cast into the discard every
thing old and experimental with the
most vital interests Of the nation.
The question is: Shall we regard the
landmarks set by the fathers or shall
we this menacing expert
mental course?
The return of rum, the prevalence
of crime, the alarming departures
from old ethical standards, the break
down of the institution of marriage,
all indicate that the nation is turning
away from the paths which hive been
tested and tried, for theoretical and
hypothetical ones which threaten
destruction. -
While we do honor to those who died

remember that all of these and in

The bidding:
North East South West
PsTqn6 Ro Tpnap Pass Pass I pass Spade Pass Pass
South knew that he should sign off
with three spades, but this was the
first time he had played with his
partner, and he was afraid of North's
going blithely 20 three no trumps.
North was noted for having a low,
cunning nature East had played
against him before Therefore, on the
bidding, he suspected the strength of
North's diamond suit. 1t was his
best suit, anyway. He opened a low
diamond Personally, I should have
led the jack of hearts-not an in
spired lead, but one which would do
no harm.
North won Vests eight with the
jack, laid down the king and queen
of spades and drove out Vests ace Of
hearts. West exited with the nine
of clubs. East took North's king with
his ace and returned the 10 Of clubs.
Having started out with diamonds, he
should have been faithful to them
and played back the king of dia-
monds. This will embarrass North
seriously. In fict, it will set him.
North now took full advantage of
his opportunities. He played out the
ace of diamonds and the queen of
hearts, noting the drop of East's jack
with a smile and quiet satisfaction
West was put in the lead with club
and took two club tricks before he
had to lead into the dummy. Upshot:
North. that lucky son of a Mississippi
River gambler, made three no trumps.

None whatever. You can't call baths,

any one to be beautiful, especially in
Hollywood, is to learn to live on bal

~ IDDY blouses have come back
M to us in a big way-wafted
up on the tidal wave of the
new simplicity. Mother and
daughter both are delighted
with the revival of this satisfactory
fashion, for the places you can wear
styles of this type are only limited by
the quality and colors of the ma
terials that go into them.
For school wear nothing IS nicer
than a blue serge skirt and a white
MILDLY blouse of gaberdine, twill,
sateen or linen. De luxe outfits, Tor
Sunday and formal wear, are made
of cream flannel or serge-braided in
navy or red. Light interpretations are
British in the extreme and are looked
upon in many circles as correct for
very young girls to wear to parties.
These little suits can be quickly
made if the pattern you use is a good
one. Ours we recommend for its
clear sailing simplicity. The skirt
shows the customary pleats back and
front. A band finishes off the top,
and into it are worked (by hand or
machine) buttonholes, at spaced in
tervals, so that the skirt can be re-
moved from the cotton underbody

so up he went with no more waste of
time, and in minutes he was asleep
in his airy bed. 1t was warm for this
time of year. Even had it been cold.
Bobby had fur coat that would have
kept him comfortable, and jolly.
round, bright Mr.. Sun did his part all
day long. No one disturbed him, for
Blacky the Crow didn't happen that
way, and Blacky was the only one
likely to trouble him.
Late in the afternoon Bobby awoke.
For time he just lay there, yawning
and stretching and trying to make up
his mind which way he would go that
night. A sound caught his attention.
He listened. There it was again. A
fretful whine. Cautiously Bobby
peered over the edge of the nest
Down at the foot of the tree was a
large form that looked all black from
that distance. Even as Bobby looked
the new conner stood up, dug his claws
into the bark of the tree and slowly
and clumsily began to climb, all the
time talking to himself fretfully.
''Prickly Porky!" exclaimed Bobby
under his breath. with all the trees
in the Green Forest from which to
pick, why did he have to choose this
one? He doesn't sound happy. In
fact, he sounds out of sorts and peev-
ish. Perhaps he won't stay in this tree
long. I hope he won't. If he does
stay, perhaps he will go out on one
of the branches and leave the way
clear for me to get down."
But Prickly Porky the Porcupine, he
who carries a thousand little spears
in his coat, did nothing Of the sort.
He seated himself on big limb close
to the trunk of the tree, and appar-
emily he meant to stay there. Plainly
he was in bad temper, and plainly
he was not hungry. So there was no
knowing how long he would remain
right there, whining and grumbling
to himself. Bobby Coon realized that
he was treed. There was no getting
down while Prickly Porky remained
there. and that tree wasn't near
enough to any other for him to climb
across from one branch to another.
He was freed. There was no doubt
about that.
