major suit. South raised the hearts,
but became alarmed when North
assisted the diamond bid to three.
Fearing that North had failed to
read the original diamond as an
approach bid, South went back TO
three hearts. North now counted
his partner for four hearts, and
decided that the best try for game
would be in that suit.
XXTHEN dummy went down,
w North knew that he was in
a most irregular contract, which
probably would be reached by no
other pair
To make the contract would sure
ly be top; and to lose it, whether
by one trick or several, would be
a bottom score. Therefore, he had
to risk everything in a desperate
effort to make the bid.
The hand offered just a chance
to make 10 tricks-one club, five
diamonds. and four hearts. 1t
would be necessary to depend on
a 3-3 break in hearts, and to pro-
vide against a possible losing heart
flneSse.
Declarer had to take the risk of
ruffing with his own four card suit,
and hoping to pick up the trump
with dummy's three hearts, rather
extreme measure.
After winning the first club with
the ace, declarer Immediately
trumped a club in his own hand.
He then tried the heart f1nesse,
which was unsuccessful, and West
returned another club.
Declarer ruffed again, and laid
down the king of hearts, his last
trump. He now entered the dummy
with diamond, was fortunate
enough to drop the two outstanding
hearts with dummy's ace, and the
diamonds were all good.

XTE all know that good bid

that another fellow whom I hardly
know told the kids I was a fast
little number. Then to top it all
I got tired of the boy who repeated
the gossip and now I'm afraid he'll
say something against me. He is
rather loud-mouthed, which is the
reason I am sick Of him. Don't mis-
understand me. I'm easy to get
along with. I always have plenty
Of dances and all that sort of thing,
but lately two people have asked
me questions which all lead back to
what my boy friend told me. What
shall I do? WORRIED.
Answer-It is a dangerous thing
to get it into your head that
every one is against you. Any
one who gets such a notion
should combat it vigorously. In
its mildest form it makes you an
uncomfortable person to know. In
its extreme form it makes you I'M
fit to function in society at all.
Let common sense come to your
rescue. People aren't sufficiently
interested in you to be against
you for long, if at all. They're
interested in themselves.
All you have to worry about is
what you are. An unjust accusa-
ton may be mildly annoying, but
the person who is really sure of
himself is able to laugh it off. In
my opinion, your boy friend was
simply putting you on in the first
place. It was simply his way of
bringing a tabooed subject into the
conversation.
Dear Jane Jordan-For the last
four years I have been going with
a man whom I really love. I see
him every night and do not seem
to tire of him in the least. He
seems to think the world Of me, too

9 o'clock he meets her for a couple
of hours. 1 can't figure it out, but
maybe you can tell me why.
He treats me as if he cares for

few hours every Sunday night.

possibly can that 1 truly love him
and do think ne cares for me. Is
there anything I can do to keep him
from her? DEEP IN THOUGHT.
Answer-Before marriage many
men require two women, one vir-
tuOus and one not. I may be
wrong in this instance, Of course,
but if I were you I wouldn't in

The unique dwelling, constructed
with cinder concrete f1reproof walls
and steel and concrete floors, sits
in lonely majesty on a hill in the
midst Of a 62-acre estate. From
every window one glimpses magnifi-
cent vistas Of sparkling water and
wooded slopes. One entire wall of
the enormous living room is glass so
that none Of the view will be shut
of.
Rooms Flooded With Sunlight
Sunlight is the prime object. The
dining room has a semi-circular
outside wall constructed of glass
bricks. Every master bedroom has
its own spacious sun-deck, and the
guest rooms have private patios.
Use is made, too, of magma light
glass, which is translucent and
throws light into the room in
winter.
Furniture. wall treatments and
fabrics throughout are modern. The
stair rails are chromium, the floors
of rubber. cork or maStic tile. Glass
and bakelite are used for table tops.
The ground floor serves as an en-
trance to the dwelling and also to
house the heating and air condi-
tioning plants, which would be rele-
gated to a basement if there were
one. This floor includes a plant
room with dozens of varieties of
cacti embedded into a great concrete
trough running almost the length of
the room; an Office, bar and pow
der room.
Above. on the main floor the liv-
ing room, stair hall and library are
combined into one great unit which
can be divided with draperies. Near
~ all the lighting is concealed, and
even the fixtures, when there are
any. seem to be part of the wall or
the piece Of furniture they illumin-
ate.
