zeal play to make. South could
see that. If the trick were won
with the king, the declarer was

North and South to take only two

Into Losing Contract.
Solution to Previous
Contract Problem

This is the second OF a series Of
hands by Miss Elinor Murdoch of
New York city, winner of the indi-
vidual national masters event and
Americas outstanding wo m n
player.
I asked Miss Murdoch II she be-
lieved that women were as capable
Of thinking as quickly at bridge
as men. Her answer was that quick
thinking did not play a significant
part in bridge, but correct anali-
zation of q hand was a more i'm.
portant factor.
Most women are inclined to
play a hand along set lines. They
are not willing to try something
unusual, but to win at bridge, you
cannot always play a hand in a
mechanical fashion.
Here's a nice play that Miss
Murdoch made in a championship
event to defeat what looks like
a iay-down game. Miss Murdoch
was sitting in the South and. as
her partner did not bid hearts.

PARIS STYLES
BY MARY FENTREss

Paris (UP)-It's just about time
that hats were mentioned in this
column, but the subject is such 2
battling one this season that 1t has
been put off again and again. After
careful inspection of the spring
bonnets at all the showings, one
can come to but one conclusion
you can wear almost anything in
the way of headgear and get away
with it.
Some are big, with wide,. fioppy
brims. Some are little and brim-
less--in this case they must be or
the-face. Some crowns are high
and some are shallow; some ere
completely fiat at the top and
others rise to an elfin peak. With
such a generous field to choose from.
everyone ought to be able to find
something suitable and becoming.
Marcel Rochas, like Schiaparelli.
is noted for showing something out
of the ordinary. His spring hats
have a small brim turning down
about the face and have a three
or four inch crown. which gets
smaller and smaller at the top. He
also shows wide-brimmed garden
party hat which has no top to the
crown. Might be awkward II you
were trying to cover up the fact
that you hadn't been to the hair
dresser lately.
An extreme, off-the-face version
of the Mickey Mouse hat is shown
at several houses. By the way,
he is the most popular American
movie star with the French. They
call him Meekie Moose. These
hats are shown in fabric az well
as straw.

GLORlFYIN6


or all the fascinating new beauty
gadgets on the market right now.
tompacfs seem to be. the most
novel. The powder-and-rcuge-lxit
manufacturers have outdone them
selves to make their products i'm
notwithstanding as well as handy
and useful.
One especially nice new come
pact, put out by q famous French
couturfer. Is q hollow, egg-shaped
oval. Suspended on a neat cord
that Is worn about your wrist,
this opens up to reveal space for
loose powder and two smaller
compartments for rouge, lipstick,
few pieces OF change or a dainty
evening handkerchief.
There are new lipsticks that
get right into the spirit Of spring
and add q touch Of interest to the
makeup ensemble you carry IN
your bag. Many of them follow
the vague for monograms, having,
instead of the manufacturers'
name, a blank space where you
put your own name or initials.
The pop-up varieties are newest
- you shove jeweled button up
the side OF the case, the lid flies
up automatically and the hpstick
itself comes out OF the. top. These,
are tobacco and DUST
proof.
You can get, at no extra cost,
lipsticks to match not only your
complexion, but the colors of your
various costumes. No excuses for
carrying a red lipstick case II You
generally wear pink or orange.
Ask your favorite cosmetic de
partment to put your own shade
in a white, pink or orange case
wardrobe.
Look, too, at the new mascara
cases. One smart set, including
the makeup itself and small
brush for application, is done up
in a miniature trunk Of metal.
Push the top of the little trunk
to one side and there you have
your eye makeup.

Her eyes glittered feverishly in

"How-how can / escape from

He laughed. and something Of
the wholesome quality of his
own good, gentle personality
touched her with a sort of healing,
releasing her from the mutinous
tensions which had bound her all
day.
"Well, the victorians used to

''Not-not much!" she confessed.

CHAPTER VI
Zoe, after all, was not angry.
Katharine's heart softened when
she saw her at the Country club
dance--smaIl and round and wist-
full in her floating printed silk,
which was the prize of the frocks
she. had brought back from Paris.
It was q gala night at the club.
Ribbons OF colored paper few back
ana forth, and balloons were set
free, only to be punctured by the
cigaret Of some roisterer. Kath-
arine danced with DR. Kaye, to be
cut in upon again and again. She
looked lovely tonight in clear ivory
silk, the gown nodded to the lines
Of her exquisite young figure. Ber-
tine Strykhurst, glancing at Kath-
arine's animated face, as she
laughed and talked with John
Kaye, observed to her husband
with satisfaction that Katharine
had evidently forgotten all about
that career nonsense.
Frank Corliss, the typical soph-
omore. in elegant English dinner
clothes. with real pearls for studs,
made a foil for Zoe Parker. Lisa
Parker and Berthe both agreed
that they were a charming pair.
"He seems quite mad about her."
Lisa sighed. II wouldn't mind see-
ing her settle down--after this last
year"
you've had worrying time Of
it," agreed Berthe, who knew all
about Gibbs and who. although not
mother herself, would tell any
one who cared to listen that the
girl of to-day was certainly q prob
lem.
THE only thing Katharine really
seems to care about" Berthe said
brightly. lis riding. Really, I wish
sometimes that Victor had let her

quite sure like the idea of expos

"Oh, Katharine's all right" Lisa
Parker said comfortably. watching
Zoe's brown curN bob against
young Corliss' black-coated shoul-
der. "She is so serene. Nothing
ever seems to trouble her."
Berthe started to reply, but
thought better of 1t. People mis-
understand so, IL she said a single
word about Katharine! That was
what it was to be a stepmother.
Nobody gave you the least bit of
credit.
Katharine steered John out on
the terrace. 'Noisy!" she observed,
dropping against a pillar.
"And hot!"
"John, you see what I mean
about father and Berthe? I have
ne had a chance to talk to you all
day."
He nodded. 81 see. They want
