was the setting trick to be found?
She had 1t in her own hand, If only
her partner could be induced to
lead spade.
With the prayer that her partner
would see the situation, she made
the brilliant lead Of the nine Of
diamonds. Yves won with the jack,
took time uot for study, then re-
turned heart and the contract was
made.
Thus, well-thought-out de-
fensive play went for naugt, and
be it said for Mrs. Tucker that she
smiled and said only, 1T would have
been nice had you returned a
spade"
The lead Of the nine of diamonds,
of course, did direct the return Of
spade.

SPAIN was busy fighting back
the invading Moors, when
Christopher Columbus sought aid
20 prove his fanciful idea of o
westward passage to India.
Through the friendship he had
made at La Rabida convent, he
met other Spanish clerics and im-
portant retainers Of the crown,
and, in 1896. he first faced King
Ferdinand and Queen Isabella.
They referred him to a council
OF advisers at Salamanca, and
twice this group turned down his
plan. Twice Columbus sought the
ear of Queen Isabella.
Finally, he got d third hearing,
and on April II. 1892, the king
and queen signed their royal con-
sent to the venture.

Poor Little Rich Girl" Shirley
Temples latest picture, stems from
a stage play which once served

occurs in a radio studio.
The Temple picture returned to

Little Miss Shirley is seen as the
pampered pet of a millionaire who
surrounds her with maids, nurses
and buffers. The child Graves COM
partnership and playmates of her
own age and accidentally gets the
chance to have her fling.
She follows an organ grinder
(Henry Armetta) and soon her
charm and talent attract an out

and Alice Faye who draft her for
their radio addition.
Before Shirley is restored to the
arms of her distracted dad she has

Glen Echo Can Really Take
You For a Ride

The penchant of the human
race for riding places in all man
ner of fashions is INDUCED to
the top at Glen Echo amuse-
ment park.
Holiday makers can ride on the
water on the motor boat course
and the "Old Mill" They can
soar in the air on the air rides.
They can ride around and round
on the, merry-go-round, and ride
upSy-daiSy-doWnSy on the coaster
dips. They get centrifugal thrill
with their ride on the Whip"
And they can have playful col
lisions along with their rides on
the "Dodgem."
The Midway Of Fun" offers
whole bunch of rides in both
the solo and social manner. You
can have a toboggan ride on the
big slide-using your chassis for
toboggan; you can ride on the
kiddie cars; you can ride for as
as long as you can take it, on
the spinning roulette wkeel' and
in the whirling barrel and on the
jumping horse"
Even the crystal pool has its
ride-on the water slide, ending in
a colossal splash, and the swim
mers, batherS and Suntanners find
