to constantly force declarer to ruff
was to lead diamond.
The of diamonds was led.
Dumny's s covered. South took
an obligatory finesse of the 10 and
it held. A low diamond was re-
turned. North's K won. The 6

to ruff, reducing him to the same
length in trumps as North held.
The K of spades won the next
trick. Dummy's last spade was
led. Declarer's Ace won. A low
spade lead fortunately found one
card Of that suit in each defensive
hand. Dummy ruffed. The Z Of
hearts was led. South's only
trump went to declarer's K. Both
declarer and North held equal
numbers Of trumps, but declarers
spades were established, enabling
West to obtain the jump on sub
Sequent forcing tactics.
At the eighth trick the j of
spades was led. That ruined
North's hopes of defeating the con-
tract. If he did not trump, dunn
my would discard. If North
trumped low, dummy would over

Dummy discarded. AS it turned

trick had been taken. There was
nothing to be done about it. De-
clarer had played too well. North

Declarer used his last low trump

picked up North's last trump, leav-
ing the 8 Of spades to win the
tenth trick for the declaring side.

Strawberries IS per cent. From
Carriers Nutrition and Clinical
Dietetics" I find in the table Of food
values the following evidences Of
foods which have a fairly high per-
centage of water: bran 80 per cent,
chicken, light meat, 20 per cent;
Goldfish 81 per cent, black bass 76
per cent, paddock 81 per cent,
bread SO per cent, asparagus 81
per cent, string beans, fresh as pur-
chased, 83 per cent; carrots, SO per
cent, caulifower 90 per cent, on
ions 81 per cent, potatoes 70 per
cent, pumpkin SO per cent, etc.
The only foods which are very
low in water content are such dried
foods as the following: oatmeal,
uncooked, z per cent; rice IL per
cent, entire wheat flour II per cent,
crackers about 5 per cent, pretzels
9 per cent, cookies and cakes on
the average of about IL per cent,
candy, which has no water, dried
vegetables and nuts.
If it were not for this high water
content of our foods we would have
a terrible time digesting them, es-
pecially in the first process OF d.
gestion, mastication in the mouth,
and would be compelled to drink
much more water with our meals
than we do.

can be shot as easily as those
on the ground floor if they aren't
first rendered helpless with the
tear gas gun with its parachute
flare which lights up three city
blocks. A splendid example of
this was shown in the moving
picture, "Scarface."
MobsterS who feel confident
they can escape pursuit in high

thing to learn if they've never
heard of the Springfield Sporter
with the short barrel which can
hit a moving target three miles
away and is especially construct

Line Of Duty
The so-called weaker sex shows
a remarkable fortitude in the
handling Of weapons. q special
agent said. Many Of them are
familiar with firearms and like to
use them.
They are permitted to show
their skill-after the agent has
loaded the weapon himself-ex-
planned how to use it-and seen to
it that the fair visitor keeps the
barrel pointed to the right target.
BY this time, despite the air
conditioner-the air is redolent OF
q battlefield. The visitors are then
shown the four.ply steel bullet
proof vest weighing 26 pounds. Dill
linger's mistake was in picking a
two-ply steel vest-and it failed to
live up to either his or the sales
mans expectations.
The visitors, completely awed
with the modern crime-fighting sys-
tenn. are led back to the reception
room.

Weston Defies
Tradition

The paintings Of Harold Wes-
ton have been highly praised. So
high is the esteem in which he is
held that he was recently as
signed to the preparation Of
mural designs for the Federal
Warehouse.
Yet the rugged individualism"
that inspires his work leaves
something to be desired.
Mr.. Weston's work-oilS, water
colors and etchings-are now on
display in an exhibition at the
Studio House, 1914 Twenty-first
st., N. W., there to remain
through March 7.
Over all, his etchingS possibly
excepted, Mr.. Weston has woven
the spirit Of his individuality,
his disregard for tradition and
precept, his realism. In that, he
cannot be criticized.
But there is q certain unreality
in his realism, a feeling inspired
perhaps by his use Of color, by
his bold and distant outlines
by his backgrounds, sometimes
absolutely plain and sometimes
very decorative.
Mr.. Weston was born in 1894 in
Marion, Pa. He determined on
painting as a career while he was
still at Harvard. After serving
with the British Red Cross in the
Near East during the war, he re-
manned in Europe, spending sew
eral years in isolated parts Of the
PyreneeS.
He now lives in the AdirondackS
where he does most Of his paint
ing. Since he returned to this
country, his work has become in
CrNaGin0ly popular.

Liquor Harmful To Indians
 Witnesses Tell Senate Group

in the bounty but receive a salary from the government
 MT. White told the committee about his work here. He owns a plane which he purchased and op- crates at his own expense in en- forcing game laws and in the per formance of his many other duties. The senators promised Mir. White that they would do everything in their power to see that the Gau.a Commission is furnished with one or more planes in their work throughout the Territory
 Hajdukovich Speaks
 John Hajdukoyich, well-known resident of the Upper Panama, was the third witness called by the sen atorial committee.
 "So far, liquor has been kept away from the natives of the Upper Tanana region to a great extent, ]" MT Hajdukovich de.lared "For that reason, largely, the Indians m that district are much superior to the natives in other parts of AL. aska
 Lately, however, in spite of all efforts liquor has seeped into that district. Unless something is done soon to restrict the sale of liquor there the natives will soon reach the deplorable conditions which are to be seen in some of the other dis tricts in Alaska.
 Natives can not handle l.quor
 Don't Want Liquor
 All intoxicating liquor should be kept away from the Alaskan Indian They themselves, realizing the fact have asked that liquor be kept out of their communities
 In speaking of game, Mir Hajluk- Ovich said:
 There has been a sharp decrease in wild game particularly beeaus, of wolves and coyotes. Unless some thing is done to curb the actions of these destructive animals. it will lot be long until the only mountain sheep will be in ZOOS.
 Wolves now often travel in packs

 Sale of liquor among natives, and the decline of wild life in Interior Alaska were discussed at the hear ing in Fairbanks held by the Sen ate Committee on Indian Affairs. The meeting was conducted by Sem ator Elmer Thomas of Oklahoma committee chairman, Senator Lynn J. Frazier of North Dakota and Senator Heudrick Shipstead of Min nesota.
 Hurley Testifies
 "The use of liquor among natives is extremely harmful" said Julian A. Hurley, Fairbanks attorney, who was the first witness called MT. Hurleys experience is based upop nine years spent as district attor- ney in Fairbanks.
 Nearly every crime committed by an Indian while l was district attorney here, could be traced to liquor," MT. Hurley said. If there were no liquor sold to the natives in the Territory, there would be al most no crime among the Indians, in my opinion"
 The committee asked MT. Hurley if legislation were enacted prohibit ing the sale of liquor among In- iians, could it be enforced. Fed eral legislation could be enforced, Mr. Hurley replied.
 S. o. White, game warden for the Fairbanks district, was the second witness called.
 Wolves Kill Game
 Hunters are not responsible for the great decline in Alaskan wild life. Wolves are the cause. The few animals that are killed each year by hunters for meat, cannot com pare with the great numbers Of game animals that are slaughtered by wolves. I would recommend that the bounty system of S20 for ea'h wolf captured or killed should be continued. if not increased.
 Resident trappers should be as- sisted by trained, government bu- reau experts who would not share

of 20 or 30, anu they can bring down the largest bull moose with no trouble at all. I agree with MT White in regard to the bringing Of an expert trapper to this district. Much could be accomplished if this were done"
 After the hearing the senators visited the University of Alaska They were amazed and delighted at what they saw. They did not ey- pect, they said later, to find such large and modern institution. One of the senators said:
