Early Plows Fell Short
of TYpe That Came Later

The early pillow fell far short of
the dictionary definition-"An inn
plement to cut, lift, invert, and
partly pulverize the SOIL" Even as
late as 1850 plows failed to cut
and turn a clean furrow. "They
rooted, but would not invert, the
soil"
In the South the shovel plow was
used almost universally until some
years after the Civil war. Records
in the Bureau of Agricultural En-
cheering show they were ''made of
wrought iron in the shape of
an Irish shovel, with loop on the
backside for the stock to enter. They
generally are made by the black
smith on the plantation where they
are used. They are drawn through
the ground with one horse or mule
49, throwing the dirt both ways.
1t is pretty much like dragging a cat
by the TAIL"
The sold Colony plow used in
the United States about 1920, re-
ports the 1899 Department of Ag-
riculture Yearbook, left burrows
standing up like the ribs of lean
horse in March. A lazy plowman
might sit on the beam and count
every bout (circuit) of his days
work.

Queen Elizabeth,s Gowns

Queen Elizabeth is said to have
left more than three thousand hab-
its in her wardrobe when she died,
including gowns, petticoats, kirtles,
doublets, and mantles, some en-
broidered with jewels and others
made of velvet and damask. A high
functionary who was received by
the queen in audience described her
dress as follows: ''The queen had
two great pearls in her ears with
very big drops. She wore red false
hair and a small crown. Her neck
was uncovered and she had huge
necklace Of exceeding fine jewels.
Her gown was white silk all
bordered with white pearls as big
as beans. She wore a mantle Of
blush silk shot with silver threads
and very long train" She is de-
scribed as twain and effeminate,
though brusque and masculine"

according to Hoyle''

The Hoyle referred to in the
phrase according to Hoyle" was
Edmond Hoyle, a writer on games,
who was born in England in 1872.
Little is known about his life. Tradi-
ton says he was educated for the
bar. At any rate, he went to Lon
don where he spent much of his
time writing on games and giving
lessons in card playing, especially
whist. He published book in which
he systematized the laws and rules
Of whist, a game on which he was
considered an authority as late as
the middle of the Nineteenth CEN
tury. His name became proverbial
as an authority on games. Playing
a game according to Hoyle," came
to mean playing it fair and ac-
cording to the recognized rules.
Hoyle died in London in 1869.

Yarmouth Port Founded
by 80 Cane Cod Pioneer,

The old customs port of Var
mouth, Nova Scotia, was founded
by a group Of eighty hardy pioneers
from Cape Cod, Massachusetts, in
1861.
The tract Of country surrounding
Yarmouth was originally known as
Cap Fourchu-the name bestowed
by Champlain in 1904, meaning
''forked" or "cloven" cape. In
1859, after the capture of Quebec
by Wolfe, number of New Eng
landers migrated north, and a grant
Of land on the western tip of Nova
Scotia was made to prospective set
tlersfrom Yarmouth, Massachusetts,
who named the new site after their
own town. Building operations got
under way in June, 1851, with the
arrival of the actual colonists from
Sandwich, Cape Cod.
The first families to arrive, the
Landers, the Perrys and the Ellises,
came in a fishing shallop, laden
with their household effects. Other
families soon followed. The first
winter was very severe, and, to add
to the discontinue of the pioneers,
the ship commissioned to bring
their winter supplies failed to ar
rive, and the little settlement sub
sisted on fish and gifts of venison
from the friendly Micmacs.
In the spring eleven of the seven
teen first families returned to New
England. However, others, mostly
fishermen, took their places, and
the settlement prospered. In three
years the first ship was launched,
and so began the industry that was
to make Yarmouth-built ships IA
nous on the seven seas and Var
mouth sea captains known the
world over. Her great clipper ships
brought prosperity, and the little
fishing village grew into a busy port,

Teachers Told
Creative Work
Aids Relations

Creative activities which move
from schools to homes to commu-
tiles are to be the solution of prob
lens in human relationships, DR..
Jean Betzner, assistant professor of
education at teachers college, Co.
lumbia University, told Indianapolis
teachers yesterday.
THE old can't accomplish this
alone, but the old and the young
can do it together" DR.. Betzner said
I'VE all are aware of the changes
in our schools. The creative arts
have entered into the scheme of
Things to make more concrete what
we teach. Creative activity has re-
suited where an individual or a
group is engaged in meeting new,
or old situations with new angles. "
Examples of the activity in ele-
mentary schools according to DR..
Betzner are evidenced in painting,
modelling, drama, gardening, cos
tune making, music, cooking and
interior decorating.
DR.. Betzner addressed the Indian
apolis branch of the Association for
Childhood Education in Ayres audi
forum.
Increased independence, feeling of
significance, desire for more knowl-
edge and an awareness of POSSIBLE
tiles and limitations were enumer-
ated at the meeting as the meaning
of the emphasis of creative arts for
the child.

SLAM MADE BY END PLAY

when East showed out, the ace
was played.
Declarer counted East with at
least six clubs, due to his double.
The only chance to make the
hand was to find every card right.
Declarer next led the ace and
king of diamonds, discarding a
club from dummy. A small dia-
mond was ruffed with the four of
spades, then a small club was re-
turned and ruffed with the five
of spades. Next a diamond was
trumped in dummy with the six
of spades.
Declarer then cashed the ace,
king and queen of hearts. The
eight of spades was played and
the nine f1nessed, West winning
with the ten.
West now had to lead from his
queen-seven of spades into de-
clarer's king jack. This play gave
declarer his contract.

Role
in Politics Is
Outlined Here

It is up to women to make the
words politicians" and patriots"
synonymous Mrs. E. C.. Rumpler,
American citizenship department
chairman of the Seventh District
Federation of Clubs, told members
today at the Claypool.
''This is election year. Don't be
ashamed of your political convic-
tions," the speaker said. women
must desire to be citizens in the
fullest sense of the word and not
just residents of a city.
"It is highly important that
women participate with men in the
building of national program.
Women usually think in terms of
welfare, and men in terms of
money. When the two points of
views are adjusted we are to have
a superior government"
Miller Hamilton of the Indian
apolis Water Company, presented a
motion picture, Water Colors."
Mrs. Frank Symmes, division of law
observance chairman, and Mrs.
H. w. Phipps, division of Amer
icanization and citizenship train

Solution to Previous
Contract Problem
BY w. E. M'KENNEY
- W. lie 1'A AAA]4NAN6
Secretary American Bridge League

secretary American Bridge League
GONE time ago I wrote up a
~ hand whereby the declarer, by
creating triple end play, was
able to make contract of four
spades against a trump suit that
was punched on his left.
Oddly enough, here is similar
hand that came up in a recent
rubber game played in the Caven-
dish Club of New York, one of
Americas old bridge clubs, located
in its new quarters in the Ambas-
sador Hotel.
The hand was played by M. D.
Maier of New York, who is rated
one of the outstanding rubber
bridge players in the country.
Since East had doubled three
clubs, West opened the eight of
clubs. 1t would seem as though
declarer could cash dummy's good
king of clubs and discard a small
diamond. This play, however,
would lose.
Declarer's first play was to lead
a small spade, after winning the
first club trick with the ace, and,
