be reached on the North and South hand.
 West made the opening lead of the queen of hearts, and the suit was 50 distributed that this usually dangerous lead proved the most satisfactory defensive play. South won with the ace and then put dummy in with the ace of spades to take a club flnesse.
 When East failed to follow with 0 club, West refused to win with the king. Another round of clubs was taken, the ace winning. A club was returned, but West could count and refused to cash his king.
 The last club in dummy, thus, never made Q trick and declarer went down one.
 Declarer's correct play was to have laid down the ace of clubs on winning the first trick. Then he was sure to win four clubs, two hearts, two spades, and one diamond.

CONTRACT BRIDGE
Decarer Uses Up Single Outside Entry in Dummy to
 Mako Finesse. and Finds Himself Trapped
By VIM. E. MCKINNEY of the American Bridge League

In rubber bridge play, there is only one clear objective before de- clarer, and that is fulfillment of his contract. If he must take @ risk that appears to be great, he is fully justified so long as the chance, if 1t wins, will give him the trick he requires.
 It is equally true that, in playing rubber bridge, the overtrick, so valuable in duplicate games where match point scoring is used, is practically valueless. For instance, the declarer who risks the safety of a game contract for 30 additional points should consult Q mental spe- cialist, for the extra trick often is worth almost nothing at all in the final scoring.
 It follows then, if a dangerous finesse unnecessary to fulfill Q con- tract, 1t should be taken; but if the contract can be fulfilled with out 1t, and the 1inesse risks any, thing, 1t should not be taken.

Paris Styles
By MARY FENTREsS

Paris-Mainboch new collec- ton has many new fashion tricks including short-skirted afternoon dresses with trains, beach dresses like schoolgirl pinafores and even- ing gowns with one cape or sleeve only.
 For beach wear he uses checked gingham for shorts worn under knee length pinafores which fasten in back. For day and sports wear his line is tailored and conserva- tive but he branches out in fam tasy and in gorgeous materials for afternoon and evening. Numerous prints in crepes and chiffons are used for the trained afternoon or garden party gowns which are worn with large-brimmed straw hats.
 Evening gorwns vary from the classic gowns with tight-fitting bodices, narrow shoulder straps and long, swirling skirts to complicated gowns of chiffon and affeta in matching prints. Int his category are the chiffon gowns in pastel-colored floral prints with taffeta, printed in the same design, trimming the dec- olletage and inserted in the back skirt to form train.
 Other chiffon evening gowns are full skirted and worn over tightly fitting underskirt which is split to the knee. Some evening gowns, cut like the garden party dresses, are trained in back and mid-calf length in front with a brightly colored tulle petticoat' frilling out in front. The tulle petticoats carry out the main color note seen in the print of the gown. For intimate dinners at home he uses Q filmy redingote, made on negligee lines usually in print, to be worn over @ long foun- dation of one color seen in the print.

Health Officer Takes To Snow
Shoes In Making Trip

Snowshoes were brought into use
by DR.. Eugene C. Peck, county health
officer, last week, when it became nee
essary for him to make professional
trip to the Walnut Bottom community
east of Swanton, to administer toxin
anti-toxin to two persons who had con-
tracted diphtheria.
Mrs. Sampson Paugh and Charles
Harvey, living in that neighborhood,
were the patients and a report on the
cultures taken from them was received
at the health Office last Monday, show
ing positive cases.
AS the highways were blocked with
huge drifts of snow, DR.. Peck I'M
earthed his snowshoes which radn't
been in use since he was youth in
Connecticut. He and Mrs. Peck, who
made the trip with him, got within
about two and one-half miles of their
objective in their automobile, but had
