that ii is impossible for anyone,
whether a skilled player or be-
ginner, to play these hands without
improving his game.

WORLD BRIDGE OLYMPIC
TO BE HELD

All local bridge players are be-
ing invited to participate in the
Fifth Annual World Bridge Olym-
pic to be held throughout the en-
tire world Tuesday, February 4, at
500 p. NJ, according to an an
nouncement made by Mrs. j. b..
Goggins, who has been selected by
the Olympic Committee as game
captain for this city.
The World Bridge Olympic is re-
garded as the most unique and in
teresting event in bridge activi-
ties. Last year sixty-five different
countries were representa- among
the 100000 people who played the
same sixteen hands at the same
hour and the same minute. This
years hands have been selected by
twenty-five of Americas foremost
bridge players. For each of the six
teen hands these master minds of
Contract Bridge have decided cor
rect bidding and play, and if a
player reaches the correct final
contract, and plays his cards cor
rectly, he has scored a PAR. Play

other unfortunates on the verge of
going to the bread line. He is not
going to be invited to dine with

can purchase a house dress for one

occasionally five or ten dollars for
a street dress when the husband
must pay twenty dollars for a fair

made with respect to shoes and

The Detroit tribune. (Detroit, Mich.) 1935-1966, 1936-01-25
The Higher Standard
Of Living

cannot expect to obtain the pearl
of great price.
What is commonly referred to as
the lower standard of living is
really the higher standard. When
a Negro friend of mine complained
not long ago that his salary had
been cut below seven and a half
thousand dollars a year he had in
mind the loss of some luXuries aud
destroying agents with which he
had been supplying himself and
family. He has made no large in
vestments which have thereby been
impaired, and he has purchased no
extensive property area the pay
ments on which had to be suspend
ed. However, he will have much
less to throw away.
This man thinks that he has
been conforming to high standard
of living, but on the contrary it has
been rather low. He has been
spending his salary for what he
wants rather than using it wisely
for what he needs. About all a
man needs daily as food is one or
two eggs in the morning with
plenty of fruit or cereal, a sand
which or the like at noon, and
good supper of vegetables with
little lamb, fish or chicken at din
ner. Most food and drink in addi-
ton to these destroy life as do tea
coffee, sweets, wines, liquor, and
tobacco.
One needs as a rule not more
than one good pair of shoes a year,
one inexpensive suit of clothes
with a similar allowance for
shirts, underwear, and few other
