Even though a hand is bid prop erly, there still is something left in the play, as every bridge player has found to his cost from time to time.
 I think 1t is not too much to say that more than half the time, when hand goes down one trick, de- cIarer could have made his contract had he chosen a different and usu- ally sounder line of play.
 The method by which todays contract was reached might be termed optimistic.
 Vests opening lead was the deuce of clubs, which was won by South with the ace. Declarer could see II sure tricks in diamonds, three spades, three clubs. and one heart.

to make his contract was to find West with the king of hearts, and thus make the trick needed for q slam. eouth's reasoning was cor- rect, but his application was bad, as he at once led the nine of hearts, hoping that West would let the queen win.
 But West went right up with the king and returned heart, dropping both the ace and queen, and the hand was defeated.
 If South. instead, had cashed hla clubs, and used his last club to put West in tho lead. then West would have been forced Co lead away from his king Of hearts, thus giving de- clarer his contract,

"The Cycle of Life"

1t takes all kinds of things
To make a life,
Gay things, dear things, bitter things
Strife.
And yet, beneath Life's crushing
load,
Those who toll as they climb
The high road,
Will find rest and peace at the end
OF the day, -.
If they have helped, through their
faith,
Those they met on the way.
1t takes all kinds of people
To make a life,
The rich folks, the poor folks.
The sad folks, the gay.
Folks who toll, and folks who play
Each passing day,
And throw the night away.
People who dream only of wealth and
But what can they take from the
earth,
That last hour?
1t takes all kinds Of things
To make a life grow 80.
Pure dreams of love and light.
Dead hopes, dim faith, a tragic hour
When life is stripped Of all
Promise bright;
Each one a heart throb, they come
With the years,
But the kind heart, the brave heart
When tumults cease,
Is richer for memories In spite
Of the tears.
Then Life is peace, An peace.
