Wednesdays storm had some little influence on the school, for it provided us with an unexpect- ed half holiday. The pupils, upon arriving at school, were greeted with the news that there would be no classes until afternoon. Students and teachers spent the morning viewing the h V o c wrought by the storm, and, at least where the older boys were concerned, doing what they could to help.

The second and third graders are very proud of their pictures of the storm depicting the waves dashing over the jetty and bulk heads, houses partially washed away, and other typical scenes in contrast, they also made cut. paper flower designs.

In an Oriental antique shop, Anna May Wong was working out her destiny as Daughter of Shan ghai," first of the War-inspired movies to get under way. Stran- gely, this is mystery story and, but for the title, owes nothing to the Sino-Japanese trouble.
 Anna May was charming, as all ways. She had planned to retire to China, you'll remember, and she was glad she had changed her mind. Her return was not unexpected. It's unusual only when an actress really retires.
 But I have sister in Shang- hai," she said. After the first battle there l had a cable from her. She was all right then. l cabled her right back to get the hell out of there"
 
 w. C. Fields, looking in the pink and quite cherubic-even his nose has paled somewhat was working in practically sol- tary splendor on the great mod ernistic ship set of "The Big Broadcast"
 Except for actor Jeff Erickson, his audience was composed en- tirely of set workers, all of whom laughed uproariously at his tricks
 It seemed symbolic, this day, Fields working alone. Symbolic of the speed with which certain other Paramount players, when picture-stealing Bill was assigned to the picture, found as many per sons as possible why they could- mt appear in it.

Actually, with East and West each holding two trumps and with any lead except diamonds, the hand is safe against any adverse diamond holding, as South proceeded to prove.
 West, naturally, opened the heart king and the trick was won In dunn my with the ace. Now low heart was returned and ruffed by the de- clarer. This was the first step in guarding against adverse diamond distribution.
 A low trump was led and the king in dummy won. Another heart re- turn was ruffed by the declarer. Again 8 trump trick was won in dummy, on which both opponents followed, and trumps were cleared.
 Now dummy's last heart was ruffed, and the ace and king ot clubs cashed. Then the ace of dia- monds led, and then low diamond as one trick must be lost in any event. West played the jack and

CONTRACT BRIDGE
Strip End Play Succeeds Adverse Diamonds Split 41 But
 Decarer Takes Advantage of Opening '' Lead Makes Six Spades
By VIM. E.. MCKINNEY Secretary of the American Bridge League

South's six spade contract looked very safe, when West opened @ heart and the dummy was spread on the table. Apparently 1t depended upon @ three-two break in the dia- mond suit.
 Many bridge players would at once assume that East would have three-two break in the diamond suit. Many bridge players would at once assume that East would have trhee diamonds, and West two, or vice versa, and would believe that the contract could not be made if the diamonds were divided Al or 6-0.

Faulkner Gives Historical Talk
 toUpper Grades
Human Liberty Important Today as in Washington
 and Lincoln's Time

Human liberty is just as import ant today as it was in the time of Washington and Lincoln,' said H. l.. Faulkner who addressed the up- per grades in the grade school au- ditorium Friday afternoon. Wash ington and Lincoln were great be- cause of one thing-their interest in human liberty
 MT Faulkner spoke of the way the children in old Greece were re- quired to memorize long lists of tie names of heroes. Tt should be rela- lively easy for us today, to memor- ize some of the thoughts of great men, and keep them ever before us," the speaker said.
 Biblical history was referred to, to show the change in the thinking of the people regarding gods. The Hebrews, for instance, thought their God, Jehovah, was interested only in themselves. Later, however, they came to realize that God was in- terested in all individuals.
 The immaculate G--dstone, of England was referred to in contrast to the slouchy Lincoln, yet, both were great in that they were in terested and worked for human lib- erty for all individuals regardless of class or creed
 T. Floyd Dryden expressed his appreciation for the talk on be- half of students and teachers.
