Psychological Savages

The natives of Dahomey, a French
West African colony, seldom seek
divorce; they have a custom that,
usually, makes it unnecessary.
Tribal tradition centuries old
established by some ancient chief
rich in human understanding
DEGREES that when a man and his
wife quarrel, both must go to oppo-
site corners of the room and, facing
the wall, mediate in silence, for a
fixed period. This over, the man
speaks first, but all he is permitted
to say is I'm an idiot" This he
shouts 100 times. When he has fin
ished the wife does likewise. Then
both turn, advance to the center of
the room and together cry "We are
idiots" This ends the ritual. Both
are now free to do whatever they
please. In innumerable instances
they do just what the old chief ex-
pected-burst out laughing and for
get their quarrel.

HINT-OF-THE-DAY

The intelligent way to go about
changing the style of your hairdress
is to sit before your mirror after
you have given your hair a thor
ough brushing away from the scalp.
Comb your hair back from the face.
Determine which hair-do will accent
your good features and soften your
less glamorous ones.
If you can afford it, go to an ex-
pert stylist and let him take you in
hand. Otherwise go to a good bar
Der and get hair cut once you have
decided on the exciting new style.
Try to suit your type, your mood,
your clothes. Try all sorts of parts
until you find one that does a lot
for you.

While motoring through Wales,
David Lloyd George was forced to
stop in a very small village be-
cause of darkness. Seeking ho-
tel, he stopped in front of a big
building, got out and rang the bell.
"Sir," he said to the man who
appeared, 81 should like to find
shelter for the night"
"Shelter? Here?" replied the as
tonished porter. ''This is an in
sane asylum"
"But 1 must sleep somewhere.

have five Lloyd Georges among
our inmates. There is always

LARGEST Curtain

AS you think, your face and eyes
express your thoughts. Catch a
glimpse of yourself in a mirror as
you converse with a friend. Notice
how your eyes sparkle and your
lips turn upward when you speak

appears and your eyes dim when
you talk of sorrow or feel sad.
Your lips narrow and your eyes
partly close when you give vent to
anger or gossip maliciously. Would
you have believed it?
Do you know that every unworthy

The Pilgrims were the first Eng
fish settlers in New England, but
they were not the first who had any
dealings with the Indians. Years
before, a sailing vessel had visited
the coast about 200 miles north of
Plymouth.
That explains how the Indian
named Samoset happened to know
q few English words. He had Wis
tied with English fishermen aboard
the sailing vessel.
We are told that when Samoset
first came to the little colony, he
called out two words of greeting
welcome, Englishmen!" What a
fine greeting that was! Here was
q small band of people who had
come to settle in wilderness, and
here was an Indian who tried to
make them feel welcome.
Samoset seems to. have been a
member of the Abnaki tribe, and
his real homeland was around the
present city of Bristol, Me. For
a reason not known, he had wan
dered to the Cape Cod country,
and had been there about eight
months before the Pilgrims ar
rived. The meaning of the name
Samoset has been given as He
who walks too much"
Another Indian friend of the
Pilgrims was Squanto, a member
Of the Wampanoag tribe. He not
only visited them, but taught

them how to plant Indian corn, or
maize. Crops of this grain helped
to keep the colonists from starving.
One day Samoset and Squanto
came to Plymouth together, and
said, "Massasoit, the chief of the
Wampanoags, is coming to see you'll"
Soon afterward Massasoit came,

With a high caro- value OF l4H2
and eight honor cards, Mr.. Schen-
ken's opening was practically a min
imum: and if Mr.. Maier had simply
jumped to six no-trump right over
two, Mr.. Schenken would have
passed. However. Mr.. Maier first
bid three diamonds and then six
no-trump. Bearing this in mind,
Mr.. Schenken now realized that his
king-Jack of diamonds must be par
ticularly valuable cards and would
serve to solidify a diamond suit
which he knew his partner must
have. Hence he contracted for seven
no-trump.
The queen of clubs was opened.
Mr.. Schenken won in his own hand
with the king and promptly saw
that q A break in diamonds would
give him 10 tricks Accordingly, his
first play was the king Of diamonds.
He followed with the jack and was
somewhat annoyed to find West dis
carding club. However, Mr..
Schenken saw no great cause for
alarm. It was almost certain that
West held the queen ack-ten OF
clubs. Accordingly, simple three
suit squeeze was possible. He cashed
the ace-king queen of spades, dis
carding a heart from dummy, led
club to dummy's ace and cashed the
ace-queen of diamonds, discarding
two clubs from his own hand.
At this point dummys last four
cards were the king and one heart,
the nine of clubs and low diamond.
East had to hold the high diamond
and hence could not have more
than three hearts. West had to hold
a high club and also could not have
more than three hearts. Therefore,
irrespective of the original heart dis
tribution, Mr.. Schenken knew the
suit would drop and spread his hand.
It will be noted that the way the
cards actually were, West had been
squeezed and forced to let go a
heart on the last diamond play.
