thank his Cousin Cora for the nice
letter. and I believe that every one
who ever heard of Old Salem church
will get something out of this letter.
also appreciate your compliment
about making the writing of my trip
plain. If you ever see as many as one
big word in this column, you may
know at once that 1t is either used as
joke or just to fill up a space, as
big words are not in my world.
And speaking of going back to the
Old Time Religion, l very often wish
I could go way out to some country
church where the men go to preach
ing in their shirt sleeves and try to
be comfortable instead of trying to
look stylish, and where the whole con-
gregation joins in the singing of old
time tunes and songs like Amazing
Grace, Jesus Lover OF My SOUP,
NEARER My God To Thee, "Shali We
Gather At The River?", "How Firm
A Foundations" and lots of others of
that kind of songs. ' p
And as you say, Cousin Cora, It
would indeed be a rare happening for
someone to burst right out in church
into some good, old-tiine Shouting. But
I don't believe they can ever get the

Hell Divers" mighty romance of aviation in the navy, with Wal lace Beery and Clark Gable CO., starred and a supporting cast which includes such prominent players as Conrad Nagel, Dorothy Jordan, Marorie Rambeau and Marie Pre- vost, is providing thrills at a re- turn engagement which opens to- night at the Capitol Theatre.
 The Metro Goldwyn Mayer dra- ma, filmed with the cooperation of the navy at the Panama maneu- vers, aboard the airplane carrier Saratoga, and at North Island, has in it practically every air thrill the service achieves in it's annual train ing.

when defending against a no trump

played q small club. DR.. Muhsom
played the jack of clubs and dummy's

small club from dummy and DR..
Muhsom's partner followed with the

considerable thought, DR.. Muhsom
played the king of clubs, figuring that
it was his only chance to defeat the
contract. Moreover 1t appeared very
likely that DR.. Muhsom's partner held
the 10 Of clubs, since he had played
the . on the second club trick.
Declarer now realized that unless he
could bring in the spade suit, he would
lose the hand. He therefore played
the king and one spade, only to dis
cover that he could cash only three
spade tricks. In attempting to run
the spade suit, declarer set up East's
10 OF spades. He was then compelled
to allow East to gain the lead with the
10 of clubs, whereupon East cashed
the 10 Of spades, led small diamond
and declarer was set two tricks.
At every other table three no trump
was made, although in many instances
only one no trump had been bid. Only
DR.. Muhsom was brilliant enough to
throw away both his club honors in
order to unlock in the suit and create
an entry in his partners hand. The
best that the declarer could have done
against the defense of DR.. Muhsom was
to hold the set to one trick by not at
tempting to run the spade suit.
