THE INITIATIVE is YOURS

IF YOUR PARTNER has had a
onance to double the opponents
game contract and has not done so,
the decision must be made for the
side by you. If you are pretty sure
your side could not make its con-
tract, in case you over-bid the other
side, your problem is still not settled.
Do you think the enemy can make
their contract? If the answer is yes,
you still have a problem. You Of
course will not double them in that
event, but will consider only the
question Of a sacrifice. How many
points will it probably cost you? If
less than the value of the hostile
game, go ahead and sacrifice.

THREE BOOKS on medical sub
1ects, intended for the layman, have
recently come to my attention.
One is called SeIsible Dieting, by
Or. William Engel, and it begins:

that am related to your
Jolly, but how?' cried Victoria.

Include Vitumins
In Reducing Diet

"Steaks make beautiful legs and
shapely arms" "
"Starches and sugars keep fats
happy at their work."
"Cheese soothes the nerves."
"Celery builds the bones"
Eggs prevent brittle nails"
Another book is called OH, DOC
TOR! MY FEET! by DR.. Dudley j..
Morton. This contains what seems
to me some very good advice, which
is not entirely the same as that
found in other books on the feet,
especially the question of fallen
metatarsal arches.
"For many years it has been
thought that such an arch extends
across the foot between the first
front ends of the first and fifth long
bones of the feet" ;,.lfsTSfI
Breaks with Idea isYiljd
Doctor Morton breaks with this
idea and has a number of interesting
things to say about arch supports,
shoemen and shoes, which / will take
up in articles later.
The third book is HOW TO CON-
QUER CONSTIPATION, by DR..
J. F. Montague. Doctor Montague
has written number of books on
this subject.
One of the most sensible things
that he says is "Don't combine all
existing systems of diet into one
gigantic dietetic experiment on
yourself" And he also says Don't
combine the work or irritations of
the day with the pleasure Of the
meal"
He makes the rather remarkable
suggestion that overeating some
times causes constipation. .

 Recently noticed and ad in Q city paper. It read: WANTED by high school senior, through the summer. Daily or evening supervision of children. Would be willing to take charges for walks or to other destination and direct play, tell stories and take personal care, Please write xYz." BEST KIND
 OF OFFER
 That struck me as just about the most needed offer of assistance that any mother could have. To state that one wants a position as mothers helper" is too indefinite. But to explain that the applicant could do all the extras that a busy woman has no time for, is hitting the nail right on the head.
 Of course, mother may prefer to devote herself to the children, em- ploying another to take over the burden of the housework. But too many cannot afford the cost of a regular maid.
 The other way permits "stagger- ing" time, that is, arranging for tho play supervisor to come mornings, afternoons, evenings or every other day. The outlay might reasonably fall within the limitations of the

 life as she has on the screen.
 "There's the slave to mother hood" she says, "than which there is none duller. Why doesn't the woman who tells you the moment she meets you that her children "come first" realize that nobody wants to hear about them?"
 And there's the unimaginative woman who is housekeeper first, last, and out in company. When she goes with her husband to a house where there is good talk, all she knows afterward is what kind of draperies were in the living room, and approximately how much the dinner cost.
 FINDS CAREER
 WOMAN PATHETIC
 "The opposite extreme, the career woman whose mind works just like a mans is worse. And more pathetic For she is usually very intelligent woman, who has sense enough to realize that If she is to handle big | jobs her mind has to work like a mans, But after work she ought to be feminine if she has to trick it,"
 Miss Farrell hasn't the good word so many advisors have for the clinging vine.
 She's a pain in the neck,' she says.
 Miss Farrell is convinced that a man gets just as bored with a wife who plays one role over and over as an audience gets with an actress who keeps playing the same type roles.
 Her suggestion to prevent typ ing: Any woman who is wide awake and genuinely interested in all kinds of things will never be a type"

WOMAN,S REALM =
GlOrifing Yourself
By Alicia Hart
NEA Service staf Writer

Makeup looms importantly as an integral part of the ensemble. The smart woman now picks cosmetics to wear with a new dress as con- scientiously as she chooses hat, bag, gloves or any other accessory.
 She does not, for example, keep right on wearing pale cream foun- dalton, matching powder an d whatever lipstick happens to be handy. She wants to achieve a rosy, faintly glowing look this season, so she chooses new make up with this in mind.
 That is, unless she is going in for golden girl effects, in which case she'll wear no foundation, very it- tie powder and a splash of scarlet lipstick.
 When the skin is tanned to a warm, golden brown, the less makeup the better is good rule to follow. In fact for sports and ordinary daytime occasions, many a chic suntanned girl wears only lipstick. In Hollywood particularly, suntanned complexions are seldom powdered at all
 One proof that makeup now is considered an important part of an ensemble is the fact that producers of fashion shows usually have a cosmetics expert make up the mod- els The costumes 8 model is to wear are assigned to her and the makeup artist examines them care- fully before deciding what shades of makeup are advisable.
 MAKEUP HELPS
 DRAMATTZE GOWNS
 At a recent showing of two mil- lion dollars worth of precious jewels, fourteen evening dresses were espe- cially created to be worn to set of the jewels. In addition, @ famous cosmetics expert was called in to make up the models in such way that the clothes and the jewels would be dramatized even further.
 One spectacular jewel - dra- pery brooch, which consists of seven huge, pear-shaped dia- monds, surrounded by four smaller diamonds from which hang showers of even smaller ones-was shown on a dramatic black crepe dinner suit, relieved with no other color than cyclamen makeup.

 7 q. What is the best place to store canned foods?
 A. Store in a clean, cool, we'll , ventilated place. Shelves near fur naces and steam pipes may be too warm in the winter for safe storage. Food on shelves near outer walls should be carefully watched, as there is danger of freezing If glass jars are stored in well lighted place, the color of the contents may fade. In a humid atmosphere, mold may grow on the jars; that will not in- juro the food if the seal is tight, but the safest method is to store the jars in a well-ventilated dry place where no mold will grow.
 b. How may grass and foliage tains be removed from clothing? A. If material is washable, use hot water and soap as in ordinary laundering, rubbing the stain vigor- ously. Remaining traces may be bleached with Javelle water if the material is cotton or linen. or with potassium permanganate. Ether or wood or denatured alcohol. applied by sponging, is useful on fabrics that might be injured by laundering.

 A. It is usually caused by excess sive perspiration. the effects of too warm clothing. The rash is of fine red spots and usually comes out first on the neck or chest.
