of Sunshine Is Donoerous

Because OF ricketts, this child had
lost his power Of walking at the age
Of 18 months.
The doctor gave the child cod
liver oil each day for two months.
At the end of that time the little
one was able to run around quite
freely. .
That case and others Ike 1t led
to widespread use of cod liver oil.
Though no one knew the reason, the
oil took the place Of sunshine In the
work Of bringing about strong,
healthy bones.
Cod liver Oil is IN use to this day,
but . great discovery has given the
human race . new and easier way
Of obtaining vitamin D. Tomorrow
We shall 60 into the story Of that
discovery.

Against six diamonds West made
the only embarrassing lead-name-
ly, a spade. The queen was played
from dummy. East covered and
South won with the ace. Declarer
was now faced with the choice of
two illnesses. If he took the trump
f1nesse and 1t proved successful he
would make a grand slam, as the
losing spade would be discarded on
dummy's club suit. On the other
hand, he might get rid of the spade
by successful heart finesse.
Pondering on which finesse to
take, South finally concluded that
there was one slight advantage in
adopting the heart play. There
was a chance that the diamond
king might be singleton. Declarer
therefore laid down the diamond
ace with the further intention of
taking the heart finesse If the king
did not drop. To his joy, the king
3ell and now no finesse was needed.

The taking Of cod liver oil seems
to have gone on in some parts Of
the Morse countries for hundreds Of
years. Being largely fisherfolk, the
Norsemen no doubt were simply
making use of the oil In goldfish
which they caught. Yet it did them
good and took away much Of the
bad effect Of not having enough
sunshine.

Choice of Plays

It is very seldom that a declarer
will be faced with the choice Of two
plays, each of which offers exactly
an even chance for success. Almost
always one play will have some
slight advantage in it's favor. The
bidding may have given a clue, or,
as was the case in today's hand, it
may simply be question of pure
mathematics.

1. An air force stronger than

 bombers; bombers to wreck ar-
 morcd columns; transports move
 troops by air.
 2. Defense in great depth, pro-
 tecting sensitive points far back, and evacuating civilians all along

 3. Troops and leaders who know
 their jobs and won't leave unde-
 str0yed bridges across strategic

 LAST WAR ISN'T
 THIS WAR
 The allied air weakness is due to democracy's delays, politics, labor troubles, slowness of standardization and mass production.
 The rest looks like inefficiency or worse, where 1t was least expected, in the French army.
 What can be done?
 In that "last war" for which the allies seem to have prepared, the answer would have been easy:
 Cut that long thin German neck stretching to Abbeville, by counter attack from forth and south.
 But in the last war there would have been no such neck, and in this war there IS. because of the very factors that make cutting 1t 50 difii- cult-air power and mechanization.
 Tn 1914 you had to protect your Hanks on the ground. Today you protect them from the air, that is If you have such air superiority as the Germans have. That German air power in northern Belgium today threatens the allied troops, including some of the best British soldiers with severance from the channel supply ports and Britain itself. Sub- marines add to the menace.
 The triple threat of German air power, sea power and ma1 power endanger Britain with invasion to- day, force her to hold back planes she needs badly at the front.
 To the south the French main body is counter attacking northward its eastern flank protected thus far by the Magirot Line. But that fab- ulous girdle no longer seems invul- nerable to the Nazi weapons that reduced the strong Belgian forts and have already reduced one Maginot Line casemate. Finally, the whole Maginot Line maybe turned by at- tack-for there is Italy to consider, with great air power, too.
 If the allies save themselves and their democracy, 1t can be only by miracles of effort, valor and sacri- fice-only miracles.
