UNCLE RAYS CORNER
Answer TO Yesterdays Puzzle

Four hundred and five years ago
q French leader saw an Indian vii
lage at the foot of a bluff along
side the st. Lawrence River. The
Frenchman was Jacques Cartier,
and the village was known as
Stadacoma.
1t is not likely that Cartier
dreamed far enough into the future
to see a large and famous city rise
around the bluff. Yet that is what
happened. The city of Quebec
stands there today.
At height of $40 feet above river
level is fort called the Citadel.
1t has 40 acres of parade grounds
and Is fitted with powerful cannon
which command the st. Lawrence.
The Citadel helped make Quebec
one of the most strongly defended
parts of the British Empire.
The first white settlers at Quebec
were French. They arrived in the
year 1908, only one year after John
Smith and other Englishmen set
tied at jamestown.
The French were first to start
colonies in Canada, but the British
had claims to the northern part
of the continent. The claims dated
back to the voyages of John and
Sebastian Cabot, who did their work
soon after Columbus crossed the
Atlantic.

planned secret way to field be-
hind it.
On night when the moon was
not shining British troops used the
dried-up bed of a small stream as
a pathway up a steep slope. Before
dawn a force of $500 men reached
the Plains of Abraham and were
ready for battle. That paved the
way for the capture of Quebec five
days later.
In the battle of Quebec both
sides lost their leaders. Gen. Wolfe
and Gen. Montcalm died before the
city was captured. A monument
has been placed on the fields of
Abraham and it honors the mem
ory of the two generals. 1t is the
only monument I know which hon
ors two generals who died while
fighting against each other.
Quebec today is the capital of the
Canadian province of the same
name. The people of the city are
mainly of French descent. About
nineEtenths of them speak French.

West opened the king of clubs,
holding the trick After some
thought, he shifted to the king of
diamonds, and was allowed to hold
that trick, too. He then went back
to the clubs, South ruffing.
Declarer had to find some way
to get the trumpS out but still ruff
two diamonds in the dummy. The
first step was to cash the spade
ace, lead to the spade queen and
return a low trump from the dunn
my. The appearance of East's queen
was a welcome surprise to South,
who had feared to find both honors
in the West hand.
He took his trump ace without
showing his surprise, however, for
that would have been fatal. The
next step was to lead the ten of
hearts. The idea, of course, was to
coax West to duck in the hope that
East could win the trick with the
jack. And West very unwisely de-
cided to play his low trump.
The rest was easy. South cashed
the ace of diamonds and ruffed a
diamond in dummy. A diamond
went off on dummy's spade king,
and South ruffed a club in his own
hand, followed by diamond ruff in
the dummy. West could make only
his king of trumps. But note that
If West had put up his king on the
second trump lead South would have
been defeated. To draw the last
trump would allow dummy to ruff
only one diamond and to leave the
trump in the West hand would allow
that player to ruff the third round
OF diamonds.
