with the deuce of clubs. East won
the second trick with the club nine
and led the club ace, upon which
South went into a brief huddle.
1t was quite apparent that West
was out of clubs. South could gain
nothing by discarding, for, besides
card, South did not relish the pros
pect of a fourth club lead by East.
The only possible course was a high
ruff in the hope that West would
be unable to overruff. So South
ruffed with the jack, and was well
pleased to find that West had to
discard.
At this stage, South had lost two
tricks and was sure sooner or later
to lose the spade ace. His contract
therefore depended on losing no
trump trick. With the jack of hearts
already played, there was no longer
a chance to finesse in trumps The
only chance was a two-two break of
the outstanding four trumps, plus
one other slim possibility.

UNCLE RAYS CORNER-Mexcun SuIumunders Fail to Grow

In lakes around Mexico City there
are salamanders which have lost
the power to grow up. They reach
a certain stage as kind of tadpole
and keep their gills all through life.
A Mexican salamander of that
kind is called an "aXolotl." The
name is Spanish and means servant
of the water"
An axolotl is really servant
of the water" If it is taken sud-
denly to a dry place and left there
it will die.
On the other hand, tests have
shown that an axolotl may have
the power to grow up when taken
elsewhere. Several of the animals
were transported to Europe and
were supplied with water and food
in the Paris Zoo. That was in 1854.
Several years later members of
brood of the great-grandchildren
lost their tails and took on the
form of common salamanders.

There is an animal which is some
ming like a fish, something like
a frog and something like lizard.
1t is known as the "Salamander.
Stories about salamanders grew
NO in Europe in ancient times. Twas
said they could live in the midst
of fire. Pieces of asbestos were
found and it was fancied that they
were skins of dead salamanders.
There was even a statement that
a salamander tossed in a fire would
put the fire out!
One olden sCientiSt-a Roman
named Pliny-made a test. He tells
as he threw a Salamander in fire
and was amazed to find that the
animal was burned to ashes.
Pliny wrote down an account of
what he did, but most persons did
not read his words. For centuries
the queer stories were believed
widely.
There is one fact which does a
nttle to explain such ideas. There
are salamanders which can send
out a milk-colored liquid from the
pores in their skin. This liquid
makes the skin wet and would guard
the animal for a second or two
while it was passing through fire.
A young salamander is very much
Ike a young tadpole, or polliwog.
1t has gills but no legs. Later two
legs appear at the front and then
two more legs come into view be-
hind.
