UNCLE RAYS CORNER

Sea water has been studied with
great care, and we know the things
which are to be found in it. These
include magnesium sulphate and
calcium sulphate, also iodine and
salt
Salt is the chief thing which can
be taken from sea water. 1t has
been figured that one cubic mile
of water in the Atlantic Ocean con-
tains 128284,0O0 tons of common
salt!
Think OF how many billions and
trillions of tons of salt there are
in the oceans of the world! People
need a certain amount Of salt for
good health, but we should never
worry about using it all up. One
small bay of the ocean has enough
salt to last the human race for
thousands of years.
People like to battle in ocean water
chiefly because it contains salt. In
some places, far from the coast, salt
and various chemicals found in
ocean water have been added to
swimming pools. Such pools are
excellent for swimming.
1t would seem simple thing to
provide home made" ocean water
for ocean fish in an aquarium. We
might suppose all that need be done
Is to put fresh water in the tanks
and add the salt and chemicals

Answer to Yesterdays Puzzle
SEQ Fish and Plants Need Ocean

The real ocean water should be
about one-tenth of all the water
that goes into the tank. Inside of
a week, all the water in the tank
will be "alive." Salt water fish
can live in it and keep their good
health.
Certain plants, as well. as fish,
will live only in ocean water.
am thinking of many kinds of sea-
weed which grow in salt waters of
the world.
Water plants of a number of kinds
are found in lakes and rivers, and
often we call them "seaweeds." Yet
the ocean is the place where true
seaweeds grow.
Among the scores of kinds of
ocean SeaWeedS, there are wing
weeds. deep sea tangle. Irish moss,
sea lettuce, oarweeds and seagrass.
Some parts of the ocean are thick
with the common brown seaweed."

West led three rounds OF spades
and my husband ruffed the third.
Then he led the ten of clubs to dunn
my's king and led the eight of
hearts for a fineS5e. West held off,
so the queen of hearts was led
next. When East discarded. South
put up the ace of hearts, since the
fnesse couldn't succeed. West took
the next heart and led a fourth
spade. That forced out the last
trump from the South hand, so
West made his last trump and the
remaining spade.
Was there anything wrong with
this line of play?"
AS long as you assure us that we
won't start any trouble, We'll agree
with your opponent. The hand
should have been made. The play
was perfect up to the second round
Of trump. At that point, South
should have taken a second f1nesse
instead OF putting up the ace
If West took his king, dummy
would still have trump to take
care of a fourth round of spades.
And if West still refused to win,
South could then cash the trump
ace and run the minor suits until
West got ready to take the high
trump. The important thing was
to preserve control Of trumps.
