UNCLE RAYS CORNER

While I was in Ceylon and Singa-
pore. it was the middle of winter.
Yet flowers were in bloom, and al
most all the trees and bushes had
their leaves.
In the torrid zone, trees of most
kinds do not lose their green color.
They keep it the year around.
Even in the temperate zone. some
trees keep their leaves. Certain
Southern parts of the United States
have palms and other tropical trees
with green robes through the year.
Trees in other sections of the
temperate zones lose their leaves
every winter. except for one class
the evergreens.
The main evergreen trees are frs.
cedars, pines and hemlocks. We
often speak of their leaves as
needles" Yet the needles are
leaves of sort.
The same needles. or leaves, do
not stay on an evergreen all through
its life. They fall off, but others
are there to take their place right
away.
Among the evergreens are the
famous "cedars of Lebanon" The
Bible speaks of them by that name
Some of them grow about the Leb-
anon Mountains of Syria. Trees OF
the same kind also grow in Palestine

West opened the Jack OF hearts,
dummy winning with the king. A
low trump was returned from
dummy, East playing low and South
winning with the jack. South cashed
the spade queen and led another
trump. and this time East took the
ace and returned his last trump.
Dummy won with the queen of dia-
monds and cashed the two top
spades and the heart ace. But this
still left South with two clubs and
when the club flneSse lost South was
set.
1t shouldn't be hard to see the
crime in this hand. Decide for your
self what 1t was before you read on.
South. Of course, was the criminal
and his crime consisted in leading
a second round OF trumps. He could
count on making three spades. two
hearts. Ave trumps and one club
a total of only IL tricks. That could
be increased to IL tricks if he ruf1ed
a club in dummy, since that would
give him a sixth trump trick.
It was all right to lead the first
round of trumps. But then, to be
safe. South should have cashed the
spade queen and club ace, ruffed a
club, discarded two clubs on dunn
my's two aces, ruffed low heart
and then ruffed the last club with
dummv's queen Of diamonds. Even
cashing a third round Of spades
would have been safe. but South
didn't have to take that risk.

that its existence was secure"
Only a short time after publica-
ton OF the note air raid sirens
sounded in the Finnish capital and
residents were sent hurrylng 10
underground shelters. where they
remained for a half hour.
Finland. the Helsinki government
advised the United States. does not
want to continue the fight against
Russia any longer than her vital Sc
curlty demands. but she cannot eX-
pose herself to future peril by arti-
fcially interrupting military opera
tions before the objective is wholly
realized.
The note said the defensive nature
of the struggle was not altered by
the Finnish Army's effort to make
harmless and man the enemy'S at
tack bases beyond the 1899 borders -
It said that if Finland had had
sufficient strength during the 1889
40 winter war she would have done
the same and surely nobody would
have doubted the justice of the
Finnish operations.
Finland, since gong to war against
Russia last June 26, has regained
substantially all the territory she
was forced to concede to Russia after
the 1939-40 winter war but the gov
ernment said that vital areas still
were in Russian hands.
These include. the note said, the
Fisher Peninsula. whose guns con-
troll Finland's only ocean port. Pet
samo in the far north. outer islands
in the Gulf of Finland and, above
all. the Hanko Peninsula at the
southwestern tip of Finland.
Hanko controls shipping in the
Gulf of Finland and the government
declared that the Russians still
make air raids on the cities and
civilian population of South Fin
land" from that point.
The note further explained the
Finnish occupation of Eastern Ka-
relia by asserting that the majority
of the population there was Finn
iSh.
tIn Berlin the German news
agency D.ND. reported that the
note said no guarantees for a
new peace had been given Fin
land and the Finnish government
cannot be of the opinion that
Finnish armed forces could in any
way threaten United States Sc
curity."

hope that even small nations had
the right to live and the right to
defense, and concluded that the
