This tournament consists of the 36 selected top-ranking players of the country.
 Anticipating a cross-ruff, West opened the jack of spades. While his inference was wrong, his lead was a killer. Dummy played low and L. D. Boone of Grenada, Miss, sitting East, set the stage for a swindle by playing the queen. South won with the ace.
 Now the scientific mind of the expert goes to work. He has to figure out whether West originally held the ack-ten-seven of trumps clarer played a small trump and or just the jack-seven. The de- finessed dummy's nine-spot. Boone won with the ten and the apparent cold contract went down one trick.

c. I have read that pineapple juice, poured over meat, will tender ize 1t. Will the canned juice be suitable to use for this purpose?
 A. No. The enzyme which acts on the tissues of the meat has already been destroyed in processing, Raw pineapple juice contains an active enzyIne, bromelin, and small quan- tity of the juice should be spread over the less tender cuts of meat before cooking. Puncture the meat with a fork to let the juice flow in, and cook 1t for the first few minutes at . very low heat, as the enzyme is gradually destroyed by heat.
 e. I'm just learning to cook and must follow recipes very carefully. So many recipes say "salt or season to taste,' and I never know how much salt or seasoning to use. Are there some general rules for the use of salt in seasoning various foods?

Lesson In Brief
BY REV. b. A. MEEKS

Subject: ''The Meaning Of
Church Membership"
Bible Passages: Acts 2:37-47;;
Alb; I Corinthians 12:12-31; Co.
loSsians 3:1-17.
Golden Text: "Now we are the
body of Christ, and members in
particular" l Corinthians 1927.
This is a very important and
timely subject. Church member
ship has lost a great deal of its
meaning and significance. There
was time when church member
ship was highly valued and
sought after. Some Of our mis-
sionaries returning from their
fields in foreign lands marvel at
the ease with which church men,
bership is obtained here in the
home church. In heather coun-
tries those seeking church men,
bership are placed on probation
until their manner of life has
proven their love for Jesus Christ
and for the church. Many of these
missionaries feel that the home
church has so lowered the STAN
dard and made church member
ship so easy that it has lost its
significance and no longer distin-
cuisines an individual from the
world. It is certainly true that the
distinction between the church
member and those out of the
church is not as clearly marked
as it ought to be. If the Church
is to fulfill her mission in the
world she must maintain a high
and lofty standard of living.
One of the leading protestant
denominations is instructed to ask
the following questions of each
person when he appears before
the Church to be received into
membership: Cd Do you acknow-
ledge yourself to be a sinner in
the sight of God. justly deserving
his displeasure, and without hope
save in his sovereign mercy? (2)
Do you believe in the Lord Jesus
Christ as the Son of God, and
Savior of sinners, and do you re-
ceive and rest upon him alone for
salvation as he is offered in the
Gospel? (3) Do you now resolve
and promise, in humble reliance
upon the grace of the Holy Spirit,
that you will endeavor to live as
becometh the followers of Christ?
(4) Do you promise to support the
Church in it's worship and work
to the best of your ability? 90 Do
you submit pourself to the gov
eminent and discipline of the
Church, and promise to study its
purity and peace?
Church membership means "a
boVe all that one has really and
truly accepted the Lord Jesus
Christ as his personal Saviour;
that he has been adopted into the
family of God and given the right
to all the privileges of sons and
daughters of the Most High.
Church membership means that
one has acknowledged himself to
be a sinner in the sight of God,
and having seen sin in its true
light turns from it unto Christ
with purpose of and endeavor
after new obediance. To accept
membership in the Church is to
proclaim to the world that one is
done with sin.
Church membership proclaims
to the world that one has chosen
