The American Contract Bridge League is made up of units in the principal cities throughout the country. These units have been active in raising money through bridge for various war relief funds. At the summer session of the na- tional championships tournament, the League announced it's War Orphans Scholarships plan, on which all League units will be work ing for the next several years.
 pr. Louis Mark of Columbus, O., told me he hopes to present a $500 bond at the fall session of the na- tionals at Syracuse during the week of Nov. 30, for a scholarship to be awarded to the child of one of our service men.
 Dr. Mark likes tricky hands and sent me this one recently. He was the declarer (South) and ruffed the opening lead. He led a heart and West jumped up with the king. Back came a second spade, which Mark ruffed. Another heart lead went to the ace. and third spade was led, which Dr. Mark ruffed with the ace of trumps. Then South cashed the king. queen and jack of trumps, and led club to the king in his own hand. to cash the two hearts. At the end West was squeezed in spades and clubs. Dr.. Marks "game-saying" bid turned out to be a made doubled contract.

 Toilet kits should be carefully chosen. Any soldier can use an efficient kahaki kit of simple, strong construction. An officer at Q more or less permanent post, however, might like @ handsome .commodious case of fine leather, complete with satin-wood- backed clothes brush, Q mirror that stands on its own leather back, file and tweezer, and pocket for extra blades. GA package of extra blades is wisely tucked into any mans gift package).
 An officer at permanent post likely would welcome the fabric carrying case for his expensive caps khaki for the Army, blue for the Navy, very light. This matches a smart canvas bunk bag' that holds two uniforms without wrinkling-an essential for furloughs.
 FOOD IS FAVORED
 Gift boxes of extra-special food, especially candy, are available in most stores, and can be ranked with homemade cookies and candies as likely to be received with pleasure by post men.
 A Fifth Avenue store, looking for flrst-hand tips, wired the doz- en or more of its own staff who are in uniform now, asking what they and their comrades wanted. The store also assembled everything it could think of as possibilities, called in two men from each of the ser- vices asked for comment, and there after revised its stock considerably.
 The men approved, besides the generally popular gifts already men, tioned: pen and pencil sets, pictures, shoes shine kits in fiat twill en- velopes, single-pack playing cards.
 They ask for food, especially cook ies, cake and candy, and particular ly home made ones sent in a shoe box: folding pipes; small flashlights; and knives with just one large, strong blade. They said they did not want elaborate toilet sets or game sets, manicure sets, picture frames, writing cases.

 ThereIi be e good deal less skisng this winter = and that's all tlae more reason why Miss Lucky who gets on Q nearby slope should be prepared to make the most Of ie TOT health and beauty.

 Standing with feet wide apart, as if on skis, and with hands in front of you as they would be if you were carrying your poles, bend the knees slightly. Twist your body to the left, putting more weight on the left foot, and then turn to the right, shifing weight. Imagine you're wind ing downhili. your body like a screw in a piece of wood. Turning to the right forces the screw down into the wood, turning left pulls it out of the wood a bit. Your motions should be rhythmic.
 Now place hands lightly on the back of a chair. Keeping knees to- gether. bend them and lower body till you're squatting on your heels as you would do to prevent or breaA a fall. Do this deep knee-bend lt or 12 times.
 Those will Timber and stretch your legs. And here's one for con- ditioning the stomach muscles: lh flat on the floor with arms at side ankles together, and, without mov. ing shoulders, slowly raise leg until they are perpendicular N your body. Lower them just a slowly.
 This will prepare you for re versing your direction whei you're on skis, and will fiatteS fully.
 It will, of course, make you stomach muscles sore, but only fog the first day or so.

RUNNING EAR

ASNGNAGNu kSkAN
 For many years readers have been reporting the excellent results obtained from regular use of the following simple ear drops for chronic running ear:
 Boric Sometimes collad boracic) acid-l0 grains;
 Pure grain alcohol-enough to fill one-ounce vial.
 Warm the solution moderately by standing the vial in hot water for a while, and drop two or three drops in the affected ear each night and morning for many weeks or months.
 Formerly any one could obtain such a solution from the druggist without difficulty. Nowadays the druggist requires physicians pre- scription for the alcohol. I'm sor- ", but that's as far as I can go- perhaps you can wheedle out of your family doctor the necessary prescription.
 Please note I suggest use of the drops ONLY for chronic running ear. NOT for acute ear ache, acute inflammation or abscsess or gather ing in the ear.
 It is advisable in every case of chronic middle car trouble with a discharge from the ear to avoid plugging the ear canal with cotton. It is always better to keep the ear canal freely open for ventilation aand drainage. Only time any cot ton or other absorbent or plug or stopper or protection" should be used in the ear canal is when the physician specifically directs it and then it should be used only as long as the physician deems it necessary.
 Use of oil of any kind in the ear is generally unwise.
 By now surely every one knows that it is always dangerous to in- sert toothpick. hairpin or any other implement in the ear cana.-not merely dangerous to the eardrum but because in this way it is easy to infect the lining of the ear canal and produce a very painful infiam- nation or abscess there.
 If in any instance the ear wax accumulates in the ear canal in a mass sufficient to cause unpleasant noises. or temporary deafness when the wax plug swells on entrance of water. or even a hacking cough from irritation of branch of pneu- mogastric nerve in external ear canal, or dizziness. it is never safe to attempt removal of the hardened crumen by any other means than gentle swinging.

 New York-There are plenty Of good gifts for men and officers ot every stripe and station in the fight ing serviceS--plenty, too, of gifts keyed to a particular kind of a guy with particular kind of an assign ment,
 So distance needn't confuse the givcr. The trick in getting the just right object Is simply to keep in mind, more clearly than you would in peacetime, the kind of military life he's living, and the kind of a guy he is,
 It seems that early shoppers haven't ali been too all-flred good at that. People who have done a job of checking report that the men themselves have some suggestions to make, and the first one is: more suitable gifts, please, Next, more ef- ticient gifts, please, The point for the shopper is to look twice and make sure that the idea in the article is well-done enough for 1t to last under strenuous service condi- tions, Ask yourself; Would I give 'house-room' to this in flve-by- siX-foot kitchen--or on a steamer?'
