Merchants
Price
Fixing Order

Henderson retail merchants met
this afternoon in the kiWanis hall to
discuss details Of the price ceiling
program ordered into effect at mid
night last night by the federal office
of price administration.
A survey OF stores this morning
gave evidence that all stores are
meeting the general requirements Of
the program. but revealed that many
OF the individual merchants are a
sea as to the a Of carrying out
details OF the order although they
are making every effort to obey botA
the letter and the spirit of the rul-
ing. Many 0. ne stores, II was SAID,
had marked down goods last week II

prices and others brought markings
into line today with the required
maXimums.
Shoppers would not find many
drastic reductions in prices, ii was
said, although federal economists
have expressed the opinion that the
fr5ezlng Of maximum prices at levels
of two months ago would result in a
general decrease OF approximately
| II per cent in the rising cost Of
living.
Department store officials said
that there had been 40 advances
since notice of the impending freez-
ing order was given and that there
had been a gradual reduction in all
lines to meet the required maxi

Instead, it's swell. In those spots
where silent film technique was

shrugs and leers were overem-

ways came to the rescue with
some rubbing remark that won a

first two tricks with top dia-

Knowing that West was void

carded his club loser and West
trumpcd. West then found the
right defense by leading a
trump, 10 prevent a heart ruff.
After winning with the king
OF spades, dummy cashed the ace
of clubs and led another for
South to ruff. 1t was disappoint-
ing to find the bad break, but
knowledge of the break now en-
abled Jacoby to claim the rest
of the tricks. He demonstrated
that, when he cashed all his
trumps, he would develop a dou.
bic squeeze.
When he led his last trump,
West would be compelled 10
hold the queen Of clubs, and
therefore could l.old only two
hearts. Dummy would then let
go the last c u b, saving two
hearts and q diamond.
In order to keep the diamond
ten, East likewise would have to
discard down to two hearts.
Then Jacoby would cash the ace

HighIiehts from
the Latest Books
BY JAMES E. HILBERT

The Russian mas TINS cnarac-
teristic-in life's difficult mo-
ments, in the years of trial, he
easily renounces all that he has
become accustomed to, that by
which he has lived day by day.
Behold, here was man-so-so;
suddenly it was demanded of
him to become hero, and he
is a hero. :"
So writes Alexei Tolstoy in
his chapter in THE Voice of
Fighting Russia" (Alliance: $3),
defining the Russian spirit. Luz
Glen Zarcharoff has gathered in
this volume the writings of such
authors and poets as Tolstoy, the
speeches of Stain, the on-the-
spot stories of war correspond
ents, the authentic experiences
of Red Army men and command
erS.
Fierce hatred of tn Nazis is
coupled with love oi their land
in the Russians grim determi-
nation to win a victory over
Germany. Perhaps this flaming
spirit more than anything else
is responsible for the success of
the Russians against seemingly
overwhelming odds.
The best chapters in Zachar-
offs book deal with battleline
experiences of the Red Army.
So many individual examples of
heroism and bravery in action
are reported that even the most
exciting adventures seem mat
ter-of-fact.
Complacency does not exist in
Russia, the writings compiled
in this volume would indicate.
Everyone, young and old, wom-
en- and children as well as men,
has enlisted to fight the Nazis.
The difference in the two ar
mics Is explained in q paragraph
dealing with friendship In COM
bat. 1.-THE Nazi soldier and Off
Ger represent two different
worlds which have nothing In
common, except fear Of each 9TH
er and mutual hatred. In the
Soviet Army the fighter and
commander are brothers in spir-
II, in theology. In love for their
great land OF freedom, brothers
in their tired of Fascism."

This year, in addition to that

Gin rummy makes q lively
and entertaining team game.
and is so played at many card
tables. Any convenient number
OF pairs may participate, so long
as the number on each side is
the same. Matches with from
two to five pairs per side have
been played, but the commonest
match Is between just two pairs.
To explain how such a match
Is played, let US call the four
players A, B, c and D. Players
A and B are in partnership, also
c and D. In the first round of
the match, A plays q regular
two-handed game of Gin Rum.
my against G. while B plays
against D. In the second round,
A plays with D and B with G.
Each round consists of q COM
plete game, not just one hand.
There is q little difference in
the scoring here. In the ordi-
nary two-handed contest, 1.-The
game is 100; that is. the game
ends after one player reaches or
passes 100 points, and the win
ner Is credited with the differ
ence of the total scores, plus a
bonus Of 100 points. In the four
handed contest, the game is 125,
but the game bonus remains 100.
During a game, both pairs
commence a hand at the same
time, that is, when the first pair
finishes the play of a hand, that
pair waits until the other pair
finishes before BEGINNING next
hand. It is necessary to wait be-
cause the scores made by the
two partners are combined and
60 as one item into the running
scores of the two sides. For ex-
ample, il A goes down and wins
Is points against c, and If D
goes down and wins 8 points
against B, the partnership ABB is
credited with S points for that
hand.
The players who finish play
first may then advise their part
ners, who are still playing. OF
course this privilege may not be
exercised by a player who has
seen an adverse hand.
A point to be noted is that q
player may not count out" as
he does in some two handed
games. For example, suppose
that ABB have total of 100
points. In the next hand, A and
D finish first, and A wins 8
points. His side does not there
by count out" and win the
game. Game can be won only
after the score from both
matches is taken into account.
Should B now lose by 5 points
to c, Alb wou d win only 4
points net and would remain q
point short of game.

Snake Venom Helps Cure
Epilepsy Disease Cases
SAL

Twelve to IA hundred physicians
in this country now are using snake
venom for treatment, DR.. Eugene
Maier, who has done much to bring
to the pubIc's attention the value Of
venom in treating diseases, de-
clareS:
1.-The use of venom is still in the
pioneering STAGE" the physician
says, ''but we think we are making
progress"
Venom is used in the treatment
Of epilepsy, arthritis and other dis
eases. 1t is now being used with
notable success at Chattanooche
with epileptic patients at the Florida
state hospital for the insane. Re-
markable thing about the treatment
is that the results are quick and a
cure is often effected within three or
four months.
After cure the epileptic does not
necessarily have to continue taking
the treatment which is given through
a hypodermic needle.
Some Of the venom used for
medicinal purposes comes from
Ross Aliens reptile institute at Sill
yer Springs, Fla.
1.-The first venom treatment" DR..
Maier said, utilized bee venom.
That was centuries ago. When I
began the work, l thought what
would be the use of starting out
