In these days of tension, a little
planning ahead will help the wise
parent to keep the child's everyday
living as happy and normal as pos
sible.
A child's play life is a serious busi-
ness, and is treated as such by Char
lotte G. Garrison and Emma D.
Sheehey in their new book, "At
Home With Children" They tell
how younger children play and give
suggestions for play and playthings
indoors and outdoors. They also
discuss materials, tools and things
to make, books. stories, music, pic
lures and science, and end with a
chapter on holidays, parties and ex-
cursions.
Toys In Wartime" issued by the
Children's Bureau, contains excellent
ideas for parents on making suitable
toys from noncritical materials.
For the older child, puppets pro-
vide an exciting and absorbing
answer to the question, What shall
I do?" Puppets can dance and talk
and sing; they are unique and
talented dolls of real character, de-
pendent upon the child not only for
their existence and appearance, but
for their r havior. They can be
made ard operated at little expense,
and with much pleasure.

The Federal Bridge League aban-
doned Its scheduled experimental
round robin game last Tuesday
night and returned to the customary
pair match where the movement is
simpler and much easier for the
director to record. The winners,
North and South, were DR.. and Mrs.
A. j. Stelnberg, first; R. H. Higgins
and George Stone, second, and DR..
and Mrs. j. B. Gregg Gusts, third;
East and West, Mrs. James Lazard
and DR.. N. J. McHugh, first; George
Kathan and F. w. Thomas, second,
and M. Kurtz and DR.. N. Jassny,
third. s.
In the leagues monthly master
point game, the winners were Mr..
and Mrs. Tom Hamlin, with a score
of 3051a. DR.. and Mrs. A. j. Stein
berg were the runnersup, with
3021a. Representative John Kunkel
and G. B. Austin were third, with
278, and Gene Hermann and Mrs.
Irene Surguy were fourth, with
2701a.
Another change in the summer
program is announced for next
Tuesday night. Instead OF the So
called beginners game where an old
line duplicate player is assigned a
partner VINO has had no experience
in this form OF the game, there Will
be return to the regular open pair
contest IN which those who are not
members OF the league Will be per-
mitted to take part. =
:. seeder asks what the require
ments are for a shutout bid.
Much depends on the state Of
vulnerability. The best players con-
tend that, in order to make a shut
out bid, the bidder must surely be
able to win enough tricks to avoid
being set more than 500 points.
That is, to make a call of four, the
lAlder must be able to win at least
eight tricks If he is vulnerable and
at least seven tricks If he is not vull-
nerable. What determines the adj
visibility of shutout bid is not the
amount of the risk, but the degree
of the risk. To be set two when vul-
nerable means loss of 500 points,
and a set of three when not vulnera-
BILE is a loss of the same amount.
To make a shutout bid that would
cause a greater loss. is not good
bridge.
One expert says: "A bid that goes
down 1,l00 points one time In five,
but gains 500 points each of the
four other times Is q good bid"

Then GiIded Dust
By John Shirley Hurst
(BobbS-Merrill)

fBobbS- MerrtH.)
For Is years, Shirley Hurst, Wash
ington newspaperman, has dreamed
of the day when he would have
novel accepted afor publication.
Every newspaperman has that
dream. And now, in Shirley Hurst's
case, it has come true.
Then Gilded Dust" may or may
not become a best-seller, but If it
is a foretaste of similar novels by
Mr.. Hurst, then he Is well on his
way to the top. Here he has woven
into 279 pages a story of flyer of
fortune turned sentimentalist which,
for sheer entertainment and sus-
pense, is one Of the better war
novels.
Alan Hunter is the hero of this
tale Of flying with the Chinese in
their first days of battle against the
Japs. His father had died as a re-
suit of a girls greed, and he had de-
veloped dislike for women. He
loved the carefree life that came
with money, and it was this love
and not that of woman-that
urged him on. Glory didn't matter.
Nor did humanity. After all, China S
war was not his war.
Then Alan fell in love with Chris
tine. From her he learned that
bombing and machine cunning can
bring aches and pains. She had an
entirely different slant from his. AS
time went on. and they became more
attached to each other, Alan trans
formed into a different person, but
neither he nor Christine realized it.
How he learned that anybody s
war was not just another way of
making money, and how he came to
realize that there are greater things
in life than mere love of flying, OF
woman and of money, combine to
place the author on the future list
OF readers who read for pleasure.
Mr.. Hurst already has finished his
second novel-one about Russia and
her fight against Hitler-and 1t will
be awaited with interest by those
who have enjoyed Then Gilded
Dust" If 1t is as sparkling and as
crisp as his first 1t will be well worth
waiting for. GEORGE CLARK.

By Harold L. Ickes, Petroleum
Administrator for War.

By Harold L. Ickes, Petroleum
Administrator for War.
(KnoptJ
Mr.. Ickes has crowded into these
159 pages many startling facts about
oils role In global warfare. The Al
lied Nations will defeat the Axis be-
cause, over the longest sustained
period, they can throw the most oil
into the fray, he declares. And, hay-
ing taken that stand, he urges
America calmly to assess these facts:
Hitler has less demands for Oil.
: We have consumed greater por-
tion Of our total reserves than have
other oil-producing countries, and
may have to yield our position as
No. oil producer of the world.
We are burning oil faster than we
produce 1t, and new discoveries are
not keeping pace with production.
Even with all the pipelines work.
ing "a hours a day, seven days a
week, we are mot going to be able
materially to remove restrictions on
our civilian driving"
Eventually, oil will have to be I'M
ported or distilled from oil sfale or
coal.
Our basic problem stems from the
withdrawal for military service OF
tankers which normally supplied the
East Coast and Pacific Northwest.
Mr.. Ickes, from his vantage point,
tells how Oil must see. the war
through. at will be little short of
metaphysical achievement" he
writes, Ito fuel the 1876 900 Ameri-
can bombers and fighting planes we
expect to have in the air before
'finis' Is written to the war; the 18
million tons Of merchant ships that
we have been promising ourselves;
the 10000 tanks that will one day
soon be blazing away at the enemy,
not to mention the hundreds OF
thousands of trucks and other We
hicles that carry supplies to the
front. We will still have our Navy
to supply: we will still have to keep
our Allies stocked; we will still have
to feed the automobile tanks of our
defense workers, and, within reason,
meet the essential needs of our ci-
william populations"
Is Mr.. Ickes downhearted? No
he boldly afflrms that "for all its
enormity, the job Is going to be
done simply because 1t has to be
done-and a better reason than
that I wouldn't be- able TO give"
"Fightin' Oil' Is welcome addition
to any library.

Mr. Woody of Warburton, N. j., who

is the story of plump, middle-aged
businessman and a lovely female

which the public has attained with
the theme through the Topper books

that no more description is neces-

To Exhibition.

President Roosevelt has lent his
50-inch globe, which ordinarily
stands behind the desk in his study
at the White House. to an exhibition
at the Museum of Modern Art, New
York City, until mid-July. The
show, entitled "Airways to Peace"
includes more than so ancient and
modern maps and globes, some OF
which are works of art.
The 50-inch globe, given to the
President by the United States Army

many respects. To mention but two,
it is the largest of its kind in the

his own. In 1919 he was Dean
Of the Society of st. Luke. His
work has sometimes been thought

WHILE the trend of fashion

seems 10 be a growing debate
over just what is a suit.

customer are getting into
state OF injured frenzy over il.

partment tells her she will find

sold, each part priced separately,
and these, too, are called suits.
Every suit department carries
tailored suits, but the different
connections known as suits run
TO various extremes.
For instance, there is the
morning and business suit of
English tweed with matching
topper; the general-wear wool
dressmaker suit of a separate
skirt and softly tailored peplum.
cardigan or weskit top; the COM
blnation suit of CelaneSe MORE
and wool; and other similar soft
suits Call of which have Sepa-

with blouses instead OF their

In the category of afternoon
suits, which are frankly trimmed
or typed, there is greater lee
