have shown West he had at least
six hearts and only four spades.
South's first rebid Of clubs showed
that his two suits were at least
Ave cards long, and the second re-
bid Of them showed that both
were at least six-carders. It
should have been clear that South
was void Of spades or hearts, pos
sibly both, but almost certainly
Of hearts, which North rebid.
Hence, the odds were heavy that
South would trump the heart A,
and have the X then set up in
dummy for a diamond discard
just what happened.
On bidding like South's, the
the most damaging lead usually Is
trump, to take out Of dummy
one which probably Is needed to
ruff a loser in the side suit. II
West had led club, South would
have been beaten, as he could
never have got rid Of all Of his
losing diamonds unless he was
able to discard one on the heart
K or else ruff two Of them. Both
Of those possibilities would have
been removed by leading q club
instead Of a heart.

Someone, Mr.. Slyncniski per-

small set of coils at one side of
it.
Mr.. Slyncniski was a born tin
kerer. Shielding his flashlight
with one hand, he advanced to
the cameralike arrang ment. He
twisted a knob here, a gadget
there. All at once, the coils gave
off tiny shower of blue sparks.
Light appeared on the movie
screen. Hastily Mr.. Slyncniski
sank into a chair. But he could
not relax. Then, suddenly he
thought of the BOOKCASE.
In the main, Mr.. Slyncniski
eschewed reading. An occasion
al dip into Daily Racing Form
was enough to satisfy his literary
cravings. But now time hung
upon his hands. Covering his
torch with one great paw SO
that only trickle of light
emerged, he selected a book at
random.
Without glancing at the title,
he opened it in the middle and
forthwith, laboriously, began to
read.

Hopes to Live to See

McCook, Nebr. (ILNS). - George
w. Norris, former Progressive Sena-

gress, hopes to live to see an Ameri-
can victory. On his 82nd birthday,
celebrated July II, Norris said:
II would like to live long enough
to see our brave Army victorious on
all the battlefronts in which it is now
engaged in the cause of human free
dom. To bring this about as speedily
as possible, | pray God for a united
front on behalf of our people.
Let us quit quarreling among our
selves and unite unanimously behind
our leaders, and | am sure if we do
this we will not only win a complete
victory but our hearts and souls will
be seasoned for an honorable and hon
est peace that will forever disarm our
enemies and eventually bring about a
world dominated by honesty and
friendship among all peoples on
earth"

cultural values will be only mock
cry.
The armed forces and the war fac
tories have trained thousands upon
thousands of mechanics, aviators,
scientists, production experts and
technicians in a hundred fields. What
is to become Of them after the war?
And when those now in uniform come
marching home, how will they fit into
useful occupations? Are the home
front workers to be replaced by re-
turning veterans, or will America de-
wise some method of employing both
groups?
These are questions which go to the
core of the real problems of the fu-
ture. They are questions which should
be considered now by all thinking
Americans.

WHAT'S COOKIN'

Make the most of fresh peaches this
year as they are costly due to war
difficulties in transportation and the
crop has not been too good. SO you'll
have to make a few peaches do the
work of many.
Delicious peach dessert that is easy
on the peaches is made by making
eight tart shells of very rich pastry.
Cover shells with sliced peaches to
which sugar OF corn syrup is added in
quantity enough to sweeten peaches.
Then fill shells with vanilla mousse,
made by whipping a small can of
evaporated milk which has been well
chilled. When milk is whipped stiff
add one beaten egg and one-half cup
white corn syrup and teaspoon of van
lila Pour into automatic refrigerator
and freeze This makes an elegant
company dessert.
Dried apricots are unrationed and
are excellent served with chops or
ham. Broil and baste with the meat.
Besides looking glamorous they lend a
delicious flavor.
If the kiddies rebel at drinking their
milk make them sodas, by adding /
cup of ginger ale, pinch salt and 2 or
8 spoons of ice cream to their glass of
milk. Serve in tall chilled glass.
Therell be no further trouble.
A package of cooked frozen limas
added to creamed diced hard cooked
eggs favored with minced onion and
served on toast squares make good
meat substitute.
A good stufing for pocket in shoul-
der of lamb is made of two cups Of
creamed corn, one cup bread crumbs,
one teaspoon celery salt, two tea
spoon each minced pepper and melted
butter
All pan fish are better when cooked
with skin off. The tough skin is likely
to impart muddy flavor. Soak fresh
water fish in salt water for an hour.
Dry before putting in skillet and use
only enough grease to keep fish from
burning. Season to taste. Don't turn
fish until underside is set with heat.
