Mrs. Helen Pendleton Rockwell of
Warren, Pa, who is member OF
the Leagues executive committee,
has just returned from California.
She brought a nice hand back from
the coast for me.
Mrs. Rockwell uses the Warren
slam convention, a bid of four no
trump, asking partner to show aces
and kings. Aces count two points
and kings one. A response of five
diamonds would show two points;
five hearts shows three points, and
the bid is stepped up one for each
additional point. Therefore, five no.
trump shows a count of five. AS
this accounted for all of the aces
and kings. East's response of seven
no-trump was quite correct.
The opening lead of the three Of
diamonds was won in dummy with
the queen, and when South showed
out, Mrs. Rockell (West) returned
to her hand by playing small club.
Now the diamond finesse was sue
cessfully taken, and the declarer
ran off five diamond tricks. South
discarded five spades on the five
diamonds.
Mrs. Rockwell then cashed her
three top spade tricks and South

War Conditions Breed Malaria
Among Soldiers And Civilians

the mosquito should be eliminated
by draining stagnant pools, by COW
ering others with oil and kerosene.
Access to man by the mosquito can
be prevented by the liberal use OF
sprays shown to be effective against
mosquitoes, and by the screening of
buildings and the use of bed nets
The mosquito is inactive during the
day, and precautions must be estab-
lished from dusk to daylight only.
Those who must be about at night
should wear such clothing, head.
nets and gloves that the mosquito
cannot reach the skin. Men infected
with malaria should be treated and
isolated from the mosquito, as in
fected people are dangerous to their
neighbors.
No successful vaccine exists for
malaria. The recognized treatment
is quinine, and the sources of this
drug are now in the hands of the
enemy. Fortunately, there are two
synthetic drugs, atabrine and plas-
machin, which are nearly as salts
factory as quinine.
The army is doing an extraor-
binary job in protecting itself
against this disease, which has al
ready decided many battles and
even the fate of nations. The civilian
population has access to the same
techniques if it will spend the time
and money.

Now that corn meal is being en-
riched with the vitamin B COM
pick, there's a nutritious reason
too for serving it as substantial
breakfast dish. But make your corn
bread of bacon drippings, chicken
fat or cracklings to save our ma
tional fat supply and your own red
points and money.
The Bureau of Human Nutrition
and Home Economics has just is
sued a pamphlet called Fats in
Wartime Meals" It's an impor-
tant document, especially so in
homes where hot breads and
homemade pies and cakes are
customary Here are two fat
saving recipes good for substan-
tial and easy to eat breakfast.
Cracking Corn Bread
Two cups corn meal, IL cup
sifted flour, tablespoons baking
powder, Q teaspoons salt, l egg,
beaten, cups milk, l cup crack
lings.
Sift together the dry ingredi-
ents, add milk, to which beaten
egg has been added, and mix we'll.
Stir in the cracklings cut into
small pieces or ground through a
food chopper. (Cracklings are the
crisp brown pieces left after fat is
rendered) Pour the mixture into
a creased pan and bake in hot
oven (425 degree F) 80 to 40 min
utes or until well Drowned. Serve
piping hot. If you use sour milk In
the above recipe, add teaspoon of

sionally, in year of increased pre-
cipitation such as this one, it ex-
tends well up into the temperate
zones.
Malaria is an acute infectious dis
ease, caused by the parasite known
as plasmodium, and conveyed to
many by the bite of certain mosqui-
toes who are infected with the para
site. The disease in man is charac-
terized by intermittent chills and
fever. 1t tends to become chronic and
occurrences are frequent. Anemia,
exhaustion and enlargement of the
spleen are usually associated with
it. Although there are three distinct
types of parasite and they produce
somewhat varying symptoms, the
episodes of chill and fever are re-
markedly constant.
FROM MOSQUITO TO MAN
The malarial parasite undergoes
two phases of development, one in
man and the other in the mosquito.
When the parasite is introduced into
the blood of man by the mosquito, it
attaches itself to the red cell of the
blood and, after a few days, enters
the cell and begins to multiply.
Finally, the red cell ruptures and
discharges the small daughter para
sites, which again attach themselves
to other red blood cells, where the
process is repeated. The release of
the parasites from the red cells re-
cedes the paroXysm of chill and
fever.
The second phase begins when
the female mosquito feeds on an
infected man and ingests the para
site. The parasites then reproduce
in the stomach wall of the mos
quito, and the offspring make their
way to the insects salivary gland,
where they remain until the mos
quito bites a susceptible human be-
ing, when the whole process repeats
itself.
This extremely complicated and
elaborate course of development Of
fers numerous points of attack on
the disease. The breeding places of

the panty and for the beautifully
figure-forming bra. Girls with

Other attractive models of this
scanty style utilize rayon shark

FOR nearly 1000 years Bril-
p tain's famous Hadrian's Wall
the huge 73-mile stone ram
part that was built by the
Romans for protection against
the fierce Picts and Scots has
successfully withstood the raw
ages of wind, rain and time.
Many parts of the nine-foot
thick wall are as solid now as
the day when Emperor Publius
Aelius Hadrianus ordered the
gigantic breastWork thrown
across Northern England TO make
Roman Britain safe from attack.
Although it is estimated that
this weather-beaten monument
OF one of the most romantic
epochs in English history can
withstand the elements for hun
dreds of years to come the
ancient battlement today is faced
with possible ruin.
Recent quarrying operations
alongside OF the stone bulwark
has caused some 100 yards of the
wall TO tumble down. The ex-
cavations, which are continuing,
threaten to cause further cave

is happening to the old stone
wall Protest committees have
been organized and newspapers,
in sharply-worded editorials. have

Gals.
Although there is a British law
that protects Hadrian's Wall be-
cause it is an officially desig-
mated national monument, the
privately-owned land beside it is
not part of the monument, and
there is apparently no law to
keep quarrymen from working
right up TO the wall.

along a ridge of cliffs under

basalt rock of a greenish black
color that is used for road-mak-
ing and building.
Joseph Swarbrick. a Manches-
ter architect, who recently Wis
tied the Burnhead area. where
the quarrying has been going on,
reported that enough damage
already has been done ito make
it almost impossible for anyone
now to visualize the line of the
wall"
At present, the quarrying oper-
atoms are moving in the direc-
tion of Households. where some
of the better-preserved sections
of the old Roman battlement
stand.
Distraught members of the
Newcastle Society of Antiquar-
les who have spent much time
and labor in unearthing and
preserving the old stone wall,
are trying to stop further dig
ging in an easterly direction.
Thirteen years ago the govern
ment called out a temporary
military guard and stationed it
along the wall when it was dis
covered that stone was being
taken from sections of the ram
part for use in building cottages
Upset Britishers now want the
government to take equally dras-
tic action to protect the wall
from being undermined and to
save it from any change in it's
interesting and historic aspect
Whether the officials can find
legal grounds on which to stop
the quarrying remains to be seen.
Along Hadrian's Wall are the
crumbling ruins of many turrets
at intervals of a mile, and more
than 500 watch towers.
1t was under orders of En-
peror Hadrianus that julius Agri-
cola built the great protective
wall in 122 A. d. after he had
led Roman arms as far north as
possible. The reproduced paint
