Uncle Rays Corner

Sunlight goes down into the ocean
to q depth Of almost quarter of
mile. A person can see through
the water fairly well at depth Of
100 feet, but the farther down he
goes the more dim the light.
At length q depth is reached
where no light comes from the sun.
The water is as dark as black ink !!
Some fish travel up and down a
great deal, from the surface Of the
sea to a depth of more than 500
feet. Other fish spend almost all
their time at deep levels
Many fish which live at the lower
levels of light have larger eyes. The
purpose of these is to take in as
much light as possible through their
eyes, thus making up for the dim
world in which they live.
Certain fish live far down in the
region of inky darkness. Some of
these glow in the dark and in a
sense are electric Lighted" BY
means of their lights, they are able
to tell one another apart.
Other ocean fish, at depths OF
more than a quarter of mile, have
no power of sight. They are blind
and must use their sense of touch
to find their food.
Besides the blind ocean fish, we
have fresh water fish without power
of sight. These are found in under
ground rivers, chiefly in the caves
of Africa, North America and South
America.
The most famous blind fish are
those in Mammoth Cave. They are
OF small size, the largest being only
4 or inches long.
The blind fish of Mammoth Cave
have marks where the eyes should
be, but have lost their power of
seeing. In the long centuries spent
in underground streams, the fish

Winning Contract
By THE FOUR ACES.
Bridqe SwindIes-No. 773


1t is always hesitantly that we
report psychic bid as an example
OF successful swindle. The psychic
bidder takes a chance; If he gets
away with 1t he is hero and If the
opponents catch him he Is a bum.
But when psychic bid is made,
there is no doubt but that it is
more artistic when it is repeated,
and that is the noteworthy feature
of the psychic which worked in to-

West dealer.
North-South vulnerable.
Evening star., 1943-11-26

South's three-club bid is the type
Of psychic which has the best
chance to succeed. 1t is a minor
suit, 50 partner is unlikely to raise
1t; and If partner does raise it,
South has such good support for
his partners heart suit that he can
always safely return to hearts.
When South rebid clubs, that was
the artistic touch. It was designed
to convince the defenders that the
club bid had been no "phoney."
And 1t Is true that when people hear
suit rebid they are not likely to
think of it as being a fake suit.
At that, West missed a bet. Since
he should have expected dummy to
hold the king Of clubs, he might
have doubled six hearts to call on
his partner for a club opening But
West feared that even with q club
trick he could not defeat the six
: heart contract, since North had
shown two-suiter and might very
well have singleton club.
In any event, West did not double,
East opened a spade and the six
heart contract was made. A club
opening, Of course, would have given
the defenders two tricks, defeating
the contract Immediately.

READ THIS FIRST:

Everyone thought Agatha Brown
was an old maid, but she had been
secretaly married for 25 years to
Professor Otto Halder of Western
college. She had left him in World
War I because she learned he was
traitor.
The girl she called her niece,
Clemantine, was really their
daughter. Not even Clemantine
knew it.
Now, in World War II, Agatha
goes back to the college and finds
the professor has been murdered.
He had perfected a radio-controlled
aerial torpedo. Estelle Blossom, a
student who claims she was en-
gagged to marry the professor, ac-
cuses Clemantine of the crime as
the police interview the women
outside the professors dormitory
room.
Agatha goes down the hall to
telephone, is taken prisoner in the
dark by an unseen man, and forced
to accompany him to the base
ment, where he tries to make her
tell him what she has done with
a missing radio tube, last vital
part of the invention the foreign
spies seek.
A blind student discovers Agatha
and comes to her rescue. To help
him she breaks the only electric
light in the basement. He and her
captor face each other in darkness.
NOW go on with the story.
