Commissioners Viii Meet
To Consider Resolution
For Buying Sewerage Uni
LIBERAL PAYMENT
PLAN WOULD MAKE
FWA EXTENSION SYS-
TEN SELF-LIQUIDAT-
ING

A special meeting of the City
Commissioners is scheduled for
this afternoon at $40 o'clock to
consider a resolution that would
authorize Mayor William w. De-
merritt TO sign papers for the pur-
chase of the Federal Works Adj
ministration sewerage system IN
Key West at a cost of 100000,
Acting City Manager Robert
Dopp said that funds for the
purchase would come directly
from rental fees charged for sew
erage connection and that the
project will be self-liquidating.
Liberal Pay Plan
Under a liberal payment plan
instituted by the FWA, Dopp ex-
planned, payments previously
paid by Key West for rental of
the sewerage system would be
applied for its purchase. He said
that complete ownership of the
system would pass to the city in
about Is years.
Purchase would include two
sewerage disposal plants, sewer
age collection lines, lift pumping
stations, outpull lines and the
land on which they are con-
structed, Dopp asserted.
Installed Years Ago
Plans for the FWA Key West
sewerage system were made up
in November 1912 and the sys-
tenn was installed about four
years ago.

Have You a Problem? Consult
Mary Hdworth's S Mail

Spect for each others character
in the main; and then finally
met and reconciled with sponta-
neous affection and misty laugh
ter over early impetuosity.
In your case, it seems, you
subjected your wife to malicious
cruelty. which she endured as
long as she could and then de-
parted; and probably was obliged
or felt driven by fear-to con-
ceal her whereabouts from you
in self-defense, lest you continue
to persecute her by various de-
vices. Therefore, it is my opinion
that you haven't a ghost OF a
chance of reconciling with her
even if you met her face TO
face and she were greatly IN
need of a helping hand.
Wherever she may be. let's
hope she is well and happy; that
she has completely outgrown
memories of the wretched time
you gave her. And as for your
desire TO atone-that must con-
sist. in any event, in bona fide
reform of character so that all
your thoughts and deeds hence
forth are good. 1t does not con-
sist in falsely seeking forgive
ness of past misdeeds from one
former victim. NJ. II.

ployed in a civil service position

Your recommendation will be

DEAR r. B.:
The ancient recipe for rabbit
stew always began, First catch
YOUR rabbit" And that should
be the order of procedure here.
A mans intuition doesn't
amount TO much as a rule. Hit
ler's was a case in point.
The girl may reciprocate your
worshipful sentiment or she may
not. And my advice is, propose

mond. She may say yes, right

be quite gallant to whip out a
ring then and there. That would
smack of disturbing conceit. 1t
would deprive her of the pleas
ure and conventional right of
planning-or helping to choose
the ring she wants, within
Vour means.
About cost: l don't know
what you have in mind, but con.
sidering your. neat margin OF
savings and the fact that a'fiaw-
less diamond bought from a re-
liable house is permanently
worth its purchase price,
think you might spend between
$3.50 and $500 and never regret

for quality and honest dealing.

Water Regularly

There are two ways 10 water
from the bottom. One is 10 put
water in the saucer under the
pot and add to it as the earth
inside absorbS it.
The other is TO put the pot
containing the plant inside
second larger (and perhaps
more ornamentaD container
and fill the space between the
pots with peat moss. Keeping
the peat always moist will take
care of the watering within the
inner pot.
Given light. cool air and
plenty of moisture, the plant
will bloom on and on. But
there will come a time when
the buds cease to form and the
leaves turn yellow. Reduce
watering gradually so in about
two weeks the pot is dry. Keep
the soil absolutely dry for two
weeks.

Then clean the debris from
the top of the CORN and dust
the CORN tip thus exposed with
busting sulphur. Put the pot on
its side in cool basement and
leave it until late May. Keep
Just enough water on the soil
so the CORN stays plump.
In late May move the pot
outside, still on its side, to a
shady spot. In August new
leaves will start. Repot in a
half-inch larger pot, using
rotted cow manure with rich
soil. Keep on a shady porch.

The bidding:
South West North East
IA Pass "a Pass
3A Pass - Pass
Pass Pass
Opening lead, ten of hearts.
In the practice OF legerdemain,
the technique of the magician is to
engage the attention of the audi
ence in what he is doing with one
hand, while with the other he per-
forms, quite unseen, whatever la
bors are called for by the particular
act of magic. The same technique
may sometimes be employed at the
card table. In today's hand South,
the declarer, succeeded in getting
the opposition's attention centered
around one suit to the complete
neglect of the other.
The bidding is recorded as it took
place, though some players will not
lend their complete approval. 1t will
be seen that there are four top card
tricks "off" the hand which imme-
diately diSqualifies the contract for
any seals of approval.
However, the hand is so construct
ed that it is somewhat difficult to
keep from gliding into the game
contract. The first round of bidding
is normal and South, I think, Is
justified in making one more try
despite his partners Indifferent re-
sponse. Some players would show
the diamond suit in the hope that
such action might lead to a success
full no-trump contract, or at least
help partner to determine whether
the hand fits or not. However,
Souths choice on this hand turned
out to be happier one North
should really pass the three spade
bid because he has so little playing
strength. The fifth trump has a
STANCE psychological effect on most
players. On hands like this the fifth
trump is many times just SO much
surplus.
Vest led the 10 of hearts. East |
won with the ace and returned the
suit. Declarer went up with the
king and Immediately played the
jack of hearts. 1t was plain that |
the contract was doomed to failure
unless the enemy's attention could
be diverted from the club suit when
the ace of trumps was driven out. |
So, on the jack of hearts declarer
discarded diamond from dummy.
When West took the ace of trumps,
he was mindful of the speed with |
which declarer had disposed of one
of dummy's diamonds and conclud-
ed that that was the weak spot in |
the hand. He therefore shifted to
the 10 of diamonds. This was taken
by declarer with the queen. The
trumps were drawn and two of
dummy's club discarded on South
good diamonds.
West had been thrown off the
scent. Whether or not he should
have been is another story. But
South could do no more.
