Written for NEA Service
At the annual banquet held dur
ing the Louisiana State Tournament
at New Orleans, representatives of
the various southeastern units Of
the American Contract Bridge
League discussed formation of a
southeastern conference or branch
Of the League. When this is accom-
plished, an even greater develop
ment in tournament bridge will
take place in the south.
The Louisiana State open pair
championship was won by L. R..
Robertson and George Heath of
Dallas, Tex, and careful play on
today's hand helped them to win
it.
Robertson, the declarer, trumped
the opening heart lead with the
deuce of spades and led the spade
king, East winning. The seven of
spades was returned and Won in
dummy with the eight-spot.
Now most of the d%eclarers
thought this was as good a time
as any to take a discard on the
good king of hearts. They threw
away the deuce of clubs on the
heart king, then took the diamond
finesse-and when it lost, they lost
the contract.
Before %bothering with the dis
card, Robertson cashed the ace and
king of clubs, and when the queen
dropped, he had a marked finesse
with the jack-nine in dummy. One
of the losing diamonds was dis
carded on the jack of clubs and
the other on the king of hearts.
While the odds were very much
against the queen of clubs drop
ping in two rounds, declarer should
not consider it hopeless and as
UNI that the natural discard was
the deuce of clubs. The good play
er explores every possibility that
may exist.

TOP O. THE MORNING

The day with all its choices, good or ill,
Is now beyond recall:
And l am alone with Thee,
To make answer for deed and word and
thought.
Thou dost know ME altogether, but Thou
dOst see my struggles,
Mark my resolutions
Hear my silent prayers in heaven, Thy
dwelling place.
Thy heart is kind, there is forgiveness
with Thee,
It was for men like me that Jesus died.
For His sake, let me know Thy peace to-
night,
And with the morrow make me to be
A new and worthier man.

To do better than break even,
lines flying both two and four-en-
gined craft must average an 20
percent load. If only two-engined
planes are used, 70 percent will
do it.
With this abundance of planes,
domestic lines in the first eight
months of 1916 epualled their total
revenues for 1915. But the gain
was not enough to offset higher

CUT SUGAR Diet
TO ACTUAL Need
BY WILLIAM A.. O'BRIEN. NJ. n

If your children crave suga,
they most likely do so because thew
are not eating a sufficient variety
Of nourishing foods. There is less
desire for sugar when the diet il
varied and abundant.
Refined white sugar is a valus
only for energy, While brown
| sugar, cor syrup, molasses, sor.
gum, maple sugar and syrup con.
tain a small amount of iron and
calcium.
All forms of sugar are readily
digested and assimilated. The
body converts them into glycogen
which it stores in the liver and
muscles for future use. When A
great excess of sugar is eaten
however, it is stored as fat or
excreted by the kidneys.
When foods which contain sl.
gar are eaten, the sugar in the
blood quickly rises, to fall back
to normal in about two hours.
Individuals who perform extra
muscular work often need sugar
between meals, and the need is
supplied from body reserves. I'm.
fortunately, many sedentary per.
cooe o,+ , 1oroo opoo,,p+ A
containing foods; in their case the
excess is stored and not utilized.
Heat is liberated when sugar is
burned. This is the heat which
plants acquired from the suns
energy.
When sugar is eaten the heat
escapes, due to the breaking-down
of sugar into water and carbon
dioxide. The body regulates the
liberation of this heat by adjusting
the process to its own need, and
fever does not result.
Sugars vary in sweetness. For
example, milk sugar is only one
fifth as sweet as cane sugar. Gu
cose, which is found in plants.
fruits and honey, is about three
fourths as sweet as cane sugar.
The fact that sugar in its various
forms is changed into glucose by
the body is not a valid argument
for taking all u sugar in the
form Of glucose, since the body
makes the conversion without diff
ficulty.
1t is also fallacious to believe
that we can increase our energy
output by consuming more glu-
cose. An excess of sugar in the
diet tends to interfere with appe
tie and decreases energy expendi
ture.
Properly-fed children do not
crave candies and sweets. Their
t needs r satisfied by their diet
Q which includes cereals, legumes,
roots, tubers, bulbs, and fruits.
Well-fed children are little in.
terested in fancy desserts. They
e prefer the simpler varieties or

GETTING READY
ny T. ELLIS

I am of those optimistic ones
who do not believe that a thlrd
world war is imminent. Yet think
that preparation for it on the part
Of the individual is the part OF
prudence.
What n would do, where one
would live or flee, what posses
sions one would try to salvage
the part one would play in Ma
tional defense - these and other
allied questions should be soberly
considered, without panic.
More important is ones personal
program for the prevention OF war
The present call is for the armies
of pens to move into action. Care
fully considered letters should be
sent to legislators and to neWspa-
pers. If every newspaper in the
land were to publish daily print
worthy letters upon peace from
its readers, the massed power OF
public opinion would be felt in all
the worlds capitals.
This letter crusade should also
include our domestic problems,
viewed from a tolerant and broth
erly standpoint, with a new world
order eve in mind.
By all means and by any means,
let us make ready for a Hateful
tomorrow.

Following the ceremony, rela-

BRIDES parents. After the bride
had cut the huge TERED wedding
cake, the bridal party was SER
we'd wedding dinner. A thous-

and the notable social event was
attended by guests from many
states including California and
Massachusetts,. Gifts from all
over the United States were so
numerous that it took several
rooms to display them. Mr. and
Mrs. Gomez honeymooned in
Kentucky and then motored to
Boston where they are making
their home.

Jacobs Seeks
DismiseaI OF Suit

Promoter Mikc Jacobs, who
promoted close to 100000 in
his Golfer as a result of the
Louis-Conn exhibition, has asked
the court to dismiss a SANDER
and libel suit against him by
Rep, Donald O'Toole. The Rep.
from Brooklyn, N. Y, had slap
ped a $4,000 suit on Jacobs as
criticism of the promoters con-
duct Of the Louis Conn fight.
Jarobs seeks dismissal Of the
uase on the grounds that the
complaint "does not state facts
sufficient to constitute a cause
of action. The alleged de
famatory words" were supposed
to have been uttered by Jacobs
the day after June goth, accord
ing to Rep, OToole.

Observations

Sorry I was compelled to miss
the program of S. Coleridge-
Taylor Musician Association
Sunday, but from the enthusi-
astic comments of the large
crowd I found when I did get
there, it was decidedly up to
its usual standard. The visit
ing soloist from North Carolina,
Mrs Elizabeth Robinson, I am
told, made a splendid impress
sion and was surrounded by a
galaxy of Boston's best. The
two accompanies of the after
noon, Dr. w A Rhodes and Mr.
Harold Evans, exhibited their
proves as pianists in no mean
manner, well nigh drowning
the soloists' voices so I am told,
though which was the greatest
offender I did not learn. After
all I have said, too, about the
accompanist subordinating his
performance to that of the
singer!
