1t With You" and 1T Happened at
the Inn" probably is inevitable,
since each revolves about family
that is far from the norm, but at
the same time wonderfully human.
The Coupis of the Little's photo
play are a rare lot, slight carica-
lures of French peasants done with
Gallo love and admiration tor them
and their kind
To call the Goupis colorful would
likely be the understatement of the
week. For one thing, they use nick
names rather than names. THE
Emperor" is the eldest member of
the household, though his 106 years
do not rate him many privileges.
Red Hands" is the hunter. so
named because his hands are always
red. The Law" is The Emperor's"
son, who once was a gendarme
"Pinchpenny" is The Laws" son.
and obviously "Tonkin" has
once served with French Colonial
troops and dreams of nothing but
Tonkin. Ten Drops" is the shrewish
hypochondriac. Monsieur" h Is
lived in Paris and Primrose" Is the
pretty girl.
Monsieur" comes on the scene,
sent for so he can marry 'Prim-
rose," at a time when the hectic
Goupi'affairs seem to be reaching a
hectic peak, which may or may not
be a seasonal thing with them.
Almost Immediately on his arrival
in the native countryside he has not
seen in Is years, Monsieur" young
man terrified by thes mere appear
ance of the woods, finds himself
accused of murder and theft. He has
quite time of it, we can assure you,
before he is cleared.
The character in this witty romp
most likely to be taken to audience
hearts is The Emperor" whose only
wish is for the ever-refused glass Of
red wine and biscuit. When he
finally gets the wine, he drinks a
resounding toast to Napoleon. THE
Emperor" can't avoid being a center
for comedy. Early in the film he Is
discovered stone cold on the parlor
floor, is laid out on his bed for q
corpse, only to revive Immediately,
but unable to talk. This is a consid-
cradle tragedy to the household,
"The Emperor" being the only one
who knows the location of the fam
lily treasure and it is one of the
years comedy highlights when three

FARMERS FACE INITIATION

Washington has been warned by
editorial writer's that as labor
raises wages in the cities. farm la
hor will fade away from farms.
Farmers will have to raise wages in
order to compile with the cities.
This will increase the cost of pro-
Guction OF food Naturally. just as
soon as food prices go up. labor
will come in for more wage in
Creases. based upon the cost or
living. SO there's a kind of initiation
that people haven't been figuring
on. Don't get the notion that there
is going to be any quick return to
"normalcy."

The public :. Men and women in

doctors . Merchants and lawyers
-. Telephone subscribers and those
who are waiting for telephone service
-. Telephone company employees :.
The people who will put up the money
for the Bell Systems two billion

ours is part.
The same sort of people as the $780,
900 who have invested their savings
IN the stock of the American Tele-

They're small investors. The aver

OF them is 20. More than half of them
nave held their stock for 10 years or
more. Not one of them holds as
much as one-half of one percent of
the total stock.
lhere you have the answer to where
the moneys coming from.
BUT WHY?
because people have faith in the fu-

enough to give them a reasonable

 ON BRIDGE
BY WILLIAM E. MCKINNEY
 Americas Card AuthOrilty

The game of contract bridge gains increased popularity every year, and lately these has geen a tremendous advance in interest in tournament bridge I believe this will continue because contract bridge is the one game that gives an opportunity to all, regardless of age, to enjoy keen competition with their fellow men and women. Undoubtedly it provides the widest social contacts of any game. Tour nament bridge players know group of people in almost every community in the United States.
 In rubber bridge the first obli- gation is to make the contract. A player never should jeopardize his contract for an overtrick.
 However, in tournament bridge you must always try to make the maximum number of bricks. Max ing contract of four may give you bottom score on the board if everybody else makes five.
 In today,s hand declarer won the opening diamond lead in lulilily, UllCl1 1u4SooCQ ULlC JdSh OA clubs, West winning, Another dia- mond was led and won in dummy The deuce of hearts was played, East put on the seven, declarer the ace, and West turned his king of hearts face down on the table in- dicating that declarer had caught singleton king. Of course he inn mediately turned it over, but de clarer had been warned not to try to make five odd.
 He started to play clubs and let East cash his two high trumps. If West had played the king nor mally, declarer would have had to guess whether or not West also held the queen of hearts. In that case the propery play you'd be to lead a small heart and drop the two adverse hearts together, mak- ing five.
 Do not give your opponents any advantage in tournament bridge. It might do little harm in rubber

 GET SECOND WIND

Athletic training" is largely process of gradual increase in the strength, power or capability of the heart, particularly the right side of the heart, the right ventricle, which pumps blood through the lungs tor removal of its load of carbon dioxide (carbonic acid gas) which is blown off by the lungs and re-oxygenation. The re-oxygenated or purified blood is then returned from the lungs to the left side of the heart to be pumped through the great artery (aorta) and the arterial system throughout the body.
 As the right side of the heart develops the individual begins to get wind, as we commonly say meaning he or she can run a hun dred yards or up a few flights ot stairs without getting quite out of breath or "winded," because his .or her heart has acquired power to draw upon in such emer- gencies. This reserve power 1n the heart of the trained athlete is the identical object of all treatment of patients with valvular heart trouble, although of course other measures are generally necessary as well as graduated exercise in the treatment of valvular trouble.
 Second wind was a familiar phenomenon to youngsters when l
