A split second lost at trick one,
proved to be the margin by which
this match was lost in the Mixed
Team Of Four Champio onship at the
Nationals in Chicago.
The bidding is right out of the
textbook. East and South passed and
West had normal shaded third
hand bid. 1t is poor tactics to pass
hands of this type in third position.
The advantage of suggesting an
opening lead to partner in the likely
event that North becomes declarer
is too great to be passed up. Despite
Indifferent support for the other
major, North's take-out double is
proper The hand Is too good for
a mere overcall, even though vul-
nerable. East's bid Of one spade
is not for the purpose of showing
weakness" but is made in the spirit
of this is the only chance Ill have
to speak"
South, having II points. point
above an average hand, concluded
that his side had a splendid chance
for game. in view Of partners double
and so indicated by making q jump
in no-trump. North, in order to
check up on the nature OF partners
response, and to warn that his
double was to a certain extent dis
tributional, bid 3 diamonds, but
South with all four suits stopped
proceeded to 3 no-trump.
The nine of spades was opened and
South with the idea of building
up second spade trick in hurry,
played low from dummy. This was
his undoing. East won with the
king and returned the nine of hearts.
Declared covered with the ten, West
won with the jack and cleared the
suit by conceding one trick to the
declarer. In the forlorn hope that
East held the king of diamonds,
declarer late in the play took the
diamond finesse for his ninth trick
but failed.
It should have been clear to
South that he could not afford to
lose trick early in the play; that
is before the diamond suit was es-
tablished. A second spade trick was
of little consequence. Declarer had
tricks to burn after the diamond
king was dislodged.
When my teammate John r.
Crawford played the hand, he lost
no time going up with the ace of
spades at trick one and trying the
diamond finesse. When this lost, a
spade was continued. East won
the king and returned heart, but
the defense was held to a diamond,
a spade and two hearts.

for the defective hearing.
Unnecessary injuries to the ear
can be prevented, says the State
Board of Health, if children are
taught to keep things out of the ear
canal, to observe certain precau-
tiOns when swimming and to take
good care of the ears during colds
and other diseases. A hard in
strument should never be used for
cleaning the ear canal. The ex-
cess wax that is secreted in the
ear canal moves toward the outer
shell where it may be removed by

VIII Improve Church
School Curriculum

know what each other are doing
and they will be enabled to plan
together intelligently and effective
" the lesson and study periods in
the church school. An organic part
OF the curriculum will be the regu-
lar gathering of both parents and
teachers for conferences at the
start Of each section of the curri-
culum.
Another feature of the curricu-
lum is the publishing of richly IL
Illustrated books to accompany the
periodical reading matter. Through
a recently developed fuOrescent
technique the color illustrations
in the books are rendered excep-
tiOnally vivid. Careful attention
has been given to accuracy in the
details Of dress, architecture, i'm
plements, furniture, household ar
ticles, ETC., Of Bible times.
The new curriculum will be grOuD
graded from kindergarten through
the senior and young peoples de-
partments Of the church school.
Presses began to roll April 26,
on the new curriculum printed mat
ter, and by midsummer there was
ready for shipment for the fall
quarter of this years course of
study, a total Of 488,0OO bound
books, 5000 sets Of teaching pic
lures, 215,0O0 activity packets, 49,
600 WOrkbOOks, and 202,O teacher
parent magazines. The distribution
viii involve the shipment Of about
100000 tons of material annually.
The curriculum will involve an in
yestment by the church of more
than $2,OOO,OOO.
BY way of preparation for the
Introduction Of the curriculum the
Board Of Christian Education of the
Presbyterian Church in the u. S. A.
has sponsored special conferences
throughout the church since last
January. At these conferences pas
tors and church school leaders were
made acquainted with the curricu-
lum materials through lectures, ex-
hibits, literature, and special films.
More than 40 special conferences
are being held across the country
during September to acquaint
leaders in church school work as
to how to service the new curricu-
lum through special conferences in
presbyteries and local churches.
These leaders will meet with par
ents and teachers to preVieW the
lessons in the new curriculum.
The response to the curriculum
has been most encouraging, even
beyond expectation, according to
officials of the Board of Christian
Education. Already the reputation
of the curriculum materials and
methods has spread and a number
of churches in cOmmuniOns other
than Presbyterians are adopting
the new curriculum.
DR.. Paul Calvin Payne, executive
secretary Of the Board of Christian
Education, has been the guiding
genius in the development of the
new curriculum. The direction of
production has been in the hands
of DR.. James d. Smart, associate
secretary of the Division of Home.
Church, and Community, of the
board, and editOr-in-chief of the
new curriculum. Rev. T. Raymond

motion, of the board, has had gen
eral supervision Of promotion.

Whenever the nose is under water
the breath should be continuously
and gently expelled through the
nose to keep the nasal passages

the pressure of water from the

started making eyes at Harold Stassen, a
"me-too" carbon copy of Dewey both before

Stop and Think
First!
BY Ruth Taylor

There is one and only one
way to stop any and all hate
stories, rumors, and malicious
gossip - whether they be di-
rected at political parties or
individuals, at labor or indus
try, or at groups charactized
by nationality, race, or re-
ligion.
1t is a job that is up to you
and me, to each and every
one of us who believes in the
brotherhood of man and the
democratic way of life. No
one can do it for us, We can't
alibi nor shirk the task.
"If you can't write it and
sign it - don't say it,. should
be our slogan. l cribbed that
sentence from an article writ
ten by Robert Butler, ship
builder in Duluth, because I
think it is just plain horse
sense. 1t is easy, practical, and
what is more to the point, it
will do the job.
OF course if people adhered
to it, there would be many
moments of silence - which
we could all survive without
hardship. Most people talk
too much anyway, l know /
do.
Test the idea yourselg. l
have found that good way
to counteract rash statements
is to say, to the speaker,
That's very interesting. Let
me write it down. l know you
won't mind if l quote you,
but | want to be sure l get it
Just straight" Well, what
happens is that the final state
ment isn't even a reasonable
facsimile of the original.
Listen to your own conver-
sation some time. How much
of it would you be willing to
sign? Precious little, l reckon.
If you aren't willing to back
up your own charges, don't
make them. If you aren't will
ling to stand by what you say,
don't say it.
Put that slogan into prac-
tice and the result will be that
you will make only accurate
statements. You will not ex-
aggerate. You will not show
prejudice. You will not allow
your personal feelings to color
your speech.
And what will that mean to
you? You viii develop a re-
putation for accuracy, for To-
gic, for reasoned speech -
because you will tend to un-
derState, rather than over
state. You know how you
judge the opinions of others,
how you respect the man who
is always proven right. You
may not be as sensational a
conversationaliSt, but you will
be one to whom people will
listen and whom they will
qpote because they know you
are dependable.
If you can't write it and
sign it - don't say it," Let's
make that our personal mot
to. 1t really works.
